Observation-Disclosures BURGLARS CAUGHT
IN THE Acr.-For some time past Mr.. Mar
tin, our Marshal, has had his eye on several
gents but lately arrived in the city, and
whom he suspicioned as being ono better
than they oughtto be-" Without mentioning
his suspicious to any one, he watched them
day and night in so quiet and unobtrusive
manner as not to alarm them in the least.
From their movements he concluded they
were burglars and designed breaking into
some of the stores on Main street. He i'm
mediately notified some Of the merchants of
his suspicious and advised them to be on
their guard and not to be alarmed in case
their establishments were interrupted. The
Marshal finally overheard them laying their
plans to break into the store of Mr.. Duncan,
on Main street, on Sunday night. He in
formed Mr. Duncan of what he had heard
and advised him to be on the lookout. He
then procured the assistance of Constable
Long, and Policemen Davis and Miller.
These he stationed at convenient points to
the store where they might see without
being seen. About o'clock in the morn
ing, three men were discovered by the
watchers to approach the store-room. One
of them applied an "outsider," to the key,
threw the bolt and walked in, accompanied
by one companion, while the other remained
on the outside as n sentinel. On entering
the store the burglars made for the safe
After an examination, one of them remarked
that it ould be devilish hard to open. He
then stepped to the door and called the
one outside to come and help
them turn it over. When The
sentinel went in to helpIwith the safe, the
policemen closed in on the door. Just as
they arrived at the door James White, one
OF the burglars, was coming out. The
Marshal Immediately seized him and des-
perate struggle ensued Chester Q. Davis
also promptly f'pitched in" and aimed a
heavy blow at White, but missing him it
fell on Martins arm, almost disabling it.
White ierked away from Martin and sue
ceeded in getting to the middle of the street
with Davis chnging to his back. The fell
low was finally overpowered, secured, and
taken back into the store. On search being
made for the other burglars they were found
secreted under the counter on top of some
boxes, their tools lying but a short dis
tance from them.
Yesterday the three, who gave theii
names as James White, James Ewing, and
Charles Burdell, were taken before Recorder
Mcbride for examination. On hearing the
testimony he held them in the sum of ST.
500 each for appearance at Court. Failing to
obtain the necessary security they were
sent to jail. They stated that they recent
ly came from Cairo, and were very gentle
manly in their appearance.
The marshal and police certainly deserve
much credit for their tact and courage in
detecting and arresting the thieves. 1t re-
quired patience and skill as detective to fol
low the fellows and catch them in the very
act of committing the crime of which they
were suspected.

A MEXICAN MARKET PLACE-The male and
female Indians squat on the ground near their
fruit and vegetables, which are placed in lay
ers on a mat, and cry their wares most dis
cordantly. "Atole " and tortillas - (boiled
maize and maize bread) are offered by the In
dian women, who fail not with their soft voices
to announce their merits Round them are
assembled the muleteer, clad wholly in leather,
the soldier from the neighboring barracks, and
the laborer, all of the mestins class, to take
their breakfast. Here roasted wild ducks are
lauded, there ragout of pork with Spanish
pepper, while the Indian praises his pulque, or
we are invited to drink lemonade, CHA water,
and other refreshments in colored glasses, at a
table prettily ornamented with flowers. Here
we find the sunburnt ranchero, the peasant and
herdsman with his wife and daughter, or per-
haps his sweetheart be spurred whip in
his hand, and the snowy "sarape" picturesque
ly flung over his shoulder like the togo; she
with broad brimmed felt hat, or with blue
handkerchief round her head to keep off the
sun. A brown, barefooted fellow has tray
before him on which are little wax figures re-
presenting popular subjects, while another Of

corner with rope and porter's knot, offering
their services as porters they also officiaie as

number is increased by peripatetic cobblers,
cock fighters, conjurors, and above all by the
honorable guild of cheats, swindlers and pick
pockets.
