victed Of Burglary at Wausau.
Wausau. Wis, Nov. 16.lSpecial.l-
George Thorpe, who has become noted
through his connection with Henry La
mont, now awaiting trial for murder at
Superior, had his trial in the circuit
court Thursday on a charge of burglary
committed in a store at Edgar, July %.
The principal witness was John Dolegal,
now serving a three-year sentence for
being Thorpe's confederate, having
pleaded guilty August II. He testified
that Thorpe planned the burglary and
broke into the store window, then opened
the door to admit him. The jury was
charged at 8 o'clock yesterday morning
and returned a verdict at II last night,
finding Thorpe guilty. The fact that
Thorpe broke jail last summer had much
to do with convicting him, us there was
little evidence save Dolegals and it was
somewhat conflicting. Sentence will be
pronounced Monday.

The man whom the university regents

~structor at the university is Lieut..

of Monroe.
The stumbling block in the way of his
detail at present is the fact that he has
been on detail duty on Governors island
several years and was sent to join a reg
iment on the frontier about six months
ago.
It is an almost infexible rule of the
war department that under III circum-

A HOME ENTERPRISE.
The Pine Biun Roller and Sheet Iron
 Works

The citizens of Pine Bluff should feel an interest iii any enterprise that aids in building up our city, in a manufacturing sense, and that gives employment to men who, living here, naturally spend their earnings with our merchants. Such an enter prise is the Pine Bluff Boiler and Sheet Iron Works, owned and operated by the LeLaurin Bothers.
 While this enterprise is young in years, it's fame has gone abroad in the land, until today, it is turning out work that is being shipped to all parts of the country.
 The works opened up with only four employees on the payroll, but the number has increased from time to time, until today there are fifteen skilled workmen engaged who are kept constantly busy filling orders and doing repair work.
 Yesterday the Pine Bluff Boiler and Sheet Iron Works received an order to send four of it's best work men to Little Rock to repair the four boilers of the Arakanas Cot ton Oil Company. This in itself speaks well for the enterprise. It is also a big advertisement for Pine Bluff.
 Another thing that our reporter has discovered to be true, is that this enterprise has just finished repairs to the amount of $500 on a locomotive for the Gurdon branch of the Iron Mountain road, which was sent here fer that purpose. The Dilley Foundry Company, of this city, also did repairs to the amount of over $600 on the engine.
 The Pine Bluff Boiler and Sheet Iron Works is doing an immense business in making dry kiln trucks,
