P., on Friday evening last, as the outcome of an escapade at Benmiller the day before. The boys were coming up from near Toronto to hoe sugar beets at Arthur McNeil's farm in Col- borne and when passing through Benmil- kr their spirit of adventure led them in- to mischief. They stayed at the village only a little While, but mad* full use of their time. They crawled through a win- dow into the Orange Hall, broke open several boxes, and abstracted some Orange badges which they took along with them Breaking into the school. they picked up and carried away the school flag. At the Temperance Hall they contented themselves with breaking a window ir so. but they entered the church and broke open the door of the library, although it is not thought any- thing was removed. On Friday evening, when the boys came up in the Police Court, some of the Ben - miller people were on hand to identify the stolen articles. Damages and costs amounted to 830.44, which sum was paid by the man in charge of the boys and wiU presumably be deducted from their wages. LOCAL TOPICS IN BRIEF.
