Mrs. Emma X. Davis, resident Of West
Chester, was walking along Lombard
street, in the vicinity Of Seventh, ,she was
approached by young man who, after

q valuable gold watch and locket which
she carried, and ran down Seventh
street. She imm sdiately cried for assist
ance, and a number of people gave pur-
suit, crying "stop thief" The latter
attracted the attention of Officer Kernon,
of the Nineteenth Police District, who,
observing the fleeing man, also joined
in the pursuit and succeeded In taking
him into custody at Seventh and st.
Mary streets, the stolen jewelry being
found in his posses sion. At 10 o'clock

AN UNGATHERED HARVEST. Now,
when the sHmac is coloriDg the Gulf of
Mexico with its rich crimson, is the time
to draw the attention OF agriculturists to
the scheme of the Agricultural Bureau
for making 1t source of real profit TO
the country. The leaves of the sumac
are used, as our readers know, for pur.
poses of tanning, and the varieties spon-
taneolsly produced in the United States,
while not so valuable for this use as the
Slcillan, are hardy and bear the changes
OF our climate. IL has hitherto proved
impossible 10 acclimate either Sicilian,
French or Spanish sumac In this
country. The importation of foreign
sumac averages 5000 tons annually,
outside OF an immense amount SNUG.
ged into the country; the imported ar
ticle being worth $50 per ton more than
The native. Our wild sumac imparts a
yellow tinge to the leather, and fails to
give 1t the snowy delicacy TO which the
tannic acid obtained from the Sicilian
bleaches 1t. DIR. MacMurtie, who has
published an official report on this
matter, states that this difficulty can be
obyiated by gathering the sumac lraves
In June II they are required for tanDing
white or very light leather; the tannin
then present being smaller in quantity,
but of purer quality, and the value of the
ground leaves being equal to the Slcilian.
"There is no reason" says the De-
partment very justly, "why the 81, 000,-
ooO In gold paid yearly for foreign sumac
should not be kept at:home." The plant
grows like weed on every stretch Of
poor ground OF mountain range, and 1t
requires but little culture and skill In
harvesting to add 1t to our profitable
lesser crops. 1t requires to be kept free
from weeds; the crop should be gathered
lne year after planting, by breaking of
Gil the leaves; after that year In Sicily
The tree is either stripped Of all leaf bear.
