ing on the Case.

st. Johnsbury, April IS. The resi-
dence OF f. NJ Moore on Pearl street
was last evening robbed Of valuables,
the estimated worth of which is 5000.
A large quantity of valuable silyerware
was not molested, and the sum Of
$50, which was in writing desk was
apparently not discovered
The ROBBERY took place, it is thought.
at about S o'clock, when no one was
at home, Mrs Moore being out call
ing and Mr. Moore being at his store,
he being member Of the firm Of
Moore and Johnson When Mr. Moore
returned home his attention was first
attracted by seeing a small bank, such
as is distributed by savings banks,
living near the door and smashed to
pieces Continuing in his Investigations
he found the following articles missing:
neck lace, some valuable beads two
gold watches, diamond ring, watch
fob and some other articles Going
to the writing desk he found the
money there undisturbed, as well as
the silverware.
It was evident that the burglar or
burglars had gone into the cellar and
secured hammer, with which they
smashed the little bank. Their eff
forts on that did not prove very re-
munerative, however, as the bank con-
tanned only two dollars. The indica
tons are that the house was entered
bv key as no trace of entrance other
wise could be found, and it is known
that the house was locked up when
the occupants left earlier in the even
ing. The matter was referred to the
local authorities, but there is said to
be no clue, although it is suspected
that the work was done by someone
familiar with the premises and with
tile habits of the occupants of the
house. Furthermore, it is not ascribed
to professionals since sthe silyerware
was not taken.

CANCEL YOUR BETS.
Quiet Your Excitement for the Match
Is Off-All OFF.

Developments in the proposed wrest-
ling match between Charles Bixby and
Michael Cappos, who issued the challenge
several days ago, have come TO an abrupt
termination through young Cappos' sud
den determination TO leave the city for
his former home in Greece. A few weeks
ago Cappos returned to Barre, after
passing the winter in Lowell. Mass.
during his absence. he had spent con-
siderable time in the wrestling academy
of Jim Prokos, the Lowell Greek, who
has attained some degree of fame on
the mat. Returning to this city, Cap
nos issued the challenge to Bixby, who
had gained two throws out Of three in
Il match pulled off with the Lowell boy
last year. Bixby posted the S25 to bind
the match and arrangements were un-
der way to settle the question on the
mat on April 2s.
Capposi unexpected decision, however,
made it necessary to cancel the affair.
II is expected that each principal in
the challenge is TO be refunded his post
ed money. Cappos leaves tonight for
Lowell. where he will visit few days
before leaving for Greece.

BARRE FIRM GETS
NEW CONTRACT
P1esbrey- -Coykendall to Furnish Granite
For Part of Carbondale Federal
Building

Beside their contract to furnish
granite for the Barre postofice struc-
ture, the Presbrey- -Coykendall company
has lust secured contract to furnish
granite for part of the federal building
TO be erected at Carbondale, Pa. This
il considerably smaller than the Barre
lob. but it indicates the increasing hold
which Barre granite is getting in the
building trade. It is expected taht about
5000 cubic feet Of granite will be re-
quired for Carbondale
The Presbrey Coykendall company
win begin cutting the stone for the
Barre federal building within short
time. and the work will be done at
the firms large plant on the Gale mea-
dow in North Barre. Granite
stock from the Miles quarry will be
used. For the present no extra force OF
men viii be required it is stated, but
there may be additions later on.
Another important job with tins
company has just turned out IS the
finished Barre granite for the approach
to govrnment building in Havana,
Cuba. The shipment necessitated four
large cars and was sent to New York,
from which port it will be shipped to
Cuba. The awarding of these con
tracts in Barre granite bears out the
contention of great many people that
there Is splendid field for Barre
product in the building trade as well
as in the monumental trade, where
Barre is already recognized as the
leader. The Presbrey-C Coykendall com
panv is to be congratulated on its
success
