HEARTLEss LARCENY.-Not long since a
peddler of spectacles called at certain house
in this city for the purpose of selling his wares
The woman of the house had no ready money
to invest in optical aids, but she desired pair
of the spectacles exceedingly. The pedler ex-
pressed his willingness to exchange the desired
articles for any property of equal value which
the woman possessed After hunting the house
over she produced silver cofin-plate. bearing
the name and age of her deceased husband.
The plate was bartered for the spectacles, but
before the exchange took place she left the
room for a moment When she returned the
heartless vender of spectacles had disappeared
with the coffin plate, emitting to leave its
equivalent. The grief and despair of the al
most broken hearted woman at thus losing the
dearly priced and funeral memento of her dead
lord and master cannot be described in words.
Language is too feeble to express it. The police
were put upon the track of the fe lingless
scoundrel, and the precious article recovered.
