The notorious young mulattO thief and
vagabond, Jim Jackson, IL at last check
Ell for the pehitentiary. While purchas-
ing o pair ofshoes In the store Of Barney
McManus this morning, he secreted un-
der his coat one Of the finest hats kept in
the establishment. Joe Arnold shortly
afterwards detected the young man, at q
full run on the streets, q portion Of the
hat protruding frsm beneath the cover
Of his coat This looked suspicious TO
Joe, and he commanded James to halt.
A. James was not in the hating mood
Joe put after him, and for a few minutes
there was q lively foot race. As the
young rascal was in the act Of boarding
. passing train, Joe grabbed him by the
leg, and held on while the train ran the
length of block or two, and then with
sudden lurch, detached his hold and
brought him TO the ground.
II required a great deal Of shrewd en-.
cheering to get clue to the fellows
guilt, but Joe finally "wormed" enough
out Of him to satisfy himself that the hat
had been stolen. He finally conveyed
his prisoner to McManus store, In the
vicinity OF which the chase took place,
and there obtained conclusive evidence
Of the young villains guilt. As he will
enter his second appearance for then, be-
fore the circuit court next Monday, he is
certain Of trip TO and two or three
years. residence in the city Of Joliet.

As the down passenger train was near.
ing st. Johns, about ten o'clock, last
night the engine knocked some object
nom the edge Of the track, which rs the
train sped by was discovered to be .
human being. Conductor Cormick
had the train back up that the matter
might be investigated, and discovered
the dead body OF woman. She was
neither torn nor badly bruised, death
being caused. probably, by the breaking
ofths spinal column. There was nothing
about the woman 20 indicate her name
or place Of residence. She was dressed
in dark calico dress, and, sitting on the
end OF the tie, was mistaken at first for
n cluster OF weeds. Cormick left par
ties In charge of the body, with directions
10 convey it to St. Johns, that the proper
inquiry might be Instituted. She had,
most evidently, seated herself on the end
Of the tie, and fallen asleep.
