RAID MADE YESTERDAY


There's going to be devil Of a
bust-up before the month is out, boys"
declared Chief Of Police Brown to his
force Saturday, as he surveyed the al
most immaculate police court record for
the month Of July. And sure enough,
there was. Between that time and this
morning one after another Of the force
brought in various offenders, supple
mented by the sheriff's department, un.
til total of eight prisoners had been
arraigned, with charges which filed three
pages Of the court record.
As the result Of raid on an Italian
picnic at Townsend's grove, participated
in by policemen and sheriifs, yesterday
afternoon, two men were in court this
morning. The picnic was at its height
at one o'clock when the small army
Of officers hove in sight. They seized
two half barrels and one quarter barrel
Of beer, eight Jugs Of sour wine, and
along with it three pals, 25 glasses, and
some rifles and cartridges. They didn't
get the stuff without some rough-house,
as the picniclSers didn't wish to give
up tile stuff. There were many pro-
testations, and during the excitement
Antonio Cavalazzi jumped for rifle.
The officers Jumped with him, and
got grip on the gun at the same
time. There was nothing to show that
Cavalazzi had any intentions Of using
the weapon, but the officers wanted to
be on the safe side Of the gun. lie
was finally hand-cuffed.
Cayalazzi was charged with breach Of
the peace in court this morning, and
denied that he had any bad intentions
in jumping for the gun. He will be
tried on the charge tomorrow morning.
Paul Mainini looked to the officers
as If he was the one dealing out the
liquor, and he was arrested. In court
today Mainini was charged with two
offenses, keeping and furnishing. He
pleaded not guilty and viii be given

ty7 when arraigned for intoxication, and
John Jarvis, arrested by Officer Carle,
said the same. Each was fined S. with
costs Of S7.99.
Andrew DeRoscher and Ellery La
Belle, liveryman, got into 50 heated an
argument over the driving of horse
that the former resorted to physical
force to fill out the intervals when his
word power failed him. He decorated
LaBelle's eve with black fringe and
kicked another of the LaBelles in the
shins, just for emphasis. It seems that
DeR0seher hired d horse at the LaBelle
stable Saturday and brought it back in
such a condition that the owner pro-
tested DeRoscher gave himself up to
the police when he heard he was wanted.
He paid S47.29 for the privilege of Civ
ing a black eye and kicking shin.
William Duehafme, arrested by Officer
Hamel, pleaded guilty to second Of
fense Of intoxieation, and was assessed
S15 with costs OF S9.99, which came
pretty near being a mark-down from
S25.
John Wilson was picked up by Officer
Hame Saturday night. He readily
pleaded guilty to second offense Of
intoxication, and as the fracture Of the
law was less than six months from the
previous offense, Wilson was called upon
to make disclosure. He disclosed on
himself States Attorney Jackson sent
Wilson's memory tracing out the course
of his travels Saturday
"Were you in Montpelier Saturday,
was the first question asked. Wilson
admitted to the offense, but said that
he didn't get anything down there. Nor
could he get anything in Barre, for 'they
know me- he said. His supply came
from Lawrence, Mass, he ordered it
and paid SIS for it, receiving it by ex-
press. The supply included whiskey,
brandy, gin, rum and several other
kinds.
sDo you know how much you drank?"
asked the states attorney.
II drank too much" was the nearest
estimate Wilson could make.
He was fined the usual amount for
a second olfense.
