A. Bicycle Missing.

A hurrying around to trace one of G..
I. Sherwin's bicycles yesterday afternoon
by the officers and friends of Mr.. Sherwin
caused considerable interest. A man came
to Mr.. Sherwin's shop about three o'clock
and wanted bicycle for short time to
use about town. Only a few minutes later
Mr. oherwln found he was fugitive from
the officers and had probably left town per-
manently. Parties started at once north
and south OF the toll bridge, where he was
last seen passing into New Hampshire, but
they were not rapid enough to catch up,
and at nightfall nothing had.been learned
OF his whereabouts, nor of the wheel. b..
tween nine and ten telephone MESSAGE
from Springfield, VT, to Towns hotel said
he would return today with the wheel and
pay his bills. AT this time nothing further
has been heard from him. The previous
history is that party of two men and
three women came here Thursday night
and registered at Towns hotel.
All were ABOUT town during yester-
day forenoon, hiring bicycles from
Mr.. Sherwin and making considerable
show. When the flyer came up at man
put In an appearance claiming one of the
women as his wife, and fearing threatened
arrest one of the men went and took Mr..
sherwln's bicycle to get out of town with
as above, the other disappearing about the
same time. The three women returned to
keene with the husband later in the day.
The women are said to be from road
house outside of Keene on the Swanzey
road known as the Valley house," Mr..
Sherwin is wondering if he will see the man
returning his wheel and paying the bills as
promised to-day.

Special Village Meeting at North WaIpoie.

Special Village Meeting at North Wapoie
A special meeting of the North Walpole
fire district has been called to be held Fri
day, August 6, to take the preliminary
steps looking to putting in a thorough sys
tenn of sewerage for the village. This i.
rendered necessary by the rapid growth Of
the village and must be done sooner OF
later. This meeting is called to see if the
district will vote to adopt SO much of the
provisions of Chapter SO of the New
Hampshire statutes as refers to sewers,
which, if done, paves the way for second
meeting to see il the district will vote to
build the sewers, and appropriate money
therefor. The New Hampshire statutes
are peculiar in some ways, necessitating a
series Of. different meetings. before the mat.
ter can be definitely decided upon, when
in our own state the different steps could
be made at only one meeting.
Our enterprising suburb is wide awake,
and when they decide they ought to do a
thing they do it as soon as they can. They
have spent large amount of money the
past few years in building permanent con.

already under way, and a by drant system

the President has decided to take other

reads:

predict th at the Bear will not sail before
evening on that day, and possibly some
commission in the letter may make still

NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says: At least
two and possibly three changes in Presi-
dent McK,nley's Cabinet will occur in the
near future. 1t is definitely settled that
Attorney General McKenna will be ap-
pointed to The Supreme Court bench on
Decem Der 5, the first day of the new ses-
sion of Congress. 1t is also certain that
before long Secretary Sherman will retire
to private life
The possible change is in the Postoffice
Department. Postmast ter General Gary
has aspirations for the United States SEN
ate. He has not yet declared himself, but
the Repu blican leaders in Maryland will
nsis: that he shall do so at an early date.
Il he can receive reasonable assurances
that he will be elected Mr.. Gary VIII enter

leave and is opposed to his entering tae

Comas well-equipped man for he SEN
ale and if Mr.. Gary decides to rema in
the Cabinet the support of the admin
istration will be thrown to the Judge.
No date has yet been fixed for The re-
tirement of Secretary Sherman, and some
of his friends deny that he has any nten-
tion OF leaving the public service un,il the
close of the administration. The positive
statement has been made TO me, however,

man does contemplate leaviog the State
Department at an early date. am told
