SHELTON BURGLARS CAPTURED.
 Two young men by the name of Albert
 Morse and Michael Gillis were arrested
 last Monday night, for the recent bur. glaries committed here. In the burglary committed in the apothecary store of K days after it was sold in a saloon to the bartender in Derby. A night or two afterward that saloon was burgiarized.
 The bartender notified the chief of police and showed him the pistol which was brought here and identified. Morse was suspected, arrested and taken before the bart nde who ident fl d him as the one from whom he purchased the pistol. Morse had at first denied all knowledge of the burglaries but when thus con- fronted he acknowledged and made 8 clean breast of 1t. He also named Mich ael Gillis as the one who assisted and that there was no other engaged in the crimes. ca Wednesday morning they were brought before the court in the Town hall, which was nearly filled, and Morse gave the detail of all the burglaries he was charged with and one that he was not. Gillis stoutly denied his story and would acknowledge only one bur glary which he knew of and that was done by Morse. Gillis is hard charact- CT and his story was not believed. The burglaries were committed this spring and were in the factory of D. M. Bas- sett where little money, small clock and some keys were taken in the factory of the Comb Co.,, where a few combs were taken and some planes from the Derby Plane Co.,, in the same building in the office of John A. Blrge coal dealer, when a small amount of money was taken; in the store k. J. Borden, where $4 50 was taken and revolver, and in the Delb Plane Co.'S factory where a belt was stolen which was sold for $7. Probable cause was found and the prison CTS were held in 5000 each for the next term of the criminal Superior court, which sets next Tuesday.

A MORAL NOVEL.

Rev. DR.. Newton, the author Of
Priest and Man." has written a real
New England religious novel entitled
philip MacGregor" philip MacGre-
gor" is the story of young man who
yielded to a great temptation to dis
honesty and after a successful flight
returned to bear the penalty and to lead
an upright life. The aim of the book Is
to bring and to bear upon human ma
ture a strong, commanding motive, as it
stands face to face with duty and temp
tation. According to the author Chris
tlan faith Is that motive, and the story
is but dramatized discussion of the
weakness and failure that come to a
life which lacks or loses the fundamen-
tai virtues that have their roots in the
faith of the Son of God, and also the
power of that faith to redeem such a
life from the tolls of sin In which it
has been ensnared. This aim the au-
thor has held before him with absolute
clearness of vision from beginning to
the end of the story. Don't throw
away your dirty water until you can
get clean" is the lesson of Philip Mac
Gregor novel. Old principles are toe
good to be discarded off hand. The
work is calculated to make the reader
think. 1t is very instructive.
The book is offered to the public by a
Tuscarora Indian, who is studying tc
enter the medical profession, and who
after obtaining his medical education
will return to his people, who are on the
Tuscarora reservation, to practice his
profession. He has already been much
encouraged here, many of our best
known business men having bought the
book in order to aid him in his lauda-
BILE undertaking.
