BOYS STOLE THE MONEY.
Mystery Attending Cash Market Larceny
Case Cleared Up.

Inspectors ODay and Stone have
cleared up the mystery surrounding the
disappearance of a roll of bills contain
ing between $2S5 and $237 from the Bos-
ton cash market last Saturday fore
noon. Frank C. Williams, the proprie-
tor of the market, left the money, which
he was preparing for deposit, lying on
the desk just inside his office window
about IL o'clock in the forenoon, and
while he was waiting on some custom
ers the money disappeared.
Tuesday the inspectors arrested Geo
E. Mcmahon, IL years old; Geo. L.
O'Connor, IL, and Dennis O'Hara a.
and brought them to Station l where
they were charged with larceny.
The boys went into the market to buy
peas, and while his companions held the
proprietorss attention, Mcmahon noticed
the roll of bills and appropriated them
The youths left the store and went up
Main street to Chatham where the
spoils We're divided.
They distributed the money among
their boy friends and spent money right
and left In fact they mad money to
burn. The lavish expenditure was the
first clue to that led to their arrest Last
Sunday party of about dozen boys
took trolley ride to Marlboro, and the
unlimited supply of money they carried
aroused suspicion. The inspectors
learned of this and found a number of
boys with pockets full of change One
of the youngsters had rendered $40 bill
in payment for a newspaper and
laughed at the newsboy because he
could not change it,
The clue finally centred on Mcmahon,
and he was taken to the police station
where, upon being questioned, he con-
fessed.
McMahon admitted that he took the
money, and named as the boys who were
with him at the time, O'Connor and
OHara The other boys and a number
of their friends who had received part
of the money, were brought to the sta
ton during the afternoon. After the
examination the cases of the three prin-
cipals were continued till the juvenile
session next Tuesday.
Up TO Tuesday night $64.71 of the
money had been recovered. Mcmahon
had over $35 in his possession, O'Hara
$40 and O'Connor Sl27, besides various
amounts recovered from the boys who
shared in their bounty.
Young Mcmahon hid over $50 under a
barn on Central street. This was recov-
cred
Mcmahon was arrested Oct II for
breaking and entering a lunch cart, and
about month later for entering store
on Thomas street. He was placed on
probation in both cases.

ST, VALENTINE's DAy3

Mr.. Donce, In his illustrations OF
Shakespeare, says regarding 81. valen-
tines day: 1T was the practice in an
Gent Rome during a great part Of the
month OF February to celebrate the Luz
percalla, which were feasts in honor OF
Pan and Juno. whence the latter deity
was named Februata, FebrualIs and
Februella. On this occasion, amidst a
variety OF ceremonies, the names OF
young women were put In box, from
which they were drawn by the men as
chance directed. The pastors of the
carly Christian. church. who by every
possible means endeavorcd to eradicate
the vcstiges Of pagan supcrstltons,
substituted In the present instance the
names OF particular saints instead OF
those women. and as the festival of Luz.
pcrcalla had commenced about tho mid
die Of February. they appeared to have
chosen st. Valentines day for celebrat-
Ing the new feast, because It occurred
at nearly the same time. This Is, in
part. the opinion of the learned compiler
OF the lives Of the saints. It would
seem. however, that Il was utterly i'm
possible to extirpate altogether any GER
emony to which the common people had
been much accustomed, fact which It
Is easy TO prove In tracing the origin OF
various other popular superstitlons, and
accordingly the outline OF the ancient
ceremonies was preserved, but modified
by some adaptation to the Christian
system. Il is reasonable to suppose
that the above practice OF choosing
mates would gradually lbecome:recipro-
cal In the sexes. and that all persons so
chosen would be called valentines from
the day on which the ceremony took
