JOHN CONFERENCE.-The young man
who responds to this name has not been a
free bird many days, as he but recently
emerged from the Penitentiary, where he
had been sojOurning because he inadvert-
antly took several articles from old Odd
Fellows Hall. Some one claimed the
things, and consequently John found steady
employment in Baton Rouge. No sooner
outsthan he began his old tricks, diving in
boldly by stealing horse and buggy from
stable in Carrollton, the property of Mr..
Rogers, keeper of a livery stable. He is
also charged with stealing a whip. Re
corder Houghton fixed his bonds at $1,000 to
appear on the twenty ninth.
A BIGAMY MAN.-The first love and
matrimonial, mate of William Cross signs
her X to statement that the sweet Will
liam, although lawfully married to her long
ago, recently took unto himself one Julia
Shelley, whom he married in st. Patricks
Church, we'll knowing that he was the hus-
band of one woman already. This MONS
trous charge has incarcerated the Cross; he
failed to give bonds in fifteen hundred dol
lars.

to deal with one of their members who
would not down at first or second bidding.
He is something of second-ha preacher,
out of employment. To molly him the
club passed a resolution instructing the
Board of Police Commissioners to give
him a situation on the mounted police, one
reason being that he is very lame, there
fore unfit for patrol duty. How this queer
affair will end, remains to be seen, but the
resolution is down in black and white, and
possibly carries an immense force with it,
though few interested will see it.
A Costly GARMENT.-One night lately
the yound woman, who laughingly calls her
self MinHehaha, but called Alexander by
plain folks, was airing herself in a cab, for
pleasure and business. Having finished
her trip, she dismissed the vehicle at her
Union street door, forgetting to take with
her rich velvet laced cloak, said to have
cost four hundred greenback dollars. On
the morning following, her head remem-
bered her torgetfulness, and she attempted
to regain possession of the costly garment,
bue being poor detective. she failed to re-
cover the cloak, when she called on Captain
Schneider and special officer Sinclair. They
were not long in finding the article, and
yesterday made Minnehaha laugh right
merrily, by placing it in her lilly white
hands No arrests were made, as the cul-
prits took the trouble to suddedly depart.
