NOTED BOOK THIEVES
HISTORICAL FIGURES WHO STOLE
UNIQUE VOLUM€S.
faspector General Llbri W»i the
Kfnsr of the BiblloLlept Tribe—A
Cardinal, a l!i«hop and n Prle»t In
fected Willi tl«e Mania.
Book stealing is an art upon which
much Ingenuity hns been expended.
One never knows !n what form it will
next break out. It is au incident by no
means uncommon in Booksellers' row
for a bibliopole to be offered a book
which had been stolen from his next
door neighbor. There is something
more than a tradition to the effect that
a bookseller lias on occasion purchase#
a book taken a minute or two previous
ly from the shelves outside his shop!
A favorite mode of stealing books
from public libraries is to procure a
book, Bit down to read It and then
wrap it up in an overcoat and after
this to take up a paper or magazine.
The rest is easily guessed. The public
libraries suffer in all sorts of ways, for
here the accumulated wisdom of tbe
thief finds plenty of scope. Some of
the tribe have a mania for old directo
ries. Librarians complain frequently
of the clerical thief of sermons and
theological literature.
Novels and '"books of the bibliophile" ,
fas th# French call them) one can un
derstand being stolen, but sermons
and theology! Women, more or less— |
generally more respectably dressed. |
Are often objects of suspicion with li
brarlans, for the "receptivity"_of cloaks
Is infinite, and the "feelings" of the
culprit must also be considered. As a
general rule, the thief is well dressed
and educated and frerpiently well to
do.
Whatever may be the causes which
prompt n j»er=on to steal books, there
is always this consolation —he is in
good comi>fin.v. This balm may not be
a very healing one to the soul of the
person books are stolen, but It
must be consolatory to the thief when
repenting in prison to know that some
great and good men have been touched
with the same species of insanity.
Ilearne, in his "Jotoinnes Glastoni
ensis," more than hints that Sir Thom
as Bodley had a weakness in this di
rection. "If you hold," he warns Sir
Henry Saville, "any book so deare as
that you would bee loath to have him
out of your sight, set him aside," etc.
Moore, bishop of Ely, has likewise
come under such a stigma. The anec
dote runs to this effect: A gentleman
calling on a friend who had a very
choice library found him unusually
busy In putting his best books out of
sight. Upon asking his view in this he
was answered, "Don't you know the
bishop of dines with me today?"
The very" king of book stealers was
Libri, who, as inspector generbl of
French libraries under Louis Philippe,
had special facilities for helping him
self and whose known thefts have been
valued at £20,000. The most interesting
illustration of this man's depredations
was exposed in IS<>S, when Lord Asli
hurnhani issued a translation of the
Pentateuch from a Latin manuscript
which had been purchased by the late
Lord Asliburnliam from Libri, who had
SQld it under the condition that it was
not to be published for twenty years.
It bad been stolen in 1547 from the
Lyons library, and tbe last clause of
the agreement, therefore, could be eas
ily understood. Libri evidently was not
one of those whom Jules Janin de
scribes as "people who don't think it
thieving to steal a book unless you sell
it afterward."
Innocent X., when still Mgr. Pam
philio, stole a book from Du Moustier.
who was Himself a book thief and
ought to have been en courant with tin
devices audi designs of his own weak
nesses. It is refreshing to come across
an example when tbe tallies are so
completely turned, and if anything
would induce an honest man to turn
book thief it should be the exhilarat
ing fun of stealing from another thief.
It is reported, however, that Du Mous
tier recovered the book and thrust tbe
cardinal out of the house.
Catheriuade' Medici went In forstea!
ing books by wholesale and barefaced.
She seized the line library of Marshal
Strozzl and promised to pay bis sou for
it in installments, but never a farthing
did he get.
Of another and equally extreme type
was the Spanish priest Don Vincento,
who sold books ajfd then murdered the
purchasers to regain possession of his
coveted treasures. Like most of tke
blblioklept tribe, be came to grief at
last. Tbe original edition (1482) of the
"Furs e ordinacions fetes per los glorl
osoß Hoys de Arago als regnicois del
Itegne de Valencia" was offered for
sale by auction and after a long and
obstinate competition was knocked
down to a bookseller named Paxtot.
A week after Paxtot's shop was
burned down, and be was suffocated
at the same time. Suspicion was di
rected toward Don Vincento, whose
residence was searched, and there at
length was discovered the incunabule
above named. The priest was arrest
ed, and at the hearing be confessed,
not from contrition or the fear of tor
ments In the next world, but because
It appeared that the volume was not
unique, as bad been supposed. lie sob
bed violently when he was condemned
to be strangled, and the only defense
he vouchsafed was, "Ah, your worship,
my copy was not unique^"—St. James
Gazette.
Tall Beaver Story.
A story comes from the Yellowstone
National park to the effect that a keep
er caught and tamed n young beaver.
When left in a room alone one day,
the youngster asserted Its inherited
traits of Industry and Muilt a dam

MORE MEN ARE LEARNING
everj day that its better to
pay a little more for clothes
made to measure than to
try to save a few dollars,
simply because the few
thereby saved sacrifices the
value of the clothes. It is
impossible to cheapen the
workmanship of good clothes
without destroying their
value.
Give us your order for our
S3O sack suit and we will
give you an interesting
example of comfort and
economy. Our abundant
assortment of new fall goods
affords every opportunity for
a choice selection.
