CHARGED WITH BURGLARY.
Alphonso Hunt Arresterday BY omcer
stevens.

Officer Charles A. Stevens went to
Peaks Island yesterday morning and
arrested Alphonso Hunt, young man 10
years of age. Hunt is charged with
burglary committed at Peaks last sum-
mer. Along the last week of July,
or the first week of August, thieves en-
tered tent where some young men were
camping. Arthur l.. Merry, son OF A.
L. Merry, was one of the campers mem
toned, and at that time he missed two
pairs of trousers,.a shirt. a revolver, two
meerschaum pipes and a pair of shoes.
Soon after this robbery had occurred,
young Hunt cleared out. He went into
the woods. At night he would sleep in
barns, and in the daytime would enter
gardens for eatables. He lived in this
manner for week when he came to the
city and stayed at sailors boarding
house for a day or two, and then walked
to Old Orchard and from there went to
Boston. The boy remained away from
home for weeks, thus causing strong
suspicious to arise that he was the one
who purloined Merry's property. Tues
day night Hunt came down from Bos-
ton on the boat, and the police hearing
of it at once took means to arrest him.

The young man confessed his guilt and
said that since his departure from home
he had worked on a coaster. He will

fraudulent repr esentations in regard to the
house and its income the previous year de-
MED that he made any such statements. He
testified that he said nothing about the

Ter, who owned it and ran it for two years
after it was built in 1890, did profitable
business in those years and she could go out
to Old Orchard and see him, and that she
did go and Interview him.
AS to the second count in the writ which
charges trespass by putting up a sign that

of John Y. McKane. ex-boss Of Gravesend,
who is now in Sing Sing prison. was opened
in tho municipal building, Brooklyn, this
morning by the board of assessors, and te
the great surprise and CONSERVATION OF al
it was empty.
The Brooklyn authorities have been al
work for three months trying to get posses
sion of the safe and the books and papers
supposed to be locked therein and expected
to show conc lusively whether Mckane is be-
hind in his accounts with the town.
McKaue signed an order few days age
allowing the assessors to open the safe, and
this morning was the time fixed for the ex.
animation of the safe to begin. About

Memphis, Tenn, November 15.-Reports
from the forest fires in this vicinity show
that while the loss of property is not great
considering the extent of territory covered.
the loss of life exceeds expe Citations.
Within fifteen miles of Memphis, three
lives have been lost by fire in the past two
days, and there arc rumors of a fearful
burning in Arkansas where five lives we're
lost.
These five bodies were found in the St.
Francis bottom, all within a quarter of a
mile of each other. 1t is thought they are
the remains of ga party of hunters from
Texas, who went into that country last
week. The fatalities in this county were
peculiarly distressing.
Fannie Woods, an aged negIess, had her
dress ignited as she fed IRON a burning
house and she ran surrounded by the flames
till she fell dead.
Pitt Roy, herd boy. ran into his father
house to save some property. The house
collapsed and he was pinned in and burned
to death before many spectators.
