AN IMpUDENT THIEF Mrs. Desmond, who
lives on Pitt street, near Queen, upon entering
her house through the back door yesterday
saw colored man standing at the front door
with u bundle under his arm. Approaching
him he said that her SOU had sent the bundle
there and that she was to pay Sl.d0 for it
She told him she had not that much money in
the house. He thensaskei how much she had,
and upon being told I6 cents he expressed his
willingness to take that and call for the remain
der. Suspecting from his behavior that some
thing was wrong she caught hold of the bun
die aud by telling him to come IN and she could
probably find money enough, induced him to
follow her into the house when she discovered
that the bundle was carpet that she had tax
en- up that morning and put behind door. AS
soon as the thief found out that he was detect
ed he ran off and has not since been heard
from.
