P. Casey and Edward A. Knapp were
awakened by the burglar alarm in

ton of Main street and Railroad ave-
nue..
Mr.. Knapp was first to get out and
hurried down Main street. Mr.. Casey
and Mr.. Shirley came up Railroad ave-
nue. and the three men met in front
of the store. They saw that the win
dow was broken in front. They heard
noises inside. Mr.. Shirley stood on
one side of the window with a revolver
and Mr. Knapp on the other side with
a double-barrel shotgun.
Mr. Casey stood one side, well armed,
and told the thief to come out. He
asked if he could come out through the
door, and Mr. Casey said he had better
come out the way he went in.
The burglar made a great leap
through the window and landed on his
feet. Mr.. Knapp and Mr.. Shirley at
once took hold of him and asked what
his name was. He said it was Fred
Rivers of White River Junction; but it
was later learned that he was Levi

He was taken in a team to Grafton

morning and pleaded guilty to the

enable him to take the competitive ex-
aminations that he might, if he passed,

Dor.

At Halifax they had a seaman's and
engineers cutter race. Excitement ran
high and there was much betting, some
even betting their clothes when they
had ventured everything else. The sea-

good many engineers went about with
scant allowance of clothes for some
time.
There are about one hundred cadets
on board, and when they left Boston
there were one hundred and fifty appli-

Youngsters Almost Succeed in Remov-
ing it Piecemeal Before Discovered.
Some time ago, when License Com
missioner M. Y. B. Jefferson had a
house stolen from his land at the corner
of Belmont street and Oak avenue, peo-
pie OF Worcester were considerably sur
prised that it could be done without in
reference by the police, but yesterday
another surprise was sprung, when a
barn owned by the Dewey estate was
almost taken away by the time the po-
lice arrived.
The barn had stood on the corner oe
Lamartine and Washington streets for
a good many years, and has been for
some time a landmark. Occasionally,
when business was dull for the fire de-
partment, the old barn would get on
fire by a few sparks falling on nc
shingled roof.
1t has been unoccupied for some time
and yesterday noon was standing, and
looked almost as prosperous as the day
it was built. Two hours later it was a
pile of ruins, and the youngsters in the
neighborhood had succeeded in getting
away VI IL " Tic Iul4lN

purchased from the wreck of hurri-
cane.
BY the time the police got around the
youngsters had disappeared, and Officer
Dillon telephoned Francis H. Dewey,
president of the Consolidated about the
matter, and he decided that he would
allow the youngsters to take away the
barn as long as they had thrown It to
the ground.
Had the youngsters worked little
quicker all trace Of the old building
would have disappeared, and once more
Chief of Police James NJ brennan
would have been called on to find a

not have to deal with the matter
