VITT BULLETIN.
ROMANCE IN AN EMPTY POCKET-1;00K.
Of the various " manias" is one as yet unpro
vided with a name. The term applied to an
irresistible propensity toward larceny is known
as " kleptomania ;" for the uncontrollable de
sire to make extravagant purchases from an
empty eitchequer the lexicographers have as
yet provided no name.
• Every once in awhile an illustration of this
kind of : proclivity creates a flutter in the retail
trade. The
d emonstrations are generally made
at periods when business is dull, and when, a
thousand-dollarcustomer is treated with a de
gree of deference that in busy times it would
scarcelyte possible to extend. The subjects
of thiti"mental malady are almost invariably,
ladies. To say that they are people .of plau
sible address, and •gifted with conversational
poweit above the degree of mediocrity, would
be saying something that to the 'intelligent
reader la entirely superfluous.
Such a lady presented herself; some months
ago, in the business -Office of an attorney in
this city. She wore a plain waterproof cloak,
a simple bonnet and a blue veil. She is about
forty years of age. By the attorney she was
received' with characteristic courtesy, and her
confidence invited as to any legal services she
. Sho -introduced herself as 1".1 rs.
P., - atel;om Ashland, Mass., who" had been
advised, by eminent medical gentlemen, to
seek in the blander atmosphere of Philadel
phia, a Cure for a laryngal affection, that had
passedfrom the acute stage into the seriously
chronic. What she wanted of the attorney,
she said, was that supervision over an exten
sive moneyed estate for which she had been
assured he was so Acellently qualified. The
attorney assured her that he felt flattered. by
her preference, and that his best services
- were at her disposal. . What she desired was,
Morally,. that he should become her banker as
well as her attorney, both of which duties, of
course, he agreed to assume.
The lady then took leave, promising to re
peat her 'Visit at an early day:
The next we hear of her she was purchasing
a house. 'With four or five property-owners
she had frequent interviews upon the subject.
She proposed to purchase for cash. For this
reason she was sought out by various real
estate agents, and altogether her time must
have been well put in. We hear of her in
various quarters of the city, always ladylike
and polished in mien
and entrenched in a
certain suave simplicity that elicited not only
respect, but interest in her. For three weeks
she Vali deliberating upon the purchase of a
house on Arcii street.. The price was agreed
upon, and terms were to be cksh previous to
possession. The owner courteously extended
facilities to the trades-people who came to
measuretthe rooms for carpets, the ceilings for
the height of the wardrobes, and windows for
the cortices and hanging.
Meanwhile the stranger had engaged board
at a fashionable establishment in Spruce street.
She introduced herself to the' landlady as a
resident of Ashland, Mass., whose baggage
Ind been lost in iransitu to Philadelphia; in
funds to the amount ofthree thousand
dollars.. As a reference, she named the well
known gentleman in Arch street whose house
she had agreed to buy. That she was sent
there, as she stated, was evidence of respscta
hility.so presumptive that the landlady didn't
even trouble, herSelt to inquire concerning her
previous to receiving her. She at once ac
commodated the stranger with a comfortable
TO0111;,
We next hear of her taking the lady with
her to the Arch street house,
and asking her
advice as to the character of the furniture she
should buy. ,She took her, also, to a well
known chestnut street `carpet-house, to a
cloak. store, to a linen establishment and to
China Hall. The ouantitios of merchandise
that she 'here ordered 'were in the aggregate
very large. How many other people she in
the same way troubled is more than we
know. She was so destitute of apparel that
at the boarding-house she borrowed a robe de
null from the chamber-maid. Her only bag
gage Were the tooth and hair brush which she
earriediiihet - peeket;
Still ; she must have had some friends in the
city whose identity is not known. At one time
:she. came in with a different cloak, but she
never went out without first obscuring all
view of her features by the inevitable blue
veil. If a suspicion crossed the mind of the
kind-hearted landlady ~it was dispelled by the
iittittlate acquaintance that seems to have been
possessed by the stranger with the elite of Bos
ton and vicinity. With the family of Governor
Sprague she seemed to possess endearing in
timacy. Two Boston 'families had boarded at
this house some time previously. When in
terrogated,she answered as accurately as if she
had known them from childhood.
That she had a penny at any time about her
is now doubted. No remittances came. The
Arch street house-owner became disgusted at
her vacillation, and abandoned the idea of
selling her his house. No goods had been de
livered to her. The tender heart of the land
lady was the last to harbor a belief that the
stranger was either a moral or a legal fraud.
A request was at last made that she would
vacate her room. The Arch street house
owner, the lady ascertained, declined to be a
voucher for her mysterious guest.
We next hear of her an applicant for rooms
at La Pierre House. She was willing to
pay for them at once, though not desirous of
immediate occupancy other than for the
storing of purchases that she proposed to
make. The proprietor referred her to the
superintendent of the house to close the bar
gain. What the superintendent saw when he
entered the parlor was a lady who had pre
viously applied for rooms there in the name of
MrsJilleau. That such was the case the lady
positively denied. , The Mrs. Bleau, she
claimed, was a cousin of hers, and not herself.
The superintendent being positive to the con
trary, declined to receive her, and the lady
went away.
In the course of her operations we - learn
the stranger had an interview with ono of the
heads of the banking-house of Jay Cooke &
Co., in this city. She claimed to hold in her
own right an estate of three hundred thou
sand dollars. The object of her visit was to
inquire if she could make deposits there, and
check against them as in an ordinary bank: -
Eihe represented also to a real estate dealer in
Arch street that her possessions were fifty
thousand dollars—rather a different estimate
from the one as above.
Since her departure various small duns have
come for her to the Spruce-street boardingr
house; One t)f . them is a bill of $ 2l to a cab
. Weer. It3he used this in visiting the various
stores and factories that she proposed to
afiatronize. Fortunate for the linen-draper
and the carpet-dealer, they cut pone of the
goodifthat the stranger selected. The curtain
moan also waited to see whether he got his
money before putting scissors into his moquet

