' A LUNATIC'S IMITATION.

A Purls corrcHpomlcut tells nu Inter
esting story of how n shop thief tvns
ruptured recently nt the Hon Mnrcho
In elreumstiiuees that 111 all probability
are iiniiitie. One of the private detect
ives In the pny of tho establishment
noticed a inn n who, with the most
bnrcfucei! effrontery, was impropriat
ion nrtlelen of every descrlirtlon. The
I ii 1 1 l1 tin I Indeed seemed to make lit
tle or no n I tempt to keep hi operations
secret. He simply walked from coun
ter to counter it ml II I led his pockets
with whatever attracted Ills fancy.
In spite of the strnngeness of the
man's procecdlnss there was nothing,
to lie done but to have him arrested,
and lie was given Into custody. His In
dignation was extreme. He protested
that It was moat unjust that ho should
foe Interfered with In this way when
other people who were behaving In ex
actly the same manner were left un
molested, and he pointed to a stout
gentleman of moat respectable appear
ance who he asserted hud been lay
ing his hands on all sorts of goods
without resorting to tbr formality of
paying for them.
The pnllceiiuiti (o whom he had been
given In charge had been accustomed
to listening to unconvincing explana
tions and took his prisoner to the sta
tion. A few in t mites later the stout
gentleman, also In the care of a police
man. arrived at the same destination.
The detective, whose curiosity had
been aroused, hnd watched the per
sonnge and hnd found It to be true that
be was perpetrating theft after theft
with the utmost dexterity.
After a short Investigation lie was
recognized to be an expert and notori
ous shoplifter, whereas the prisoner
first arrested proved to be a lunatic
but recently discharged from an asy
lum, whose mania took the form of
Imltutlng any person who might hap
pen to strike him. The professional
tlilef was liesldu himself with rage at
what he described as the bad luck of
getting Into trouble through the vaga
ries of a madman.

"Of all the outlandish weapons ever

man of the south side, "I think I
brought the most fantastic on record
Into play one night last week. My
family is away on a visit nt present,
and I am keeping bachelor ball out at
the house. On tho night to which I re
fer I was aroused at about : a. m. by a
noise somewhere In the region of tho
dining room, and. thinking I hud shut
up Hie dog there, I Jumped up very
foolishly and came down stairs in my
nlghtclntlies without so much as a
pocketknlfe.
"When I opened the dining room
door, I whs startled to sco a big, rough
looking muu bending over the side
board at the far end of the room, and
after we had stood there en tableau for
a moment the fellow made a rush at
me. I leaped back Into the hull aud
glared around for a weapon. On a ta
ble near by were a dozen Incandescent
light bulbs, which I hud brought home
to replace some that had burned out,
nod purely by lustlnct I grubbed one of
them and threw it at the burglar. It
hit the door enxlng close to his head
and, to my amazement, exploded with
a noise like a young lyddite shell.
"I suppose It was a still greater sur
prise to the other fellow, for ho let out
a yell and broke for tho rear, followed
by a rapid fire bombardment of 10 can
dle power lucnndcsccuts, which I con
tinued to chuck at hlui as loug as ho
remained In rauge. They smashed
against the furniture with a series of
crashes that alarmed the whole neigh

fragments of broken glass ever since.

"I have followed trout streams ever

many years the cause of the apparent

placed the grasshopper carefully on

Curious Instances have been cited
where mnkeslilft substitute for the
conventional wedding ring have been
utilised during the marriage ceremony.
One such Instance occurred some time
ago In a nearby town, where the ring
was missing. Nothing better being
available as n substitute, a curtain
ring was used, and on still another oc
casion the ring handle of the church
key was utilized. A couple in this stnte
used In such an emergency a ring
formed from the outer edge of a coin
and which had been carried by some
one present as a curiosity.
A gitlhint best liinn came to tho res

was not forthcoming at tho right time.
