MISDEEDS and MISHAPS.
HENRY SCHWARTZ, TIRE SUS.
PECTED EXPRESS R0BBER
Arrested on the Charge OF Blgamy-
An Opera House Burns
Cunning Thieves.

CHICAGO, III December 5.-Henry
Schwartz, formerly OF Philadelphia,
now in the county jail here, charged
with biRamy, is strongly suspected OF
being the man guilty of the daring
robbery Of the Rock Island express
train last March, when kellogg
Nichols, the express messenger, lost
his life and 5000 was stolen from
the express car. Schwar'z for two
years has been a brakeman on the
Rock Islsnd road. Friday night as
he came into the depot with histrain,
an officer to- K him by the arm and
marched him TO the Harrison Street
Station. Yesterday he was arraigned
for having married a wife in Pnila-
delphia seven years a2o and with hav-
ing married a Chicago woman two
years sgo. At his own solicitation
his case was continued in $1,000 bail
until December 4th. At first he
maintained q dogged silence, but now
yolubly alleges that the Rock Island
Company does not care whether he
has one vile oil q hundred il he or
some o else san be sent TO the peni-
Tertiary for the robbery OF the express
car. He eonfessss that he has spent
much more money than he has earned
or could have received from home,
but he Is not ready to tell where the
money came from. As q brakeman,
SchwaIts was one OF the crew on the
Ill fated train TO which Messenger
Nicholls's car was attached. No GUS
picioA was directed toward him at the
time. When, In compliance with tele-
graphic instructions, Schwartz was
returning TO Chicago to attend the
inquest, the conductor Of the train
found in the toilet room OF the car in
which Schwartz was seated a black
hand bag which some one had tried TO
foroe down the closet pipe. 1t was
empty, but sticking in a fold OF the
cloth was q piece Of what looked like
a part Of q check. Schwartz was no.
ticeably confused by the discovery.
Various minor circumstances pointed
to him as the owner OF the bag. Sub
sequent iuvestigat ON showed that the
torn bit OF paper fitted into q mutt
lated check that was among the scat
tered contents OF the riflsd express
car. From that time Schwartz was
Swallowed day and night. He was
spending with a lavish hand. The
money stolen from the express a
was mostly in bills Of large denomina-
tons, and about $1,000 in $50 bills that
Schwartz had spent here and there in
the East were obtained by the detect
ives. From the first 1t has bean CON
coded that the crime was committed
by a railroad man. Now the railway
and express officials hope that the
mystery Of the cold blooded murder
and daring robbery is soon to be
cleared away

leRe go 6 nearly 100000 by the death
Saturday OF II. Price Greenleaf, an
eccentric miser Of this city, who lived
almost q century. Hs was a typical
miger. With hundreds Of thousands
Of dollars behind the granite walls of

himself Of nearly al the privileges
and most Of the necesaaries OF life. He
had agreat desire to be immortalised

a short time ago that his days on earth

to have his photograph taken. His
wish was %gratihed, and the photograph
was taken while he was propped in

A Cute Thief.

CHICAGO, ILL, December 6.-Tgo
years 40 the city papers gave much
space to the novel method OF thievery
employed by a young German eleotri-
clan named Paul Just, who had
robbed shurley, a jeweler, at No. 70
State stree, of valuable gems. He
grabbed the jewels from the tray, ran
out the door and climbing the stair
case to the top floor mounted the roof
Of the Central Music Hall, pulling the
ladder, which helped him from the
skyliRht, up after him. He was
caught, however, and eventually sen.
fenced to Joliet for n year. Num-
bsrs Orwell known men interfered in
his behalf and his term was conse-
queDtly shortened. At the time of
his arrest he was identified by Dom
nelly, the Dearborn avenue jeweler,
as the fellow, VINO, looking at a watch,
stepped 10 the door, and calling to an

This unrivaled tragedian will appear
at the Grand Opera HouseIon Thursday
next, April Goth. in Victor Hugo's trag.
edy in five acts, "Hernani. in which
Mr.. Barrett will appear as Hernaui.
The first English version Of this play
was produced at the Drury Lane Thea
ter, London, April 8, 1881. with the
elder Wallack, Macready and Cooper in
the cast. 1t has been materially
strengthened and improved by Mr.. Bar
rett, who has been greatly aided in his
work by the literary skill OF one OF
Americas greatest poets. The part OF
Hermann, which will be played by Mr..
Barrett, is the central figure OF the
drama, and was created in the English
version Of the play by Mr.. Wallack.
This is the play which caused the
quarrel between the romantic and class
ical writers o.. French playa battle
which was fought with great violence
by both parties on the stage OF the
Comedie Franchise early in the present
century, with all literary France for the
combatants and the world for an audi
ence.
In the original cast Mile. Mars scored
her first great success as Hugo's hero
inc. After an era of political psrsecu-
tion and ostracism, when Hugo had re-
turned to France upon the ruins of a
fallen empire, his genius as dramatist
was again recognized by republican
France in most conspicuous reproduc-
ton Of the long -interdicted Herman, !"
in which the celebrated Sarah Bernhardt,
the no less renowned Got. Coquelin,
Mounet, Sully and Worms rivaled the
triumphs Of their predecessors.
MFR. Barrett will present the piece
with new and historically correct cos
TUNES and a strong cast.