SAVER KRAUT VS. BROOMSTICK.S.—AIder
man William B. Heins is the committing
magistrate of the Eleventh Police District.
At the station-house he presides with becom
ing ilignity, and disposes of his cases like a
first-clasg Judge. The most of his oases result
troth a too free indulgence in molasseS
wlOky; and its the payment of drunken fines
is too much of a luxury for the inhabi
tants of his bailiwick, he always keeps on
hand a full supply of commitments. At his
&bee ho has all sorts of people to deal with,
and somethnes has some very funny. cases.
Yesterday-a diminutive Teuton. entered noise
lessly, walked up to the desk. and exclaimed:
"Ich will meine frau arretiert haben 1", The
Alderman is a little hard of hearing, and
didn't catch the remark. lie looked up, saw
the man, and said blandly, " Well, sir, what
can I do for you?"
"Ich will meine frau arretiert haben." •
A]d.—l don't understand yot.
Complainant—Sprechon sae kein Deutsch?
Ald—No.
Complainant—Nein?
Ald.—Nine what?
Complainant—Vel ) you see, Mishter Alder
man, mein Iran, she dreat me very bad, all
de vile. She lickme mit de broomstick and
tears mein hair. Shust look at mein head.
See dat big luinp? I can't shtand her no
more, so I vents her to be taken by de con
sbtable.
The Alderman made out a warrant, charg
ing assault and battery, called his constable,
and banded him the document tor execution.
Constable went out, and in a few minutes re
turned with a rosy-faced, dumpty German
woman, neatly as broad as she was long, and
with a tongue something less than a yard in
length. She-had scarcely got inside the door
before she yelled : " Hero I am ; vat you vaut
mit me ?".
Alderman to complainant—Take the book.
COmplainant—Vat I vant miG a book? Me
no vant a book ; me vant you to do me right.
Alderman—You must swear.. 4
Complainant—Oh, dat ish it,bey ? All.right.
The oath was then administered, and. the
complainant repeated his grievances, with the
addition that , when he was struck with the
broomstick-ho 101 l down and his wifespank'ed
him.
• Prisoner-:Yaw—l lick him.
Alderman—You keep quiet.
Prisoner—l vanta to dell you all about it.
Alderman—Wait awhile. Jacob, have you
anything further to say? '
Complainant—Nein.
Alderman to prisoner—Now,what.have you
to say?
„ .
Prisoner—Vel, Alderman, mein man ish
always making a fuss. He drinks beer, k-ums
borne, mid says dings be no right. To-day ye
had sailer ” kraut. I dinks I knows how to
cooks saner, kraut. He dikes some, und den
Fay it be not good for ho g s to eat. I gets mad,
knocks him down mit'de broomstick und
kicks him out..
Ald.- 2 ,lacob, if I send yonr wife to prison
who will cook your saner kraut for you? You
had better make it up.
Jacob—Me no vant her sent to prison. Me
shust, vant you to dell her dat she musht do it
no more. '
. -
Prisoner—l'acob be a goot husband yen he
no make a fuss.
Alderman—Well, shake hands and make
it up..
The couple looked at each other. Jacob
promised to eat"the sailer kraut without
making a fuss," and his wife seized him by
the band. Jacob turned to the magistrate and
said : Dank you, Mishter Alderman ;" and
the apparently happy couple departed.
The constable lost his expected fee,and was
very disconsolate thereat.
The Court then adjourned for lunch.
FIRES.—This morning, about half-past
twelve o'clock, a fire occurred in the fourth
story of a building No. &A Pine street. The
apartment was occupied as an upholstery, by
Adolph Hoehling, eabinet-maker, and the fire
was confined to it. The lower part of the
premises was somewhat injured by water.
The Hibernia Fire Company was the first
on the ground. The fire-plug taken was found
lo he frozen-, and nearly ten minutes elapsed
before the Company could get into service.
•Shortly before two o'clock this morning a
tire was discovered in the old three-storied
builling, No. 116 South Fourth street. The
flames originated in the cigar store of Montijo
Poi•tuofd6, on the first floor, and the stock
and fixtures in the store were entirely de
stroyed. The fire ran up the staircase to the
roof, but did not do much damage in the upper
part of the building. The firm occupied the
entire building. Theirstock and fixtures were
valued at "5,660, and were insured for 5+3,000
in the Stale Insurance Company, at Cleve
land. Ohio.
. -
This morning about half-past-four o'clock
flames were observed issuing from the fourth
story window of the --large -four-storied iron
front building, No. 439 Chestnut street. The
alarm was- promptly. given, and. the.fireinen
were soon upon the ground. The fire was con
fined to the front part of the room in which it
originated, but did --comiderable damage
there.
The fourth and fifth Stories are occupied by
John Wadding & Son, manufacturers of blank
books. The stock, fixtures, machinery, &c.,
are valued at about $15,000. The firedamaged
only a small portion, but considerable injury
was done by water. The firm has insurances
amounting to $12,500, which will more than
cover their loss. The insurances are in the
following companies: Mechanics' $1,000;
Springfield, Ma55.,52,500; North !America,
$2,500 ; County, $3,000, and Reliance,•s3,soo.
The third story is occupied by Jaoob Lutz,
manufacturer of pocket-books. His stock was
protected by the covers of the Insurance Pa
trol, but sustained considerable damage from
water.
The basement and first and second stories
are occupied by R. Penistan, dealer in wines,
liquors and cigars. He has on hand a very
extensive stuck, which suffered somewhat by
water. The loss is fully covered by insu
rance.
The building belongs to Mrs. Fred. Brown,
and the loss by the damage to it is fully iu,
sured.
ACCIDENTS TO FIREMEN.—.Joseph Yorks
ton, a member of the Washington Hose Com
pany, was run over by the apparatus of that
company at Fifth and Pine streets, early this
morning, and bad his legs badly injured. He
was taken to his home, No. 411 South Eleventh
street.
Micimel Redding, of the Good Intent Hose
Company, had his wrist broken by having his
hand caught in the cylinder of the carriage,
while running on hose, after the fire in Fourth
street.

