Castritius on High street some time during the early hours of Sunday. Officer Donald uson was attracted to the store by finding brok- en plate glass in front of the door while on his early morning round. Mr. Castritius was notified and he came to his place of business but after an examination had been made there was no trace of the thief having cie- turbed anything on the inside or of having even entered the store. It is the belief of Otficer Ferguson and Mr. Castritius that the fellow was frightened away, and further than that that he had not had so very much ex- ce in entering places of this kind. The lock of the door is entirely en- closed, so that after putting the hand throuzh the hole, although the latch coald be reached iL would de impos- sible to uai e door. Mr. Castritius is fairly well satis- fied that his loss is nothug more than brokea éowr.

In response to a summons served up- on her at Westerly some time ago, Mrs. Davis, wife of the owner of a number of barges and the head of a stevedore business filed a cross complaint, not denying that she had left him, but al- leging that his extreme cruelty com- pelled such action. Mr. and Mrs. Da- vis have lived together for thirty vears. The court ordered the husband to pay the expenses of his wife's going out to Reno to defend herself, after it haed Heard her side of the story, feel- ing satisfied that the best place for the couple to fight out their marital difficulties was right here in Westerly, where all the facts are known. The case was dismissed with prejudice and costs attached to the plaintiff.
