TROUBLE CAUSED BY OPERA
GLASSES.

Last night Patrolmen McGrath and
Moore tslephoned Deputy Marshal Sterl-
ing that a man was in Portland theatre
who had offered for sale pair of opera
glasses for 81. The officers thought the
mans actions were somewhat peculiar
and SO reported the fact. Deputy Sterling
told the officers to bring this seller of
opera glasses into the police station and
the order was obeyed. The man said that
his name was Matthew MeNulty and said
he had bought the opera glasses of q
boy in Bernstein's pawn shop. The officers
hunted up this boy, whose name is Sam
uel Mack, and Officers johnson and
Heath arrested him and brought him to
the station. He confirmed McNulty 4
story of selling him the glasses and Mo
Nulty was at once discharged. Mack
was not able to satisfy the police with
his explanation of where and how he had
oDtained these opsra glasses and he is held
on suspicion Of larceny. The boy says
ne bought tho glasses of man whose
name he does not know. The poles
think that the opera glasses were stolen
from some one originally and are tryine
to find an owner for them. They have
sterling silver trimmings and ar ap ~
emily very good glasses.
