ALL ABOUT A WATCH.

On Saturday William Freeland of Dan- bury was arrested charged with being an
 accomplice of John McArdle of Danbury
 in the stealing of watch from Wilson Tyrrell on August 26. Both cases were continued until Monday, when the par ties appeared before Justice Edson Hayes for trial. Attorney E. o. Hull appeared for the prosecution and Attorney c. w.. Murphy of Danbury for the accused.
 Wilson .Tyrrell, AlonZo Swords and Os- car Tonkins were the witnesses for the prosecution and the witnesses for the &C., cused were themselves. Briefly the evi- dence offered by the prosecution was that Freeland and McArdle met Tyrrell oppo- site the shop of John Benedict and took Tyrrell in to ride and while between that place and the school house, McArdle snatched the watch from his person and taking portion of the chain with it.. Evidence was also offered to show that McArdle was aided and encouraged by Freeland. The accused admitted taking Tyrrell in to ride but denied the taking of the watch. The evidence offered was deemed by the justice sufficient to war rant him in finding probable cause and both of the accused were bound over to the criminal superior court under bonds of $500 each. Failing to give bonds, they were taken to the Danbury jail by Deputy Sheriff Hayes and Constable George H. Lyon. There has been con- siderable petty thieving about here for a few weeks past and it is hoped that the experience of these two men may serve to deter others, if any there be, who have mind to obtain possession of property without giving therefore an equivalent.

GIVE FEM A GOOD SCHOOL BUILDING.

GIVE FEM A GOOD SCHOOL BUILDING.
 The last school meeting of the consol. dated districts resulted in the complete
 overthrow of all progress that had been
 made towards building a new school house. The opposition elements rallied
 their entire force, springing surprise
 upon the more progressive and liberal
 minded citizens of the district, and sac- ceeded in carrying a vote to postpone ac-
 6lon one year. It was very short-sight- ed proceeding and one whic h in the end. IS likely to prove very expensive one for all concerned By law the district
 must have school, but as it does not own even site for one, "Neither town or state money can be used for it's support ; so says, our town treasurer. And it may be necessary to make an individual tax to cover the whole expense. The
 financial pinch in the outside world evidently was too great scare for the tlmld ones, and they only looked at the matter in the light of a present burden forgetting that every substantial im- proyement made in a town, is that much benefit to property at large. Nothing helps build town better or more sub. stantlally than good school houses. There has been enough of following the old rut here. The age is one of push en- terprise, and progress and only those who grasp the sitration and keep pace with the times, can hope to succeed. Let the town bury the fossil element which has been so long dominant here. There is no further use for it. Let this last act be it's obituary. With year of grace. given, in which to present the sub. lect fairly to the public, opinion should become so thoroughly enlightened that when the matter of a new school house IS again taken up, there will be no such word as failure, but good, substantial, roomy building erected in a desirable locality.
