SNEAK THIEVES.

It is exported that Sneak Thieves are at work in this city.
 Tho only way to guard against tha activities of such criminals, of course. is to keep the doors and windows of tho house locked when there is no ono at home. Or if there is someone in the house to look after things, it should be seen to that the back of the house is locked while the occupant is in the front part, and vice versa. This seems entirely plain.
 Special care should be taken at this time when there are more people than usual out of work. Idle hands usual ly find some mischief to do and when the idle hands are possessed by a hungry man that tendency is empha- sized.
 Sneak thieves usually work in more populated portions of the city. They enter places where the houses arc close together. Often they have some back or front door. They look about. If someone sees them they tell a story of looking for some individual who, they pretend to think. lives in that house. There are many devices which the professional sneak thief uses. There are many which the anna teur thief. clever in a way, is able to think up almost on the spur of the moment
 Most of us at one time or another have lived in rural districts where doors and windows were always open or unlocked, and where it seemed ri- diculous to fasten a door every time we went out for a moment-to the barn. it used to be-now it is more likely to be to the garage. We may have brought this habit with us to the city. Ii is not an easy one to over come.
 New Britain is a city which attracts all sorts of men. Yet the country" is not far from the Center. Sincerely is 1t to be wished that these free, trusting ways of the country might be maintained here. But they may not be with safety.
 New Britain's country must be governed by the ways of a city, and

stai | are the men who receive the honors the university and the students have to give.
 The best of college men are full Of life. eager for activity and fun. But the best of college men do not have to go to outside places of "en- tertainment'' to find a vent for their desire for activity. for fun. There are plenty of opportunities in the college life itself-in study. in ath- letics. in musical organizations. in debating matters. in literary work and in countless other fields.
 The college man who respects him. self and who is ambitious to stand with and for the college-the college man who is respected and honored by his classmates-the college man who is worth while, does not lower him self nor bring disrepute to his uni- vorsity by resorting to word or action of which he should be ashamed. And such are the men who make the great institutions of learning what they are today. They are not dead ones". they are alive-but they are alive to a life that Is clean and straight.

PATRICK McCABE.
Dt an enemy in the world"

Not an enemy in the world"
 It is quite probable that these words, spoken to Patrick McCabe in life. would have pleased his honest. straightforward heart more than any which might bs said of him. Possi- bly,. they never came to his hearing ears. Today they may be written as a fitting epitaph for a man of accom- pIishmont achieved through his own efforts. unaided by circumstance other than that resulting from his own dis position, lis own habitual kindliness. his own creed of living straight and true.
 In the history Of the life of this man who will no more inspire energy and ambition by his living example. there may be seen a splendid lesson for those who come 70 this country from across the water: begin life here with little to show them the bright light of success; burdened by the handicap of unfamiliarity with our habits and customs. but who a"e able. by their own perseverance and deter imitation to take a place in the com munitv which may we'll be envied. Patrick McCabe did all this. nor does there remain any memory of him in his political or business activities other than one of which those who loved him may be proud.
 Unique were the distinctions given him. He was trusted and honored by men of all political beliefs and by those who looked to him for advice and help. Unostentatious in his de- meanor. he was salways the same conrtcoms. kindly. friend of those
