FOLLOWED
SOON AFTER ROBBERY

John Madden, 20 years old and John
Moriarty, II years of age, were arrest
ed yesterday morning at 5 o'clock, on
the charge of breaking and entering
and larceny of liquors from the saloon
of M. A. Taylor on Shrewsbury Street.
The alleged break and theft occurred
an hour previous to the arrest which
was made by officers John Dunn and
Alfred Harper. 1t is alleged by the
police that the two young men under
arrest with another named Merrill
broke in the boards which covered a
broken window in the show window at
the street entrance to the saloon. Once
with the boards off entrance was easily
made and half dozen quart bottles
of sealed liquors were purloined.
The break was discovered by some
people in the vicinity and they at once
notified officer John Dunn who lives
in the neighborhood. That officer went
to the scene of the break and notified
officer Alfred Harper. Both officers
investigated and learned that the pris-
oners with companion had been in
the vicinity about the time the break
occurred. In fact officer John Dunn
had few moments previous seen the
three in company pass his house. The
officers looked for Madden and went
young man under the influence of IL
quor, asleep on the door step. Near at
hand in the yard under a pile of dust
and dirt a quart bottle of sealed liquor
was found.
Moriarty, also showing indications Of
having been chummy with Old John
Barleycorn, was found wandering
about Shrewsbury Street. He had no
liquor outside of his skin. The other
fellow, Merrill believed to be implica-
ted in the break could not be located.
Both young men under arrest stren-
uously objected to being arrested and
protested their innocence of the charge
of breaking into the saloon and pilfer-
ing therefrom. Later on, Madden turn
ed the blame onto the shoulders of the
smaller and younger boy, Moriarty.
He said that Moriarty broke the boards
and being of the slighter build, went
through the opening and secured the
liquor which he passed to the waiting
persons outside. Moriarty still chung

not figure in the break at ALL

young men acknowledged their guilt.

suits. She used five boxes before she

a Juan, Porto Rico, March 1O.-A
serious riot occurred here Yesterday.
Five artillerymen and Corporal His
cock charged a mob, fired a volley into
the air and rescued School Superin-
tendent Armstrong, who was besieged
in a house by a riotous crowd of prob
ably 1900 persons who shouted Down
with the Americans" and similar cries.
The excitement originated in a trivial
school incident. The superintendent
reprimanded a girl ten years of age
for disobedience. marched her to the
front from the rear of the schoolroom.
Her dress caught in a desk and was
torn, n the girl reported to her
mother that she had been kicked and
abused. This excited the girls mother
and sensational stories were circu-
lated,
With the Result
that when the school children were
dismissed n number of boys gathered
and paraded the streets. They were
joined by many loafers and full grown
men, and it became necessary for the
police to escort Supt. Armstrong from
the ~schoolhouse to his home. The
superintendent and policemen were
stoned, and as the crowd constantly
increased. h Americans sought ref
uge in the In~tendencia building. A
number of persons from the crowd
succeeded in entering the building. but
they were elected by employees and

Don't he Drowned I'm Your Calling.
A European traveller tells of the fol-
lowing epitaph which he head on a
tombstone in England:
Here lies . He was born a
man but died a grocer"
The man had disappeared in his
calling. We often find that a mans
vocation has swallowed him; that 1t
has completely overwhelmed him, that
there is nothing lett OF him for any
person outside his occupation.
1t is a contemplate estimate of a vo-
cation to regard it as the means or
getting a living. The man who is not
greater than his calling, who does not
overtop his vocation, so that it runs
over on all sides, is not successful. "A
man should be greater thar the books
ne writes, greater thar n speech he
makes. than any house he builds, or
any sermon he preaches.-Success.
