Bagsaoe Thief In Boston Gets Booty I of Greater Worth Than
I Expected.
Boston.—George King of Eagle Lake. Me., bopes the thief who walked off with one of his grips will appre¬ ciate that Its contents are of more value alive than dead. It contained a black fox. whose fur is about the hlgti- est priced on the market The live animal, however. Is valaed by Mr. King for breeding purposes at $1,S00.
Mr. King reached Boston Just after 4 a. ni. on a train from Bangor. As he stepped out of the North staUon a young man offered to carry his bag¬ gage, and was given the bap In which i the fox was concealed. It was so wrapped thnt the nature of its con- I tents was not revealed. |
The thief proliubly jMt the surprise I of his life when he opened the grip. | Mr. King is hoping that he v^as not so ' disgusted as to kill the fos or turn It loose, but WlU care for it in the hope of a reward for Its returu.
Hoping for the Best.
