Days Ago.

Bangor, Me-, Dec. l0.--The police and
county officials are endeayoring to learn
the whereabouts Of Mrs Perley White,
| Thanksgiving bride, who has been
| missing since last Thursday. A disap-
pointed lover, said to have made threats
against the woman, is also sought.
Mrs. White was Annie Boyce, 20 years
old, the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Will
liam Boyee of l3 Willow street. On
Thanksgiving day she was married to

They went to Levant after the we'd

says he saw her on the street Saturday
afternoon.
Mrs. Boyce says her daughter APP
peared happy and contented, and she
knows of no reason why she should leave
her home and husband. She says for

FOR NoN-ATTENDANcE.
Father Is Held Accountable for Daugh-
ter'S Absence From School.

Because his daughter, Edith, aged l6.
persisted in playing truant from the
Aver street school, Giuseppe zorza OF
10 Webster avenue was brought before
Judge II. w Scott in city court this
forenoon and arraigned on charge or
not compelling his child to attend the
sessions regularly. Yesterday afternoon
Mr.. Zorzi pleaded not guilty before act
ing Judge A. A. Sargent. To-day he
maintained his innocence and Grand Jur-
or A. G. Fay placed two witnesses on
the stand to establish the states allega-
tion. Constable George L. Morris testi-
fed that Edith was great hand for
rolling up majority of absent marks
in the fourth grade registry at the Aver
street school. He also recalled the serv-
ice of written and verbal notices on the
child's parents.
The teacher from No. 4 eorroborated
the constable's story and said that Edith
had been noticeably irregular in attend
ance all fall Mr. Zorzi testified in his
own behalf and through an interpreter
said he had administered corporal pun
ishment to the young one in an effort
to make cr-attend school, He promised
30 bring even more pressure to bear on
the child and the judge continued the
case until Jan. 26. Mr.. Zorzi was ar
rested by Officer Ed. L. Mcleod.

THEIR FUN SPOILED.
Snow on Walks Make Lost Coin" Game
Imperative.

With the arrival Of the seasons first
snow and the quickly accumulated crust
of lee on the sidewalks, n certain class
of alleged funmakers has been compelled
to abandon a peculiar kind of mischief
that has been in vogue in Barre all sum-
mer and fall No doubt considerable
potion of the people who have contract
ed strabsmus of one eye or both in
hunting for lost change along the street
will be willing now to take chance on
the slippery walks if the operations OF
these misguided jokesmiths are to be
suspended during the winter solstice.
The "modus operandi" of simply con-
triyed deception whereby hundreds of
good people have been moved to pause
and hurriedly scan the walk and gutter
as if searching for loose and elusive coin
has often been the means of blocking
the entire side of a street and has fire.
quently caused physical irritation to a
feverish multitude of hurrying mankind.
To describe briefly the methods and eff
feet of the game one must imagine a
small group of old children posted at a
strategic point on one of the main streets
some evening. Abundantly supplied with
nation, they seize the first opportunity
to bound nail or metallic disc beneath
the feet of an unsuspecting passerby
1t rings like real stuff. What does the
pedestrian do? What would anyone do
Give pause. for the first move of course,
and then dig down, expecting to find a
hole in the bottom of his pocket. The
lining still intact. he sweeps the walk
with both eyes and then cranes his head
out over the curbing to see if the coin
has rolled away. There is nothing do
ing, old top! 50 acknowledge yourself
defeated and move along, for an an
noyed stream of travellers is pushing
ahead.
Meanwhile the maitland penny amuse-
ment syndicate stands well back in the
shadow and seeks TO control its mirtb
over the discontinue of the msled pc
destrian. 1t is a huge joke, as everyone
knows, and may be worked again and
again with little danger of detection.

TRESPASSERS WARNED
Not to Walk on the Track of the Rut-
land Railroad.

Rutland, Dec 10. The Rutland rail.
road has started a campaign to prevent
trespass on its roadbed by track walkers
and beginning has been made in Rut-
land, where the track runs through the
city for more than halt mile and is
much used by persons going to and from
work at various manufacturing places.
President John a. Mead of the Howe
Scale works has received letter from
officials of the road asking that work
men be notified of the wishes, of the
road and limiting that the railroad is
willing to take the matter TO the courts
and make test case ii the request is
not complied with. The scale plant,
which employs 500 hands. is situated on
the railroad and a majority of the em-
ployes use the track as sidewalk be-
cause the city has only one bridge over
the tracks, necessitating a long detour
for some of the men to reach their
homes.
