A STOVE SToLEN.-We have often
heard it said that among people who
would borrow other peoples property
without leave, that few could be found
who would take a town lot or a red hot

charged with stealing a stove. If moi
ouite red hot, il had s fire 10 it. So Con
stable Garvy states. 1t appears that the
woman lives up in Pinch, and reveals the
future for a livelihood, for which she was
called to answer before Mr.. Justice
Creighton, who heard a portion Of the
evidence and continued the further hear
ing of the case till tomorrow.
