PICKPOCKETS WORK.

Samuel Farnswurth, Of Duxbury,
had narrow escape from losing
watch on Thursday through the work
of pickpockets at the circus grounds.
Feeling somebody touching him near
his watch pocket he looked down and
was just in time TO seize the wrist Of
man who had just touched" him
for his watch, Farnsworth secured
his watch but the pickpocket escaped.
The man who tried his skill on
Farnsworth was in company with two
other men. Descriptions were given
to the proper officials and Grand Jur-
or Gates issued warrants for the three
men under dummy names. Deputy
Sheriff Anterior has the warrants
and has today followed the circussto
White River Junction where he will
endeavor to get hold of the trio.

FIRST ANNIVERSARY.

Rome, Aug. The first anniversary
of the election of Pope Plus x to the
chair of st. Peter was observed at the
Vatican today.
Early this morning His Holiness
celebrated high mass, after which he
received his immediate encourage in
audience. He declared himself to be
tired, almost sick of the political
wrangle with which he has had to
contend since he was elevated TO the
head of the church. Oongratulatory
kilograms were received from the
heads of nearly all the European
States. 1t is stated, however, that
the number of private kilograms re-
ceived today is less than half
those which were sent to Pope Leo
XIII on the occasion of his celebra-
tion of elevation to the papacy.

MEN S1NDBA COED.

AS Frederick a. Spencer and a COM
paion we're on their way home from
the circus on Thursday night they
were brutality assailed by gang Of
men just outside of the circus grounds
on the Berlin side. They had been
watching the circus loading on the
cars and Mr.. Spencer had been talking
with one of the men. who was stand
ing at the entrance of the grounds as
foreman of some kind.
They started for home and had just
gone nnder the electric light short
distance from the lemonade and fruit
stands when they were attacked by a
number of men. Mr.. Spencer's COM
panion was ahead and heard somebody
from the dark say, "Let's lay them
out" The next second man grabbed
him and the two grappled and fell to
the ground. This assailant got the
worst of the deal as Mr.. Spenoer's
companion landed on top and Selling
stone chucked it into his face. He
saw three or four men rushing up TO
attack him but ran and escaped giving
the alarm. Mr.. Spencer had shorter
and less effective fight. He suddenly
saw some men around him and was
conscious of severe blow on the
found the foreman he had talked with
pouring water on his face and at
tempting to bring him to. Several
officers on the grounds were sum-
moned but could find no trace of the
assailants. Later Chief Mcmahon and
other officers went down but their
search was equally fruitless.
Both of the men attacked say there
were negroes and white men in the
gang but it was so dark they could
not describe them. Mr.. Spencer has
two black eyes and his upper lip is
badly cut. He says he thinks his as
sailants were scared away before rob-
bling him as he found So pill still in
his pocket. He thinks the foreman
must have heard the confusion and
gone to his rescue.
Charles g. Smith, who lives on ST..
Paul street and employed by William
Miller in this city, was roughly
handled Mt the circus grounds that
evening. Mr.. Smith had attended
the evening entertainment and went
to the railroad track to see the circus
train load up. Little is known of
what happened but he was brought
into the home of Madam Nicholas, a
physician was called and also his
wife. He had evidently been very
roughly handled. He is now at Hea-
ton Hospital with a broken jaw and
other bruises. He is as com Portable
as could be expected at this time.
