you more harm than good, for such is
the case If it is not digcstcd?

AN UNGRATEFUL HOBO.
Stole Mr.. Anthoine's Horse Yesterday.

About week ago a wandering Willie
stopped at Mr.. Daniel p. Anthoine's house,
Barren hill road, South Portland. Mi. An
thoine says the man asked for work and he
took him in. The wanderer gave the nam
of Charles Perry. He was a good worker
too as Mr.. Anthoine frankly admits. Yes
terday he came in town with Mr.. Anthoine
and on their return Perry was told to put up
the team. He went into the barn took a good
horse that belonged to Mr.. Anthoine, put
wolf robe on the animal for saddle, bri-
died him, and then rode away.
After while Nj. Anthoine missed the
man and on investigation found the horse
and other property gone. He came in town
and notified the police and sheriff's depart
ments. He then started on a tour of discov-
cry ON his own account and was fortunate
enough to'fnd horse and fittings at Benson's
stable where the thief had sold them fol
twenty dollars. Mr. Anthoine was delighted
to recover his property.

Witness.

In the Municipal court yesterday morning

charge of stealing an overcoat valued at
$40 from Alexander Mcneil. Woodside

while he told his story in frank, straight
forward manner. He said that he had sold

by stranger. He could not remember who
the stranger was. just as q sentence was

Wright. ssH is present condition is all owing
TO the effects of strong drink and am sure
that he has had q fearful struggle against
a habit which has become with him dis
ease. Having lost work he has become
Respondent
When Mr.. Wright had concluded his brief
but earnest remarks he stepped along side
the dock, shook hands with the prisoner
and retired from the court room.

of larceny had been presented against
the young man and the charge was not that
of receiving stolen goods. He would there
fore order the prisoner discharged.

an So coat and a watch chain Of the value
of Is cents from Mcneil, and a SIG violin
from John T. Curry. He received a sentence
