On a late trip of one or thfe cars on the Eleventh
Btrect Railroad, on Tuesday nieht, rode three
pickpockets. They undertook to rob the con
ductor, who aw their irr.rne and ordered tbem
out ol the vehicle. KetnmnR to leave, the con
(tractor took the biggest one hy the neck-tie hnd
the rear portion ol his trousis and chucked
him clean over the platform. Anotner of the
pickpockets, with a duns-shot, eimed a blow at
the conductor, that at the moment ho did not
reel, bnt that afterwards proved to be a severe
one. He, however, struck the thief in thebreust
with his eJbow, anJ then, seizing the none of the
. rogue, so twisted it that, if pronerly annealed
and tempcied, It mhibt oe made to do the duty
ol a two-meh aueur. By this time the villain
first thrown over the dauber had recovered and
was rallying to the attnek. The driver had
rtopped his horseg and was trying to unscrew
the handle of the brake. Had he succeeded
homicide might have been the result. Fortu
nately, the handle wouldn't come off. The
driver and conductor ultimately to thrashed the
three thieves that they lorbore to pursue them
I Briber, and the trio limped away bruised,
bleeding, and altogether nmerable and forlorn.
At the Central Station, yesterday, Thomas
Puocan was brought up for a further hearing
on the charge of pockpt-picking. Defendant was
arrested several ' days an o. Biter jumping from
a car on Arch sircet, and throwing a port
monnaie away which hud been taken from the
pocket of a passenger, and ' the hearing was
continued to enable the officers coucernod In
the arrest to have precent the gentleman whose
pocket had been picked. He had not, how
ever, been found, and on the tentiniony of a
man w ho saw Duncan leap from the car and
throw the portmonnaie into the street, he was
held ior trial.
The Fbakklin Institute. The regular
monthly meeting of me Franklin Institute was
held last evening. After the usual business, the
KeMdent Secretary, Professor Henry Morton,
read his monthly report on Novelties in Science
and the Mechanic Arts. Anion? various inte
resting descriptions und illustration, was a new
plan tor the management of the lime light, in
which were used strong iron reservoirs ior the
ditlerent gases, into which these were forced
under heavy the pressure of 300 to 450 lbs. per
square inch, rendering the apparatus very com
pact and eas.v ot transportation, and jets of a
new torm. Many interesting applications ot the
light bo arranged were described, among others,
its use in the reduction ol Fort Wagner, which
was very entertaining. An electrical machine
of entirely new principle and construction was
also exhibited, and many other important novel
ties were discussed.
Ma kino A Clean Sweep. Some weeks
ago, whl.e a family residing at No. 1142 N. Ele
venth street was at Atlantic City, a young man
named Thompson went to a dealer in second
hand furniture and sold the contents of the pre
mises, making a clean sweep of them, the arti
cles realizing about live hundred dollars. Upon
the return of the family their astonishment may
be imagined to dibcover that the furniture had
been carried off. A search was made for it, and
it was finally discovered at the store ot the
second-hand dealer who bought it. He told
from whom he had purchased it, and why he
had done so. The otlender was out of the city
at the time, but was arrested upon his return,
and rras been bound over by the Recorder to
answer the ollense of theit. The dealer has been
compelled to return the goods, and is out of
pocket about five hundred dollars. t

A man of the same name was aliuded to by

THE DUBLIN BANQUET TO MR. BRIGHT.
The following is Mr. Bright's letter accepting
an Invitation to a banquet in Dublin in ,the
course of next month :
'TO JOHN B. DILLON, ESQ., M. P., DUBLIN.

Colloquial Telegraphy Across the Conti
nent. The Chicago Republuan of the 14th sayM
The wires worked well last night across ttie con
tinent, and San Francisco wanted to shake
hands with Aspy Bay, or, as the phrase is, "get
him." So Buffalo parsed the word, and from
"away down east," came the answer and this
conversation: . -.
Baiioor, lie , September 18, 11 86 P. If .Who
calls? What lime have you got?
"fi Krahcibco, September 13. Time, 8 C6.
Can't yon givo us London?
-Bakook, 11 88 P. M. Guess not, to-night.
' liotTO, September 13, 11401. M. Ho about
Major Pope?
"ms Francisco, Sett ember 13. Guess he's gone
home. Give ns Aipy."
Several minutes of mlxd rappings along the
wires, and HuUalo reported Bangor thought he
was being looted, and being a strict Yankee,
wasn't to be caught again. Then Boston, who
seems not till now to have seriously compre-.
bended the situation, came in with a direct ap
plication to Son Francisco for a weather report,
and an item Iresh irom the Pacific, which was
notrepponded to; and alter New York and San
Francisco, who are vised to it, had had a little
talk, the operators along the route resumed
business. The Joke on Bangor is. that a Ban
Francisco circuit had never before been opened
up to him, and he was not prepared to believe
it. The atmospheric condition was accidental,
and, properly seized with attentive "adjust
ments" along the line, we might have had Aspy
Bay and Puget Sound talking together. It wiil
be done yet.