"-Quite likely; bad the finest lot of birds that

" I remember them, but what I want is to

" And you didn't pay for it when you

"No mistake at all. Here, take your money

Mr. Smith smiled all over his face. "Here's

What be actually did Was to ' draw out and
hand over ter the model customer the'sum of

in cbange,to a restaurant•keeper.
"Don t take that kind of money," was the
prompt remark. •
" And Why not?"
"Because Its a counterfeit; isn't worth a
shilling a peck." . .
Such proved to be the case. The poor ',Terseyman swore. Who ceuld blame him?
enOWDER.—The promenades are less bril
liant than usual to-day—probably because the
ladies don't like to spatter their stockings.
Greenthings are lieginning to show them
selves iu the markets. By this we refer to
springvegetables, not to the people who sell
them. Early amass looked lovely ; ' so did
early radishes. The latter are eagerly snapped
up. Spinach and celery are the !present staples.
The soil of a cemetery in West Virginia is
said to petrify, within a few weeks after in
terment, every body' that is consigned to its
dust. On the Barbary coast we have known
the same thing to be done in a single week. In
the way of hardening the heart a few days of
mathematical, cheating will perform wonders.
A physician of this city informs us, in his
opinion, the younger a medical man is the
more " hard words he should use. The turn
ing point in his personal fortune was in
writing a prescription in which he ordered
the " seequicarhuret of saw-dust." The pre
scription went the rounds of all
the apothecary stores in Philadelphia.
it was ultimately " put up "
in Soutli.street. The most successful practi
tioner in all South Carolina is a young gentle
• man from Mullica Hill. •.His work on the
" MegalaUthroponegesia," put to press .on the
morning after the reception of his sheep
skin, secured his fortune 'inside of six months
after the date of its publication.
We this morning witnessed the transit of
'Venus in crossing (chestnut street, 'between
Tenth and Eleventh. With a proper
course of fresh air and freedom every lady
may render herself healthful if not: handsome.
For a girl to expect to be either, with the ac
tion of lungs depending upon the expan
siveness of a cent's worth of twilled tape, is as
absurd as to look for a growth of Japanese
lilies in a snow-drift or a full-grown oak in a.
