Sheriff John R. Wilcox and Chief Brown are making an investigation of the career of Charles Blumenberg for offenses committed outside the jurisdiction of the Westerly police and also getting pointers that show that Blumenberg committed the recent bttrglaries in Westerly. Sheriff Will COX and Chief Brown called at the home of Blumenberg in Providence and found his wife and children in destitute circumstances. Mrs Blu menberg said that since moving from GrOton about year ago, her husband was away from home most of the time and gave her to understand that he was seeking work, but could find only temporary employment. Sometimes he brought a few articles to the house which he said he found, and gave her money occasionally in small amounts. She was grteved but not surprised to learn of his arrest and that he Is in the New London jail.
 Railroad Detective Hanaford of Providence has also been making an investigation and he charges that Biumenberg is responsible for the break at Sharon Heights on the night of August 14. when Mrs. Emma Be- hams sack and coat valued at $1425 were stolen, Also that he entered the Sharon station and the West Mans Held station, where he stole $37 in cash. HanRfoEd also charges that Blu msnberg is responsible for the footing of several eahooses of the railroad company and the larceny of property of employees, and for the break at the East Greenwich boat house. from where the cigars found with Blumen- berg at ths time of his arrest were taken.
 The detective visited the home of Biumenberg and recovered the stolen sack and dress He also recovered two dress suit cases filled with goods that have not yet been identified, which Blumsnberg had left at the house of a friend in Valley Falls.
 Sheriff Wilcox and Chief Brown were at the Blumenberg home with the railroad detective, and while there the stolen sack and dress arrived by express addressed to Mrs. Blumenberg and she opened the package in the presence of the officers. This suit was left by Blumenberg with his aunt in Pawcatuck and she forwarded it tc Mrs. Blunnsnberg. but had no idea il vas stolen property, The dress suit cases contained caring apparel and were undoubtedly stolen from parties who were bent on travelling and pre- sumabtY taken from cars or railway stations.

Mir. Editor: The receipt of the Waller letter to Jodoin has been much different in Windham county than what 1t was expected to be. The fol- lowing of MT. Jodoin, as a rule, are the ultra -Bryanists and those demo- crats have never forgiven Thomas M. Waller for his assertion of the party in 1896, and it has also been hinted that his outward support of MT. Bry- an in 1908 was forced and not truly loyal. However that may be- demo- crats in several towns who had no in tention whatever of supporting Bryan Mahan for congress have suddenly commenced to grpmble that Raymond Jodoin or any other man who goes in to a fight at this day backed wholly by traitors in 1896, will have hard sled

ding. Some radical Bryan men, espe- cially in towns like Canterbury-who ly farming-are a little bit out with Mahan for his non-support of Bryan at Baltimore, but that is immediately forgiven when Tom Waller takes a hand, as the loyalty to the New Lon don mayor to the continual candidate was never questioned.

SEES HOPE FOR
DR.. NJ NAUCHTON
Colonel SaffoId Thinks Mrs.
Flanders Trial Will Clear
Condemned Physician.

Colonel Frank Safold, Of SWANS
boro, one of DR.. McNaughton's attor-
neys, talked most Interestingly today OF
the famous poisoning case, and the di-
rection to be given it by the prison
board, after having heard the plea for
executive clemency
Colonel Saffold said
"AIl we ask Is justice for Or. Nc
Naughton, and we are gratified beyond
measure that the prison board is to
recommend that the doctor be respited
until his alleged accomplIce can be
tried. and that the governor is to lend
a favorable ear to the recommends
ton.
Or. McNaughton can not be guilty
of poisoning Fred Flanders, unless the
woman Jointly indicted with him also Is
guilty II the state can not convict her,
st must have erred in convicting the
doctor Her trial will throw a bright
and Illuminating light on the Nc
Naughton case. 1t may-and l believe
will-clear the doctor absolutely of all
suspicion of crime

alive at least until after the trial of
Mrs. Flanders. in order that he may tes-
tify, IL necessary, in the case against

lost the DOCTORS case in many courts,
but we invariably have lost on technl-
cal points of law, and not on the facts.
1t is for just such cases that the rem
edy of executive clemency is provided.
THE prison board and the governor
will be rendering the state, which
stands for exact and impartial justice.
a high and patriotic service in insisting
that McNaughton be not executed, in
any event, until his alleged accomplice
in crime, who never has been called to
account, and who is now at large on a
paltry $4,000 bond, has been convicted
or acquitted"
1t is understood, in view of the di-
rection to be given the McNaughton
case by the prison board and the gov
ernor, that a strenuous effort will be
made to call Mrs. Minnie Flanders 10
trial at once-possibly within the next
two weeks
If there is no violent opposition to
that and her trial may be brought
about without further delay, the famous
McNaughton case may be, at least,
nearing it's end
In any event, the doctor will not hang
so long as the case against the woman
is pending in the courts

NOW'S A TLANTA'S TIME
TO REALIZE HER HOPE,
THE BLUE PRINT CIT Y"

Fundamentals are accepted rules that
have become reconciled by mutual
agreement. No question is understood
thoroughly until the for and against
are heard.
1t is difficult TO define truth. because
truth to one man may not be truth to
another, and yet both may be right 1t
is the same with wrong. However,
there are two universally recognized
spirits in this world that are diametri-
cally opposed to each other. They are
called Good and Evil. Whatever their
source may be we shall not attempt to
explain. 1t is sufficient for us to know
that they are here.
Power of Good and Evil.
on the side of Good we find right
eousness, justice, tolerance, knowledge,
love and happiness. On the side of
EVIL there are ignorance, superstition,
intemperance, misery and selfshness.
The Individual who rubs against the
destructive forces and overcomes them
with Good grows stronger with every
stroke. The one who forsakes the voice
Of the conscience grows weaker.
Now, some people argue that certain
evils have prevailed since the days of
Moses, and will ever prevail Not so
Nothing is done as it was in the days
Of Moses. The world has progressed
Science and religion have come to the
rescue, and by the force, Of an enlght-
ened public opinion we restrain our
brother from harming himself-in a
way that, like a pebble cast IL a pool
would leave an ever widening circle of
misery, harming others also
We congratulate the gentlemen of the
Chamber of Commerce that they nave
taken the affairs Of our beloved city in
hand-as the whole city is stirred by
recent events Let's eradicate the ola
landmarks and have a new, clean, beau
tiful city rising again Ike a Phoenix
blueprint city, with lines drawn and
definite plans made for all time, that
even the women will approve of.
And can you guess what the blue
print man will do the very first thing
He will take in the whole of Fulton
county, and EXTEND ALABAMA
STREET TO THE RIVER. Have you
ever been on Sunset avenue? 1t is az
far from the center of town as the
Georgian Terrace, but you can go
quicker to Roswell or Marietta. Try it,
