TRICKS OF SHOPLIFTERS.
Ingenious Ways of Smart People to
Get Things for Nothing.
Fiom Tit-Hits.
There is no section of criminals that
display such vnrled ingenuity as shop
lifters,' said a clever detective, who
has had a long cxpeiieiice of the fra
ternity; nnd 1 can ohsuio vou that
many of them might give lessons in
cunning to tho most artful Chinee.
Shoplifting Is a science that appeals
hugely to woman. Their sex, to a
ccitnin extent, disarms suspicion, espe
cially when, aB Is usual, they are ele
gantly dressed, and do their shopping
In a well appointed brougham. Their
di ess gives them unlimited scope for
tlie concealment of small articles; and
again, the game Is so eompatatlvely
flee from risk, for If they are caught
red-handed, a3 a litle, It simply means
an awkward Interview with the pio
prletor and paMuent for the goods ap
pioprlated. You see, It does not pay a fashion
able rhopkeeper to give his house a
bad leputatlon as a haunt of thieves;
and, further, many of tho lady-llftera
nte women with some standing In so
ciety, who nre either kleptomaniacs or
who cannot ic-slst the sudden tempta
tion or annexing a pietty thing with
out payment.
Ladles of this class aie novices In
the nit, and are leadlly detected. A
common pi notice with them is to slip
any small nrtlilo from tlie counter into
their umbrellas when the assistant's
back Is tinned. If detected, It is the
simplest of accidents, and tho culpilt
apologizes piettlly and restates the
ai tide
Another favoilto place of conceal
ment Is In the loose folds of a blouse
or "shin," where anything small will
lie undected, while the mote nrtful
among them have cunningly devised
pockets in their skirts, into which they
inn slip quite a large amount of plun
dei. One lady, who had quite a long and
successful career at counter-stealing,
was always accompanied by a little
gill, ostensibly her dnughter, canying
a large doll. The mother, who was
young nnd pietty, and faultlessly
diessed, would hold the doll while she
was being served (a very natural and
prudent act with a valuable doll,
which tho child might drop at any mo
ment), and when the assistant's atten
tlon was wlthdtawn bhe would slip
Into the hollow lnteiior of the doll any
small aitlcle, fiom a bottle ot scent
to an aitlcle of Jewelry, that might
be lying near.
Jewelers and chemists whose count
ers are crowded with portable articles
of value aie the chief victims of wo
men of this class. The periodical sales
of Inige drapers naturally nffoid good
opportunities for women thieves man)
of them, I am sorry to say, women of
social position. In the Inevitable crush
It Is an easy thing to annex fiom the
counter a costly piece of laci, a rem
nant of silk or a few yoids of ribbon,
and theie nie many women with we'l
fllled purses who cannot u-slst the
temptation of stealing a shilling's
worth of 1 llibon at the lisk of social
disgrace and mln.
Of emu s.e. as I dire.wy )ou know.
nearly all fit ins employ women detec
tive", smartly, dressed and of ladylike
appeal a nte, who mix with the crowd
of putchaseis. and have a eiy keen
eye Indeed for these peculations. TIkpj
1 women ire- regulnily employed by tho
III ins, live on the premlrcs, nte paid
I from CI 10s to 2 10s. v week, and
keep an e)e as much on the assistants
ns on their eustontus.
The tiltks of the male shoplifter are
much more v.uiid and subtle than
those of his female ilval. A veiy com-
I mon pinctlee Is to catry a stick or
iimhtelln with a hollow receptacle at
the top. A spring rebasts the silvei or
gold-mounted top; the stolen aitlcle,
which must naturally be small as It Is
valuable, Is slipped Into the padded
hollow and the top sptung back aguln
Into position.
A very skillful thief made a hiding
place- of the hollow part of nn aitlflclil
forearm, into which he could palm an
article with lightning rapidity. One of
the latest devices is to wear a glove
with a pocket or a seiles of pockets In
the palm, nnd, while examining small
aitleles of Jew city, rings, broches, gold
pendants, and so on, to slip one or more
Into tho concealed pocket by a prac
tlc ed movement of the fingers.
Another trick Is to carry some ad
hesive substance in the palm of the
gloves, and by carelessly resting tho
palm on nn article of Jewelry to re
move It. Tho opportunities for exer
cising these- tilcks while the assist
ant's back Is turned, or while he Is at
tending to another customer, are man)t
Put much shoplifting is done with tho
help of a confederate, who strolls In
rasually while No. 1 Is making his pui
