BRENNAN OF BROcKToN
shoveIs Snow, Steals GoIoshes, and i:
Shipped to Station |.

James Brennan, "A years old, claim
ing residence in Brockton, arrived in
Worcester Sunday and being in need
Of the necessary funds to secure hotel
accommodation, put up at the Waldo
street station house. James arose
bright and early Monday morning, and
when the crowd of lodgers was turned
loose took a hand with his dornitory
mates and helped remove the deposit
Of snow from in front of the police sta
ton. Next, according to his story,
James secured employment shoVellng
snow for other parties, but the work
was too heavy for him, and he was
obliged to desist early in the afternoon.
With the proceeds received, James pro-
ceeded to prime himself with various
brands of whisky, until he arrived at
the stage where he imagined he was
experimenting the entire force of snow
shovelers. He took his position on Front
street. opposite the common, and pro-
ceeded to direct the drivers Of teams
engaged in carting snow.
The officer on the beat moved him
along, and James subsided only to
break out with renewed vigor later in
the afternoon About o'clock he was
seized with the idea that he needed a
pair Of overshoes, and walking into a
Front street emporium, appropriated a
pair of goloshes that were exposed for
sale.
The attention of Special officer Stree
ter was called to the affair, and the
offender was finally placed under ar
rest, with the assistance of officer Da-
wilson James was inclined to argue
the matter, but was finally handcuffed
and shipped to the Waldo street station.

AIDED BY MRS. PINKHAM.

Mrs. W. f. PAXTON. Youngstown,
North Dakota, writes about her strug-
gle to regain health after the birth Of
her little girl
"DEAR Mrs. PNKHAM;--It Is with
pleasure that 1 add my testimony to
your list, hoping that it may induce
others to avail themselves of your val
liable medicine.
After the birth of my little girl,
three years ago, my health was very
poor. l had leucorrhoea badly, and a
terrible bearing-down pain which
gradually grew worse, until could do
no work. Also had headache nearly
all the time, and dizzy feelings. Men
situations were very profuse, appear
ing every two weeks.
"Itook medicine from a good doctor,
but it seemed to do no good. 1 was
becoming alarmed over my condition,
when l read your advertisement in a
paper. ] sent at once for bottle of
Lydia e. Pinlsham's Vegetable Com
ponnd and after taking two-thirds Of
the bottle felt so much better that
send for two more. After using three
bottles felt as strong and well as any
one.
Il think it is the best medicine for
female weakness ever advertised, and
recommend it to every lady L meet suf-
feting from this trouble
Maternity is a wonderful experience
and many women approach it wholly
unprepared Childbirth under right
conditions need not terrify women.
The advice of Mrs. Pinl1ham is freely
offered to all expectant mothers, and
her advice is beyond question the most
valuable to be obtained. If Mrs. Pax
ton had written to Mrs. Pinkham be-
fore confinement She would have been
saved much suffering. Mrs. Pinkham' S
address is Lynn, Mass.

REFUSED THE OATH.
Fogerty Was Not Allowed to Escape Debts
and Was Sent to Jail.

A rather unusual case was disposed
of by Judge Utley in the central dis.
trict court, yesterday. Albert H
Fogerty, former employ of the Bos-
ton store, was denied the privilege OF
taking the poor debtors oath and was
committed to Summer street iail for an
indefinite period
Some time ago, Fogerty contracted a
Dill amounting to upward of S1OO. al
the Boston store, and refused to pay
The bill was placed in the hands of
Fhayer & Perry for collection, but the
lawyers were unable to get anything
on the account. although they were
morally sure that Fogerty had prom
erty, but has concealed it,
They finally filed charges of fraud
and Judge Utley issued a certificate OF
arrest. Fogerty appeared in the cen
tral district court yesterday morning
and asked permission to take the poor
debtors oath
Inc privilege was refused. and he was
sentenced to the house of correction fol-
four months en- the charge of fraud
togerty appealed and was held for the
superior court in the sum Of $500.
From evidence submitted. Judge TTtley
was satisfied that Fogerty has property
and that he might pay the bill in dues-
tion if so disposed. He was sentenced
to jail for an indefinite period and will
remain there until he either pays the
bill or the complainants in the case
cease to pay his board.
Or he may, within a stated time, ap-
ply to any judge in Worcester county
for permission to take the poor debt
ors oath. Thayer & Perry for the
plaintiff. b. w. Potter for the defend

AT THE POST OFFICE.


