Pick Pocket attheGytu
naalutu.
Yesterday evening about three o'clock,
a pick pocket gained admittance to the
gymnasium and took •' from the vest
pocket of George Bent, which was hang
ing on the clothes rack, a silver watch
and gold chain, worth about seventy
five dollars. As soon as the "theft was
discovered, Mr. Kent, who Is a lad about
fourteen or fifteen years of age, repaired
to the* Mayor's Mike to make the
fact known and pointed out the party
whom he thought had taken the watch.
The suspected person was arrested and
searched, but nothing was found upon
him to lead to the belief that he was
guilty. It appears there was a stranger
in the gymnasium while Kent was exer
cising on the trapezand it may be possi
ble that the watch left when he did.
There should •be a room provided for the
safe keeping of clothing. which should
be checked and taken charge of by the
janitor and returned only on the presen
tation of the check. The regular mew.
bars, we believe, have boxes with locks
to them, but transient visitors are not
thus provided, and, consequently, if they
remove a mat or hat, must leave it
hanging where any , one can get it.

A Pocket That Waau , t Picked.
A Case of rather a novel characier was
brought before the Mayor yesterday, and
the facts developed before it was con
cluded may possibly give some clue as
to how many pockets are picked, and
why the pickpockets are not arrested.
About four o'clock yesterday after
noon, James O'Halleran, while' in
Georgi's saloon, in the Diamond, declared
that he had been robbed of two twenty
dollar bills, and accused Patrick Dwyer,
who had been conversing with him, with
picking his pocket. Dwyer asserted hi s
innocence and asked to be . searched,
or agreed to go the Mayor's with hie a s
cusor, but O'Halteran would heai to
nothing but the calling of an officer and
having Dwyer arrested. An officer was
accordingly sent for and the accuser and
accused "taken together before the
Mayor, where the accused again asserted
his innocence and permitted the officer
to search him. The money was not
found on his person and he had bad no
opportunity to conceal it after he had been
moused, as he _bad been closely
watched all the tim st a te me n t sutan

O'Halloran created the Impression in the
mind of His Honor that there was some.
thing wrong in the affair. By inquiry he
ascertained that O'Halloran had bukforty .
dollars (two twenty-dollar bills) with ,
him when be entered the saloon, and the
Moor who brought the parties to the
office stated that he had observed O'Hal
loran take money from' his vest pooket
and place it in:a pocket on the inside of
his vest, just as they - entered the office.
The Mayor ordered the officer tq search
. o 'Halleran. and the result was the find
ing of two twenty.dollar bills in the in.
side pocket of his o ffice rler then
asserted that thehad placed it
there, but claimed that it was the same
muney Dwyer bad taken 'from him. The
Mayor did not credit this assertion, how
ever, and Droyer was discharged.
An Information was then made against

Poisoning Dogs.
A contemporary announces that the
work of destroying dogs hut commenced,
and that poisoned sausages and morsels
of meat loaded with strychnine are being
distributed on the streets. It each be
true, the persons so engaged in the taking
off of the tribe of canine should ,- be pun
ished for cruelty to animals. Poison
distributing is a very bad way to aooom-
Nish the end desired, and the authorities
should fr own upon and punish those en
gaged in the ra h wor „ Every dog should
have a fair show fo is life, and if hos
tile measures are to be adopted, let them
be made under the color of law. The
most unpopular act of Hon. George Wi

authorizing the police to distribute
poisoned beef to luckless do: .

Predictions ow a Local for the Month.
One of our locals pretends to have dis
covered an astronomical principle, which
will enable him, hereafter, to anticipate
all occurrences a mouth previous, and in
order to demonstrate that he is right,
lays down the following predictions for
the coming thirty days: April Ist—Hun
dreds of fatuities will remove to inew
quarters. There will be a few fires and
false alarms up to the fifteenth. During
the first ten days the police magistrates
will
pall have
in a dull season, but will putt up
and during the remaining past of
the month. There will be a coal-boat
rise on the 13th of April, and a slight
freshet in the Allegheny about the same
time. The signs are that more thatt•one.
dog will die, between ' this and the 21st.
On the 29t12 there wilt be a death in the
murderer and on the same date a colored
will hand the r e cute
of the
press a full confession of a life full of
awful crimes art&deeds of wickedness.
There will be no murder drin
month, except a legal one, but during
signs
are that there will be an attempt to take
innocent life. On the 24th, or there
abouts, a pardon, fresh from
on
Geary,
will be received at the Western Peniten
tiary. There will be twenty accidents
and seven inquests. Several raids will
be made on bawdy and disorderly houses
in the middle of the month. The paid
fire department bill will be before Coun
cils on the last Monday of the month.
The deaths, In the city, will average 26
per week. Joseph Liebler the_ trunk.
man, No. 104 Wood street, whose large
stock of trunks, valises, hand-sacques,
catper-bags and portfolios attract sq
much attention and secures so - many
patrons, will continue, every business
day of the month, to sell his goods at
wholesale and retail at less prices than
any other establishment in the city. Our
local is positively certain about the truth
of the last prediction, but gives the others
for what they are worth.
Asunsements.
Ornna. Honsx.—The.. engagement 'of
Miss Thompson at the Opera House dur
ing the present week, we regret to say,
has not been so successful as such talent
as MIA Thothpson possesses should be.
Her renditions of the "Lady of Lyons."
"Camille" and -the "Hunchback" were
very fine, and her support in all the
pieces mentioned was all that could be
desired. The public, however, appear to
have bad a surfeit of amusements and
allow Miss Thompson, who has no supe
rior in her line of characters, to play to
small audiences. To-night she will au.
pear in "Fanchon, the Cricket," and on
Friday evening she takes a benefit.
PLTTSDURGIL THEATRE.—The tastes of
patrons of places of amusement it ,ap
pears have undergone a slight change
during the past few weeks, and there is
a strong desire manifested to patronize
the sensational. The Pittsburgh Thea
ter, at which place there is an excellent
.varieties troupe, in addition to the Blan
chard's and their dramatic dogs, has
been
present doing a good business • during the
MYTHE'S AMERICAN EATRE.--Th e
new company at the Am eri cans becona-.
ing decidedly popular with the hfflbitues
of the establishment as well as Myti the
public gsnerally, and the consequce is
that they have been playing to full_houses every night during the week.
ACADEMY OF ^ Musra—the 'Tyrolean
Concert at the Amdemy of Music to
night will be O n E. of the finest !musical
entertainments of the season, and doubt
less our magic-loving people will patron
ize it liberally,

Man. Drowned.
A colored man, whose name we were
unable to learn, was • accidentally
drowned in the Monongahela river above
the Pennsylvania forge, near lock No. .1,
yesterday evening, between five and six
o'clock. It appears he had been at work
with a horse and cart and drove in the
river at the point mentioned to wash the
dirt from his horse and cart. and the
water, being high' the bank gave way and
the driver, horse and cart all sunk. A
nuniber of persons were 'engaged in
searching for the body, but when our in
formant left it had not been recovered.,
