Flying Trip. 
Daniel Brown, better known as 
*«Steb,”’ of Manchester, well known 
in police circles the county over, 
made a flying visit to Manchester last 
Saturday, and was entertained at the 
police station over Sunday. 
““Steb”’ has a failing. He drinks. 
For the past month he has been en- 
joying the hospitality of the Salem 
jail, and Saturday morning was lib- 
erated. It was too much for him. 
Overcome with joy he drank of the 
‘pure air’’ of freedom, came to Man- 
chester, where Officer Jones stumbled 
upon him Saturday night as the happy 
‘«* Steb” was trying to hold up a fence 
on Beach street. 
In court, Monday morning, Judge 
Safford extended an invitation to 
Brown to spend the balance of the 
season in Salem jail, giving him 30 
days more. 
Great Bargains in Damaged Goods.

goods man, is arranging for one of the 
greatest smoke and water sales in dry 
goods that Gloucester has ever seen, 
and it will pay Manchester and Mag- 
nolia buyers to call and look over the 
bargains. In the big fire a week ago 
Mr. Pattillo’s stock was damaged, and 
beginning next Monday these goods 
will practically be given away. The 
stock is said to be in good condition, 
not having been damaged by fire, and 
great bargains may be anticipated.
