HERoux ARRESTS P. W HAYES.
They Differ a. to tho Qualifications Of 4
Candidate for Office, and Hayes
10 Arrested.

Chief Of Police Heroux has again
let his temper and his political preju-
dices involve him Ia h disgraceful
episode. The present is but another
of the many incidents in which He
roux has been much too hasty in ex-
ercising his authority.
Early Monday morning P. w.
Hayes and Chief Heroux met near b.
G. Turner's store, and Hayes pro.
tested against the circulation Of
statements by Heroux that Fred
Cary, q candidate for Office OF city
clerk, was not capable or qualified
for performing the work OF the city
clerks Office. Cary is son-in-law Of
Mr.. Hayes, and the latter naturally
felt justified in maintaining the abili-
ty OF Cary to fill the Office. Heroux
at once engaged In q heated argu.
ment in the matter. and finally the
lie was passed by both parties.
Heroux then exercised his authority
as an officer and placed Mr.. Hayes
under arrest. The prisoner could
scarcely believe that an arrest was
intended, and showed an inclination
to resist. Sucn q course would have
been useless. but probably very sat-
isfactory to Heroux. Mr.. Turner.
who was present at this time, urged
Mr.. Hayes to accompany the officer,
and he did so. Heroux took him to
the city jail, and locked him in one
OF the cells although Justice Sheldon
waa about the premises, and the
prisoner could have been taken be-
fore him at once, II any charge could
be made against him. A little re-
Fiction and probably consultation
convinced Heroux that he had YIELD
ed too far to bad temper, and he
returned to the city hall and re-
leased Hayes.
No charge was filed or made, and
the chief simply decided to let the
prisoner go when he got ready to.

BACK FROM THE EAST.
P. ]. Tomelty Returns From 4 Visit to
Eastern Cities on Business
and Pleasure.

P.J Tomelty. proprietor of Tom
elty's Bazaar, has just returned from
on extended trip east, which included
a visit to nearly all the large cities
between here and the coast. '-'
The trip was one of business and
pleasure combined. and Mr.. Tomslty
comes back we'll satisfied with the
success OF his trip in q business
way and more than delighted with
the pleasure 1T afforded.
His business interests caused him
to visit Chicago, Philadelphia, New
York and many other places, and
he has gained some valuable know
ledge by visits to all the leading
manufacturers OF goods in his line.
Some time ago Mr.. Tomelty came to
the conclusion that by dealing
direct with the manufacturer he
could place his goods on the market
for much less than by dealing with
jobbers, and his trip resulted in a
large number Of orders being placed
for goods for his establishments.
Among the institutions visited were
bicycle, corset, cloak, glassware and
pottery factories, and some OF the
leading wooden mills and manufac-
turers of dress goods. These visits
gave the advantage of learning
what are the latest styles in these
lines, and he could therefore make
his purchases with the knowledge
that everything was new and as
near up to date as it is possible to
get. On pleasure bent he visited the
nations capital, and the pleasures
of the three days. visitin Washington
will long be remembered by him.
He there met Congressman Page
Morris, Senator Knute Nelson and
others from Minnesota, who spared
no pains to make his visit there
pleasant, and profitable in the sense
OF gaining knowledge. He was
shown through the White House,
visited all the departments OF the
government and was taken through
a great portion Of the city and It's
suburbs.
He thinks it the duty of every
American citizen to visit the nation's
capital for the knowledge that is to
be gained by so doing, and says
that he intends to repeat his visit
on the more extended time limit in
the near future.

dant's son, and which she afterward
gave to the defendant for safe keep
ing. The testimony showed at the
