KLEPTOMANIAC
Boy Located Here Who Has a
 Mania For Taking Things.

Rene Joseph Brother, a klepto- maniac, who escaped from the state insane asylum at Northampton, Mass, about three weeks ago, was arrested in this city this morning by Officer James Walsh. Brother has been stopping with an uncle on Pearl street, but during his stay in this city has made himself scarce. Fred D. Aldrich a special officer from Northampton came to this city Sat. urday but young Brother was not in evidence, so the officer returned with out his intended prisoner. Walsh lives in the vicinity of Pearl street and has been on the lookout for the boy, his efforts being rewarded this morning.
 Although the prisoner is only 15 years of age, he has long record and has figured in some exciting escapades in Massachusetts. He committed so many thefts that he was finally eX- amined by several specialists and was pronounced a kleptOmaniac and sent to the state asylum. But his stay in that institution was not long. He got out of the building one day and just as he reached the street he saw load of furniture passing. On the rear of it was bicycle. The boy cut the wheel from the furniture van and in a "jiffy" was on his way to Spring field. The first man he asked to buy the wheel consented and said Come over to the house and 1 will get the money" Brother went but he found himself again the police station as the intended buyer was an officer in plain clothes. The officer had sus- pected that the youth had stolen the wheel. Brother was immediately sent back to the asylum.
 He with three other inmates escap- ed the last time by making a rope of bed clothes. They tore the blanket and sheets into strips which they firmly united. It was an easy matte then to descend this and escape.
 About week ago the local depart ment was informed that the boy was in town but he was not definitely To- cated until Saturday. The authorities at Northampton have been notified and in all probability an officer vii, arrive in day or two to take him back
