Westerly Child Terribly ScaIded
Fort Mansfield Private in Hands of Westerly Thugs Main Street Improvements -Proverbial Gratitude De- monstrated-~ Artillery Mail Orderly Disappears with Several Hundred Dollars.

l Mail Orderly William Merrick of the E,ighty-eight company, Coast Artil- I lerS corps, stationed at Fort Mansfield, has disappeared, and it has been dis covered that he has stolen several hun 1 dred dollars entrusted to his care to | carry from the fort to the pOStoffice at i Watch Hill. Some of the money was enclosed in addressed envelopes and more of 1t was given the mail orderly to get money orders at the postoffice. Msrrick has not been seen at the fort since he left on the early Tuesday af- ,ternoon trip for the Watch Hill post office The particular theft here re- ferred to was all in that particular mailing trip, and it is assumed that Merricks thieving methods were not commenced at that time and that pre- vious losses will now be explained and determined upon inquiry.
 George Randall, civilian plumber at
 the military post, was the heaviest loser in Tuesdays transactions He check for S75 in his bank book and prepared the same for mailing for de- posit in a bank in Portland, Me, which is his legal residence. He was careful to iron the bills smooth so as to make a neat and compact package. When Merrick reached the postoff1ce the end of the large Randall envelope had been opened and the orderly borrowed muci lage to seal the opened end and 1t was mailed to destination. Merrick had ab- stracted the cash and received cash for the endorsed check at the Washington Trust company bank. He took $90 for
 d money order from another, S51 from the surgeon and $2o from Private Me Gurk. It is known that the amount taken on this last trip by Merrick was at least $360. In addition there were
 bills of small denominations in several letters entrusted to AIerrick for regis
 try, but the money was distracted be-
 fore the letters were registered. He
 also stole a custom made suit of civil
 ian clothes from the locker of one of
 his comrades.
 It is suspected that Merrick has gone
 to New York and the police depart
 ment has been notified to be on the
 lookout for him, information being
 given as to his probable haunts and
 which will probably lead to his arrest.
 Merrick is only 20 years of age, en-
 listed from Albany, and is described as
 being five feet eight inches in height,
 weight about 150 pounds, dark hair,
 with a peculiar Mongolian cast in his
 eyes. He was quite intelligent and was
 selected as mail orderly upon the sup
 position that he was strictly honest
 and trustworthy.

The proverbial ingratitude of some rural residents was demorStra ated in Mechanic street Thursday morning. A farmers horse walked homeward while it's owner was making a business l and then increased his gait to a lively run. A mile or more distant the horse was stopped by a boy and driven back in the direction whence the animal came in hope Of delivering the outfit to the owner and with the least incon- venience to that worthy individual. The boy had driven back about three quarters of a mile when fellow, who proved to be the owner grabbed the horse by the bridle, gave the boy a severe tongue flashing and accused him of being a horse thief.
 / The boy tried to explain the situa- tion, but without avail, the team own CT threatening to give the boy thrashing. Whip in hand, the threat was about to be executed when a phy- ssician and his driver, familiar with the facts, interfered and saved the boy from being horsewhipped, practically by physical force rather than by argu- ment or explanation.

DECREASE IN LICENSES

The number of licenses issued by
the government for the sale of lntoxi-
eating liquors by the drink in 1905
was 1896, in 1907 there were 81, 131
and in 1908 there were 1914. This
decrease was not confined to any par
ticular part of the country, but is
apparently in every group of states,
except in certain of the Rocky Noun
tain states. The decrease has been
most marked in the South Atlantic
states. Chelsea and fitchburg, Mass,
change from ''no license'' to license
and caused an increase of 100 per
cent in 190T-S in the number of licens
ed places selling liquor by the drink
Despite the large increase in the
number of licensed places, the re-
ceipts from liquor licenses and taxes
by l51 cities increase from $50, S1O,-
S3S in 1905 to $50 ,234 1928 in 1907 and
to $41 $50, 1SS in 1908. This is eX-
