With this meager evidence police officers centered their attention on the case. On one of the men when arrested was found a knife with a broken blade, while the other wore a mackinaw coat. The knife blade tound in the postoffice door at Fon- tencile was sent for and it fitted per- fectly the knife taken off one of the alleged band'ts This strengthened the chain of evidence against the men, but the police did not feel sure of their case until Theodore Sherman identified the mackinaw.

A traveling man out in the state sent Mrs. Doane $5. Other contributions of money and many packages of clothing are coming in all the time to help these investigated and emi- nently deserving cases where helpless women and dependent children have been pulled down to poverty by misfortunes that are no fault of theirs. These givers surely will have their reward. Their gifts are bringing happiness to many helpless ones--a MERRIER CHRISTMAS both for the givers and for those to whom they give. Here are three more very deserving cases: 10. Family of five. Deserted mother and four children. Girl 11, boy 7, boy 6 and boy 2. Man was drunkard and did not support his family. Mother does day work. Unable to earn enough to pay rent and support family. Need rent and fuel. 11. German family of three. Father tubercular. Mother's health broken down from overwork; boy 12 years old. Mother tries to do day work, but does not make enough to support family. Need fuel and food. 12. Old couple.
