Herbert A. Wiley was the first in the city to
experiment with the Wonderberry, of which
mention was recently made in these columns.
He sent to John Lewis Childs for plant and
also for seeds The plant he has kept in pot,
and the seeds were planted in his garden. The
other day we had an opportunity of inspecting
and sampling the plant and berries. The
berries are about the size of the blue berry
but almost black in color. They contain seeds
and liquid, rather than pulp, of no particular
flavor. We were told that when cooked the
result was something like purple ink They
certainly will never supplant the BURBERRY or
huckleberry and we fail to see anything to
commend them.

ALLEGED POCKET PEDDLERs ARRESTED.
While many comments have been made since
the adjournment of the Supreme Judicial court
in relation to the disposition of the criminal
docket and the light penalties which were i'm
posed even in the cases of old offenders with
many cases against them, yet this discouraging
feature does not seem to change the policy of
the sheriff and his deputies, who are constantly
getting new evidence of violations of our laws.
1t is remembered that three offenders were
brought before the police court for violating
the prohbtory laws at the Monroe fair. The
officers were then very busy in attendance in
the Supreme court, but Deputy Littlefeld did
excellent work on the fair grounds, with the
assistance of other deputies from time to time
{ as they could be spared. This work was con-
tinued at the Unity fair this week under the
special care of Deputy sheriff Gray of Troy,
assisted by Deputy Bessey and Constable
Thompson of Unity, and others, and resulted
/ in roundup of four alleged liquor peddlers,
who were apprehended and taken to Jail Tues
day night to await hearing before Judge
Rogers Thursday morning, the officers mean
while returning to Unity during the last day
! of the fair, hoping to get others who are sus-
pected The men apprehended are Eugene H.
Inman, Herbert Philbrick and Percy Campbell,
who claimed Bangor as their residence, and
Fred E. Bickford of Rockland. 1t is claimed
that they were all concerned in peddling whis-
key near the fair grounds
