GANG OF BURGLARS.
Believed to be In Putnam or Vicinity
 --Grove Street Houses Visited.

More breaks reported to the police and learned of through other sources Tuesday, indicate that Putnam or vii cinity is harboring a bad gang. The Sabin $. Carpenter house on Grove street is one of the latest places visit ed, according to late reports. En- trance was gained through an open window. Not much of value was talk en, although some things of value are missing. 4
 At Putnam Heights another house has been broken into. The discrimina- tion shown by the thieves here is a tribute to the culinary accomplish ments of the housewife, for her dough- nuts and pie were liberally consumed by the marauders while a drawer con. taining as much as ten pounds of var ious varieties of valuable Silverware was inspected and left untouched. A trail of candle drippings and burnt matches showed how the law-breaking visitors had gone about the home
 Captain Murray, who has received reports of a number of breaks in the Grove street section, has found that money only seems to be sought by the burglars, although watch and a small quantity of Silverware were taken in other places visited The burglars could have secured nc<e by a number of valuable articles that certainly came under their attention. Their game seems to be to take only things not liable to aid in their in- crimination by one means or another.

Mr.. Reames returned yesterday
from San Francisco and Berkeley,

made her a present of photograph

been given a thorough trial in his
office. re
Mrs. Reames' eyesight is failing
with adcvanaing age, so that she is
finding it increasingly difficult to
write or read letters-and letters be-
tween her and her son are weekly
necessities to both.
Now, when Mrs. Reames wishes to
write" a letter to her son in Port
land, she will put a blank record on
the photograph and simply talk to
him to her hearts content, even if
it takes several records.
The record or records will be sent
by express or parcel post to Portland
and Mr.. Reames will "read" them on
the autograph in his office. He will
write" to his mother in the same
way.
