AN EPISODE OF JUVENILE CRIME.

A CURIOUS WAY TO GET wHIsKEY-A MYSTERY
OF MANY MONTHS SOLVED AT LAST.
For many months back the firm of Lufberry 4 Ayers,
merchants of Railway, N j., have been sorey puzzled
to find out who the perpetrator OF several robber
les made at their establishment Sometimes the dep
rotations would be made two three times week, and
at other times two or three weeks would elapse
Amounts varying from $50 to $40 would be taken, but
the more frequent practice the purloning of only
a few dollars at a time. The money was taken from
the cash drawer in the counting room and the drawer
itself was apparently not opened unlocked, and
violence was used in gaining admission to the prem
ises The utmost vigilance was taken, watch
men placed in the building at all
hours, but everything failed to detect the
thief Soon the money stolen began to amount to
thousands OF dollars. The robberes continued and the
manner of their preparation became more mysterious
as time wore on. 1t ascertaned that the thefts
were committed every time soon after the establish
ment was closed in the evening The money drawer
was never emptied, small amount being always left
behind. Whether the thief ghost, hobgoblin or
fairy, was conundrum. AT last the mystery was re-
the door was locked. At dusk a soft tread heard;
a childish form was seen to slip key into the lock;
entered and closed the door carefully and glided
proved TO bel had an empty whiskey bottle
in her hand, which she placed under
her arm and then passed her little tiny hand under the
back the desk up behind and the end Of the
cash drawer Thus she reached its almost entire
tents mans hand could not have done the work,
close did the drawer it, She withdrew portion of re
money and the watcher stepped from his place and
rested her. She taken TO the police station and
identified Lette Donohue, little daughter OF work
man employed in the establishment Her mother drinks
whiskey and whenever a supply of this article was
needed the foregoing means adopted TO obtain IT,
And thus the mystery was solved which for many
months nearly puzzled the wits Of Messrs Lufberry
and Ayres, of that Sleepy Hollow, Railway.

Virginia on Louisiana.

A late number of the Richmond
Enquirer has full account Of the
present condition of the several
Southern States. The following it
gets of as its impression of existing
affairs in Louisiana:
Crossing over into Louisiana we
found the serpent Of Radicalism
scotched, not killed. It's rule, though
less pronounced than it was few
years ago, is still exceedingly op-
rressive. The mad spirit of negro
domination has invaded the public
schools of New Orleans and threatens
them with utter ruin. Indeed, it is
sad to see how much of the mischief
has been accomplished by Radical
misrule in the once great city of New
Orleans.
Usurpation and peculation have
there been to each other as the dire
full cause of direful effect, and act
ing thus together they have so op-
pressed and impoverished the people
as to leave them all but helpless, and
all but hopeless. The real estate
owner is in New Orleans the most
unfortunate of citizens. His proper
| ty is so unproductive as to render
him unable to pay the taxes, and
over it an memorable decree of con-
| fscation hangs. For many such
there can be no possible chance of
restoration. A weak hope, however,
obtains among those who have sue
cessfully battled against misfortune
that the day of deliverance is at
hand.
They see the tidal wave of conser-
vative reaction sweeping away from
their high places the strong holds Of
opposition, and their wish makes the
belief possible that ere long Louisi-
ana will be redeemed. On this weak
hope they rest. They know that Ne
mesis dogs the heels Of guilt, and are
! convinced that such crimes as have
been perpetrated against them can
not much longer remain unpublished.
From party wrongs they turn with
somewhat of confidence to the high
tribunal of American justice, which
they know, in time; will yindicate
itself.
