MEAN TnIEF.-Necessarily all thieves
are mean. but the rascal who stole cube
Of meat from the grocery of David
Schwartz. corner OF Spain and Gireaud
streets. is little meaner than bis craft
generally is. The proprietor detected the
fellow. and followed hot after him: but.
seeing he could not Overtake him, sent a
couple of complimentary bullets. This in
vitat:on to halt and be sent to prison was
not appreciated by the robber, fo- he
turned and fired at the man he had
wronsed. and then stepped out for parts
unknown. He will never enjoy that stolen
meat for it will prove indigestihle. if there
Is anything in the law Of coMpensations.

WHO LOST PART OF A FISGER!-Eariy
yesterday morning patrolman discovered
drops OF blood on the banquette near pub
lie market in the Fourth District. and on
tracing up the gore discovered the end OF
human finger. Not understanding such
things, he forwarded the bit of flesh to
police headquarters, where all sorts Of
speculations were INDUCED in. The only
conclusion arrived at was that fight had
occurred during the night, and the man
who bites did not like to keep the piece, so
left it where itIwas found. Any man with
a wounded hand will now become an object
Of interest.
