PAN-AMERICAN HINT.
Quick and inexpensive Method.

The great Pan American Exposition has
realized fully the expectations OF the man
ayers, while the great public Is more than
pleased with the artistic and inventive dis
plays provided.
The creative genius apparent in the
architecture OF the many buildings is with
out equal and the effects obtained through
the marvellous color decorations are sim
ply astounding. The landscape work has
devolved the grounds into a perfect para

superior in comparison are they to those Of
all other expositions.

ANXIOUS TO SETTLE

Deputy Sheriff Dana Il, Bruce OF Hills
boro, n. H., arrived in the city on Wednes-
day afternoon, and with Chief Demeritt
called at once upon Richard Leavitt, de-
tanned In jail on The charge OF the larceny
OF the horse of Dr. Griffith of Hillsboro.
Leaviit was reading the local papers when
the officers approached, and was somewhat
excited over the printed accounts OF his
exploits. He told the officers that he had
stolen nothing but one would think, by the
notoriety he had won here, that he had
stolen all the horses in Vermont. The Of
ficers suggested that there was at least one
horse he had taken without paying for and
for that reason he was in trouble. The
prisoner replied he could do q land Office
business in buying old iron II he was out Of
Jail now that he had been given 80 much
free advertising.
Sheriff rruce said that while he did not
consider Leavitt horse thief, he was a
man who was very Needless in his business
methods. He made business OF buying
and selling old iron. He would pay dol
lar down for lot; perhaps he would pay the
balance due-and perhaps not.
Leavitt's home Is In North Enfield, N. H.,
where he has a wife and four children and
| also brother, who has some property.
He has left some unsettled bills where he
| lived, some of which have been paid, and
some Of which he still owes. He did not
| steal the horse OF DR.. Griffith by breaking
and entering, but bought the animal agree
ing to pay by May 81 or return 1t. DIR Griffith
waited until June 6. and then secured a
body writ on the charge OF larceny. The
ugly knife found under the seat Of Leavitts
wagon was one he probably traded for
somewhere and the officer believes that
Leavitt traded for the horse he has here.
Leavitt wants to stay here and close up
his iron deal and desires to settle up with
DIR. Griffith and those whom he owes here.
He talked with his brother at Enfield over
the telephone this morning, and the officer
expects the brother will arrive here this az
| ternoon and settle up the affair.
Leavitt pays compliment to Jsiler Ira
| cy. He said he had not struck SO good q
boarding place in long time. 1t was how
ever, too combining and while there were
bars all around him he couldn't get drink.

EXCITEMENT In BARRE.

About two weeks ago the italian consul
at New York sent Eugene Rugoili to Barre
to learn, II possible, something in regard to
the strength OF the anarchists in that city 4.
He quietly pursued his investigation until
Tuesday evening when his identity was dis
covered by one Of his countrymen.
The intelligence was quickly circulated
through the italian colony that another spy
was in their midst and excitement ran high
in new Italy. About thirty Italians and
socialists captured Rugoili, took him to the
socialist hall where he was photographed
made to sign certain papers and was then
given until tonight to get out OF the State.
Word was sent to States Attorney Hoar
that the man was imprisoned in the hall
Mr.. Hoar sent several constables and police
to the scene, rescued Rugoil, and took hin
to the States attorneys Office Mr.. Hoal
brought the man to Montpelier on Wed.

the metal trades association in saying
that the question of hours and wages
