SCHOOL BOARD COMMITTEES.

Three committees on the part of the
school board held meetings yes
terdav afternoon at the office of Super
intendent Carroll at the city hall. The
members of the committee on drawing

A NIGHT VIGIL.
Malbury Citizens Watch
Bank and Await Burglars.

Millbury Nov. 10. = There was consid-
last evening over the report that three
mysterious characters were seen in the
rear of the Millbury Bank block during
the early part of the evening. A Spy
man tried to investigate the matter to-
day, but was unable to find anything
which would throw light upon the matter,
but found from an authentic source that
a party of citizens, well armed, laid I'M
der 'cover" in the rear of the bank dur
ing the night, awaiting for the mysteri-
GUS characters to get in their work on
the bank.
One of the tenants of the bank build
ing said today that last evening he was
standing upon the balcony in the rear of
the building, and that he saw a man
steal slowly into the yard and go to the
bank windows and there disappear.
1t is the general opinion here that the
gang of tramps that has been hanging
around the vicinity for the past few days
were contemplating entering the bank,
and would have done so last evening had
they not been discovered.
Every one living in the vicinity of the
building heard of the affair, and all are
awaiting to give the gang a royal send
Off when they appear.

CANDIDATE ENDORSED
Carpenters Union Pledged Support to
W. A. Rossey.


At a very enthusiastic meeting of the
Carpenters Union, held at Labor head
quarters, GA southbridge street, last
evening, the members endorsed the
candidacy of William A. Rossley, pres
ident of the union, as democratic nomi-
nee for councilman in ward 5. The I'M
ion in making a, resolution favorable to
President Rossley, acted on the idea
that there is a desire for more liberal
representation of the people in the
branches of the city government, and
they believed that Mr. Rossley was a
man who could fill the position.
Two candidates We're initiated and
elected to membership. Reports were
read and accepted from several com
mittees recently appointed on matters
of interest to the union, and other mat
ters of interest were discussed.

THE FREE LIST.
Despite the improvements in

Despite the improvements in
the present game and fish law
over previous ones, the dynamit-
ing and selling of public fish and
the killing of deer out of season is
going on in some parts of the
state almost as openly as in form
err years. Local deputy game
wardens, generally speaking, are
of little service and instances
have been known where they
have been in collusion with poach-
ers. The San Juan country is an
easy hunting ground of the latter
gentry and one seldom hears of
an arrest in any of that region,
which includes the hoadwaters
of the Rio Grande, once one of
tho finest fishing streams in the
West and still a favorite resort.
Some detective work by Denver
people unknown to anyone i'll the
towns of that great district would
probably yield a quick harvest of
convictions for selling trout, kill
ing mountain sheep and dynamit-
ing the public streams to say
nothing of the comparatively
minor offence of hunting out of
season. Creede, Lake City and
Silverton would be three promis-
ing fields for such work.

The Burlington's New Trains

Railroad men who have had the
privilege of examining the four
new trains which the Burlington
Route, on the lst of May, placed
in service between Denver and
Chicago say they are as magnifi-
comfy equipped us any in the
country-that even the famous
limited expresses between Chicago
and New York are not handsomer
or more luxurious. Every car is
wide vestibuled, and was built es-
pecially for the Burlington Route.
The four trains are identical in
appearance and arrangement
Each is composed of a buffet
smoking-l -librarycar, a palace Sleep
ing-car, and two reclining-chair
cars. The Observation-Disclosures

Chicago line, 1t is a veritable

rate of fifty miles an hour. 1t is
handsomely carpeted and furnish
ell with settees, cushioned easy
chairs, lavatory, writng-desk,
compartment for card-players,
and a well-stocked buffet. The
current periodicals and news
papers are on file, and carefully
selected library is provided for the

CERVERA MUST
FIGHT, IT'S SAID

Valencia, May 81. News of the arrival
of Admiral Cervera's squadron at San
=tiago de Cuba has caused much satisfac-
tion here.
The feeling of the pepole had been that
the return OF the fleet to Spain without
having struck blow or having given
any evidence of It's strength would have
been q moral defeat. Cervera must fight,
,r Spain will not be satisfied. 10 know
that tue advance Spanish squadron finally
headed across the Atlantic, even IL only
to play hide and seek among the West
Indies, has been a great relief to the
people.
A large and Influential section OF the
Spanish people, so far from regarding the
suggested Anglo American alliance with
apprehension, hail It with sort OF grim
satisfaction. With England as declared
enemy openly allied with the United
States Spain, they argue, should no
longer stand alone In her tremendous
and unequal struggle.
The big European powers who, under
cover of selfish neutrality, have hitherto
turned n deaf ear TO the cry of justice and
outraged International right and moral
ity, would then be- forced to tako up the
cause OF this country from IN otives OF
self-intvrest the only lever said to move
them.
