One of my men caught Moses wnile he was getting uway with the goods. "There were half ft dozen people around within ft few fret of the sheep breeder and Moses when tbe theft was committed. This is no fairy tale. lt was one of the big days of the show," continued the captain. "The Canadian was busy talking to some western people about his breed of rtieep.

He edged up to the group around the Canadian. One. of my plain-clothes men caught tight of him and he noticed that Moses was busy with his hands. "He could not see what the fellow was doing, and waited. In a few mo ments Moses dropped something into his overcoat pocket. The plain-clothes man took hold of him and, reaching into the overcofut pocket, drew out a ball of red yarn. He walked Moses back to the group, and, holding out the ball of yarn, asked if any of the man had been 'touched.' They looked and shook their heads negatively. The next mornig the Canadian came over to he police station. He wanted to know if that 'old Jew' was under ar otat. Moses had been run in on general , principles, and I asked the caller what had happened to him. He held up a ted sock. 'The Jew stole the other,' be said to me. 'See here,' and he put bis cowhide boot on a chair in my office and pointed to a little hole in the toe. 'Yesiterday afternoon that fellow stole my sock through this hole. He unraveled It and wound it into ball. One of your men caught him, hut I did not know the yarn belonged to me until last night when I pulled off my boot and I found the sock was gone.' "Moses admitted the theft. He said, ha saw a bit of the red sock through the hole in the toe of the boot, and he aoticed it was a pood quality of yarn, and taking the blade of his knife he started the raveling, knowing that the man was too busy talking to pay any attention to the loss of a sock." Tremiurc Hidden In Mouth, False teeth are occasionally used for secretive purposes. There is a Chi iiago man who curries 20 diuniouds ot ear value and beauty in his mouth; but these are set in the roof plates, sprite out of sight, and to preserve them the owner refrains from taking hot Cbod or strong beverages. There is ione romance attached to the jewels, and the wearer is anxious to keep them jut of the sight of his relatives. . A srill in a set of artificial teeth is some unat unusual, yet an eccentric old lady leasts a roof plate which consists oi two thin sheets of gold, between which a copy of her will in miniature is in aertcd. In like manner a chemical dyer preserves a prescription, which he de clares he would not give up for untold malth. Tker Lead a Hetlred Mfe. A quiet life in led by Mr. and Mrs. Reiche, of California.
