inspector Stone viii Bring
Back Armenian
Forger.

Inspector w. ]. E. Stone will prob
ably leave Wednesday for st. Paul. to
bring hack Hachadoar Manoogina,
alias Hachadoar Tsotian, of whose ar
rest the Worcester police were notified
Saturday evening in a telegram from
that city. Manoogian is wanted by
the police for the forgery of an order
on the Peoples Savings Bank Of Wor-
cester for 1925, the story of which was
told exclusively in The Spy shortly at
ter it occurred. 1t is alleged that Sept.
6 Manoogian went to the home of Ma
noog Shoshanian, broke open a trunk
and stole his bank books, which con
tanned entries of deposits amounting
to over $500.
THE GAME HE WORKED.
He took the book to the Peoples Saw
| ings Bank and asked to be allowed tc
withdraw some money, claiming that
| Shooshanian sent him. The teller gave
him a money order for $225, the amount
! he asked leave to withdraw, and tolc
him to go to Shooshanian and have hin
place his signature on 1t. ShooshaniaT
being unable to write, the teller TOLD
Monaghan to get the man TO put HI!
mark ON it.. He returned later will
the order, bearing what he said wa'

was paid over to him. When the pc
lice heard of the story, they managed
to trace Monoogiap to a pawnshop il
this city, and found that he had re
deemed some clothes he had pawned fol
$25, and also learned that he had taber
a train for Chicago. From Chicago
he went to Fort Smelling, where he en-
listed in the Forty-fifth regiment, U
S.V. The inspectors learned of this
and he was captured Saturday.
The officials of the bank were not al
first particularly anxious to have him
captured, but when they heard that
shooshanian had brought suit against
them for 1925, they entered into the
spirit of the chase, and now are re-
| ioicing over his capture. Manoogiar
does NOT bear a very good record with
the Worcester police. In 1897 he was
arrested for larceny, and sent to the
Massachusetts reformatory. He was
born. according to his own statements
in Armenia, in 1875 but Inspectors P
O'Day and Stone are inclined to think
| that he is much older.

ST. PAUL'S LYcEUM.
Elaborate Arrangements for the Har-
vest Festival.

Glaporate arrangements TOR the Har-
vest Festival.
The st. Paul's Lyceum met at it's
quarters on Chatham street yesterday
afternoon and decided to arrange for a
series of whist and pool tournaments.
The following committee was appointed
to fix the date and other details: Pat
rick Ryan and James D. Degnan. The
athletic association presented the So
ciety the banner won at the recent field
day Of the Springfield Diocesan union
at Westfield. The banner is a very
handsome one and now adorns the
quarters of the Lyceum with other tro-
plies won on the track and field The
banner has a green background on one
side and the words, "St. Paul's Lyceum
Worcester, Mass" inscribed in gold let
ters with the emblem of the union also
in gold, with the initials, &c. T. A. u
of A" The background of the other side
is white with the words, won at West
field in goldletters.
The harvest festival which the So
ciety is conducting promises to be a
great success. The two teams who are
entered in the ticket selling contest are
disposing of a large number of tickets

ness, you have got to strike the proper
chord. Now, I went to see Peter
Stuyvesant,' the play which William
H. Crane and Stuart Robson put on
in New York short time ago and it
proved to be a failure at the first pro-
duction. From a literary standpoint,
1t was first rate, and anybody who ever
read Washington Irving, would like it
immensely. 1t was built up well and
was good copy of the writings of the
author. But 1t didn't strike the thea
ire goers. The old Holland Dutch ac-
cent used in the play and the manners
of that people, did not take with the
audience, and 1 feel certain the old
Hessian Dutch such as some Dutch
comedians use, would have fitted in
nicely, and not only take we'll, but
would be sure to strike the funny chord
of every person in the audience.
American people want to see comedy
and If you can say and do funny things
it is sure to be a success. I have ta-
ken my play, 'McSorley's Imitation,
and cut it down to 35-minute sketch,
and I have also tried to make 35-min-
utes' laughter for every person in the
audience"
Mr.. Harrigan is a. great admirer of
Admiral Dewey, and spent day
watching the admiral and the demon
stration in New York when he arrived
at home. "I am glad to see that the
politicians did not succeed in getting
hold of him I knew an old fellow
down in Jersey once" he said, who
was offered nomination against a re-
publican, but he refused. He was pre-
vailed upon by his friends and kept re-
fusing. Finally, being pushed for an
answer, he said: I stole cabbage from
Jerry Sullivan once, and If l run, I
would be afraid some of the other fell
lows would tell me. about it,"
In Mr.. Harrigan's company is George
Merritt, who was with him when he
first met Tony Hart in Chicago. and
Dave Brahm, son of old Dave Brahm,
who was such a favorite with American
theatre goers a number of years ago.

in HARD LUCK.

