Barber Shop Rified of Razors and

SClSSOISs
 Edward O'Neil, the barber at the lower end of Church street, will be very careful who he hires to work for him in the future, as his experience Of yesterday must have taught him lesson. A man whom it is said was an Italian came to O'Neils shop yes terday and asked for work. O'Neil needed a man and he put him to work. Everything went all right until O'Neil went to supper last night, when the Italian disappeared, taking with hiln the stock of raZors and scissors which were in the barber shop. When O'Ne1l came back and found both barber and stock gone to say that he was sur prised would not be doing the case justice. He immediately notified Sheriff Sweeney, and he and the sheriff spent last night in looking for the bar Der. This should be q lesson to the business men of Naugatuck to hire home labor and then if anything hap pens they will know who the person that is responsible for the happening is and can easily catch him. There are plenty of young men loating about town who would be only too willing to go to work if they got the chance.
