s,,.u.e Occurrence at pittsburgh.

We notice in the Pittsburgh Republic
of yesterday, an account of a strange
proceeding. 1t says: "Some four weeks
ago lady of the highest standing and
re. pectability, whose name is in our pos
session, but is withheld for prudential
reasons, went east to replenish her
stock of millinery goods, she doing bu-
siness in that line in Allegheny City on
an extensive scale. After making her
purchases she directed them to be box
cd up and mark. to her address. when
she took the train and in due time reach
ed home in safety. A few days after a
messenger from Adams & Co.'S Express
called upon her and stated that box
of goods was in the Office for her,
which she said she would at once call
for. The first messenger had scarce
rome before a second called and an
nonuced that another box bearing her
address was in the office awaiting her
order. Knowing that she had ordered
and boxed but one lot ofgoods, she was
at a loss to understand how the second
conid have been directed to her. : =

10 Termination.

Our respected contemporary of the
Pi.tsburg Post has on several occasions
taken exceptions to some of our items
OIL the ground that they were intended
more for "filling up" than for presenting
facts. But we think it would be diff
cult for a man to write Il "fill-up" item
out of less material than did the Post
Yesterday. 1t has nearly half column
about woman going into a jewelry
store and stealing diamond pin, worth
two hundred dollars. "She was respect
able" he says. And the jeweler finally
promised the woman that her name
should not get into the Pittsburg papers;
and the Post man says he knows her
name, and that he jeweler knows her
name, and no one else knows of her
guilt, and that he did not get his infOr-
nation from the jeweler! We hope she
did not tell him. But we will say no
more about il, or our item will reach
the length of his.

The Address.

AS we stated yesterday, there will he
an address delivered before the Young
Mems Christian Association Of South

lenix, of the Fourth Street NJ. Z. Church.
We learn that the members of our city
Association, and lady friends of the

direct and speedy. We shall expect to

ladies. The address will well repay sll
who go down to hear it, and the young
men of South Wheeling will extend a
hearty welcome to their friends who
may pay them visit.

The Police Court is ''looking up
Yesterday morning eight cases were
disposed of.
James Herriott, for being in a state
of intoxication and assaulting small
boy in front of Falloure's ice cream sa.
loon (knocking the youngster into the
gutter without just cause or provoca.
tiou), was fined twenty dollars and
costs. NIX. I.-3 tEt
John Wilson, whose sands of life are
near run out, was arraigned for indie
cent exposure and intoxication, and was
fined one dollar and costs.
Louis Hester. for sleeping in the Sec
ond Ward market house, was fined one
dollar and costs.
Chris. Kline, for being guilty of an
offence that is too indecent to publish,
was fined ten dollars and costs.
Joseph Ryle, for lounging in the Sec
ond Ward market house, was fined one
dollaran costs r. we
Mollie Mclaughlin, frail and super
ANIMATED woman, was arraigned before
the Police Court yesterday morning
charged with drunkenness and prosti-
tuition. But one witness appeared upon
the stand, aud he was not allowed to
proceed with his testimony, being re-
peatedly interrupted by Mollie, who
proposed to plead her own case. Be-
coming too boisterous and insulting in
her language, the Judge ordered that
she be fined twenty dollars and costs.
As Mollie was about to retire to the
classic cells of the lookup, she made a
raid upon the witness who had appeared
against her, and gave him several heavy
blows on the head, accompanying the
same with language that was not noted
for its refinement. The bird was final
ly Gagged.
John Caps was brought before the
Court, charged with using loud and
abusive language. 1t being a small
matter, Caps was fined one dollar and
costs.
Caroline Caps was arraigned for tell
ing a gentleman, in tender and winning
tones, that he was "trash." This case
was dismissed.

Rsscb;n. The office Che iady az once


Reaching the office the lady at once
recognized box Mol as her property,
on which she promptly paid the charges;
but rs to box No. 2, although properly
directed to her address, she felt suspi-
cious that it was not her property, and
therefore asked that it be opened, and
if the goods were in her line she would
pay the charges and take them away.
After some little delay one Of the chief
men of the establishment arrived and
ordered the box to be opened, when it
was found to contain not millinery
goods, but shavings, chloride of lime,
and the body Of a dead infant, apparent
ly about four months old and little de-
composed. The lady of course refused
to claim the paternity Of the dead infant,
or pay the charges on the box, having
not the remotest idea from whence it
came. THESE ARE FACTS!
