IN GLARE OF LIGHTS.
Robbery of B. & o. Ticket ONCE One
of Boldest in History.

New York, April 27.-One of the
most daring burglaries on the records
of the New York police, was commit
ted on Sunday morning at the main
ticket office OF the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad on Lower Broadway. No an
nouncement of the burglary was made
until today.
Under the glare of four big electric
lights, in a room every foot of which
was visible to passersby on a busy sec
ton of New York's principal thorough
fare, the tall safe in the center of the
room was drilled, its lock torn away
and all the Inonev and tickets stolen.
The burglars got something over $3.50
in money.
According to the police, the burglars
must have worked for at least an hour
in front of the safe. They entered the
ticket office through a side door, jim
mying two bolted doors. AS an extra
precaution, they even replaced the
broken locks on the doors with new
locks identities, in make and pattern.
They succeeded in partially screening
their operations from curious passers-
by by arranging a half dozen office
chairs in front of the safe Detectives
who have been at work on the case for
the past two days. say they have no
clue to the IDENTITY of the burglars.

of one of the play or stories of that
great Norweigian author and sociolo-

The village grand list was not
made up separately. and the figures
given are estimates made by the
board of bailiffs for the years in
which they appear.
Typographical limitations will net
permit placing the village and town
taxes separately in this tabulation.
Following is a statement of the town
tax alone for the years named, be-
ginning with 1860, that any one who
cares to do so may deduct it from
the total and make the separation:
40; 80; 80; 10; $11O; $1.5O; 10;
so; 50; $1.15; $1.34; $21O; SIS;
$1.45; SLAB; 1895; $3.50; $40; $500,
$3.50; $l.6O.
The comparatively low tax rate Of
the town in the sixties is explained by
the fact that special appropriations
were made for certain war expenses.
There WAS raised by subscription ST.
so to pay the bounties of 81 men, and
the amounts later expended, which
brought the total up to $24.5S5, was
raised by taxation, and besides that
a special tax was levied by the State
that amounted to SLY on the grand
list. The total cost to Montpelier by
the war cannot be stated, because in
addition to those two items, the boun-
les and the State tax there were
many private contributions, like tue
gift of the Bailey brothers of horses
for an entire regiment
The two great items of public eX-
pense during the period covered by
ihe above table We're the war eX-
pense and the construction of the
Wells River railroad. Montpelier's
contribution to the latter undertake
ing, with relation to its grand list,
would be equal to raising SS65,676 on
the grand lis! of today. But in addi-
ton to the direct contribution of
100000 to the ROAD, the town paid al
most as much more in interest. The
rate was seven per cent aud there
was no option by which the bonds
could be redeemed or refunded at a
lower rate of interest before ma
turity. So the total expense to the
city of that affair was more than
$4,000. The railroad received 5000
900, which was one-fourth the cost of
building the road, and the remainder