Three children, one Of them blind,
John, George and LYDIA Dupre, between
the ages of 10 and 10 years old, begged
nights lodging from Lieut. Johnson
at station 1 about 10 o'clock last night.
The children belong in Providence and
came TO Worcester some time ago. The
mother, in order to gain a living in the
world, taught her youngsters to sing
and for some time past they have been
able to pick up enough money on the
streets singing and playing.
Since they arrived in Worcester all
three are common sights on the street.
George, the oldest boy, is blind and has
been led around the streets by his lit
tie sister. Last night their father,
meeting the little Ones attempted to
make them go to train at the union
station. They refused and ran away
from him.
Afraid to start towards their home,
they ran to the station and asked Lieut..
Johnson for a nights lodging. They
were given over to the care of the ma
tron, Mrs. Sawtelle. Their mother is
not expected in Worcester until today,
and her children will be held until she
gets here.

ABBOTT OPENS UP.
Fires the First Gun in His Independent
Campaign.

Fires the First Gunin His Independent
Campaign.
Thomas P. Abbott fired the first sun
in his personally conducted independ-
ent campaign for alderman, from the
rear steps of the city hall, yesterday af-
ternoon.
Mr.. Abbott appeared on his impromp-
tn platform about 80 minutes before the
hour of his address, and stationed two
small boys at either side of the step
from which he was to address his au-
dience. One of the boys supported
miniature United States flag, while the
other held the red flag Of socialism, eI1i-
blazoned with the initials of the SOCIAL
list labor party.
A policeman and three citizens COM
nrised the audience when Mr.. Abbott
began. but within a few minutes an au-
dience of about 100 had gathered, aid
were drinking in the eloquence Of the
prospective alderman. In opening Mr.
Abbott explained what the two flags
stand fer. He claimed that the red
flag has always been a danger signal,
and THAI as the emblem of the socialist
labor party it meant much in the way
of danger to the capitalist.
Mr.. Abbott also spent some time in
exnlaining why he left the ranks of tile
marty. He was working for the Con-
solidated Street Railway company last
winter. and it was one Of two things,
etop work in the cause Of socialism CIR
lose bread and butter. He could not af-
FORD TO lose his place at the time, and
for that reason gave up all hope of
running for office last year.
Although out of the local section, he
had spoken and worked for it's inter
asts all along. Now the members want
him back in the fold, but if he was
not a good socialist last spring, he is
not now and he will not listen tn their
offers. Mr.. Abbott will work for the
party, however, although malntaialng

PERRY's HOUNDS.

r. D. Perry will enter his crack fox
hounds Jupiter and Orator in the field
trials of the Brunswick Fur club, which
take place at Barre, beginning tomor-
row. They will be entered in the all
age stake, which will be run for three
days, beginning Wednesday. Entries
for the event close tomorrow evening.
Harry Rose will enter his hound Pelter
in the all-age stake also. All the dogs
are good ones. Orator has competed
before and won diplomas for good work
on the trail, and so has Pelter. Two
years ago he took a prize for tone and
speed. He ran fox Saturday in Charl-
ton, and his work showed that he has
lost none of the qualities which won
him prize two years ago.

OUT FOR QUAIL.

By the break of day this morning
over a score of Worcester hunters viii
be in the brush. Today opens the sea-
son on quail, and the law is now eff
on everything. Quail hunting won't lie
very successful for a considerable pei :
iQd yet, but hunters are anxious to
bring in some of the birds as early as
possible in the open season. They are
waiting for a severe rain storm to
make perfect hunting conditions. A
hard days rain will completely strip
the trees of foliage, and enable hunters
to get a shot at game birds. Thus far
it has been difficult work, and only the
best brush shots in the city have re
ported bags of any size. With the law
off everything in the shape of game
birds and the leaves on the ground, BIS
ger bags are looked for before the week
Is over.
