Four Breaks in Business Section Sunday Night.-Stop For
 Pie
Buick Garage, Arnold's. Laundry and
 Raherty's Entered

Burglars entered four business places in the down town section of the city at a late hour Sunday night. Breaks were made at the Putnam Steam Laundry. Pomfret ,eet. and the office of w. F. Rafferts. plumber, next door; also at Arnold's fish mar ket and sea grill and the Putnam Buick Company's garage. The bur glars made their escape in a new Ia- salle automobile owned by the Put nam Buick Company. At none of the other places was anything of value stolen.
 In all four places entrance was gained through rear windows or doors. The breaks at the laundry and Raf- ferty's were return visits, these two places having been broken into week previously. This is the fourth time Arnold's has been entered, the last time but two or three weeks ago. The garage has also been broken into before but not for some time.
 Did Much Damage
 While the burglars had no success at any of the places broken into with the exception of the Buick garage they did considerable damage at the laun- dry and Raiferty's were they used a sledge hammer to break off the dials and hinges of the safes. They gained entrance at the rear of the building with the use of tire iron such as is used in prying tires of of automobiles. The break at Arnold's was discovered between twelve and one o'clock Mon day morning by a policeman making his rounds. The other breaks were discovered by employees who first re- ported for work Monday morning.
 At the sea grill the burglars ap- parently stopped for rest and refresh ment. They consumed pie and other foods and may have taken few pack ages of cigarettes. They left behind pair of mismated gloves. Each glove was of different make and of a small size. These may have been worn to prevent finger prints or may have been left to throw the police of the trail.
 Officers making an investigation are undecided as to whether the breaks were all committed by the same per sons. There is a possibility that the three unsuccessful attempts to get money may be unconnected with the theft of the automobile.
 The state police were notified of the burglaries and are assisting in the investigation.

Once Famous Port

Though Cowes is now almost synony-
nous with pleasure yachting, the little
town was famous for its dockyards
long before the annual regatta was
thought of, says LOCKER On" In the
London Daily Chronicle. Many a tall
ship for war or merchant service came
off the slips at Cowes in the old days,
including Nelson's famous Vanguard.
and during the World war its ship
yards were adapted again to contrib
ute worthily to British naval strength.
both in regard to new building and re-
pairs. How the town came by its
name has some interest. Really the
names is plural, and derives from the
two "cowes" or circular forts. which
Henry VIII erected to guard the en-
trance to Portsmouth harbor. One
fort is now the headquarters of the
Royal Yacht squadron.
