Many Barre people are acquainted
with the murderer, who at one time
resided in this city The Quincy Ledger
SAYS that Restelli was in Barre five
years ago, working as spy for the
anti-saloon people among the italian
population. The Ledger goes on to say
that Restelli was discovered as spy
and after ne bad shot o man was rail-
roadcd out Of town. This statement
about his shooting 4 man here seems to
be incorrect, but Il is said that Restelli
was warned to leave Barre by irate
Italian people, who claimed Ne came here

There il some belief that ReHtelli will
come to Barre in his effort to elude the

the Quincy police to be on the watch

1t is better not to hear than to
use what is heard baselv.
Conscience is active when least
expected, and its activity is found
in the most unlikely hearts.
1t never occurred to Herod that
a new era had dawned, and that an
age that had produced a John
could produce a greater than John.
TO arrest a man for crime is

That is a Golden Text worth re-

Herod had been self-controlled and
not maddened with drink he would
never have made the rash promise.
All the wisdom of this world has
