IN LAIL FOE BUReLARY.

A Negro Thief Makes Way with Lot of
Jewelry and Case of Surgical Instru-
Inents.
Among the prisoners conn in the
Jail is a negro about l. years O. age named
John Houston, committed lT Justice
Sheuall, of the Eighth district, on az war
rant sued out by DR.. L. +. Sheftall,
charging him with burglary.
About two weeks ago Houston went to
Dr.. Sheftall with letter of recommended
ton and obtained work. He was in the
service Of his new employer about five
DAYS, when, il seems, he began
to Law his plans 10 secure differ
ent articles Of jewelry and other
property. Among other things he is ac-
cused OF having stolen couple Of Yalu-
able breastpins. Il pocket pistol and
number OF surgical instruments valued
at about $3.50. Suspicion that some one
hal entered the doctors residence was
aroused on Feb. - when the family re-
turned home about dark and found that
rear window in the second story
was omen, and that the curtain
had been torn by the thief
either in entering or leaving the apart
ment. None OF the goods afterwards
found where the negro pointed them out
were missed at that time. although they
had in fact been moved and hidden away.
Hence the family concluded that the
windows had been unintentiOnally left
open. and that they had been mistaken as
10 its having been closed. a day or two
after a gentleman asked Or. sheftall If be
did not wish to buy a pistol.
The doctor replied by request
ing the man to bring the
weapon to his Office, where 1t could be
examined. As soon as il was produced
the doctor recognized il as his own prop
ertv, and ascertained that the man had
bought il from Houston. The man was
then informed that the pistol had been
stolen and was the doctors property. This
discovery prompted the doctor to hunt
up Houston. who. upon being confronted
sdmifted his guilt and showed where he
had concealed the bTeastpins. He re.
fused. however. TO disclose how he had
disposed OF the surgical instruments.

COLLIDED IN FOG.

The steamer MARY Morgan Drifts in
to the "TOm Collier and Breaks in
Her sides.
The steamers "Mary Morgan" and
tom Collier collided in the Cumber-
land river about 80 miles north of Fernan-
dina on Wednesday night at $3.50 O'Clock.
The stem of the Collier was Knocked out
and hole cut in her wheelhOuse by the
force of the collision. The Morgan had a
hole cut in her port side above the water
line, but was not disabled. The fog was
very dense at the time the collision Oc-
CURED. and the Collier was at anchor
with her side lights up. The Morgan OBJ
served her about $50 yards distant, and
whistled to pass to the right. The Collier
answered as if moving. The officers of the
Morgan Immediately after whistling saw
that collision was imminent and reversed
the engines, but the tide drltted her into
the Collier, her port side striking her
stern.
AS soon as it was learned that the
Collier was seriously injured Capt. Trultt,
of the Morgan, went alongside and took
her passengers on board and carried them
to Brunswick. the destination OF the Col
lieT, and the latter was beached. 1t was
afterwards discovered that her Injuries
were not as serious as was at first appre-
hended. and she resumed her trip and ar
rived at Brunswick on Thursday. The
MOrgan's voyage was not interrupted by
the collision, and she made the run to Sa-
vanuah in safety, although delayed to
some extent by dense fog that prevailed
both Wednesday and Thursday nights.
There were nine passengers on board
the Collier when the collision occurred.
They were taken aboard the Morgan
with their baggage, and all spoke in
the highest terms of the courtesy extended
by the officers of that vessel, and of the
kind treatment they received. Capt.
Truitt made a report Of the affair TO the
local inspectors Immediately upon his
arrival in port.
