Burgled the Beer.

The room of the liquor sheriffs, it is
we'll known, is located in the basement
of the county side of the City building,
under the county treasurer's office The
room has barred windows looking on the
rear court and side alley. The door to
the room is an ordinary hard wood door
fastened with spring lock. During
Thursday night thieves who had two
inch auger with them bored through the
door in three places. Quite large hole
was thus made and by inserting very
small hand the lock could be reached
and opened. The job must have been
done by some one who knew this door to
be fastened with a spring lock. A num-
Der of bottles of beer and whiskey were
taken, and several jugs of stuff piled in
the corridor to take away, but probably
the burglars were frightened and found
they couldn't take them out of the build
ing unobserved This is the second time
the room has been robbed.

Is This Man simmons and white?

Is This Man Simmons and WHITE:
A man is in the custody of the police
and will be brought before the court this
morning, whose case may prove interest
ing. He claims to be Robert T.W White Of
New York, and says he is on his way to
St. Johnsbury, Vermont. But he is
arrested ON the charge that he is J. A.
Simmons and that on November he
registered at the Preble house under that
name and three days later went off with
out paying his board. He was arrested
at the suggestion of Mr.. Redonnett, clerk
at the Preble house. Happening to be
in the West End hotel yesterday, he saw
man whom he identified as Simmons.
He spoke to the man and remarked that
he had bill against him. The man
denied ever having been at ssthe Preble
house. Mr.. Redonnett begged the mans
pardon, but went to the nearest police
man, Officer Massure. The officer tele-
phoned to Deputy Sterling and was ln-
structed to bring the man in, which he
did. At the police station the man said
his name was Robert t. White of New
York, but Mr.. Costello and Mr.. Redon-
nett, of the Preble house, both positive
ly identified him as the man who regis
tered as J. A. Simmons at their hotel. A
warrant was procured and the man was
locked up. He says he can prove his
identity and that he will employ counsel
to defend himself. He is about twenty
five years of age, we'll dressed and cool
appearing. He will not talk much about
himself,

At the Portland post office, $4,000
Colum bian stamps of all denominations
have been received and placed on sale,
the old stamps being Withdrawn until
these are disposed of. Purchasers of
stamps are obliged to take the big ones
and there is much grumbling in conse-
quence. One large corporation bought
$500 worth of stamps and got all Col
umbians, being obliged to send an ex-
press wagon after them, it is said, on
account of their great bulk. When the
government disposes of all the Columbian
stamps now on hand then the red stamps
will again be placed on the market.

The Boston Globe.
It is understood that if the owners of
the Globe Theatre property do not see fit
to rebuild it as theatre John Stetson
will build theatre in the city. He said
Wednesday that he knew of several sites
which he could secure, and he thought
it very lik ely that he might take one of
them, as he does not care to go out of
business. Mr.. Stetson says that he does
not intend to try to hire another Boston
theatre in which to carry out his engage
ments for this season. In regard to the
fact that he carried no insurance, he has
stated philosophically.
sI have been there at the Globe for
eighteen years and never paid insurance.
The house burned down Monday, and I
lost $3.50, OOO In my opinion, if / had
paid premiums through those eighteen
years, | would today have been more out
of pocket That is the reason that am
smiling now and am not much worried.
I do not consider it a loss, considering

The strike which has been in force on
nearly all OF the western railroad lines
tor week past has been successful in
stopping al, freight traffic on the II. & d.
line, the agents of the company getting
orders the tirst OF the week to receive no
freight tor shipment. and the embargo is
still on. The night passengers were
run regularly up to Wednesday, when
they we're discontinued, and at present
only the day passenger trains, one each
way, are being run. The greatest and
about the only disaffection among the
railroad men on this end OF the division
has been shown by the firemen who have
gone out in body, and for the engines
that are being run the officials OF the
road and others who can be picked up
are pressed into the service, Road
masters Phalen and Nelson having to
lend hand in the cab during the week :.
While no particular distress has as yet
been felt in this locality on account OF
the partial suspension Of traffic much in
convenience and annoyance is experience
ed daily.

II the editor of the Review, for in
stance, should be mayor at the present
time, when sundry and divers conditions
OF affairs are said to exist, what holy
fit of vir.uous Indignation would seize
the moral flaw and order' organ of this
burg. 1t makes an awful sight OF differ
ence, however, who happens to be
mayor Review
For the edification of our friend we
will say that the flaw and order organ
as he chooses to style this paper, is we'll
aware that "sundry and divers conditions
not of wholesome character do exist,
and they largely exist through the In
fiuence OF those like the editor OF the
Review who believe that they are "nec-
essary evils" to add "prosperity' to the
town. As far as the present mayor is
responsible for these conditions he will
receive no sympathy, support or tolera-
tan from the 'law and order organ" or
its editor. The recent opening up OF
several illigitmate Joints bodies no good
to the law abiding people of Milbank.
The saloon, no matter what form it takes,
whether it be that of licensed saloon,
the more pretentions drug store or the
despicable blind pig, is an enemy to
society at large and the home IN parllcu-
lar. 1t can exist 10 any of these forms
IN this state only as law-breaker and
an outlaw and is subject at any moment
to feel the penalty of the statutes which
it defies. Public sentiment may Tor q
time put up with the nuisance and ap.
pear blind to the consequences, but soon,
or or later there will be an awakening
and those who have apparently been
successful in evading and defying the
law will learn to their sorrow that JUS
tice does not eternally sleep. When II
comes to fight between the home and
the out -lawed liquor vender. We feel con
tident that there will be plenty OF man
hood in Milbank to vindicate the formel
and crush The blind pig to its death
The sooner it is done the easier will be
the task.
