WESTMINSTR.

A SERIOUS " PROFESSIONAL" Loss.--A young
woman, giving the name of Eliza Smith, was
charged with felony.
Isaiah James Longstreet, who described himself
as a gymnastic performer, stated that he was ful-
filling an engagement at the Standard Music Hall,
Pimlico, last night. After he had finished his per-
formance he came down stairs with a bag containing
his professional wardrobe, and placed it on a barrel
in front of the bar, while he spoke to Mr. Brown,
the landlord, behind the bar. When he had done so
and turned round he found that the bag containing
the bundle was gone.
Mr. Selfe—What time was it ?

Prosecutor—lt was very late. I had not finished
in the room until half -past 11, and then I had to dress.
Mine was the last perform wee of the evening.
Mr. Sulk—They keep the best to the last, I sup-
pose. What was there in the bag?
Prosecutor—All my professional costume, tights,
slippers, paint, a belt, prepared chalk, and every
thing for the use of the business.
Two or three witnesses were examined, from
whose evidence it appeared that the prisoner was
at the bar of the Standard last night, and shortly
afterwards was traced home with the bag.
She was committed for six weeks.
