SNUG BERTH
FOR PELTIER.
At Least the Wise Ones Say that
Is the Meaning Of the Bill in
Legislature.

The house Of assembly at Trent on
hns passed the bill introduced short
time ago by Assemblyman Fordvce, of
this county. allowing the prosecutor
of tho pleas to appoint two detectives
for the county work instead OF one as
now. The bill now goes to the senate.
1t is pretty generally understood that
Detective r. A. Peltier, OF this city,
is slntcd for the new place. He has
done considerable efficient work for
both Prosecutor Berdine and his pre-
decessor, and has been of great assist
ance to the new county detective,
Frank Mulvey, who succeeded, on
March / Johr Ferguson. Mulvey is
not n police officer and can only make
an arrest when deputized by the PRO
secutor. FERGUSON was state officer
and could make an arrest OH sight
Mulvey gets ST. day for every day
he works for the prosecutor.
Peltier has taken q prominent par'
in theCor dova case, he being the one
TO arrest Miss Bovine in the train
when the couple reached New Bruins
