TWO BOYS Under
ARREST FOR THE
RECENT THEFTS
ABOUT GARDINER

Two Gardiner lads about IA years
of age whose names are withheld be-
cause of their youth and because of
their parents feelings, were arraigned
Thursday in the Gardiner municipal
court. charged with breaking and en-
terins and larceny They pleaded not
guilty through their attorney, Hon.
Geo. w. Heselton, and We're held in $500
bonds for the appearance at the Septem-
Der term of the superior court. Bonds
were furnished.
The lads admitted to the police that
they were concerned in at least six of
the recent breaks. these being at the
Nannah Co., Decker g. Days, Tarr's
boat house, Otis Rockers, Geo. w. Cross
and the Nivison stable. Their apprehen-
Sion comes as a distinct shock as the
lads have always borne a good reputa-
ti6h in the past.
Much criticism has been passed out
referring to the police department re-
garding the breaks Of recent date, as
is always the case at such times City
Marshal F. E. Potter has rot been loaf
ing on the job and has put in work on
the case both day and night and this
WON resulted IN the arrest ~ the lads.
After the boys had been taken to the
station they confessed to several of the
breaks and told where a part of the
plumber might be found Several sacks
containing large and varied assort-
ment. principally from the hardware
stores, We're found hidden in a box
sunk in the ground under the Univer-
salist vestry and another lot in the or
gan loft. Other lots were located at
Gray's wharf and under the sidewalk
OF Lincoln avenue, near Quimby field
In the lot of plumber buried under the
church vestry was found the probable
cause of the lads downfall in the shape
OF a sizeable package of dime novels"
OF the Diamond Dick variety. The lads
feel their position keenly and needless
to say heartily regret their actions.

Ambulance, in letter to Major c. ].
Currie, commanding No. II Field Am
bulance, encloses a letter from General
Smith-Dorrien to General Anderson, prais-
ing the gallantry of the Canadian forces.
Referring to the battle Of April ~ and
the following days, he says in part:
1.-THE more details 1 learn, the greater
to me does the resourcefulness and
bravery of Brigadiers. Battalion COM
manders and individuals become appar-
ent. / am convinced that, with less gall
lantry and less determined troops, the
disaster which occurred outside the line
they were holding might have been con-
verted into serious defeat for our
troops. 1 regret exceedingly the loss of
so many brave officers and men, but they
did not lay down their lives in vain I
should like you to communicate to the
whole Canadian division my thanks and
admiration, as army commander, for the
service they rendered to the second army
during the critical period following the
successful German attack on our allies
on the night Of April 22.''
