been spared much Of the anguish of child

into the muscles Of the abdomen. 1t gives

THE STOLEN BOOKS.

EDITOR STAR: In yesterdays Star
it is said, on the authority of Mr.. Aus
tin, that his desk had been broken
open during his absence, and that his
books have been stolen. We desire to
give a most emphatic denial to that
sweeping and serious accusation.
No desk has been broken open, and
no books have been stolen, in the rooms
of Francis Murphy Club No. /, for the
very simple reason that the drawers
of said desk have never had any fix
ture, to lock them, and consequently
have been always open, and books have
never been stolen, for the still simpler
reason, that Mr.. Austin has never been
in possession Of any books, as presi-
dent and manager of Murphy hall.
The books" that Mr. Austin found
last night, are nothing more than sun
dry bills, which club secretary Noyes,
had considerably, taken away from
the investigation of prying eyes.
In justice to our janitOr in whom
we place the greatest confidence, and
to the members of the board of direc-
tors, we respectfully ask you to publish
the above.
