An Apparent Shortage.

Since the death of Alfred Roscoe,
ct New Haven, about six weeks ago,
says the Boston Globe, there have
been developments which have
caused much surprise among the
people of that place and surround
ing towns. If the reports of some
of the officers of the town of New
Haven prove true, Mr.. Roscoe, who
held the confidence of the residents
ard had served in early every town
office, was short in his accounts
running we'll up into thousands Of
dollars. Mr.. Roscoe was town clerk,
town treasurer, treasurer OF the
Congregational church, and was
also treasurer OF the Beeman Aca-
deny fund for many years. The
first suspicion there was of any,
thing wrong in the way he handled
the funds arose a few days after
his death when the books were
looked over 1t was found that
money had been borrowed from GER
tain banks to pay town expenses. So
strong was the faith of the people
that although they admitted he had
exceeded his authority in borrow
ing money as he had done. some
expressed the belief that upon an
