Hours of Police Duty.

Since the burglary of last Friday there
has been talk of changing the hours of
police duty. Heretofore, Chief Thomp-
son has been on a portion OF the after
noon and part of the night. The bur-
glaries are all committed after midnight
and it was deemed advisable to have the
chief out all night, making regular
rounds, and depend upon the specials for
day work. 1t seems that this has been
done and The TIMES hopes that breaking
into stores is done for this fall.
In depending upon specials it would be
well for them to wear their badge always
in sight. Some of the spirits which
cause trouble have wholesome fear for
the authority of the law as shown in a
police body. 1t would, without doubt,
help the law and order part of the COM
munity greatly to put the badges on the
outside of the coat.

than were sold in last seasons course,
which is easily accounted for when it is
remembered that this course gives a
third more than was then promised for
the same money. Four hundred tickets
must be sold, however, to support the
course, and they are now about rs short
of this number. 1t is in order for all
lovers of the better class of entertain
ments to help boom matters that the
project may speedily secure its proper
backing. Orders left at Bosworth's will
be credited as correctly as through any
of the canvassers and we hope next week
to announce successful completion of the

Praise for Postmaster Cannon,

Postoffice inspectors have been visiting
the principal offices in the state and this
is what they say about Bellows Falls:
At the Bellows Falls postoffice it is crafty
ing to note that Postmaster b. Cannon, jr.,
understands the value of courtesy as an i'm
portant element of serving. He thinks there
is no good reason why the people should not
expect gentlemanly service from public Off
Gals as well as from those employed in ordin-
airy ranks of business. Though very much
hampered by unnecessary obstacles, Post
master Cannon, has in less than a year, made
several marked Improvements and has more
good ideas in store for the benefit of his
patrons.
This is but just recognition of faith
full and efficient officials work.

The following is told of Judge be-
fore whom a man was being tried for
stealing gold watch from a woman
as she was entering bus. The man
declared the watch was his, and the
woman was mistaken in identifying it
as hers. Suddenly the Judge said:
" Where's the key?"
The prisoner fumbled in his pockets,
and said he must have left it at home.
The Judge asked him if he wound the
watch frequently with the key, and he
said " Yes"
Then key was procured, watch and
key were handed to the prisoner, and
he was told to wind the watch. He
opened the case but could not find any
place to use the key, because the
watch was keyless one. The sentence
was five years.-London Tit-Bits.

SARA AND HER DOGS.
Three CANNES Cost Her n Good
Deal of TraubIe and Money.

Sara Bernhardt was wrathy a few
days ago, and positively refused to
make the trip 10 australia. rs is
we'll known, Sara is possessed Of
three dogs that she values highly and
which accompany her wherever she
goes. Now the Colonies have a law
which compels every imported dog
to be placed in quarantine for three
months before il can be permitted to
land, and when Sara heard Of this she
became indignant and wanted to turn
back to her beloved Paris. Finally it was
suggested that by the expenditure Of
81 900 the dogs might be landed, and
the following program was decided
on: A physician will be secured at
Auckland, from thence to Sydeny con-
tinue in constant attendance on her
pets. He will then make out and
sign a certificate OF their being in
perfect health, and by means OF this
it is believed that the Sydney authori-
ties may be placated and a landing
gained for the dogs.

senator E.lmun.is.

The true inwardness OF the resigna-
tion OF Senator Edmunds has leaked
out. 1t is chargin. There was a
time when his word was law with his
Republican colleagues in the Senate,
but at the last session his suggestions
were not only ignored, but he was
actually snubbed on every occasion by
majority OF the Republican Senators,
and in such ways as to make it plain
that his powers over them was gone
never to return. That was more
than the old Legislative tyrant could
stand, so he resolved to go himself
to escape further modification.

all Indians were hostile, Mr.. Hearst

tors, except the future Senator, were
mounted on horses. He was on re-
tired army mule, and soon found him
self left in the rear. The Indians were
on his trail and things began to look
serious, when he called out to his
rapidly disappearing companions:
Hold on, boys; there only few OF
them. We needn't be afraid"
Just then the mule scented the APP
preaching Indians, and with a wild
snort started out at a gait that soon
left the horsemen far behind. When
Hearst was about a quarter of mile
in advance he turned in his saddle
and yelled at the top OF his voice:
Hurry up, boys; you'll get scalped.
There's more'n hundred OF them. -
