use great care in drinking the river ice

man and his friend from New York were
feeding peanuts to the elephant circus day
the St. Johnsbury man remarked that it
reminded him of De Wolf Hoppers's ele.
plant song from Wang" The New
Yorker said he had heard the song but
had never seen Mr. Hopper. The other
man happened to look at another ele.
phant who was being fed from bag OF
peanuts and quickly replied, "Well, there
is De Wolf Hopper feeding an elephant
right by your side." And sure enough
it was the prince Of comedians who came
down from the st. Johnsbury House that

The Peacham BurgIars.-Kellev and

The Peacham Burglars. Kelley and
Smith, the Peacham burglars, were given
a hearing before Justice Worcester in the
court house Saturday, Monday and
Tuesday. Fl. B. Howe appeared for the
defendants. A large number of witnesses
were examined and the evidence obtained
was convincing. The court decided to
hold the prisoners for the December term
OF county court and fixed their bail at
$30O.each, in default Of which they were
committed to Jail. The testimony of the
witnesses clearly showed that the
before the burglary and that they were
seen in Barnet an hour or more after the
burglary was supposed to have taken
place, just about enough time to allow
them to walk from Peacham to Barnet.
One of the witnesses also met two men
walking to Barnet at that time of the
night, though he did not recognize them.
They paid their fare to Woodsville and
received a rebate, which they cashed at
that station just before being arrested Z.
When they told the officers they were
from st. Johnsbury they were confronted
with the rebates as a proof that they
were lying. They tried to account for
this fact by saying that they stole their
ride from st. Johnsbury to Barnet.
From the testimony Of the witnesses
there can be little doubt that those were
the men who broke into Richter's store
The amount of money stolen was also
found on their person.

tions on this occasion and immense num-
bers of relatives and friends will wish
