SHERIFF REEVES BUSY DAY.
Two Searches, Two Arrests for stealing
md An Arrest for Intoxication.

Monday was one of Sheriff Reeves
many busy days. During the day the
hustlng sheriff went to the Eugene Good
rich place on the Walker farm and arrest
ed two men for stealing, got out war
rant and arrested a man for drunkenness
on Church street, searched two places in
the northern part of the city and secured
two barrels of beer and during the inter
walls found time to get shaved and attend
the hearing before Judge Ross, where he
was called upon to give testimony. Men
sometimes complain because they are
unable to find the sheriff, but rarely is
a complaint heard because the sheriff fails
to find people for whom he is looking.
After supper the Sheriff took
his team and drove up to No. 2S Rose
street. In his pocket he carried n war;
rant upon which was the name Of Jean
Lucia. The outer door had to be forced
before the sheriff gained access to Lucia s
home and then the search began. AmonG
the strange things located in a closet was
a faucet, and this and other things led
to the belief that something contrahand
was in the vicinity. There is no cellar
under a portion of the house and toward
this the sheriff directed his attention a
hollow sound in a certain portion of the
room was considered a suspicious circum-
stance and the carpet was taken up. This
revealed a strange condition of things IN
Lucias front room. Neatly buried and
covered under the floor We're two bar
rels of beer one of which connected
underground with the faucet in the closet

TROLLEY LINE OPENED.
Essex Junction Cars Will Hereafter Run
over the River Road to Winooski.

The branch of the Burlington Traction
company's road leading from the term
nation of the Winooski avenue line at the
car barn to the WinoosN bridge, where it
connects with the main line, was formally
opened yesterday The operation of reg
ular cars over the new line will begin to-
day.
The opening of the new line was not st
tended by any formal demonstration.
During the morning the officials ct the
Traction company invited ABOUT 40 gentle
men, including members of the Board of
Aldermen. city officials and Others, to ac-
company them upon the first trip over the
line and nearly all accepted. At $50 two
cars left from the City Hall carrying the
party. The special cars ran over The WI
nooski avenue line and thence over the
lower road. stopping to give opportunity
for an examination of the tracks and
roadbed. The two cars were run as Car as
Winooski and then returned over the
same route. The new road is to all APP
pearances well and cary fully constructed
and the cars ran with noticeable smooth
ness over the newly laid tracks. The rails
are heavier than most of those in the city.
| The construction of the road has entailed
the making of several expensive fills
along tho river side of the highway which
| is followed throughout the route. Guards
are being put up at the dangerous points
to prevent accidents. The barn of the
| Burlington FIGURING company, which inn
peded the direct route of the ROAD. has
/ been removed by an arrangement of the
Touring company. the railroad company
and the city.
Tho regular cars which will begin run
ming to-day will for the present be those
of the Fort Ethan Allen line. This will
give n 10 minute service and enable the
| company TO operate its regular twenty
minute service over the hill to Winoosk
| without interruption.
