POLICE WERE NOTIFIED.
Society Of Prevention of Cruelty 10 Children
In New York has the ChiId-She Told
Them She Left Home Because Her Par

to Live with them any Longer.

Chief of Police Burke, this morn
ing, received a letter from the New
York Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Children. 1t stated that

THIEVES HAVE Y.
AFREE HAND.
Woodbridge Citizens loud in
Their Complaint Of Condi-
lion of Affairs.
CRY FOR RELIEF:
Houses Robbed-Crops RUINED Chick en-
coops Looted and Fruit Disappears :
Eighteen Houses Entered In a 81 ole
Month and but one Arrest has been Made
ana No Convictions.
Special to the Evening Ne4Os.

Woodbridge, Aug. 29:-For three
years tho town of Woodbridge has
suffered from series Of burglaries
and thefts of live stock, poultry and
fruits and vegetables. AS many as
eighteen houses were entered in a
single month. 1.-Two stock has been
slaughtered within thirty feet of the
dNelliDg and the heavy carcass carried
away, Truck farmers, who make a
bare living from their labors, have
been robbed of whole seasons crop
in one night. Poor widows, who de-
pond upon a few fowls to eke out a
hard subsistence, have lost all the
contents of their hen houses between
sunset and sunrise. Timid women
have been awakened to find burglar
in their rooms. The loss foots up to
thousands of dollars and the damage
to the town in preventing new corners
from making their home therein, will
amount to thousands more.
During all these years there has
been but one arrest and not single
conviction. The citizens are asking
\" when is this thing to stop?" Where
are the lawfully appointed authorities? !?
The two efficient officers, which the
town committee furnishes, cannot
cover the vast territory comprised in
the township. They do well if they
successfully protect the warehouses Of
the merchants. Must the people con-
tinue to suffer until murder is added
to the crime or theft? Is there no
way for the authorities to turn in
order to compass this crying evil?
1t is said that the police have an
excellent plan but the authorities
will not back them up by furnishing
the necessary funds, although the
amount required is small. If some-
thing IL not done, and that right soon,
a mass meeting of citizens will be the
proper thing and steps taken to find
out where the responsibility lies.
1t is often said, "Let the law take
it's course. - There may be law, but
if beginning is not made no course
an be taken.
