STOLEN SILK.
FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS WORTH TAX
EN- FROM KENNARD o co. q STORE.

'
EN FROM KENNARD co. q STORE.
The dry goods store of VIM. M.
Kennard q Co., No. 621 Market street
was entered by thieves, at an early
hour this morning, and robbed Of
about five hundred dollars worth of
good black silks. The robbery was
accomplished in a very deft manner.
SO neatly, in fact, that the presence OF
burglars in the store was no. even sus-
pected until the robbery was accom-
plished and the goods removed. The
silks were on the shelves at the rear
end OF the long counter, and the beams
OF lighted gas burner shone directly
upon them, making their position Wis
ibie to any one passing along the street
and causually glancing through the
glass front doors Notwithstandin.
this publicity the gang-for there must
have been three or four engaged in the
work-entered the store and walked
of with their valuable booty unde-
tected.
The robbery must have been per-
formed very quickly, as special officer
Richard Heritage, who patrols Market
street through the night, says he tried
the door as he went down the street.
about ten minutes past two o'clock,
and found it all right. When he re.
turned, about twenty-five minutes of
three, he found the store door wide
open. This, Of course, convinced him
that something was wrong, and going
into the store, he aroused the two
clerks who sleep over the store, Edw.
Brown and Andrew Winkleman.-
They came down, and were not long
in learning the extent of the robbery.
The silks were gone, but nothing else
in the store had been touched.
The burglars effected an entrance
through the front door, which they
neatly pried open with jimmy, ap-
parently without much trouble and
with little noise. Marks on the Ship
ley street door showed that attempt
had been made to force it open, but
were abandoned.
Suspicion of this robbery is natural
ly directed TO the Water street crowd
of roughs and swindlers known as
'Slim Jim and his gang" They are
suspected on general principles, and
from the fact that "Slim Jim" was in
the store a few days ago, examining
some samples of silk, Ostensibly with
view to making purchase, but real
ly there is no doubt, for the purpose
of examining the location of the best
silks, with a view to making haul.
The Mayor has offered reward OF
$500 for the arrest and conviction OF
the burglars.
AN UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT.
The door of James & Webb's print.
ing and stationery store, No. 224 Mar.
ket street, showed the marks of q
jimmy, this morning, as though an at
tempt had been made to force it open
during the night. The job was doubt
less started but something happened
60 scare the burglars off.
HUNTING FOR THE rHIsvEs.
During this morning, the police
started active measures for the cap
ture of the burglars and sent word to
all the stations on the different railroad
lines centering in this city. "Slim
Jim" was searched for but it was
learned that he had left town, in com.
pany with a couple of strangers who
had been sojourning at "Chick" Foy's
Water street "Club" saloon for the
past three days.

The department, during this year, is
encumbered with several extraordinar,
expenditures, which are not likely TO be
incurred hereafter. These expenses are
the Items for the new wheel, new pump,
and new city building, and if they were
deducted, 1t wonld show a surplus, OF
about 81 900, Of the revenues over the
expenses. II is thus apparent that If no
further expense beyond the usual appro
priation is Incurred, the department will
soon begin to pay quite hands mely,
and in sufficient amount to enable thu
setting apart Of portion of each years
earnings for the purpose Of extension
and improvement.
For the above reasons, and In view of
the fact that the water facilities of the
city are sufficiently ample for the next
eight or ten years, many people think IL
would be lInwise for the city to incur an
expense OF $4,000 In purchasing the
now unusued Brandywine water tights,
as proposed by the Water Committee
Of City Council.

Con gresS.

Since 1874 our national Legislature
has taken up on itself all the possible
sh, dss of color, so far rs political ma.
joriti's go.
At the time of the great democratic
tidal wave in 1874, the Republicans
held both housed by large majorlties,
which the election Of that year re-
vsr.ed in the House and the country
was governed by a republican Senate
and democratic House from Dec. 1878
until Dec. 1877, when tho Senate
went into accord with the House.
This state of affairs continued until
our recent election, VIXEN the repub.
licans regsined control of the House
and the Congress that will organize
in Dec. 1881, will be the reverse OF
that of 1877; democratic Senate and
republican House. All the changes
have been rung; the people have made
a perfect hash Of Congress for the
last six years, and at no time, have
they had the legislative and executive
branches in political accord. Some
}ancful theorists have been able to
satisfy themselves, that such a state
of affairs is advantageous, and that
the country should be better governed
when one house may check the other
or both check or be checked by the
Executive. That sounds well, but it
assumes, that it is the first disposition
Of our legislators to run into excuses
which is not the presumption, when
the people elect them; it assumes fur
ther, that each political party honest
" enieavors to keep the other party
in tho right track, when it has come
to be notorious, that the converse Of
that proposition i. true.
To argue from the acts of the 44th
Congress, it would not be overdrswino
it to assert, that, had it been possible
for either House, to have originated
an absolutely perfect law, on either
finance, or the trouo!ous presidential
election question, the other one would
have antagonzed them. That there
are only certain issues that are poI't
ical. would asem to be the case, mas
much ns member, "pair' on political
questions only. but We have had oc,
casion to remark one fact, that those
political questions consume more time
ars greater in number, obtain more
attention and are the occasion Of more
sublime eloquence, than are those
which are considered non.political.
In views of such facts, we are not
ready to believe, that 1t IS best tor he
country to have our governmental
right hand in ignorance of what the
loft does, or that it should be possible
for our law makers in one branch, to
defeat beneficial legislation in the 9TH
er. simply because they are not IN
political accord, and neither disposed
to give the other the benefit Of the
influence Of wise act, on the people.
