ELEGANTLY ATT|RED WOMEN
ARE FINED FOR SHOPuFT|MG

Taking Il al FIRST apparently as huge
ioke over which they laughed gaily, two
women who are said to reside in South
Providence, and to move in excellent So
cial circles, paid total fines OF Sl02.4O at
special court session held by Judge Lee
Saturday evening the charges being lar
cenv from each OF the four big depart
ment stores.
They gave their names as Mrs. Elmira
Green and her daughter. Mary Sterling:
but these are we'll understood to have
been fictitious.
They were elegantly attired IN costly
gowns, and in appearance, manner and
conversation gave every indication otbe-
ing women Of breeding and OF social po-
sition in which, as one OF them said, they
'ought 10 have known better"
Their last pilfering was done in the Out
let store, where Constables A. E. War
hurst and ]. F.. Moriarty placed them un-
der arrest. and when they were taken
10 the Central police station their appear
ance created n sensation.
Lieut.. o'Ner talked with the prisoners,
who at first thought that their arrest was
a sort OF a lark; but when they learned
that they were going to he prosecuted.
they became greatly distressed and sob
bed as though their hearts would break.
The daughter said:
1--WE did this more as joke than any
thing else. When we went TO the store
where We first took things we saw some
silk goods on sale and thought how easy
IL would be TO steal them.
"we secreted bundle OF the stuff under
our sacks and then went 20 another store,
where we laughed and looked as we
stole other things.
1--WE then went TO two other places and
found IL an easy matter TO get more. The
entire collection OF goods we stole does
not amount TO $40"
Judge Lee was brought down 10 the
station in the women's carriage and lee
tured them severely and told them that
he cou. send them TO jail II he wanted
TO.
They became hystericaily fearful at
THIS, and the Judge then fined them each
$50 and costs which they paid and de-
parted.
The daughter promptly produced the
fine for herself. and left 10 secure the
amount required Co. liberate her mother
with which she soon returned: and both
departed assuring the officers that they
would never again be 90 foolish"

NOTHING YET
DONE AS To
MARKET HOUSE

The special committee OF the board OF
trade having in charge the matter OF a
new building 10 which the board referred
back the proposition that has stirred up
so much opposition to the demolition Of
the old market house." has not yet met.
Indeed. no meeting has yet been ar
ranged and just what policy is likely TO
be followed is as yet only a matter OF
conjecture.
II is said that the sentiment OF the
members OF the committee. as well as OF
many other members OF the board OF
trade. while favorable TO the removal OF
the present building and the erection IN
its place OF one more in keeping with thu
commercial progress OF the city. is not
OF such nature as TO lead them 10 take
an attitude OF antagonism or defiance to-
ward public opinion IL the latter Is found
TO be strongly against the proposition.
Some or those who are active I'm opposi-
tion to the destination OF the old building
believe that the majority OF citizens ~
with them. and that popular opinion on
the subject will be so plainly shown on
this side that the board OF trade will not
press the matter much further.

Mr.. Meitzen in the last issue Of
the Now Era seemed to be pretty
sore over the tact that the demo-
cratic committee failed to endorse
the white mems primary. What
ever induced him to think that
they would do 80, We are at loss
to know, as the committee always
has been and still is solidly demo-
cratic. II is true that strong eff
forts have been brought to bear to
influence some OF the committee
and win them over to Mr.. Meitzen's
way of thinking. but it has resulted
in utter failure. That there has
been conspiracy afoot to that end
there is little doubt, and the Gaz-
cite may have something further tc
