LIVERPOOL BoDY-SSATCHERs.-
The following story is told Of two
Liverpool, England, body-snatchers,
who operated in that city some years
ago.
One dark night in winter they
drove up in a gig to Walton Church
yard for the purpose Of securing a
body which had just been Inferred.
They effected their purpose, and after
attiring the corpse in an overcoat,
with hat upon its head, they placed
it upon the seat of the gig, in an up
right position. This done, they
brought the gig to the door of one OF
the inns situated close to the church,
and left it, to enter the inn for re-
freshments. A man who was pass
ing noticed the figure, apparent heed
less of the cold, and stopped to ex-
anime it. His horror at discovering
that it was a dead body may he
imagined, but it did not prevent him
from at once forming plan for turn
| ing the tables on the resurrectionists.
He hastily transferred the great
coat and hat to his own back and
head, carried the body to the church
yard wall, over which he dropped it.
and then mounted the gig, and seated
himself in the place which the corpse
had occupied In short time the
two young men came out, seated
themselves. one on each side of him,
and drove off 1t was very dark, and
they were probably excited by drink,
so they took little notice of their 81
lent companion, and were evidently
quite unconscious ofthe change which
had been effected. At last one OF
the young men remarked in an un-
easy tone, that the corpse seemed to
be getting warm but his companion
only answered him with a laugh and
one or two mocking words. In a few
minutes he reiterated the statement,
pulled the rein, and declared that he
would not stay in the gig any longer
The moment had arrived. The sup
posed corpse turned its head first to
one side and then to the other, and
solemnly spoke. With a cry Of ter
ror the two men leaped from the We
hicle, and ran as though all the
ghosts in Hades we've behind them.
| Lett now to his own devices, the
adventurous man drove home, con
graduating himself on good night
work. The horse and gig were never
claimed.

Loves Labor Lost.

A few evenings ago quite q large
crowd was assembled at the depot OF
the Southeastern Railroad, in East
St. Louis, awaiting the departure OF
the train. The snow WIS falling fast,
and those who remained outside OF
the waiting-room crept close to the
walls of the building. to escape the
falling snow. Standing in very close
proximity, in one corner, might have
been seen a man and woman locked
in each others embrace, and so oc-
cupied with bestowing caresses upon
each other as to be utterly uncon-
scious for time of what took place
around them. At length they dis
covered that they were watched.
While they had been making each
other so happy, "the old man, as the
woman afterwards called him, had
been watching them from behind a
pile of freight near by, and, under
cover OF the darkness, had crept so
close as to be able distinguish what
they were talking about.
Seeing that he had been discover

policemen. who stood a little way off,

watching.
The officers hesitated. They didn't
like to arrest man on their own re-
possibility when they could see no
reason for it.
