Moxcroy, Dec. 3— Some two months 3 | ago Oxford station was burglarized and over $100 taken, @fficer Jones,o f Amhets.* was sent (o Oxford by Detective Skeffington | to quietly investigate the affiair, Jones | immediately suepected one Bob Kagles,and on returning to Amherst found him at the place and locked him up, not without a bard struggle. After bis arrest a telegram was received by Officer Jones asking him to look out for one Bob Eagles, who was wanted in Truro for cattle stealing. During the first night of Eagles’ incarceration in jail at Amberst he was very anxious as to what was the charge preferred against him. He asked Jailor Acorn, “Am I under arrest for murdering the peddler near Truro?” The jailor replied he did not know, and asked Eagles if he was there. “Oh, I was in the neighborhood at the time ofthe murder.” Eagles wa3 locked upat night, and next morning Officer Jones called to see him, and was surprised that he could not identify him among the other prisoners. Suddenly Jailor Acorn said, “Here’s Eagles,” and sure enough itwas, When Eaglee was putinthe night before be had a very heavy mustache, and the difficulty io identification can readily be understood when itis known that daring the night he deliberately pulled every hair out of his upper lip. Eagles was subsequently taken to Truro and tried for cattle stealing and sentenced to six years in Dorchester Penitentiary. A Moucton resident has communicated the above facts to Detective Power at Halifax, and no doubt he will take some steps io investigate the matter. Young Darte, accused of the murder of the peddler, is now on trial at Truro. _ -_—— oom © HORRORS IN THESSALY. Thousands of Peasants Huddled Together in @ Destitute Condition A representative of the London Greek Refugees’ Society has forwarded a report giving the results of a persona! inspection, made under military escort, ofa number of Thessalian villages, where he touad thousands of the miserable peasantry huddled together in huts, barracks, stables and sleds, in a@ practically desti tue condition. He reports that at least 30,000 sufferers, mostly women and chil- dren, were inapitiable plight, having nothing but the clothes they wore and the tew household requisities which in the hurried fight from their bomes during the war they were able to bring away. About 15,000 refugees were still in Euboea and Boeotia, aed Lady Egerton had done a great deal torelieve the flistress among them; but the 5000 blankets which had been issued were totally ineufficient, aud 10,000 more blankets, at least, were needed. The Greek Government issues flour forthe destitute, but this supply meat during the cold and wet weather. He says that the Turkieh Government is behaving with its usual duplicity in the matter of. repa- triation of the refugees. To the powers high sounding messages have been sent, em- phasizing the imperial benevolence and the ardent desire of the Sultanthat every fe- cilty should be given to the sufferers ip re- surving to their ruined bhomeeteads; but ar a matter of fact, the half-starved peas- ante are harassed at every turn. Thes- saly, he declares, ie a desert, and famine is imminent un/ess the federation of Europe put sufficient oxen and ceed corn into the province under international consular control,as regards distribution of the crops when growing. He concludes by saying that there is no prospect of relief from apywhere except America and Eny- Jand.