Naturally, the storm caused trouble
at the post Office, and from one end of
the schedule to the other, there were
delays, some of them short and some
long, very long. Every railroad post
office mail was late. The New York
mail, due at 9.l5 a. M, came in at $50
p. M, and the Boston mail, due at 800
a. m, reached the office at 7.2O a. m.
There were delays of an hour or more
on western and northern roads.
NO mails were sent to Leicester or
Cherry Valley until o'clock D. M.
when President Watson Of the Subur-
ban road started out with the pouches.
Mr.. Watson went as far as Webster
square on the cars, and the remainder
OF the distance by team. The Shrews-
bury mail came in about 4 O'Clock bv
sleigh, and the same conveyance car
ried a mail back
Communication was kept up regular
ly with Station A all day, but Station
was out of it until Mr.. Brusoe came
IN in Sleigh bringing such mail as
he had, and taking a mail back with
him. Stations and d were supplied
through special messengers.
All mails were dispatched regularly
and on scheduled time from the most
office, but they left the city very irreg-
ularly.
The carriers all made one round over
their routes, and many two. They
found the going pretty hard. C,ollec-
tions were made with fair regularity in
the afternoon, but the outlying dis
tricts, of course, suffered.

THREE LIVE MAGAZINES.
The Living Age, Outing and The Round
Table

The long life Of that venerable and
valuable eclectic, The Living Age, is
another instance of the survival of the
fittest. It's present vitality is evil
denced by the announcement that The
Eclectic Magazine of New York, its
oldest and most important competitor,
will, with the issue of January, 1899, be
consolidated with The Living Age, the
resultant magazine to be known as The
Eclectic Magazine and Monthly Edi-
ton of The Living Age. One of the
earliest numbers OF the new year will
contain the translation of a striking
lecture of NJ. Ferdinand Brunetiere, the
eminent French critic, on Art and
morality" Arrangements are being
made for strong serials from English,
Italian and German sources, and the
probability is that The Living Age will
be as noteworthy for the best fiction
in 1899 as in 1898. Issued weekly, and
giving about $500 large pages of reading
matter a year, 1t is enabled to present
with most satisfactory completeness
and freshness, the ablest essays and re-
views, the choicest of poetry, the most
interesting sketches of travel and biog-
raphy, and the most valuable biograph-
ical, historical, scientific and political
information, from the entire body of
British and continental literature, and
the pens of the foremost writer's. A
monthly supplement devoted to Read
ings from New Books" and an editorial
department on Books and Authors %
have been added.
The December issue of Harper's
Round Table will be Christmas double

cover. 1t win contain GA pages of

AN OLD CASE.
Central District Court Sees
Matuleyic Again.

Among other cases tried yesterday
morning in the central district court,
was that of Adam Smith, charged with
threatening the life of Louise Matule-
vic, or Morris, as she is sometimes
known.
The complainant was the first wit
ness, and said that Smith came to her
home Thanksgiving day and asked to
see one Of the boarders in the house. A
younger sister admitted the man, but
as soon as the witness found he was in
the house, she and her mother elected
him.
She claims that Smith turned around
after he had been forced outside and
threatened her, saying he would serve
her as he did her father, who met with
a mysterious death last summer. She
alleges that Smith called after her as
she went into the house. that he was a
little fellow, but that he killed her
father and would kill her and her moth
ef, at the same time fiOurishing a for
Misunderstanding slung shot.
Miss MatuleVic created something of
sensation by declaring that she now
believes Smith to be the principal in
the assault which resulted in her faith
er's death, and that Peter Kavasnolis-
Key, who is now serving a sentence in
Jail, was merely an accomplce.
Mrs. Margaret White. of Diamond
street, said that after Smith was eject
ed from the Matulevic tenement, he
said to her that he had just as soon kill
the mother and daughter as the faith
er.
Smith testified that he went to the
house ON the day in question. but was
thrown down and walked on before he
mad chance to find out where he was
al a keg OF beer was on tap and dan
eng was going on at the house. He
made no threats and went away peace-
ably His testimony was corroborated
by number of witnesses. Smith was
discharged.

THE "BEAUTY'' GOES. =
Front Street Dime Show Decamps With
Meagre Warning.

The $4,000 beauty and accompany
ing features of the dime show that has
been in evidence a. 80 Front street for
u week or more past, left town yester-
day, Officer Bellows called on the
manager Of the show yesterday fore
noon, and called his attention 10 the
fact that he was supposed to clear the
snow from the sidewalk in front OF
the premises.
When the officer passed the place
again q few minutes later, the room
was cleared out. not even a vesJige of
the tinsel on the skirt of the beauty
remained.
No one seems acquainted with the fu-
ture location of the combination, and
the reason for leaving town so uncer-
mOniously is also shrouded in mystery.
OF late rather unCOmplimentaty things
have been whispered regarding the
performance but no one was willing
10 appear as complainant against it.
A Methodist minister of this city
called on Chief of Police brennan a
few days ago, and said he felt sure the
entertainment was bad and demoraliz-
ing to the youth especially. lie admit
ted doing a little "Dr. Parkhurst
work" and said he had seen the show.
He was also willing to appear before
the license board and make a formal
protest against the entertainment. The
show has gone, however, ana there is
no need of his complaint
Chief brennan has also received a
rumber of communications from differ
ent individuals who pretend to know
something about the show. He sum
moned the manager into his presence
and questioned him regarding the ma
ture Of his performance, but the man
sger protested that he was doing moth
ing aside from what was advertised.
An officer was sent to the place, but
was unable to find anything of an i'm
moral nature.
