REWARD COMES HERE.
Police Too Foxy for the
Franklin Officers.

John Kingsley, a well dressed young
fellow, was arrested yesterday after
noon on Front street by Inspectors
O'Day and Stone. He was locked UP
at station 1 on charge of being a de-
serter from the United States marine
corps. Kingsley, who belongs in
Franklin, is said to have deserted from
the marine corps last summer, and a
description was sent to the Worcester
police and posted up in the guard room
at station l.
Saturday the Franklin police asked
the local inspectors to be on the look
out for Kingsley, and yesterday he was
sighted and arrested. The Franklin
authorities claim they have a warrant
for his arrest, and asked that he be
sent to that town as soon as captured.
In looking the matter over, the local
inspectors discovered that a reward of
500 is offered for every deserter from
the marine service, and they have de-
cided that although the Franklin police
are all right, they will send Kingsley
to Boston themselves and have the long
green come to Worcester. = If returned
by the Franklin authorities, the local
inspectors would be out $780, but now
they will have $40 apiece.

ner and Canterbury streets. The bur-
glary at Herbert L. Dakin's store, HOO

Palmer of the Sunshine of Paradise
Alley company, had a case of threat
ening placed on file. 1t was brought
against him by Frank oliver, another
member of the company. Palmer did

but he did it, and consequently was
released.

the regular faction had triumphed over
the De Leonites. The caucus was
called to order by C. E. Fenner. The
polls closed at o'clock. The total
number of votes cast was eight. With
the exception of Charles G. Marcy,
whose name appeared on both tickets,
for ward committee, the De Leonites
received but three votes each.
The caucus in ward was held in
the Oxford street school house. At
7.30 o'clock the janitor and two report
ers anXiously waited for the socialists
to make their appearance. One man
poked his head in the door and inquired
if it was the ward 7 polling place. On
being answered in the negative, the
head disappeared, and there was an
other weary wait.
Finally, two socialists meandered in.
Ami al 'reat enthusiasm, Thomas P. Alb
bolt was chosen chairman and Charles
A. Piper secretary. The voting was
slow, but the intervening time was ia
ken up with discussion between the
chair and the one voter who remained
on the floor, as to the respective merits
of trump and kangaroo" George
w. Cheney was very popular, having
his name inscribed on two sets of ball
lots. Just before 9 o'clock the polls
were closed, and the clerk proceeded to
count the votes. One was rejected as
being cast by a rank outsider

JUMPED TO VICTORY,
Kangaroo Socialists
Defeat the De Leon
tie Ticket.
PR0LETARIANS IN CAUCUS.
The Skunks Carried the
Day Only in Ward
Two.

Caucuses for the election of dele
gates to the municipal convention OF
the socialist-labor party, were held last
night. No nominations were made for
school committee or common council.
"Proletarians of the world, unite" is
the motto of the socialists, yet among
themselves they fight and scratch and
anathematize one another as merrily
as the controversialists of the middle
ages used to take issue on the phil
osophy Of Aristotle
'Skunks" is what the anti-De Leon
ties call the faction that stands by the
old national committee "Kangaroos'
is the nickname given the boilers.
Only in one ward did the De Leon
ties have the ghost of a show to win.
This was in ward 2. The ticket headed
by Edward S. Goodwill for mayor and
P. Albin Forsstrom, John T. Har-
graves, Walter j. Hoar, Andrew c.
Valance, John T. Youngjohns, Leroy
ID. Usher, for aldermen, was indorsed
The "kangaroos" turned this ticket
down in the other wards and elected
unpledged delegates, save in wards 5
and 8, where there were no caucuses.
The kangaroos had no opposition in
ward l. The polls were open until $780,
and seven votes were cast, all for the
kangaroo candidates. There is a not
able absence of skunks in this ward"
remarked a caucus attendant, land 1
doubt if they are strong enough here
to create an odor."
GRAIN OF COMFORT.
The De LecA faction won out by two
votes at the ward caucus the total
number Of votes cast being &C. The
polls were opened at SIS, and remained
open for 30 minutes At the end Of
that time the count showed the De
Leon faction, headed by Edgar S.
Goodell, to have IA votes, while the
kangaroos headed by Sumner H. Ma
son, had only IL. Mr.. Goodwill made
a short speech of thanks, and the eau
Gus adjourned. Just as the voters were
leaving the hall, four skunks appeared
but were too late,
Five voters rallied around the ban
ner of the socialist labor party at the
ward caucus in the basement OF the
Waldo street police station and as
three of these were necessary to act as
caucus officers, the multitude" that
occupied the space outside Of the rail-
ing consisted of two men.
There were two tickets introduced at
the caucus. One Of them was pledged
TO vote for the De Leonite candidates
The other was anti-De Ieonite and un-
pledged. The anti-De Leonite candi-

convention and as ward committeeman

Shall We Have Better LIghts2

We understand that the visit of Mr.
John Nj. Spots to Tazewell yesterday was
connected with the scheme the Messrs.
Spots Bros. have for erecting an electric
plant at this place. We are also informed
that proposition has been submitted to
the town authorities for furnishing the
necessary lights for lighting the town at
$4,000 a year. This may seem large sum
to pay out for lighting the town, but as a
business proposition it is not go large as it
first appears. 1t is said that if the electric
plant is erected the company owning it
will pay revenues to the town to the
amount of about $259.00, OF which amount
5000 will be taxes on property and
$209.00 water taxes.
The town now expends $4,000 year,
or more, on lights, few coal oil lamps,
that furnish comparatively no light. This
$4,000 added to the $259O0 mentioned
above makes $459.OO; which, being taken
from the $4,000, the cost of electric lights,
leaves only S261. that would have to be
expended by the town as an additional
cost for lights. This extra amount would
not necessitate any increase in taxa
ton, in our judgment, as it could be saved
from the present revenues. Besides, the
el lection of an electric plant will be followed
with other enterprises, and the building
OF other houses, thereby increasing the
taxable values.
If we are correctly informed, we are of
opinion the town will make mistake in
not making contract with the parties in
question. This may be the only oppor-
tunity that we will have in years to get
electric lights. Our advice is, let us have
more and better lights.

the Filipino army has eliminated in the
open revolt of General Mascardo against
General Luna, second in command oi
Aguinaldo. Aguinaldo has ordered q
court,martial to try Mascardo.
Luna sent orders to Mascardo at Baco-
lar to hurry reinforcements to him just
before the battle of San Tomas, but Mas
cardo fatty refused to obey the order, and
sent back word that he would only take
orders from Agunaldo. Luna immediate
ly selected fifteen hundred of his best
troops and started for Bacolar to enforce
his order. Mascardo again refused to
obey the orders given by Luna. Both
armies formed in line of battle, but before
opening Luna gave Mascardo one more
chance. Colonel Arguilles was sent to
Mascardo with flag Of truce. Mascardo
still pei sisted in his refusal, but consented
to leave the question to Aguinaldo.
