A NOTABLE THIEF,

NOTABLE THIEF.
 1 There is thief in Providence Rhode Isl and, unless he is now dead, whose career has
 been peculiarly strange and melancholy one. During the last few months houses by | the score in that city have been entered in broad daylight and rified of whatever valua- bles might be lying around loose About two
 months ago two valuable overcoats and
 costly pair of opera glasses were stolen from
 the office of doctor. Soon after house was
 entered during the day and the thief walked
 into a room where sick person was lying
 in bed. Without being at all abashed or
 frightened. the fellow rummaged the bureau
 drawers, but not finding anything to his mind worth stealing, he quietly took his de- parture The house of minister was the next visited and a valuable watch and other articles of jewelry were taken. A number of robberies of similar nature followed, which were all reported to the police, and in each case the same description was given of the supposed thief He was described as dressed in dark clothes and as very thin and con- sumptive looking. The police worked hard to discover the thief, but could find no clew to him. Finally detective took it into his head to sus- pect one Thomas O'Brien, who was pardoned out of the State prison last winter by the General Assembly on the ground that he was so ill with consumption that his death was daily expected, and it was thought best to let him die at home. The detective made in- quiries in regard to O'Brien, and was told by several persons that he was at his home and unable to leave the house. This information threw the detective of the track for while, but he soon discovered that O'Brien had been seen on the streets, though in a very weak condition. To make long story short, O'Brien was arrested and identified as the thief, and part of the property he stole was recovered. Those to whom he sold it say he would offer what he had for sale and say that he was sick with consumption and was com pelled to sell his jewelry and clothes in order to help pay his expenses.
 O'Brien is about twenty-six years old and more than half his short life has been spent in durance vile. When he was arrested by the detective he was so weak that he was un- able to sit up without support. He informed the one in authority at the station house that every night when he went to bed he hardly expected to see the light of another day, and expressed the hope that he might die while at the station. His condition was so low that the police did not dare lock him up in a cell for fear he would die. and he was therefore taken back home. He was in the last stages of consumption, snd it was thought on Sat urday that he would not live two days. A sadder story is not often told.
