Stealing a Dolrnan.

1t was about 1880 last night when Officer
Walsh brought into the city hall a heavy,
thick-set fellow that he had arrested on
suspicion of stealing dolman and other
articles from some of the girls at house
on Fifth street, below Jackson. On search
ing the fellow they found nothing on his
person but forty cents and few crackers.
The gentleman had evidently prepared
himself for the winter for he had on three
pairs of pants and coats and vests
to match. He stoutly denied
the stealing and the girls were sent for.
Two OF them came up and, without hest
fancy, said he was not the man, and with
glib tongues described the real thief, even
to the color of his mustache. 1t was
suggested that they go inside the lock up
and see If they could point him out among
the dodgers, and SO they went in. On the
floor lying in all sorts: of shapes were about
twenty men. AS one of these fellows lifted
up his head to see what was going on,
both girls stuck out their hands at him
and positively declared that he was the
man. He was routed out, stood upon his
feet, when he was very thoroughly identi-
fed. The location of the little fellow was
changed, and he was ordered to be locked
up. AS he went to his dungeon cell he
wished that he had not lifted up his
head

GERMANY.

BERLIN, Dec. 13,-Merchants have called
a conference of all the German chambers
of commerce for the purpose of organic

of BOurse transactions.
Suicides are alarmingly frequent in the
Prussian army. Recently cadet shot
himself at Richterfelde, lieutenant killed
himself at ball at Spandan, and another
officer died by his own hand in Paris
Deaths by dueling are also frequent.
In the reichstag the imperial minister OF
the interior, in reply to question by
Windthorst, ultra-montane leader, said the
bundesrath had decided not to give effect to
the decision of the reichstag in favor OF
the abolition of the law upon the unau-
thorized exercise of ecclesiastical func-
tions. The government could not explain
the reasons for the refusal. They declined
on principle to give the reichstag reason.
for their decisions.
In the discussion of the socialist laws,
Valloner, socialist, moved that the reasons
for prolenging the minor state of siege
were insufficient. He expressed sympathy
for the nihilists and stated that 13, 900 pub
locations were circulated in Berlin weekly
by the socialist press, although as many, il
is boosted, have been confiscated in three
months.

The Brooches Movement.

Accepting knee-breeches as the es-
thetic clothes, several persons have
written in their favor that they will
avoid the bagginess to which trousers
are subject at the knees from the devo-
tional posture and from the habit of
sitting with one leg resting on the other.
Not to discourage this movement, but
to prevent disappointment in worthy
effort, it should be mentioned that
this idea OF the exemption of
knee-breeches from being kneed is
a radical error. for that their be
ing fastened just below the knee.
and the tightness which BELTS this gar
ment, allow no slack for the bending of
the knee; therefore would knee breaches
be kneed more than trousers. That
shorter form of breeches which does not
come to the knee would be requisite to
avoid this bagginess. Yet the tights
worn under these would bag. The
esthetic clothes are not free from diff
Guilty, but no one should be discouraged.
The cause is worthy Of q great effort,
and OF great sacrifice If necessary. Let
every aspiring esthetic say with Harry

sultation with France. Referring to
the attitude of France toward Madagas-
car Lord Derby said, if amicable media
