Yesterday afternoon officers Pcrson
and Mcbride, met Barney Lapier and
An old man named Gallagher, at Third
and Harrison streets, with a large bag,
under which one of them was almost
staggering. AS the officers knew they
both belonged in the almshouse, they
stopped them to make them give an ex-
PLANTATION. Officer Pierson made them
turn ont the contents, which he found
consisted Of old rags and pieces OF metal,
while officer Mcbride hurried to the
almshouse to notify the superintendent,
who told him the men had thrown the
bag over the wall, and then went ont
on some pretcx and would no doubt
dispose of the contents for rum. In the
meantime officer Pierson had let them
go, but when officer Mcbride informed
him what Superintendent Barlow had
said, they started after and overlook
them at Second and jefferson streets
The officers made them march back 10
the institution with their plunder, and
turned them over to the charge of the
superintendent. Gallagher has been
boarding at the expense Of the county
for six months, but Lapicr has only
been in the place about one week, and
they showed their ingratitude by trying
to rob the place, that was to them a
home.
