James Whittle and Frank Parent
were apprehended at this station last
Thursday. word having been received
from down the road that they were
suspected of being connected with the
recent burglary at Mansfield. As
there was no evidence to show the
connection with the burglary the men
were brought before the borough
court, charged with trespass on the
railroad. Judge Heald made it five
days and costs, which will detain the
men about Is days. In the mean
time, unless new evidence is found, it
is probable that the prisoners can go
on their way rejoicing at the expira-
ion of their sentences.
The locations asked for by the

water privilege. some distance below
Crystal Lake, where the dam was
washed away a good many years ago,
did not wish to. have the road placed
where it would interfere with the
rebuilding of the dam in case it was
ever desired to use the privilege. As
this was q matter to be settled be-
tween Mr.. Broadway and the electric
road company the town did not take
any action. In the evening at
borough hall W. a. Hall. president
of the agricultural society, was
present and objected to the road run
ming close to the gate, as 1t would
interfere with the passing in and out
of the teams and people during fair
days. O. r. HArte, assistant engineer
