 Squabble In Firefiy Company. There was some excitement here Thursday morning preceding the 1eav- ing town of the Firefy company of 5l people. MT. and Mrs. George DeBarr two members of the company who ar rived here too late to go on for We'd nesday nights show at the Bradley theater, had some words with Jack Shoemaker, the mana ger of the com pany, and he discharged them for their failure to appear on time. The talk
 over the matter developed into a hot argument, and the upshot of the affair was that DeBarr complained to the police that Shoemaker had been in sulting and Captain Murray took the manager into custody. Mrs. DeBarI afterwards denied to the prosecuting attorney Arthur $. Macdonald. the allegations that were made in eonnec- l ton with the matter by her husband So Manager Shoemaker was Felea sed from custody
 In the meantime the show company was getting away for Southbridge and Mrs. Shoemaker was so much dis tresSed because her husband was being detained by the officials that she struggled with members of the com pany to get off the train and stay with him, although he advised her tC go along; that everything would come cut all right as it did.
 The company is a high class one and the discharge of the DeBaFrs was or account of their having failed to live up to rules and regulations. They were paid two weeks advance salary anG their return fares to New York, wheI let out from the show here.
 The Firefiy company was one of tht best that ever played here, giving z real big city production, SC the affair of Thursday morning was due to al l unfortunate series of circumstances.

Break Into Wineburg's Store at Great
 Risk of Discovery.

hiSh OI AiSCONSTJs
 N. Wineburg, who has a store in the Tatem building on Front street, re- ported to the police Thursday morning that his place of business had been broken into sometime during the prev ious night. An investigation of his stock showed MT. Wineburg that three suits were missing as well as various other articles, picked at random from the stock.
 Entrance to the building was gained by using q ladder to scale il new wall for a building being constructed in the rear of the bank building and then descending the other side of the wall and brea king out a glass in a window. Exit was made through the side door.
 The men who did the job had their nerve with t1em, When they climb ed the ladder ta Set oyer the wall they had te pass within thsee er four feet of the window where Ar. WinebuRg was sleeping, but they did it and without awakening the sleeper.
 The Werk is believed te be that of the same gang that has been doing similar stunts here fer several months
