liciOus Mischief.

On last Friday evening, while a com
pany OF neighSprs and friends were as
sembled at Mn Mackie's, on Fifteenth
street, some peaSn threw a brick against
the front door. When the door was
opened there WIS 20 one in sight, but
the brick lay on the;. steps. Mr.. George
Fisher, who was one Of the number at
Mr.. Mackie's, shortly after went home
where he ascerta,ned that some one had
been ringing the door bell. but when the
seryent went to the door no one was to
be seen. This nelghborhood has been
the scene of numerous petty thefts and
outrages OF late, and the residents are De-
coming alarmed and watchtul, :and
some of these fine nights some yillinous
thief will come to grief.

enterprise was this: A space OF about

side OF the room was covered with fancy
photographs OF the ordinary size. Be
hind the photographs was a slip OF white
paper aud on say one in twenty of these
slips was marked either the figures one.

fifty cents each, the purchaser taking his
choice. 1t on removing the picture
either OF the figures above named were
exposed the party buying the picture
was entitled to the amount designated
in money, whether one, five or ten dol
lars. OF course the pictures were worth
less, and no one would be fool enough
to pay fifty cents for one of them if there
was not chance of getting a money
prize with it. The party buying the pic
ture stood only one chance In about

anything more than the picture. Sheriff
