POLICE COURT D0INGs
Committed to State School For Boys
 For Breaking Into Saloon.


 For Breaking Into Saloon
 Three Italian boys, named Tony Varnelli, William Spilloni and Frank Sochetti, were before Judge Burpee in the city court this morning charged with trying to break into the saloon of Burns & Miller on the corner of North Main and Cherry streets. Mich ael Claffey, delivery clerk at M. J.. Fogg's grocery on North Main street, stated that he. heard the crash of glass in the rear of the above named saloon about 9 o'clock and immediately after he saw three boys run from behind the saloon down the street. He recognized Spilloni as one of the three. The rest Of the evidence went to show that Spilloni tried to raise money to release his father from jail by getting up a raffie for a clock and a stove, and that if he could raise 30 cents he would have enough. The idea of breaking into the saloon occurred to him first. The court thought Varnelli and Sochet- ii tried to make scapegoat of Spilloni. He had to release them and he com mitted the other boy to the State School for Boys.
 Samuel and John Dawry settled a case for theft for ST each, and William Killian paid $5 for breach of the peace.

POST OFFICE BURGLARS.
Blow Up Safe at sufneld, but Fright
 ened Away.

ened Away.
 Sufield, May 2O.--A bold but un- successful burglary was attempted on the post office here at 2:20 yesterday morning Jonas Thompson, living next to the town hall building, in which the post office is located, heard loud explosion and looking out saw two men. He says one was a heavy, large man. He could see only the head Of the other, who had on black der by hat MT Thompson gave an alarm, but the burglars fled and left their tools behind them. An examination showed that they had forced the front door. There is always light burning in the office and the curtains are left up, but the men did not take any pre- cautions and left the light burning while at work. They had a sledge hammer, crowbar and chisels which had been stolen from M. G. Dibble's blacksmith shop. They also had three horse blankets, presumably stolen. With the sledge hammer the men broke open the knob to the combina- tion of the safe, filled all the crevices around the door of the safe, forced in the spindle to the combination knob and then poured in nitro glycerine. Af- ter covering the safe with the blan- kets, we'll wet to deaden the noise of the explosion, they set off the charge. But the effort was failure as the explosion caused the top of the door to bulge out and the force was spent. The safe was rendered unfit for use and cannot be opened until an expert arrives.
 This office was burglarized once be- fore, nine years ago, last November, but the safe at that time did not stand the racket, and the. burglars carried off their plumber. The safe that was operated upon this time weighs 2,40O pounds and contains an inner safe of burglar proof steel. It cost between S400 and $500 and is the property of Postmaster Jobes and A. c. Allen, his assistant. MT Allen said yesterday morning that there was little in it of value. No clue has been found as to who the burglars were or where they came from, but it is thought by some that they are the same men who oper- ated at Portland and Cromwell early | Wednesday morning.

If you furnish him With q wall paper poor in quality, cheap ID design, he can't do good job. Wall paper is little different than anything else. You don't buy it by weight.

Springfield, O., Feb. 25.-The war BE-

thinking that George E. McCord Of

door in their endeavors to enter the
room, when all of sudden McCord

students will be made an example of.
