For the first time in the judicial history
OF TIE State tho Supreme Court met this
morning in Woonsocket. The Court,
as is we'll known, has for so long
a time that the memory OF man run
meth not to the contrary been
held in all other sections OF the state ex-
cept the northern section. The holding
OF the court session in the northern city
is the outcome of an egitation for the es-
1ablishment OF a county seat there.
The Judge who presided at this morn
ing's session, Judge Wilbur, for many
wears previous TO his elevation to the
State bench was the trial justice oil
the city. The court room Is a
close and ld-fash hioned one, and
the only business transacted was
the calling of the calendar OF cases In
which Providence and Woonsocket parties
are interested. There were nearly twenty
five such cases. The next session OF the
court will be held in the new court house
| to be built in that city. Clerk Webster o

Professional Thieves Operate
in East Providence.
They Stole Eighty Dollars From
Store at PhillipsviIle.
Surroundings Show the Great Force
OF the Safe Explosion.

The safe in the general store OF the
American Electrical Works at Phillips
Vile, East Providence, was blown to pieces
last night and about $50 in cash was stolen.
When Robert l.. Gilbert, the manager OF
the store, went to open the front door
door this mGrning, he found it un-
locked, and upon examination he
found that it had been forced open,
as large part OF the 2-inch
lamb had been torn off. When he dis
covered this he knew that the store had
been entered, and he went directly to the
safe, which stood under desk about
midway of the store. He found the
entire front OF the safe in hundreds
of pieces, and large show case, that was
within a few feet of it, was shattered. A
post about four feet from tho front OF
of the safe was nearly cut In two
by tie safe door and other woodwork
tnat was in range OF the door was stove
TO splinters. The cabinet work inside OF
the safe was also split. 1t was profess
sional job,as the work OF boring indicated.
The safe was we'll covered with wet blan-
kets and other material to deaden the re-
port as no one in the vicinity OF the store
heard any noise during the night, and
there are two houses within few fee. OF
| the store.
Just how much the thieves got Mr.. Gill
bert was unable to say, but somewhere
near $50. 1t has always been the custom
to leave large sums Of money in the safe,
and Saturday evening many customers
pay their bills. This, with sum OF $3.50,
drawn from thebank Saturday, was taken
to the office OF the company at the
works and given to the treasurer for
safe keeping. Just why Mr.. Gilbert
did this he does not know. He Is salts
fed that the men who did the job are
from Pawtucket, as that is where he
drew the money. Two strange
looking fellows were seen IN
the vicinity about IL o'clock coming
from that direction. The safe was practi'
|, caliy a new one, of the Deibold Msnufac-
, turing Company. Nothing but the sai'
and the contents, with the exception OF
bottle OF sarsaparilla, was disturbed
There was bright light burning on th'
desk which stood over the safe. This Mr.
Gilbert found burning as usual this morn
q ing. They left no trace, and 1t is quite
probable that the men that did the lo
will never be found.

THIEVES IN THE WAKE.
Efforts to Exterminate the Crook Di-
vision That Follows Shows.

Quite recently gang of sneak thieves
have connected themselves with the but"
falo Bill Wild West Show, but met with
cool reception, as the proprietor and man
ager of the company at once went 10 WORK

in the several cities captured them as last
as possible. They are being driven away,

Saturday morning, was evidently one oil
