. ON K CLASS OF THIEVES.
The ingenuity employed by lhe
thieves of this city is something
miraculous. Were the same talent
aud energy expended upon legiti
mate pursuits, it would make every
oue of them independently rich and
of sumo Use to the world. It is oue
of tbe mysteries ef human nature
why a mau capable of pulling up a
scheme equal in point of vasiness
with tbe best of Tom Scott's railroad
plans, aud involving infinitely more
labor, should devte himself to tbe
making of small sums illegally, and
takiug all chances tbat such opera
tions carry. .
With the small oaes it is the tame
as with the large ones. The favorite
dod.'e ibis wiu.cr is peddling. A
woman appears at an aroa door with
a satchel of small goods, pins, needles,
or what not. Ry hook or crook she
gets up stairs into the main hall, aud
ibeu her object is accomplished.
She tries hard tJ sell, fur she wants
all the time possible. Nothing es
capes her eye. She takes the meas
ure of the hail so accurst ly tbat she
could walk blindfolded to any given
spot. She takes in tbo position of
ttie doors, tbe kinds of fastenings iu
side, and if left a moment to hcr&elt
she gets an impression in wax of the
key holes. The posiJon of bolts or
other fastenings are observed in
short, she ojuics awuv with an ac
curate photograph in her oiioj of

A most painful accident occurred
I
at one of tbe riucial theatres of
thin eny tbe other mghr. A young
and very beautiful girl iu the ballet
corpf, w bo, dwrinif iho run of a
spectacular piece bad personated an
ant I. died Midde.i'v iu the theatre j
HI hi'l Mflrf. iiri1- il. i- ii j nrrm'.

the Kcer.e. a In- e.X' tte ment w as m
tense.'as may be supp sed behind
lhe scenes. There were; to hun
dred pe. ple iu the place, aud in five
miuctes the entire ct mpany was as
semble d aro itid the ina'iiiu ite form
of the gill. The women cried aud
wiuug their hands, r.nd the m?n
"albeit uni:cd to the inching mood,"
could not restrain their emotions.
Rut tbe piece hat? to go on a!! the
same. Another angel's dress was
improvised and put upon anotber
girl, the bell rang, up went the
curtain, crash went the orchestra,
and on went the piece, tbe audience
never dreaming that tbe smiling
faces before them were Wet with
tears, and that in the dressing-room
lay a corpse. The girl died of absolute
stavatiou. Her salury wa3 tbe regu
lation oiieof$:! per week, on which
she had to support five persous. She
was beautiful, anil could have sold
herself for a high price ; high enough
to have had all tho comforts of
life and even its luxuries, but s-lie
prefered hunger and eobl to shams
asid sin, and so died. Sue hail been
sick for weeks, but had not h..d ajpi.-tol. Another negro named Rellj

There hs r.othi lg new been
developed iu the cae which calls
for special comment. The populace
have ihus ur been hcrnuly disap
pointed because Reecher has not
been put oj the stand. The appe
tite grows on what it leeds on. Af
ter such high seasoned dishes as
Til'on, Moulton and Mrs. Moultou,
the Ovingtons were liat and insipid.
The spicy Reecher was required to
keep up the strain. Tbe chairman
of tbe leeturec Jinmitt e at Wiosted.
Count-client, swore that the young
lidy in Tiltou's room who was de
scribed by Tiiton as "a mere school
girl of 17," was a mature girl of 27
or CO, aud tbat the condition of dress
ia which he found them was not al
together so proper as it might have
bt-'en, though what tbat has 1o do
with the question as to Reecher's
guilt with Mrs. Tiiton, I am unable
to sec. Possibly the idea is tbat
if il can be established tbat Tiiton
strayed into the forbidden paths, bis
wife and pastor had a perfect right
to do tbe same.
A prominent n.e.ubir of Reech
er's church told mc tbat the trial
bad affected Reecher's Church seri
ously that over one-half of the old
sland-bys had gone out, and that the
immense attendance counted tor
nothing, as it was made up largely
by strangers w ho went from sheer
curiosity to see tbe man. There is
some truth iu this, but how much I
am unable to say. I know person
ally very many families who Lave
been regular in their attendance at
tbe church for years, w ho have with
drawn under the belief that whether
all that is eb-irged is true or not,
enough is true to make him an uu'it
man to keep bis place io such a
church. And vet the pews sold
higher than ever. Probably tbe new
comers in Rrooklvti iveie those who
made lhe investments. There are
seventy-live -.vitnesses yet te) be ex
amined, so tbo trial will probably
isi a 3 ear. Tbe testimony thus far
makes a c.o.-ely priuleel octavo vol
ume of ('.(it) pliers.
nusiNRys
continues dull, generally speaking,
ihourh some branches show an im
provement. The merchants, how
ever, are Lorefal, ar.d tbe feeling that
a good spring trade must be had, is
jrcnernl. I be weather is tctrible.
