guilty on Saturday in the Court Of Sessions
to charge OF grand larceny and burglary.
She was sent back to Raymond street jail,

pleted the regular business Of the court,
Daniel Shugru, the young Connecticut
farmer, who month ago came to the city
to look for wife, and selected the girl
burglar as the most desirable, approached
the bench and requested Judge Moore to
give him a hearing.

You can't know what you are about,
replied Judge Moore. II will not do any
thing for you in that direction. If you
nave any regard for your future welfare and
happiness, would advise you to give up this
idea. The girl has been twice in the Peni-
lentiary already and is sure to go there
again. 1t may be different with Counecti-

Disappointed.
Shugru turned away evidently much dis
appointed. Undismsyed, however, by the
cold water thrown on his matrimonial pur
poses by the Judge, he hurried to Raymond
street Jail and paid his respects to the girl
burglar. The meeting was very affecting
one, and the Connecticut youth renewed
his protestations of devotion, and assured
Ella that he would make her his wife after
she had served out her term, which he un-
derstood would be two years. Ella prom
ised TO be true to him, and that in future
she would give up her thieving ways.
Shugru gave her $40 bill and also sent
her some delicacies He returned to Con-
nectieut last night with heavy heart. He
