A Cool WAY of stealing mans horse was
demonstrated last night Four men, only
known by their dusly forms moving through
the darkness, entered the yard of a German
carter named Curran, and, taking his horse
and were driving out of the gate, when Curran
opened the window, and, peering out, said, II
believe there goes my horse and wagon,
whereat the whip cracked and the thieving
party drove of, and have not since been heard
from. 1t Is sufficient to say that Mr.. Curran
learned soon that it was his horse and wagon
which had been stolen.

The PURLIBUs OF VICE AND FILTH.- Last
night Lieutenant Frank, Sergeant Murray, and
a squad of the Seventh District police, made a
descent upon disorderly tenement house, No.
423 st. Johns street. This shabby old structure,
which in former years was considered a spacious
"dance house." presented a battered exterior,
with filth abundant on all sides Without was
paradise to the Babel within, since eight fami-
lies, with a superabundance of dirty, half
clothed, squalid looking children, resided there.
Internally the house was strictly virtuous of
cleanliness, as the black doors, unswept stairs,
dirty floors, strongly to the vision and yet more
strongly to the susceptible olfactories of the
observer, testified. Add to this decidedly un-
clean looking house a jabbering OF voices, tn g
shoutlng commands OF the oId, ana the squat
curses-a common language and you have
somewhat of an earthly pandemonium. To
this place of ill-repute, and habitat for many
vicious and disreputable people, the police pro-
eeeded to try and effect If need be- forcible re-
form. This was necessary, and fifteen inmates,
among which number were many young girls,
were arrested and sent to the lookup. Alder
man Toland sent many of them for a. summer
sojourn in the prison wards.

A GIRL ATTACKED BY A RACCoON.-A few
days since girl about ten years of age, named
Crusen, residing in Grosbeckville, N. Y, while
out berrying about ten miles from the city,
was attacked by raccoon and pretty seriously
injured. The girl was engaged picking berries
under tree which the raccOon assembled.
While she was thus engaged the animal de-
scended the tree and made an attack upon her,
seizing her by tAe leg, and biting large piece
Of flesh from the limb. He would doubtless
have killed the girl but for the fact that her
screams attracted the attention of some women
who accompanied her, one of whom seized a
stick, with which she succeeded in driving the
raccoon away, after striking 1t several blows.
Strange as it may appear, the raccoon followed
the girl about three miles, and then returned
70 the woods.
