in addition to the vacating of premises
on account of the decline in business,

to prophecy concerning the probability
of a good run of fish early in the COM
ing season. They all agree in believing
that between April 20 and May 20 the
salmon will come into the river in i'm

theory about the four-year run. In 1856,
during the two months strike. the fish
were particularly plentiful, again in
1890 the same rush was repeated and it
is looked for again in 1894.

THE BURGLARS LEFT THE HOUSE.
But Seemed to Have Left Little Of the
Contents,

Attleboro, Mass.,4 April 27.-A most
successful burglary was discovered in
Hebronville this afternoon, when Mrs.
Sarah Warren and her daughter, Mrs.
J.F. Thompson, returned from NewYo rk
where they spent the winter. The. place
was looted by the thieves. Its situation
is in the. heart of the village, and a part
of it is occupied. The interior of the
residence was iii confusion, and clothing
was strewn about the various rooms. The
missing property includes CARPETS, taken
from the floor by the thieves, ornaments,
banquet lamp, four parlor lamps, four
oil paintings, all the bedding ana linen,
bed clothing, glass and plain ware, solid
silver spoons, forks, knives and castors,
several silk dresses and all sorts OF
household goods, enough to more than
fill good sized express wagon. Investi-
cation by the police has resulted in a
clue which may lead to the arrest of the
thieves. The work must have been done
Thursday night. The beds had been
used, which shows. that the men who
did the job were aware of the family's
absence. A man was hired to look after
the property, but be did not discover
anything out of the way on his last VS.
it to the place. Persons living IN the
other part of the house have heard no
peculiar sounds or detected any strang-
res in the neigh borhood since Mrs. War
rem went away. The property stolen
was worth about $1,000.

VACCINATION BY WHOLESALE
How Doctors and Policemen Descended ON
q Brooklyn Block

New York, April 27.-One of the larg-
est vaccinating raids ever made by the
Brooklyn board of health was carried
through last night. Sixty men, accom-
panied by some so policemen, took pos
session of the block bounded by Myrtle
avenue. Linden and Grove streets, and
Wyekof avenue, and the entire locality
was quarantlned.
The doctors were detailed, two to each
of the big fiat houses with which that
section of the city is filled, and then
the fun commenced. The people cid
not like the idea of being vaccinated,
and they showed it instantly.
In less than ten minutes the whole
block was IN state of confusion, wom-
en- arguing with the doctors, children
crawling out OF the way, and policemen
struggling with those who were foolish
enough to resist.
Several Of the women who locked
their doors and refused to be inocuiated,
had their apart ments quarantined. Two
doctors hastily vacated one fiat on Wyck-
off avenue, five minutes after they had
entered They had been persuaded to
leave or feel the effects of pals of hot
water. A policeman bobbed UP there,
and the doctors were more successful.
The doctors were lard at work at II
O'Clock, and by that time had used near
ly 1000 vaccine points. One man who
sent for his family doctor found that
the police would not allow the physic-
ian to enter his house. The doctor pro-
nounces the proceeding high-handed
outrage.
AS the result of the raid made in the
same precinct ON Tuesday night, it is
said that some of those vaccinated are
decidedly bad symptoms, their.
arms swelling to sucn a size as to por-
tend very serious effects.

sCooPED ALL THE CASH.
while the Cashier was Chatting with
.es Pleasant Young Man.

Thompsonville, Conn.,, April 27.- A
clever bank robbery at r. E. & r. E.
Spencer's private bank in broad day,
light yesterday, is believed to have been
the work of New York "sharpers.
Shortly before noon. a carriage was
driven up to the sidewalk in front of
the bank by stylishly dressed young
man. At his request a bystander called
out the senior partner, who was alone in
the bank at the time.
Mr.. Spencer engaged in conversation
with him concerning some Investments.
His back was turned to the building
and he did not see another young fellow
slip into the bank. Pefsons passing
by noticed him, but Mr.. Spencer being
in sight they thought nothing of the in
cdent After an absence of about half a
minute, be came out, but during that
time he had jumped over the railing,
reached the open cash drawer and safe,
and "seeoped" all the money in sight,
amounting to about $780, He took
everything, even silver change, stuffed
his pockets, walked ont passing Mr..
Spencer within foot, and turned the
first corner.
The young fellow in the carriage closed
his conversations, exchanged a pleasant
parting word and drove off in the same
direction. Cashier Spencer quickly dis
covered his loss and gave the alarm. A
local officer sprang into the first availa-
ble vehicle and dashed off in pursuit,
but the swindlers had half an hour the
best of it, and there was no telephone
service in the direction they went,
A few miles above .Thompsonville they
accosted a boy and hired. him to drive
the carriage to Springfield. No one wit
slessed this transaction, and it was not

picked up:to oppose them,made up of some o
the old Murphy Balsams and some of the
extra men of the Portlands. For want of
better name we have called them the
Murphy Balsams. Winkler and Casey were
their battery and Carey played first base,
and played it well. Madden was at second
and had nothing particular to do but hit
the ball and get runs, as usual. The game
was slow, but closely contested. For three
innings the score was tie at seven. Then
in the ninth the Portlands got two more.
The Murphy Balsams came sup in the last
half of the ninth. Woodbury. hit the ball as
usual Che hit it the previous four times for
hits but flied out to Mackey on second.
Carey then got first on wild throw by
Flavin, Edgar got his base on balls, ad-
vancing Carey to second. McGovern
knocked out a splendid hit for two bases
and Carey and Edgar came home. Winkler
brought home McGovern with hit and the
game was won by an earned run.
Dan Mahoney distinguished himself as
usual behind the bat and at second. He
made a couple of double plays doing most of
the work himself. Following is the detailed
score:
