PACKER BICYCLE STOLEN

By Persons who stole Two Wheels In
sheIburne FaIIs---wRIter HerrIck,
owner, Traced the Thieves TO VIM
chester, N. II.
Bicycle thieves operated in Brattleboro
last Saturday night, stealing a new Pack
err wheel, No. 7191, from Walter Herrick
of Prospect Hill. They left in place OF
the stolen bicycle another vince, for which
officers in Shelburne Falls, Mass, had
been searching for two days, and they sue
ceeded in escaping from this state. Her
rick rode his wheel up to the store of Man
ley Brothers about 9 o'clock Saturday
night and left it in the wheel-rack in front
of the store while he went into the store.
He had been inside but a few minutes
when Edwin Sanders went in and asked
him to whom he had loaned his wheel.
Herrck said he had not loaned it, and
Sanders informed him that he had seen
some one riding it away at a rapid rate
After a few hasty inquiries it was learned
that the thieves had ridden across the
river into New Hampshire.
Chief Of Police Hall, who was called,
teephoned to all of the surrounding towns,
which was all that could be done that
night, and on Sunday morning Herrick
ana OdnueTS sldTleu OUT Oh UlClClco W
trace the thieves. They followed them to
Winchester, n. H., but lost trace of them
there. Herrick and Sanders went to
Keene and from there they returned to
Brattleboro.
On Thursday of last week Chief Of PO-
lice Hall received word from Sheriff Crafts
of Shelburne Falls that two bicycles had
been stolen there that day and that it was
believed the thieves were on the road TO
Brattleboro. When Mr.. Hall was called
to help find the thieves who stole Her
rick's wheel he found that they had left
another wheel in its place. Hetelephoned
description of it to Sheriff Crafts, who
identified it as one of the wheels stolen
from Shelburne Falls.
Sheriff Crafts came to Brattkboro Sun
day and took the wheel home with him.
Chief Of Police Hall sent out Tuesday pos
tal-card descriptions of the men and Her
rick's wheel, and it is probable that the
men will be arrested and the wheels re-
covered.

Petition for the Pardon of Thomas
Manning.

A petition to Gov. E. C. Smith has been
circulated by the selectmen this week ask
ing for the pardon of Thomas Manning,
who is now serving a sentence of 525 days
in the house of correction in Rutland.
Manning was arrested in February for
peddling whiskey by the ''pocket" method.
He pleaded guilty before Judge Newton TO
two first offences, and was fined S100 and
costs. He also pleaded guilty to the charge
of keeping with the intent to sell, and he
was fined $50 and costs, the whole amount
ing to $40. He was sentenced to IL DAYS
in the house of correction in addition to
his fine. Being unable to pay his fine he
was given the alternative sentence of three
times as many days in the house of correc-
ton as there We're dollars in his fines and
costs besides the straight sentence of Is
days. The petition sets forth that Man
ming was urged to plead guilty by the JUS
tice and the states attorney, that he has
large family which is now being supported
by the town, and that it would be better
for all concerned if he were released. The
states attorney strenously denies that Man.
ming was urged to plead guilty, and states
that Manning pleaded guilty of his own
free will after the statute was read to him
by the justice.

Native strawberries appeared in the
Brattleboro market this week. They have
been sold at II to 20 cents basket. The
southern berries are selling for 10 cents
basket, but the season for the southern
crop is about over. The crop of native
strawberries will be small this year, owing
to the lOng-continued drought, probably
not more than half as large as the usual
crop. The quality of the berries will not
be, as a rule, up to the standard of former
years unless rain falls within few days.
The first of the southern berries were of
an excellent quality, but on account of the
dry weather the last ones were not fully
filled out. G. f. Allen, who is one of the
largest strawberry raisers hereabouts. has
two acres of plants this year. He is irri-
eating one acre from which he expects to
raise an average yield of berries. He ex-
poets to harvest less than half an average
yield from the other acre. A few good
rain storms would materially improve the
quality of the berries and increase the
yield.

T07 FAD which had its origin in Lon
Il y don among the extremists, or ultra
n smart, women OF that metropolis
has reached us here, but is as yet
so exclusive as to be practically unknown
except to a few of the elect" This is
the embroidering of monograms on gloves:
Two of the swell glovemakers or
New York have made some few dozens
of gloves for one of the Easter brides
and perhaps three or four of the most
exclusive society leaders Of the town. 1t
cannot be called a pretty fashion, but as
II is decreed to be the thing, the thing II
will certainly prove to be.
Gloves made TO order with monograms
are devoid of stitching and the monogram
is embroidered in the center of the back
of the hand. Those which are purchased
from stock and then embroidered have
the monogram set between the thumb
seam and first row of stitching, and 9TH
ers have 1t placed on the wrist below the
stitching. This latter position is not al
together a very advantageous one, as
glove usually wrinkles so much at the
wrist that the monogram is apt to lose
its prominence and the small amount Of
beauty II might otherwise possess.
l was told that Miss Virginia Fair had
perhaps q dozen pairs of gloves thus en-
broidered as part of her trousseau, Some
were black embroidered in white, others
pale flesh colors, lavenders, pearl grays
and whites embroidered in self colors..
The most popular, If the new fad may
be said to be popular so soon, are the
self-colored embroidered mOnograms.
These decorations are so striking, even in

Monoqrdnn Gloves Are the Latest.

self-coloring, that few will be brave
enough to hazard so striking contrast as
white and black, or vice versa
My attention was drawn by one glove
maker to a very serious objection, which
he admitted would stand greatly In the
way of making these monogram gloves
very popular among New York women,
and that was the fact that these mono
grams were bound to make the hand look
larger than ii naturally was.
Several samples were shown me, and
really l could not consider them anything
else but ugly-for instance, q glove of
suede in the new bluet shade, with a
white patch in the middle OF the back as
large as a 10-cent piece.
This fad is just in its birth in the
stamping shops, for I was told that two
young girls had left three or four pairs
Of kid gloves to be stamped with their
monograms, and intended embroidering
them themselves.
I-asked on a venture whether they could
stamp my monogram on pair of kid
gloves, and besides replying in the affirm
ative they showed me the gloves they had
already stamped.
AS a novelty for a present or for piazza
work at a summer resort they are GER
tainly very fetching, but for downright
utility and beauty they undoubtedly stand
a very meager chance for any great sue
cess.
There are always certain women who
will grasp at anything in the novelty line
and we must be prepared to see, after the
fad has once been started, many gloved
hands displaying the wearer's monogram
in contrasting or self-coloring.
