 Cases growing out of the> raids for liquor Saturday evening and adjourned from Monday will be heard before Judge lsM H. Geissler in the city court this | Wednesday, morning. These cases are against Frank Benoit and Isadore Beau regard. Nothing of an intoxicating na- ture was found at their places of bus mess.
 | Many North Grosvenordale peonle arc worried over what may be evidence of a tragedy of some nature. The finding of some babys clothing and shoes; in the woods created a sensation in the village and led to an investigation. in the hope that more would be learned about the matter. The search did not develop any thing of special interest, however. The clothing was found at a. place in the 1 woods nsar section of swamp land. This swamp land was searched quite thoroughly in the belief that the body of child might be found, but without l result
 F. As far as could be learned Tuesday,
 no child is missing from North Grosvenr- dale or anywhere in that vicinity, nor has there been any evidence of a crime having been committed. One theory IS fthat the clothing found was that of some child who had been itl with contagious bdisease and that it was taken there and Ithrown away, instead of being destroyed. iState Officer Howard F. Elliott. one of those who has been Investigating the case, said Tuesday morning that he was inclined to believe that no childs body was in the vicinity of where the cloth
 ing was found, yet that he was open to suggestions as to how. it came to be where it was found The clothing in
 cluded a knitted underwaist and other
 undergarments and a pair of small shoes l with hard leather soles. -.
 Tuesdays severe southeast storm cut
 another trading day out of the pre- Christmas shopping period, which will be
 all too brief this year, everything con T sidered. Tuesdays storm was one of the
 worst this season, pouring rain being
 driven by hard gale, but there were
 many expressions of thankfulness that the storm was. not of snow. The streets ot the, city were practically deserted throughout the day.
 . An, incident that came, to light on
 Tuesday would tend to indicate that tht housing conditions are not so acute ir this city as was the case about veal ago. In any event, Captain J. IT. Bul ger, on complaint of citizens. asked fol
 warrant under which action might bt
 taken against a resident of street 1T the. North End> of the city for keepnt
 pigs in the basement of his dwelling
 family rents an apartment in the house
 which also is partly occupied by the mar against whom the complaints have beer
 made Keeping pigs in the same dwell ing occupied by human beings is nc ; longer considered goo dfornn by mos people and incidentally is a violation ot
 the general statutes of the state and o1
 city ordinances as well.
 Rain beat down during Tuesday upor
 the iron kettle in which the Salvation
 Army workers in this city are inviting
 the public to drop coins-paper money
 not being objected to-that Christmas
 may be made happier for needy residents
 of the city. The fami.iar kettle was sta II toned on Front street. near the store of Bugbee and Wulf, and the standard up
 on which it was sluns was placarde ed
 so that the passing public would know why it was there. Tn the past Put.
 nam has been liberal w4th the Salvation
 Army workers. The hope is being ex. pressed that liberality also will mark
 this years giving. for the army workers bring cheer to many who. pre- overlooked
 or unheeded by other organizations. Meat prices being quoted in this cit,
 Tuesday show clearly that the pubif, here and traders from the surrounding territory are getting. quite impressiv, benefits from the recent break sin tn, wholesale prices of pork and it's pro duets, of beef and of grain Pork loin.
