There appears to be hen thieves 
in Manchester. Last Sunday morn- 
ing when John G. Haskell of Bridge 
street, went to his hen coop, he 
found half a dozen hen’s heads 
around the place and upon further 
investigation he found that more 
than a dozen of his birds had been 
stolen. Here’s some work for the 
police. 
Saturday morning a number of 
small boys were playing in the sand 
hill on Lincoln street, digging caves 
in the side, when the banking caved 
in on Gordon Baker, burying him 
to his waist. Fortunately there 
were men near who witnessed this, 
and rushed to the assistance of the 
boys and soon cleared the sand 
away.

Miss Carrie Preston had occasion 
to call at the home of her friend, 
Miss May Rogers on North street, 
last. Friday evening. She was in- 
vited into the parlor, and as_ she 
stepped in, the light was flashed on, 
and she was greeted by the chorus 
of voices. It was Miss Preston’s 
19th birthday, and some fourteen of 
her young friends had gathered to 
help her celebrate the occasion. 
The evening was most pleasantly 
spent in playing games and singing. 
A ‘Hunting Game”’ had as the first 
participant Miss Preston, whose 
quest finally resulted in her finding 
a beautiful topaz ring, the gift of 
the party. At ten o’clock the hos- 
tess escorted her guests to the en- 
closed piazza, where a collation was 
served, the most pleasing feature 
being a large birthday cake. The 
piazza was very prettily decorated 
with evergreen and yellow crepe 
paper.
