Six Years in State Prison.

Thinking that no business would be
done in the criminal side of the Superior
court until 10 80 or later, Tuesday, many
spectators We're dilatory in entering.
Great was their surprise, therefore, when
informed that the court had opened at 10
and adjourned, at 10 Is, until Wednes-
day morning. It was understood that
the Newtown burglars would be brought
up again and a long, though not tedious,
trial was expected.
However, after the counsel had ar
ranged few preliminaries, the prison
ers, Michael OsDonnell, Thomas Casey,
James Bolger and Charles Butts. were
called up and asked if they desired to
| change their plea. Each signified that
he did and pleaded guilty to two indict-
ments, breaking into the Savings bank
and Mr. Minott Augur's market. Judge
Torrance promptly sentenced each to
three years in State prison on each count,
six years in all. As no further cases
were then ready for trial, court was adj
journed. None of the prisoners appear
ed much affected by the sentence. These
men had so long and so freely piled their
nefarious trade that they grew to think
themselves invincible. They might not
always succeed in their efforts to obtain
dishonest wealth, but they, old and ex-
perienced men, could never be caught.
especially by officers of the country
towns where their most frequent visits
were made and to whom they elegantly
referred as "chumps' and ''hayseeds. .
But, like many better men, their reason
ing was fallacious and they were at last
captured, tried and convicted.
