at least @ well founded suspicion that two fires which have occurred in the East Putnam section of the town were of incendiary origin was confirmed on Saturday morning in the city court when Miles Decatur, ager 14 l-2 years pleaded guilty to having caused them. The fires were brush or wood fires, one Of them, set on March 20 on land Of Arthur Cutler, being extinguished al- most as soon as it was started, the other set more than a year ago. This proved disastrous woodland fire and caused demage to the amount of sev- era1 hundred dollars to property of Torrey Brothers, big quantity of cordwood being destroyed. Judge M. H. Geissler sentenced the boy to the reform school, but suspended execu- tion of the sentence and placed him in the care of the probation officer for a period of six months.
 The fixing of the responsibility for the two fires on the boy was the re- suit of Harry Flint of Gloucester R. l.. coming upon him on Saturday, March 20, just as he was standing be- side a patch of fire that had been started. MT. Flint threatened to take the boy back to Putnam, but did not do so and his arrest did not follow until Tuesday of last week. The case was adjourned from that time until Saturday, after the boy, under a se- were line of questioning steadfastly maintained that he was not guilty. During the week the case was worked up and a number of witnesses sum- moned into court to appear Saturday. It was only then the boy pleaded guilty.
