 NEW YORK, August 2.--An alarm was sent from Police Headquarters yesterday puttia2 the precinct police on their guard against 6 thief who wears a jumper and pair of lawn tennis shoes and who works an old trick with great success. Hepretends to be line man sent to fix wires on the roof, and, ad- mtted in this capacity, finds his opportunity to steal.
 On Monday at noon he applied for perrnis- sion to go on the roof of Nilsson Hall, just around the corner from Irving place.. Admit ted by Mr. Bimberg, the proprietor, he went upstairs unattended. He missed a rare chance, for Mrs. Bim5crSs diamonds were lying on a mantei shelf in her room, and the door was open, but the thief probably lost his way and
 turned back, for few minutes later Mir. Bimberg SAW him ring inc iapitor's bef at the flat 131, across the street. - + I
 His coat was flung careicssly over his arm and he shufIlrd his feet to tho steps of 8 jig while waiting to be let in. Five minutes after the door had closed behind him the colored janitor, MT. Ambrose, can1e home and went upto see about the lineman. He was no on the roof, but his coat lay behind the chimney. Suspecting that something was wrong, he fastened his own shutter and went down to put the people.in 139 a boarding house kept Mrs. Ratford, on their guard. Access to its roof is easy from the fiat: '. ''@' '" .,.... He found the whole house in commotion. | The young wife of Ar. Isdore Suarez, d Span r ish tobacco merchant, who occupies rooms on | the third floor, had met the pretended line man on the stairs as she was going down to 1 lunch. Rememb ring that she had left her 1 door open, she went back soon after and 1 found the fellow runsnaGing her bureau. Mrs Suarez stood .sn8echloss withs terror, l while he pushed raet her, saying, coolly |;

 floor was open and pocketbook with a SIC l bill was-lying in sight. He stopped to take it
 along and went out of the front door. When
 she heard it slam Mrs. Suarez found her voice
 and yelled "Thefw and aroused the house | just as Janitor Ambrose rang the ben. But 1 tue thief was already around the corner.
 MT. Bhpberg saw him walk lesurely and turn
 into Irving place.
 |. The. thief had made good use of his oppor- 1 tunity, He had stolen two watches, one a l very valuable one with Masonic emblems and
 the Spanish coat-of-arms chased in the gold, pA diamond brooch, pair of sleeve buttons, a
 gold pencil, a ring with q ruby set in pearls, | and ouc diamond earring; com prised the rest | of his puntar. II was worth altogether over

A

Don't be afraid to marry a poor
man; but be sure that he has some
thing besides poverty to commend
him. Be sure that he has two strong
hands, not only skillful, but ready for
hard work. Be sure that he has an
occupation, or a position, which may
reasonably be depended on to yield a
good, comfortable living. Be sure
that he is industrious, and not self
indulgent; be sure that he is steady,
working six days in the week, and
about ffty-two weeks in the year. A
good, true, faithful young woman
ought to have no Eyes" for answer
to a proposal of marriage from a lazy
man, or a man who has no ixed occu-
patton, or a man who has lived half
his life off the hard earnings of his
mother or sister, going about the
streets meanwhile with his cane and
his cigarette and his fine clothes, play
ing the splendid gentleman. The girl
who will marry such a creature is one
of the silliest beings on the earth. He
will never be any comfort to her. He
will only drag her down into wretched
poverty, and into helpless, hopeless
dependence, in which she can no
longer care for herself. Let no self
respecting young woman eve put her
head into such a halter as hat for the
sake of having a husband. If she
does, the time will come when she
will wish she had no husband.-y. r

TIME TO HALT.

1t is time for the American people
to call a halt in the recklessly rapid in
crease of national expenses.
The expenditures of the government
for the current year are estimated by
the acting secretary of the treasury at
$42l, 600, 900. This is an increase Of
$lS5, 600, 900 in ten years Of peace,
though the annual interest account has
diminished in that time S53, 600, 900.
In 1860, with a population only
double that of 1860, the expenses are
$42l, 600, OO6, or over $40 per head.
The population has increased 100 per
cent. since the year before the war.
The expenses have increased over 500
per cent. The ratio will increase as
long as there is surplus to spend. The
surplus must be stopped.-New York
World.

AS AN INSECTI-
eide.

Is prepared by placing a quart Or
two of coal tar in a tub or barrel, and
then filling up with water. In about
4S hours the water will smell strong
of tar, when it may be dipped off and
applied to plants with a syringe or
common watering pot. 1t will not
kill the Larvae of the potato beetle as
has been claimed, neither will it pre-
vent the females from laying their
eggs on the leaves. 1t has no ap-
preciable effect on squash bugs, nor
the larvae of the imported elm tree
leaf-beetle. but it is death to the cab
bage butterfly (Pieras rapae). My
early cabbages were being rapidly
destroyed by these worms, but n
sprinkling with tar-water applied with
a watering pot, destroyed every worm
and egg. 1 write this hoping that it
will reach the readers of Orchard and
Garden in time to try this remedy on
their fall cabbages, for it is cheap and
easily applied. If it works a. we'll in
other gardens as in mine, then we
have nothing more to fear from this
imported cabbage pest.-A. s. Fuller.
