STEALING TURKIEs.-A fellow, wish
ing doubtless to provide square meal
for Christmas, went to LowIys eating
saloon, on Water street, last night about
9 o'clock, and stole two turkies and a
dress, and made off. He was not smart
enough to avoid the officers, who cap
tured and lodged him in Jail. The
chances are that he will pass his Christ
mas in Castle Faris, where they don't
issue turkies as regular ration.
