RUSSIAN FLEET
BOMBARDS FORTS

LONDON, March 29--It was off
cially announced from Constantinople
and Petrograd that the Russian Black
sea fleet bombarded the forts at the
Bosphorus entrance Sunday morning.
Russian aviators bombarded the
suburbs of Constantinople but it is
believed this is not serious attempt
to penetrate the strait because the
forts are impregnable, but to strike
terror to the heart Of Constantinople.
The population of the city can hear,
the big guns. 1t is even possible to
see action from the capitals heights.
A four-masted Turkish vessel has
been sunk.

"Section IL. The construction and
maintenance of any wooden or other

visions of this ordinance is hereby de
clared to be a nuisance and the con-
struction of a building contrary to the
requirements so this ordinance shall
subject the owner and the contractor
to u fine of not less than twenty-five
dollars nor more than two hundred
dollars and cost of prosecution, and of
further fine of Si00 for each week
that the said building shall be suffer-
ed to remain after the first convic-
tion, and ii shall be the duty of the
city council to abate said building ns
nuisance if in their judgment the
said building is dangerous to the
safety of the occupants of the public.
Section A, Any person who shall
construct or attempt to construct any

out first obtaining a building permit
from the building committee or the
city council shall be fined not less

Petty Larceny.

Recently a number of cases of pet
ty larceny have been reported. Evil
dence of some was found this morn
ing by w. A. Benjamin, the kindling
wood man, while up in the vicinity
of Sixth avenue and Seventh street.
The array of stolen articles would
have done credit to junk shop, as
far as variety was concerned. At the
edge of the crossing, over the gutter,
something unusual attracted his at
tention. Upon investigation he found
five "headless hens" wrench, file,
keyhole saw, hammer, water pinchers
and other articles. These had appar-
emily been cached there very recently,
probably last night or the night pre-
vious. Mr.. Benjamin took the things
home with him and the owners can
have the same by calling for them.
1t is to be hoped the finding of these
articles will lead to the arrest of the
parties guilty of stealing.
