HORSE THIEFARREsTKD.
THE STOLEN ANIMAL FOUND IN BAL
TIMORE,


Some weeks ago Mr.. C. W. Rice, farmer
of Loudoun county, Va, who brings his truck
to the Washington market for sale, was
robbed Of horse, which, q few days after
wards Detective Coomes succeeded in recover
ing for him. On last Friday night he made his
usual trip to the market, and before morning
lost a second horse. Knowing how successful
Coomes had been on a previous occasion, he
paid him visit and laid the facts of the case
before him. The detective took the matter in
hand, and, after few days inquiry, traced
the man and animal to Baltimore. Hepaid that
city visit yesterday, and not only recovered
the horse, but was fortunate enough to cap
ture the thief, trying to dispose of him. The
man was Immediately arrested, and gave his
name as John Brooks. He is light mulatto,
and in appearance looks like an Individual that
would be guilty of just such a crime. Later
in the day Detective Coomes returned from
Baltimore with his prisoner, and confined him
at police headquarters, where he is held to
await an examination to-day.

HOW 1T WAS DONE.
LUDICRoUS SCENE IN FRONT OF WILL
IApD,S

LARD'S.
Just when. This is what makes them SO IN
popular. John Kent, of Benning's Bridge,
knows all about It now. He came to town on
load of hay, yesterday, and turned up the
Avenue, completely absorbed in the hustle and
stir which surrounded him on every hand.
What he was thinking of when it happened no
one knows. All we know is, that he was
perched high up on this moving mound OF
timothy and clover when, all of q sudden, he
heard sharp cracking below. The shade
trees and brick houses along the Avenue
jumped quickly over his head. There was a
rustic, violent plunging forward, loud
crash, and he lay buried beneath twenty hun
dred weight of cured grass. A crowd soon
made an excavation, dragging him forth filled
with hay seeds and profanity. Both wheels
had broken, and in the crash the wagon and
two commandments were completely demol-
ished. FL. .....

The annual commencement exercises of the
female department of the immaculate Concep-
ton school took place yesterday morning in
the school-room, corner of Tenth and N streets
northwest. This schools probably one of the
largest in the city, numbering two hundred
and thirty five girls, aud the exercises were
very interesting TO the large gathering OF visi-
tors that had assembled to witness them.
There was also on exhibition several beautiful
specimens of needle work, showing that the
pupils had attained marked proficiency in that
department.
Father Mccarthy seemed most happy In
awarding the premiums, and addressed the
scholars in brief eongratulatory speech. The
premium list was very lengthy, and few schol-
ars escaped recognition in the distribution Of
the prizes. -. ..
