ALL nomination papers for town office 
must be filed by Monday, Feb. 24, at 
7 p. m. 
THE sentiment is becoming stronger 
every day that the present board of se- 
lectmen are capable of filling the office 
again, and their good record:for the past 
two years justifies their election for an- 
other year. 
THE annual Town Meeting in Man- 
chester is now only two weeks off, and 
from appearances it would seem that 
there will not be much in the line of a 
contest for any of the town offices, with 
the exception, perhaps, of Water Com- 
missioner, Tree Warden, and Town 
Treasurer. The entrance of Albert 
Cunningham asa candidate for the lat- 
ter adds interest to this office. Mr. 
Cunningham polled a large vote last 
year. 
THE fact that no candidates have yet 
entered the field for the office of select- 
men, except Geo. L. Allen, is sufficient 
assurance that the citizens are satisfied 
with the present board. M. E. Gor- 
man'has taken out papers for assessor, 
though he is undecided for which of the 
three termshe will run. He is the only 
new candidate outside the present board. 
NUMBER -7 
THE MITCHELL BURGLAR NOW LOCKED 
IN MANCHESTER POLICE STATION 
The young man who is thought to 
have broken into the W. J Mitchell 
cottage at Manchester Cove is now safe- 
ly locked in a cell at the Manchester 
police station. He was brought there 
this morning a little before ten o'clock 
by Keeper Paige of the almshouse. 
[t seems that after leaving the Mitchell 
house Thursday night he went to the 
beach and slept in a lobster shanty owned 
by Mr. Sargent. He wasthere Thurs- 
day and Friday nights, and about 8 this 
morning he was discovered by Mr. Sar- 
gent on the beach, curled up against a 
big tree stumpthat had drifted ashore, 
and a boat, covered by a coat and with a 
double barrel gun he had taken from the 
shanty. He also wore Mr. Sargent’s 
cap. 
Mr. Paige of the almshouse drove to 
the beach and brought the fellow to the 
police station. 
AT the annual session of the Massa- 
chusetts Department, G. A. R.,in Bos- 
ton this week resolutions were adopted 
favoring a change in the date of the an- 
nual Memorial Day, with the idea of 
having it fall annually on the Sabbath 
day, about the same time of the year as at 
present, and many good arguments in 
_favor of the change were advanced. 
It was pointed out that at present the real 
purposes of the day were lost sight of 
and in a measure defeated, owing to the 
fact that the holiday comes on a week 
day, or even if falling on a Sunday is ob- 
served the following day. ‘Lhe origin- 
ators of the annual memorial day intend- 
ed that it should be observed as a day 
sacred to the Grand Army of the repub- 
lic, but as years have come and gone, it 
has developed into a holiday with all the 
essentials of sucha period attached. It 
seems that out of the entire course of a 
year, one day at least could be set aside 
for the exclusive reverence of the heroic 
dead, and paying tribute to the living he- 
roes of the wars of our country. It 
seems that the only way in which such a 
strictly devotional observance of the day 
can be accomplished is to have it set for 
say the last Sunday in May, and then the 
base ball, cricket, golf, aquatic sports 
and other diversions would not. interfere 
with the observance of the day, as in- 
terpreted by its name and as it was in- 
tended by those who had labored to have 
the day set aside for patriotic consider- 
It is very evident that the only reason 
the young fellow had not made his es-— 
cape is because he had-sprained his left 
foot so that it had swelled terribly. _ Dr. 
Blaisdell was called in and cared for him. 
When found he was benumbed with 
the cold. 
The young man is about 23 years old. 
He gives his name as Joe MacDonald, 
and his home as Baltimore. 
Yesterday’s developments in the burg- 
lary at the Mitchell house, Manchester 
Cove, would indicate that there were 
two instead of one burglar, as thought 
at first. [his was emphasized by the 
fact thattwo old suits of clothes were 
found in the house, which had been left. 
in exchange for two good suits belong- 
ing to Mr. Mitchell, probably. Other 
tracks have been found about the house 
which would seem to indicate that there 
were two instead of one in the break. 
ation and tribute of loving honor and 
memory to the dead and living heroes.

Another Candidate for Water Coms 
missioner? 
Friends of James Hoare are trying to 
prevail upon him to run this year for 
Water Commissioner, and yesterday a 
committee waited upon him, but he 
would not give a final answer. It is not 
unlikely that papers will be taken out for 
him the coming week.
