During the past few weeks there has

Mr. Nash ered his loss yester-
day morni - on he went out to
feed the h He immediately not-
ified the ... . of both Norwalk and
Westport. Several parties went out in
search of the thieves and_spent the
entire day scouring the county, but to
no purpose.
The theft was reported to Superin-
tendent Birmingham, of Bridgeport.
and at the same time a des-
cription of a man who had been
in Mr. Nash's employ eight days was
,given. He had disappeared and sus-
picions were aroused against him.
Superintendent Birmingham notified
Derby. Waterbury. New Haven. Dan-
bury and other points. and yesterday
afternoon Superintendent ernn. or
New Haven. telephoned police head-
uarters in Bridgeport that a man
answering the description of the sus-
pect. whose name was George, hilt
whose last name is not known. had
been found in ii house in West Haven,
in bed and arrested. He is a tall
smooth faced man, about twenty-five
years of age, wearing a summer suit,
a light overcoat. a pair of patent
. leather shoes, cut down the front and
s sewed up again: also a brown derby
hat. The horse and wagon were found
in a livery stable.
The owner of the stolen property
was hurried to New Haven to iden-
tify it. and when the arrest was made
known. he stated that tne description
was that of his man George.
The New Haven Palladium gives the
following account of the arrest: "Ser-
geant Tigbe of police headquarters at
noon yesterday received notice from
the Bridgeport police that the barn oi
George Nash, at Westport. had been
broken into Saturday night and a
horse and spindle wagon with red
running gear valued at two had been
stolen. All the stations were notified
that the thief had driven toward New
Haven. Subsequently Captain Brew-
er received a telephone message frorr
Charles Ferguson, proprietor of a
small hotel in Northford. that a man
had put up a horse there and had gont
to bed. He suspected the horse was
stolen. and his description with the
turnout tallied with that of the miss-
ing property.

lice headquarters to claim the proper-
ty. it was finally agreed to leave the
matter in the hands of the Westport
authorities and a deputy sheriff will
go to Northofrd today to demand the
risoner." ‘
p it is only a few days ago that Oscar
Cani'leld's horse was stolen from his
barn at Broad River, and of which no
clue has been obtained.

BURRLIRS IN A GROCERY.
.loselvoskvth Connnuv’u Store in first
Norwalk Fntered and Runsucked.
Another burglary was last night add-
cd to the series of crimes of like na-
ture that has kept the police of The
Norwalks on the uni vlve of late.
Sometime during the night the gro-
cery store. of Robert Josciovsky &
Company. in First avenue. East Nor-
walk. was entered. About 82 in small
change was secured from one of the
cash drawers, and a quantity of cigars
and cigarettes were also taken. The
thieves entered the store through a
window in the rear of a new addition,
and then forced open a door leading to
the main store. Mr. Joselovsky and
family, who live upstairs. did not hear
anyone in the store during the night.
This is the fourth burglary in this
vicinity within a week. From the na-
ture of the operations there is a strong
belief that they have all been commit-
ted by the same parties.

Methodist Episcopal Church.
An autumn festival. entitled God's
Bountiful Harvest, was held at the

gation. The decorations consisted of
autumn foliage and fruits and vege-
tables. very prettlly arranged about
the pulpit platform and within the al-
tar, with the title beautifully wrought
ln corn huska, extending across the
front. The exercises were by the
choir. assisted by Messrs Freeman,
violinist, and Mr. Tilly, cornetist. The
programme consisted of selections by
organ. violin and comet. violin and
carpet solos. anthems. trlos. duets and
solos by members of the choir and an
address by‘ the pastor. whose subject
was "Leaves.” in all parts the pro-
gramme was well rendered.

This was made necessary by a skunk
