Man and Wife Burglars.

from Waterbury, Conn.,, telegram. 23d.
The arrest Of Bill Davis, of this city, followed
by that of his alleged wife, for completely in a
burglary at the Office of lumber and coal COM
Iany at Derby on Tuesday night. Is leading to
curious developments. The woman Is scarcely
IL years old, attractive In looks, bright and
shrewd. The police are In possession Of evil
dence that she assisted Davis In his schemes for
the ruin OF young girls, she herself having first
been one OF his victims. A girl named Mulca-
hey. OF this city, was led away by him and was
with him In Derby before he undertook the bur-
Elary. The efforts of her parents to discover
her whereabouts led to Davis capture. After
his return here his young wife is believed to
have been In the habit of attending him on his
expeditions, dressed in male attire. The fact
that there were small tracks like womans
about the Bristol post office. which was robbed
OF $500 on Monday night last. has led to the be-
lief that Davis and wife are the guilty parties.
The police believe they have struck q clue to
the recent numerous crimes in this part of the
state in the arrest Of this man Of over so wears

About Cigarette Smoking.

Sir Henry Thompson, the eminent physician,
writes that the greatest harm of cigarette
smoking arises from inhaling the smoke di-
rectly into the lungs, where it comes into i'm
mediate contact with the circulation; and pro-
duces an effect felt by sensitive person to the
tips OF the fingers. He recommends the use of
