The Little Jim, a boat belonging to John Winters, which has been at the foot of Lafayette st. Bellevue, has been wrecked by vandals, who took the machinery apart, stole the brass work and damaged the craft to the extent of over $200.

Police were notified but no clue has been secured. The boat was in the ice for a number of weeks and the owner does not know when the theft occurred. Chief Ratliff has the case in hand.
