AN EXCITING CHASE.
How the Sabbatieal Quiet of Galena
Street Was Rudely Broken.

A curious scene was witnessed about 3
o'clock yesterday afternoon III East Gal
ena street, and one that created consider
able amusement. 1t was the flight OF 8
young lad who had helped himself to a
couple OF oranges from the basket OF a He
brew peddler. The vendor OF cramp-creat-
ing edibIes darted after the juvenile robber.
screaming "Shtop. thief :" and the boy ran
like a deer. The pursuer gained upon him,
however, and the boy dropped his plumber,
turning his head as he did SO. A fat citi-
zen. rushed out OF his house to discov-
er the cause OF the commotion. and the
boy with averted head plunged into his car
cass. Down went the fat citizen, and on
flew the boy. The race became exciting.
Bets were heard offered, as 1.-TWO to one on
the Kill" and the boy against the
field" Twice the boy was within arms
reach OF his pursuer, and twice the crowd
filled in and impeded the peddler's progress.
Broken-English oaths impregnated the air
like birthstone re olecules, and the features OF
the man who uttered them wore IN eN-
preston akin to that OF Mephistopheles.
His basket was depleted OF its contents by
the companions OF the flying youpgster,
ana a shower OF juicy bombs fell upon the
person of the man who owned them. At
last the boy was caught, and into his ear
we're poured all the red-hot adjectives in
and out of Noah Webster's dictionary.
The captor was about to inflict bodily pun.
ishment upon his writing prisoner when a
burly man stepped in and said, "Lemme
hev him." He was the boys paternal rel
alive, and the command was obeyed. He
threw a dollar at the outraged peddler,
grasped his offspring firmly by the collar
and started for home. "Wot a lickin'
Jimmy1l get" regretfully murmured one Of
the culprit's brethren in mischief, and Jim.
| my 9 face wore an expression OF dread that
justified the prophecy. The peddler recov.
cred as much of his property as he could
fiud, and resumed his tour OF the bagnios,
yelling "Or-r-anges."

A SABBATH BURGLARY.
Bold HOusebreakers Enter a Main.
Street Dwelling.

The residence OF Mrs. Hughes, on Upper
Main street, was ''bursled' last evening
while it was deserted by it's regular inmates,
who were at church. The cracksmen rihed
a couple OF trunks OF their most valuable
contents, captured SIS in cash belonging
to Miss Annie Hyer, a niece OF Mrs. Hughes,
and carried away a vali>e containing a
couple of suits OF clothes. the property OF
a male boarder. When Mrs. Hughes
returned home and discovered that
her dwelling had been ransacked. she
began a frantic search for a bundle of bills
amounting to $500 which she had con-
cealed in the house, but just where she had
deposited the valuable roll she could not
remember. She searched high and low, but
without success, and at last arrived at the
sorrowful conclusion that the burglars bad
found the money and taken it with them.
She then notified Chief Ledford of the
burglary and her belief that the $500 had
! the burly officer accompanied her to her
house to search for a clue which might
lead to the identity of the thieves.
While poking around the house the officer
ran across a whatnot, which he searched,
and in one of its drawers found the roll oil
bills. To say that Mrs. Hughes was de.
lighted would he superfuous. In her Joy
at recovering the currency she seemed to
overlook the fact that less valuable prop.
erty was missing, but that fact was not
lost sight OF by the officer. He concluded
his tour and departed in possession OF Ger.
tain clues which he refused to diynlge. but
which, it is hoped. will lead to the arrest
and conviction of the miserable sneake
who broke the Sabbath and Mrs. Hughes
resi- dence, and came within an ace Of
breaking her heart.
