A Passion for ParaSGls.

There is in New York o rich lady who,
II the New York correspondent of the Phil
adelphia Public Record may be believed,
has passion for stealing parasols. This
remarkable lady, it appears, has been mar
ried for some four or five years, but her
husband till the rresent time has never
had the least suspicion of her singular fail
ings Mrs. Smith-to call her forxaon-
venlence sake by wholly impersonal name
had in her large and elegant house a
little b0odoir which she always kept closely
locked. 1t was one of those apartments
which in New York houses are always
called thall bedrooms" When examined
the other day by some detectives the walls
OF this apartment were found decorated
with nearly hundred parasols of all sizes
and varieties from the cheapest to the
most expensive.
There were several richly decorated with
lace, valued at fifty dollars apiece. The
kleptomaniac has been several years form
ing this unique collection; and on one or
two occasions, when detected in the act by
storekeepers, managed to hush up the mat
ter by restitution Or purchase of the stolen
property. She had an odd habit of giving
names to her favorite parasols, selecting
them from poems, novels and plays The
latest addition to the stock-an elegant
white parasol with heavy fringe-was call
ed "Frou-Frou;" others bore labels with
such names as '.Pickwick, 'Little Dorrit,
''Lady of the Lake" ELAINE" "Clara We're
de Vere, "Evangeline, ""Ophelia," '.Rosa-
lind" and the like; and one large speci-
men, bordering on the umbrella species,
bore the gloomy name of Lady Macbeth. "
The husband of the lady in question is un-
decided what course to pursue in this curl
GUS emergency. AS to the fair kleptoman
lac herself, she processes to be overwhel elm
ed with contrition and remorse. The fam
lily will certainly remunerate the spoliated
parasol dealers for their losses, and the
matter will probably be hushed up.

A Mystery Of the East.

From the N. Y. Commercial Advertiser, May 81
1t is only few days since the numerous
officials of the City Hall were thrown into
fever of excitement by the discovery OF
skeleton of woman boxed up in a
narrow space IN one of the dark cell
lars OF that building. The workmen who
had been engaged in cleaning out the ac.
cumulated filth of quarter of a century.
stood back aghast at the spectacle which
hrst met their gaze, wildly recalling the
butche lies of Cole, Probst, Traupmann
and company. But the horror of the poor
Mile slams at the City Hall was as nothing
compared with that of Mr.. Fred. Brisfe 81
a contractor, of No. $50 Sixth street and
his men, upon being conf onted last eve
nlng by the skeleton of man standing
erect between the weather board and the
chimney at No. 265 Rivington street.
MIR. Brissel was tearing down the house
IN question prepararatory to building a new
one, when the skull of the skeleton, grim
and CHASTITY, was suddenly revealed by the
falling away of some plaster. The whole
wall was removed as fast as the fears of the
trembling laborers would permit, and in q
short time 1t was taken out of place in
which It must have reposed for balf GEN.
tury.
The police, on being notified of the case,
hunted up colored woman named Debo-
rah Groomer, who had been a resident of
the room in one of the walls of which the
skeleton was found, for upward of twenty
i've years. She professed entire ignorance
OF Its existence, and showed by her FRIGHT
ened appearance, to be more surprised then
the laborers. She had often heard strange
noises at night about the room, but had
always attributed them to rats and mice.
No fragments of clothing were discovered
around the skeleton, nor could anything be |
found to indicate that body had been put
IN there with the clothing on. All the cir
eumstances point at the affair as murder.
NO medical student would go to the trouble |
Of hiding skeleton IN place where it's
removal would involve almost the tumbling
down of the house.
R1vlngton street was once the abode of a
gang of cut-throats, who used to operate ex-
:enslvely along the East River, and this
act may to some extent account for the
presence of the skeleton.
Coroner Keenan, was notified to hold an
inquest, and he may possibly throw some
lght upon what is at present shrouded in
mystery.
