day night week MIR. ISAAC JACOBS dry goods and
grocery store, ut Mount Pleasant was broken into
ana from seven to eight hundred dollars worth OF
ory gooas and clothing carried of. The case was
reported TO Lieutenant HENDRICKS on Wednesday
nnd Detectives FARRELL and CALDWELL, were
charged with the investigation of the case. These
two experienced officers used tho utmost dlipence
and at last succeeded in forretting out the entity
parties, and arrested them-tour negroes. two man
and two women, who, it appears wore in the store
that evening, and engaged Mr.. J. in conversation:
small boy meanwhile hiding himself under tho
counter unobservcd. After tho storekeepor had
Fetifea TO bed this house being about five hundred
YARDS from the STOREY, this boy opened tho store.
Tho parties confessed thor guilt. md wero cfn-
mltted for trial at the Court of Sessions.
This should bo warning to our ctizens generally.
100 much caution cannot bo used at this time when
the whole country swarms with vagrants, great and
small. It would DO well for all TO examine tbo;r
premises every evening before shutting I'D. and
see that no unbdden guest enjoys tho hospitalitv
Of the house.
tt Is fortunate for our own city, and indeed as |
ID proved by this case, for tho surrounding conn
TRY, that we possess vol organized detective
torce under such 8 perscvering and keen chief ns
Lieut.. HENDRICKS. The department as n whole |
Ind tho hoad Of it in particular are dread to nil
'vil-doers, and there can bo no doubt TINT Jieut
and his efficient assistants have contr
outed moro than any other body of men Of the
same size to the present poace and quiet of the
