DEM, who lives over Eleventh street

mer In his possession, and upon finding
that on, of them answered the descrip-
tion Of Mr. Fishers Ratchet, took the boy
In cuRtOdy. He informed the officer that
the hatchet was given to him by another
boy named William Crowley, and he too
was arrested.
Crowley was arraigned before Judge
Ball this morning, when Dem testified
thas they all belonged to a club, which
bas a rendezvous or club house near
Eleventh street bridge. The witness,
upon being asked where he obtained the
BANNER found in his possession, un-
blushiugly admitted that he stole 1t from

to anything woman may say to them,
and are very apt to curse her If she re.
quests them to stay off the fences or out

tion to push the matter until the gang is

The Smyrna Times says; Thomas Nc
Lane died at his residence, near Taylor's
Bridge, last week, at the age of 63 years.
He was noted trapper, as was his father
before him, making this neatly the only
occupation OF his life. 1t is computed by
those who knew him that he caught from
first to last 10000 muskrats and 80 tons
OF swapping turtles. He had caught as
high as 5000 muskrats during a winter,
and would again drop down TO 1900 or
below. Besides these, be shot great
many black ducks that would come on
the marsh to feed, and in former years
often bagged otter, mink and other wild
animitls.
