AGAIN IN L1MBo-Pete Munday, the
famous individual whose 'smug" ornaments
the rogue's gallery, and whose light fingered
feats have made him the terror of people
with valuables, was picked up at. the race
track yesterday. Two months ago Pete was
arraigned as q dangerous and suspicious
character before the Police Board and gave
bonds to leave the city for the city's good.
Alas for bonds and promises, he was found
wanting, and in the gentle hands Of two po-
icemen was escorted to the Canal street
cars and carried into town. Pete was ar
rested by Captain Malone and Officer Smith,
Of the detective force, and broke and run
from them, but was not too fleet to make his
escape When the car reached the corner
Of Carondelet street, Pete broke out and
ran again, but he was caught and over
powered. Caught after the second attempt
to escape, he was held too closely to repeat
the experiment, and was safely locked up
at the Lafayette square station. The charges
against Pete this time are carrying bran
new end thoroughly loaded revolver and
being vagrant.
The steiner Gas Machine.
We feel that the company VIII ich has re-
Gently bought the patent right for this re-
markable machine is to be congratulated
on their purchase. We have seen nothing
better adapted for Illuminating purposes and
it seems to US it must come into very gem
eral use. As there are a good many such
machines just now, it may not be uninter-
eeting to state some OF the peculiar advan-
tages of the Steiner:
First, the machine itself is not expensive,
and gas can be manufactured at about one
dollar per thousand feet. The light is very
white and brilliant, yet soft and steady.
No heat nor chemicals of any kind are
used. The machine is so simple that any
one can give it all the attention it requires.
1t makes no noise, emits no unpleasant
smell, occupies but little space, and is
rather an ornament in the room. 1t uses
every drop of the oil, and burns during the
coolest weather without any further atten
ton than that which is required in the sum-
mer time.
Indeed. after a careful examination, we
could find no Objectionable feature in the
machine. There is. however, machine in
full operation at No. 80 Carondelet street,
in the real estate Office of Mr.. N. H.
Thomas. and let those who are interested go
and judge for themselves.
The gentlemen composing the Board of
Directors are too well known to require
any introduction from us. Among them we
notice the names Of Carl Kohn, Louis
Schneider, G. T. Beauregard, Jules Cassard.
Mr.: Kohn is the president Of the company,
and we are informed that arrangements to
manufacture upon large scale are being
made, in order to meet the demand for
machines.
There is a small portion of the stock still
open for subscription at the office of the
company, No. ITO Gravier street, where
Mr.. Guthrie, the secretary, will give all the
information required.
