BURGLARS AT BARRIERS
Window Broken and Pennies and Peanut Machine Taken Away in
 the Night.
Special to The Farmer.)

Fairfield, Aug. 24-When Frank Smith opened the bar room al Harry Barker's Central House early Wednes- day morning he found abundant evil night. The glass in a window on the Thorpe avenue side of the building was broken out, but after the burglars had broken in the glass they found d strong wire screen in a heavy wooden frame which they were obliged to break. That this required some effort is indicated by the marks on the win dow sash and frame which are deeply scored. The tools used were primitive, piece of railroad plate and a short bar taken from the rear of the Jen- nings market across the street. The cash register was rifled and Quan- tity of pennies taken, less than a dol lars worth is the estimate of the own CT. A slot peanut machine was re- moved from the place and has not the contrivance, evidence that there was some cash, condition which evil dently came to the minds of the thieves for they did not disturb an- other peanut machine which had been filled the day before. Aside from these Mr. Barker is unable to find any other loss. No liquor, cigars or cigarettes are missing. The affair is mysterious in that burglars can usually find something they want in a saloon be- sides the small amount of cash they got

QUAIL PlEkITFUl THIS YEAR

Native quail have done well this season and there is evidence of their being more plentiful than last year. Eugene Godfrey reports seeing a big flock sitting on a fence by the road side one day this week. Others have reported hearing them whistle in val ious parts of the town all of which is good news to the sportsmen in this vicinity.
 , The old burying ground near the Ho- tel Fairfield has been cleaned up and the brush and weeds cut away. No interments have been made there for years and the place has given evidence of neglect and decay. The town an- nually sends men to cut down the brush which has overrun the graves and threatens destruction to the stone markers.

and selfish and who represent no one but themselves.
 .sWhen Exile said the 'Heresy "f delegation has not even begun 10 pro United States he said what was not true. The solemn fact is that Tn Its whole history the government Of the United States is entirely on the prln, ciple of delegated power. "l wonder, Fox continued, 'Who Exile IS ana whom he represented He found his level. For twenty years l nave ta- ken part in political controversies Tn England. and I have sat in the vls- itors' gallery in the House of Com mons hundreds of times, and can honestly say that in it's methods. par Tory party is the rottenest polltlcal organization in the world, not bar, ring Tammany
 .s1he cheering phase of the fight is the change that has come over the people I nave watched them many years, and I know that the English workingman is not the minimizing clod who tried my patience nearly quarter of a century ago. lie IS the most up-to-date workingman on earth, and in spite of the wiles and n1srep- resentations of the 'gentlemanly par ty' he has a very concrete idea Of the sort of government he wants and the best way of going to work to get It.
 Portuguese monarchist refugees are continuing their plotting in London for King Manuel's restoration to the throne Just how deeply the ex- King himself IS concerned in the con- spiracies is uncertain but there is no doubt that he is at least kept inform ed of what is going on. The Mar ouis de Several. who was a Portu- guese minister in England up to the time of Manuel's deposition, is pro- bably the real life of the conspiracies in which several English men and women of very high birth and consii- erable wealth are also said to be in- terested.
 It is an open secret that the Eng fish government is seriously annoyed by the refugees activity and has been several times on the point of intimat- ing to the foreign plotters that, un- less they let Portuguese politics alone, the government would prefer a ter imitation of their residence on British soil. The situation is, however, soma- what embarrassing, Manuel himself being a very close friend of the Eng fish royal family and the Marquis de Soverel as one of the late King Ed wards closest personal Cronies a man whom it is more than unplea sant to offend.
 The pIotters in England are in close touch with those in Spain, along the Portuguese frontier, and it is un- derstoOd that the plan is for an inva- sion of northern Portugal at the psy- chological moment, with Manuel at the invaders head.

 Shot in Arm.
 An Italian named Giuseppe Fusca, employed as a farmland on the H. R. place. had his arm hor- ribly mangled by gunshot wound, Monday afternoon. He alleged that another Italian whom he named, had invited him to go hunting for wood chucks, and during an altercation had shot him. Examination showed that three small bullets from the gun had struck him on the right forearm, two of them ripping up the flesh, and the third lodging in the wrist Guisseppi MaIvasa is the name of the man who is supposed to have fired the shots. He is said to be brother-in-law of the wounded man.
