IT Will. Be LOOKED UP.-F. A. Muniot,
the Young man who was go fond Of collect
ing money for Messrs. Lochte & Cordes,
Tchoupitoulas street grocers, and was so
verv fond of keeping the SUM of $l665, in
CURRENCY. and $500, in bank checks, was
before Judge Evans yesterday, the tables
having been turned on him. It must be
remem bered that on the sixth instant he
was intrusted with the aforesaid sums to
deposit in bank, but stated that on the
way q man knocked him down and took all
the wealth. His story was altogether
too crooked, and the detectives would not
take it without many grains OF salt,
which mineral Muniot could not furnish.
He was arrested, and finally. finding
that circumstances were decidedly against
him. made az clean . breast as he could,
scknowledg ing that he and q fellow named
Cooney had prepared the little game, and
that Cooney had really taken all the treas
IRE and decamped with it for parts I'M
known. Accused was placed under appear
ance bonds, but it is believed that his
friends are able and willing to settle the
tlouble by paying at least the amount a.
legged to have been lost. Young men, when
YOU wish to make sudden haul OF curren-
cy by devious and crooked ways, call on
some of the oldest criminals in the Peni-
Tertiary for advise as to how to proceed.
Take The benefit of experience, and pay
for il.

BRIEF MISUNDERSTANDING said it was
9 counterfeit five dollar bill, but a United
States official looked ct thesthing aud de-
clared it good. "Send it to my office to-
morrow and will give small change for
it," the bill was accordingly sent, but the
messenger soon returned still holding that
Chicago fraud, and the face of it was
burned through in three places with the
red hot word counterfeit" across its sur
face. If the dispenser of that deceit wants
his miserable note his note he may call at
our counting room.
John :Donshue last evening found himself
severed from liberty, in tbs first calaboose.
for no other reason than that Mrs. Bohan
broadly asserted it as her firm belief that
he stole cool hundred dollars from her.
Christine Hemard wore away few use.
less hours in the fret police precinct because
Mr.. ]. s. Tnlly is convinced che stole lot
of books and papers from his Office
an Independent declaration that the man
who carried q concealed weapon was self
condemned coward, for which statement he
received square flooring on the banquette
opposite the City Hall, and perhaps he was
right. Taking it for granted he was cor
rect in the main, he may now make per-
sonal application Of his remark, IS he is
now charged with carrying pistol con-
cealed on his person.
George johnson arrived here on a steam
boat. having q emailer fortune than A. T.
Stewart left for somebody to spend; in fact
he possessed the magnificent sum of IS 80.
William Clark is q fellow who il like q
roaring lion, always looking around for
somebody to devour. He took hold of John:
son at the head OF Canal street, and chawed
him up financially, but the victim was not
quite as verdant as he seemed. He made
bee line for Officer Horrigan, and the Metro
politan grabbed Clark, but not the cur
rency. which had mysteriously disappeared.
c. Blomberg is another victim. Having
$l4 in paper money he called on Maude
Devota, whose sublunary domiciie is on
Dauphine street, and Maude stole his last
nickel. She marched to prison, drunk, but
will not surrender picayune.
10 White, sometimes called Buckner, has
q reputation which is not worth keeping, az
it is bad. Officer Holsn dropped him into
the central station, as he would drop let
ter into a postOtfice box. 10 is rated as
dangerous and suspicious.
They made blooming error, did Harry
Shields. Raymond Hawkins, George Bon
John Mitchell when they fought each other
IN Carrollton church Monday evening.
Judge Mccormack will look at them with
eyes severe, and as his beard is of formal
Cut, the accused may expect Shakes
pearean sentence.
Charles Joseph had red flannel valued at
BIO, and Stephen Clobina says accused
stole it from his store, corner Of IRENE and
st. Philip streets. Charles Joseph is in
prison.
About this time Of the year look on. for
Easter eggs.
The central council ofHthe Property
Holders Union met last night at Grune-
valid Hall, with Mr.. A. Mitchell, president,
in the chair. After calling the roll the
council went into executive session.
