FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS.

A few weeks since one of your cor respondents had an article in THE BEE in regard to the absence of numerous articles from the premises of various citizens of this place, and if our limited observation of the state of affairs, as a result of said article, has given us cor rect idea of the situation we must say that it stirred up a Jumbo1ike hornets nest. There is an old saying (and it is a truism) that when an article appears in the public print, criticising misdeed perpetrated ny some member of the com
 munity, and no names are mentioned, the person who makes the most noise over it is pretty apt to be the one who is hit the hardest. As that article claimed, as to the one who ssborrowedo at least most of the articles, named, it was tacit- ly understood by everyone who 1t was, and the lapse of time has not caused anyone to think any differently. But a new phase of the matter has come to light. It is Illustrative of the ease with which an entirely unscupulous person will perjure himself and direct suspicion to another in order to be thought extra honest, smart, etc., himself. It seems that certain man took some articles from different neighbor's premises, con- cealed them, and, after the lapse of a

The special library meeting on Tues day night was well attended. President Charles s. Platt presided. The meeting was called by the trustees, who wished more power under the vote, passed at the previous meeting. The trustees recommended that the canvassers ap- pointed in the several districts to receive new subscribers be given free subscrip- tion to the library. A vote was finally passed to this effect, provided the can vasser received two or more new sub- scribers. It was also voted to give a prize of g to the person securing the largest number of subscribers. The question of changing the rate charged to the summer visitors was discussed, but as no reference was made in the call to changing the bylaws, no action was taken.
