Small Boy
Furnishes Gardiner
Spectators Thrill

People on Water street at $50
Friday evening were treated to a
real thrill as a team went through
the street at mad pace command
ed by small boy Of ten years OF
age, In pursuit was an automobile
in which were Officers Sherman, Gu
sick, and Watson. The procession
went UP though Water street. turn
ed up Winter Hill where in front OF
the residence of r.. p. Hazard the
youthful driver was captured after
a spectacular leap from the automo-
bile into the wagon by Officer Sher-
man. The young fellow proved to
be state charge who was boarding
with a family in Hallowell. He had
played truant from school on Fri
day, came to Gardiner and went to
the lawn party at the Randolph
Grammar school Friday evening. His
first venture was to appropriate a
bicycle, but he was caught in the
act, and the bicycle returned to its
owner. However the team of Mrs.
II. A. Gray was hitched in a door
yard close by and evidently looked
promising to the boy, as he unhitch-
ed the horse and started for a ride.
Officer Sherman was on duty at the
Randolph end OF the bridge and no.
tlcei the young feiloW gong by anu
thinking it strange came to Gard
iner and with the Gardiner police
started to find him. Finally they
drove down the River road and met
the boy near the residence of Doc
tor Libby coming from South Gard
iner Officer Sherman commanded
the boy to stop, at which he took the
whip from the socket and dashed the
horse continuously from that time
until the capture. Luckily there were
no automobiles or teams on the
street and no damage could be as
certained as result of the wild
ride. Later the boys name was
found to be Eastman and he con-
fessed to his escapa1es of the day.
He was detained in the ladies' cell
all night. and returned to state au-
thorities Saturday morning.
