WELLS RIVER
Four Men Arrested on Woodsville
Bridge Saturday Night.

Four hoboes, who had been disturb
ing the peace and holding up womer
and children on this end of the Con
necticut bridge, were arrested after a
severe struggle and lodged in the 10.
cal lookup. Another man crossed the
bridge and was taken in at Woodsville
and there held on similar charges. Trial
was set for Monday afternoon but At
torney Taft of Chelsea was unable TO
attend to the case and it was put over
until Tuesday. On Tuesday no one
showed up and postponement was
again in order. II seems only fair to
any who may happen TO be arrested
that their preliminary trial be held
within twenty-four fours or as soon
as possible. This is not only fair to
the prisoners but to everyone else who
is concerned in the affair.
