Candle Pin Match May Be Arranged With
The Worcesters.

Webster, Feb. 28.-Through the eff
forts of Edward H. Horton and other
candle-pin experts, it now looks as if
the season would not be passed over
without Il match game at candle pins
with some good out-of- town team.
Through no ones particular fault,
bowling in town this season has been on
the wane, and up to date very little
enthusiasm has been displayed by
those who were formerly the most zeal
Gus in arranging matches and keeping
up the excitement.
Capt. Horton of the old famous
Webster quintet, and who is himself
a veteran at the business, was seen by
the local correspondent of The Spy to-
day, and he was in favor of organic
ing at once a team and rolling the
Babies of Worcester. He said a few
days of constant practice would put
the boys on an even footing with their
city cousins. He said he preferred the
Babies, as they were considered the
best team in Worcester. The team that
will probably roll the Babies will con-

celebrated and benediction pronounced
by Rev. FIR. Meehan, celebrant, Of
Ware.
The 40 hours devotion Is an annual
recurrence among the Catholic
churches, but the event this year was
more impressive than previous occa-
sions. During the services, which con-

largest 1t his been in the history of the
church. Much credit is due the officiat-

Webster Selectmen Could
Do Nothing Definite.

Webster, Feb. 2S.-The honorable
board of selectmen assembled at head
quarters last night at 7.90 o'clock. 1t
was their regular meeting, but on ac-
count of circumstances, it had been
postponed from the usual noon hour un-
til evening.
The all-absorbing topic, namely, the
barricading of the Beacon Park cross
ing by the New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad, was discussed in all
it's details, but no decisive action was
agreed upon by the board.
1t seems that there are several tech
nical points that can be decided only
when the records of the road are dis
closed, and an investigation of the rec
ords will be made if they can be found.
Selectman Henry Brandes told a re-
porter for The Spy after the meeting,
that it was question where the road is
recorded He said further that the
road has been in use for nearly 20 years.
Continuing, Mr.. Brandes said: This
part of Webster where the bone of con-
tention is now centered, was then a
part of Dudley. The question is
whether it is turnpike, town, county
or state road. 1t is certainly a. public
highway. If it is town highway,
then the records will be found on the
Dudley books
Mr.. Brandes said that he could re-
member in 1854. when he first came to
Webster, that they were digging out
the road there. The company, how
ever, failed, and the road was discoIi-
tinued until 1864. when work was
once more resumed on it.
Mr.. Brandes said that he expected
those who are interested in the block
AIDE could appear before the board and
talk the matter over, but they did not
come.

TO RELOCATE IN WEBSTER.

Webster is soon to have another tailor
in the person of Thomas Farrell. The
residents Of 10 years ago will remember
Farrell, when he conducted a tailoring
business where Ike Shea, the tailor,
now holds forth. His sign hung in the
same place as Ike's but the letters
were not so large as likes.
Mr. Farrelfs son, Francis Farrell
who lives in Waltham. Mass, has been
in town making arrangements for the
arrival of his father and family. Mr.
Farrell is now located in Milford and
is a possessor of real estate off School
street. The local reporter gave this
information to local tailor, and the
idea. Of having another competitor TO
glare at him gave him the cold chills.

BIG EXPENSE IN DUDLEY.

Webster, Feb. 2S.-The recent snow
storm more than isolated the town of
Dudley. 1t cost them nearly $1,000. The
big blizzard of November cost the town
a similar amount, and snow bills have
cost Dudley nearly $1,000 so far this, sea-
son, with the future yet in store. The
selectmen met a day, or two. ago and
drew snow bills to the enormous amount
of 1888. There Is reason for this. That
town has about 70 miles of highways
to break, while her sister town, Web
ster, can only claim about 30.

Who and Where is Bishop7

The officials are becoming more and
more impressed with the fact that Jim
Burns, Oscar Wade and Charles Bish-
op are one and the same man, whose
true name is Charles Bishop, suspected
of being the Camp Verde murderer.
He is said to have worked for time
near blackberry under the name of
Jim Burns. The officers are also be-
coming more and more convinced that
the man of many names is connected
either remotely or directly with the
:'Black jack gang of outlaws. The
head of the gang made trip through
this country, coming down overland
from Utah last April. He was seen by
deputy sheriff at Walnut creek and
later by another one at Jerome juno
tion but was not recognized at the
time by either of these officers. The
lack of recognition was mutual, for If
the notorious outlaw had known of the
official capacity of these men, it might
have aroused his suspicion and led him
to have INDUCED ia his usual pastime
of taking a shot at them. All trace of
the man was lost at jerome Junction.
1t is known that he did not take up his
residence there during his visit, bat he
succeeded in successfully covering up
his trail when he took his departure
from there. 1t is highly probable that
his course took him through the Verde
Valley and the proposed raid on the
Camp Verde store may have been plan
ned at that time. The only thing about
this theory is the fact that so far no
trace has been obtained to connect any
but one man with the crime.
While the officials are pretty we'll
convinced in regard to the above facts
and theories Of the Camp Verde mur-
ders, there is one point in which they
are perfectly at sea. and that is as to
the present whereabouts of the much
wanted man. While they still express
hope of their getting him, the lmme-
diate prospect of doing so is by no
means very fiattering.-Journai- -idiner.

A Grass Valley dispatch says: The
Osborn Hill and Crown Point mines
have been bought by W. B. Bourn Of
San Francisco. Bourn is largely i'm
terested in the Empire and Omaha
Consolidated mines. He has conf
dence that the mines will pay. They
will be opened up and worked. Many
of the best miners have confidence in
the Osborn Hill mine 1t was worked
by the company about six years ago.
Giayson was then at the head of the
company. Much money was spent on
the surface and little under ground,
incompetent management and labor
troubles caused the closing of the
mine. George W. Starr is to be gen.
eral manager. He will arrive here
shortly to begin prospecting work on
the mines. A new hoisting and pump
ing plant is to be erected. The Crown
Point mine was purchased today. 1t
is situated near the junction of Nevada
City and the Maryland mine roads.
The mine is only 4Ju feet deep. yet
gold to the value of lIn,oO 8 has been
extracted. The ledge will average from
five to seven feet and will pay on an
average of LIS ton. 1t was sold by A.
Gauthier to French capitalists few
years ago, but never worked to any
depth.
