Mrs. Joger Metivier, alias Joseph- ine Gray, was Ip police court Monday morning, charged With the theft of a pocketbook containing abeut $200 in bills and a number of checks belonging to Frank Press of 117 Main street, Nov. 24 last. The woman entered a plea of not guilty. Press testified that he had th> pocketbook mnear the counter of his store the day before Thas 3. He thought he laid it down while he went to answer the telephone and .shortly afterwards discovered that it was gome. He adver- l 1115&(1 a reward of fifty dollars for in- formation in regard to fits whereabouts at the time but heard nothing until a ter stating that Mrs. Metivier had taken it. He then adyeriised again that he would have the guilty party arrested un- less the contents were returned te him by Monday last. This was not done and a warrant was issued for the arrest of Mrs. Metivier. He went to the home of Harry Gray, for whem Mrs. Metivier is alleged 1o be houysekeeper and the for- mer told him that he knew nothing about the affair but that he did not biame him for the course he was taking. Mrs. Me- tivier had traded at his store for the last three years and he had always known her as “Mrs. Gray” he said. B3r. Press said he did not care to swear that the woman was in his store on the day in question but he thought she was. Mrs. Annie Beaudry of Jackson street, a sister of Mrs. Metivier, testified of the latter telling her of being in Press’ store and of seeing the pocketbook lying on the counter. She thought at the time it was hers and picked it up, later dis- covering that it was pot, but keeping it Mrs. Beaudry said that her sister told her of spending the money for a silk waist, gold wateh and a new suit of elothes for Harry Gray. She also said that Mrs. Metivier and Gray had lived as man and wife for the last seven years and that he was as guilty as she was, as he knew that ghe had taken the money. As soon- as he knew that she was about to be arrested e left town. Mrs. Beau- dry said she was sorry that things had come to such a pass, as she and her sister came from a good family and she was willing to forgive her sister and take her in if she would keep away from Grav. | In her own behalf, Mrs. Metivier said ‘that her sister was jealous of Gray and had threatened to “make it hot for her” after Gray had told Mrs. Metivier to keep her sister away from the house. The whole story of Mrs. Beaudry she branded as a lle. She had received five dollars a week from Gray as his house- keeper,” she said. The wateh, she de- clared. was given to her by him as a Christmas present and cost $24. Gray had gone south on a visit, tae told the court but would return. sShe cenied that his visit had anything %0 do with the present trouble. In the opinion of the coart the evi- dence in regard to Mrs. Meloler's guilt was not conelusjve and it was net pro’- en bevond a reasonable doubt that she had taken the pocketbook. T eaze was continued uptil June- 13th aud tzs wo- man was allowed to go on her own ree- ognizance after acknowlelsing herseif bound in the sum of $500 to 3ppear on that date.
