carts and trucks and about the ordinary
amount Of passers. But everything was quiet
and / was about to move on to make my
rounds.
Just then a young man came out Of the fur
niture store. He walked rather rapidly and
crossed TO the opposite side of the street. AL
though there was nothing suspicious in his
appearance, for he was neatly enough
dressod-not flnshy nor ~slovenly in his looks
at all-yet my attention was somehow arrested
by him. If I had to say what it was that led
me 10 keep my eyes on him II might be hard
to put il into words. But probably 1t was
the suggestion Of an attempt on his part to
seem at ease, and, at the same time, a feeling
he gave me of trying not to go as fast as he
wanted to.
This was not much, but after he had gone
n few yards he half turned round and looked
up the street. He glanced at the furniture
store which he had just left. II was only q
momentary glance, but it was enough to
confirm my suspicious. When he turned
again, after walking q little further on, and
took a second look behind him, still in the
direction Of the furniture store, 1 felt that
there was some crooked business on
hand.
At this moment a man came out of the fur
niture shop and looked up and down the
street. The fellow had quickened his pace and
was now some little distance away. I started
for the man as soon as l saw him come out in
this way. He saw me, and as sooh as l got
near enough l asked:
"What is the matter ?"
"Why, somebody has been through my
safe" he said, excitedly.
Just now ?' l inquired.
"Yes," said the furniture man. ~ was In
the back part of the store with a customer
and saw the fellow come in. I supposed he
wanted to buy something. and I meant to &c
to him as soon as / was through with the
man who was talking to me. 1 thought he
would wait. missed him after two or three
he bad gone out. Then l saw him leaving
the Office and he walked of.
~ didn't try to recall him and went or
with my customer, when suddenly 1 remem
bered that 1 had left the key in my safe in
the office. 1 left what 1 was doing and
hurried to the place to see if everything was
all right. The safe door was open and some
of the papers were lying on the floor. The
man had been through it. Fortunately my
money was locked up in a compartment in
the safe. But 1 do not know whether he MAY
not nave taken something"
He is walking down this street now, and
ri get him. 1 said to the man, hastily leav
ing him.
The fellow had got below Broome street by
this time. I walked quickly after him.
had kept my eye on him the whole time. Fl,
was walking faster himself now. I took
very rapid gait in the hope of getting up OF
him pretty close before he would notice tina
l was following him.
But he was getting near Grand, and.ther'
are 30 many walking there that 1 feared t,
lose him and began to run. He looked back

WHY RUSH z

And now a mans leg has been broken in

What possesses the average New Yorker,

LOVES LANGUAGE,

The language of love is more universal
than Volapiik will ever be.
The wooing, winning and elopement with
pretty Pennsylvania girl. by a deaf and
dumb mar from Connecticut. shows that
love does not depend upon any speech. It
flashes from the eye. 1t tingles its message
through the fingers. 1t proclaims itself upon
bent knees. 1t is eloquent in gestures. 1t
conveys through the lips what the tongue
could not utter. Its vocabulary is caresses.
There are no locks nor bars that love does
not laugh at. Long live Love!

The only political capital that could be
