ELTHAM.
By Our Travelling Reporter. April 9. One of the lads in the Boys' Home tvoke adrift from Ilia moorings last week, and in the course of a cruise round town made many portß of call and lifted some cargo that will be analysed this week. In the afternoon a lady informed tho local constable that as she was enjoying afternoon tra or shopping early to avoi.l the Easter crush some hold brigand had entered her premises. ; lie knew it was one of the masculine gender by the untidy state in which he left the rooms. Her investigations went further and she found the home was minus a medal, some silver, a watch, and other articles. The boy was nimble and the policeman game, and for a few minutes the people in the vicinity enjoyed the spectacle of police v. boy enjoying a game of hide-and-seek or catch-as-catch-can amongst the hurdles and races of a stock yard. The long arm of the law held the culprit, who will come before the Court in due course.
