AT STATE HOUSE

The State House this week is
agrin over an incident of petty
thievery from the Lunch Room
which came to focus on Thurs
day night, which disproved the
the old theory of the colored man
always being the culprit. For
some time past, various articles of
food have been disappearing from
the Lunch Room ON the fourth

afternoon and time of opening the
next morning, and a great deal of
complaint has resulted thereby,
and an effort was put forth to ap-
prehend the thief.
An Electric Burglar Alarm was
attached to the door of the Lunch
Room which carried the alarm to
the sleeping room of the Custodi-
an of the State House, this being
set after closeing hourin the after
noon. About two o'clock Thurs
day night. the custodian was awak-
ened by the sounding of the alarm
and hurried to the Lunch Room,
where he found the White night
