SOME YOUTHFUL BURGLARS.
A Gang of Boys Clean Fourth Avenue Cellars
of All Eatables.

A Gang of Boys Clean Fourth Avenue Cellars
of All EatabIes.
A gang of boy thieves have begun lively
operations right in. the center OF the cily,
and people on Fourth avenue are greatly
exercised in consequence
Saturday night, shortly after 10, they
broke into the cellar of 2O4 Fourth avenue,
occupied by Ed Mellon, watchman at the
Fourth avenue station, on the Panhandle
The boys helped themselves to everything
in sight, including bread, meat, butter, pre-
serves, etc., but did not attempt to break
into the house proper.
They must have conducted operations
very quietly, for no one was awakened, and
they extended their operations to No. 200,
occupied by Mr.. Mccain. Here, as be-
fore, they paid all attention to what was in
the cellar, and obtained a supply OF chick
ems, meat and provender sufficient to feed a
regiment.
The same gang then moved on to No. 90
Ross street, and at about l o'clock Mrs.
Burns heard cautious grating at the door.
She opened the window and saw few slight
forms on the street, evidently boys quite
young. She leaned forward and saw that
two boys had crawled over the wire screen at
the door and were cautiously trying the lock.
She began to scream for the police, or any
body else, and anybody but the police came.
The boys were frightened and scampered
away toward the Jail, where they will ulti-
mately land. Various opinions are ex-
pressed as to where the gang came from, and
police are on the watch, expecting to run
them in on their next attempt.

THE MISSION CLOSED.
The Ceremony of the Lighted Candles at
the Point Church.

The Ceremony of the Lighted Candles at
the Point Church.
The mission at st. Mary's of Mercy
Church, at the Point, which was conducted
by the Redemptorist Fathers, closed yester-
day afternoon. At o'clock the last SER
vice was held and was for the benefit of the
male members of the congregation only.
Father Trimple conducted the service and
preached the sermon. The subject of his
remarks were: "Baptismal Vows" The
discourse was instructive, and was listened
to very attentively.
A curious feature of the services was the
ceremony of holding the lighted candles by
those present. After the sermon Father
Trimple blessed the candles and then had
them lighted. While holding the candles
in their hands the congregation repeated
after the priest renewal of the vows made
by their sponsors. This is probably the first
time that this solemn ceremony has been
done in this country.
The mission has been very successful
one, and the credit is due to Father Sheedy,
who has been very jealous to keep his flock
in the straight and narrow path. The total
number of comm unicants during the week
has been 1,200.
The reverend fathers left on the o'clock
train last evening for Mount Washington,

Arthur Cruschinsky, the young Chicago
lad who was reported to have been abducted
from Chicago because he was supposed to be
heir to q fortune of $4,000, was at the
Twenty-eighth ward police station yester-
day, where reporter found him and elected
the following facts from the boy:
"My name is Arthur Cruscinsky, and I
am IA years of age. My home is on Geneva
street, Brighton Park, Chicago, where my
parents now live. was not abducted, but
1 went away from home voluntarily"
When asked why, he said: 'My father
has always treated me very cruelty, in fact,
I do not believe he is my right father; any
how, one of my aunts in Chicago has often
told me 30. I have two sisters and brothers
and my father always treats them better
than he does me- My mother never takes
my part, because if she did father would
beat her.

factory where earned So and often 81 a
week. 1 also worked in a lumber yard
once, where made 80 week.
II was walking along the street in Chi
cago when this man who brought me here
came to me and asked me whether would
like to go to Youngstown with him. said
yes because 1 had often wanted TO go away
on account of my fathers cruelty to me,
and then 1 have an aunt who lives in
Youngstown, and thought might be bet
ter taken care of by her. That is the rea-
son why 1 left with him. do not know
his name at all. We got into Pittsburg
yesterday morning and we were trying to
get on Lake Erie Railroad train when the
man skipped and left me behind. 1 was
found there by policeman, who took me to
the Thirty-sixth ward station house, and
from there 1 have been brought here"
'Do you want to go home again?"

When the question was asked him whether
he knew that he was heir to a fortune of
$50, 900, left him by his grandfather, the boy
remarked, smilingly:

ofthe Unfortuuates.
Evil doers bring upon themselves swift
destruction" solemnly enuneiated the
Court at Central yesterday morning; khen
he set to work to demonstrate the Biblical
quotation.
An officer testified he found Ed White
and Frank McCague scrapping. They
were sin holts." The Court grappled with
them, and both went down in the first
round-S8 40 each.
Frank Smith backed up against a wall
on Tunnel street, drew sanguinary knife
and defed everybody of his day and gener-
alton and two other men. 1t just takes
Sc 40 to do that in Pittsburg, and Sam
Early, one of the other men, paid the same.
The other man galloped away ere the police
could surround him.
Dan Stewart, drunk on Wylie, 81 40.
Massie Walls loaded up, hunted hand
some pane of glass on Fifth avenue, and
calmly fell through. This sort Of amusement
comes high.
James Early, up on Wylie avenue, asked
the officer where in Chicago he was. The
officer gave him his geographical bearings,
and during a dispute on some technical
point, run him in. Gripp said go, and
he stood not upon the order of his going,
but fed toward Butler county.
John Besenwald, "while waiting for his
ma" in Gusky's, tried to absorb vest. An
officer absorbed Johnnie, and his ma will
wait for him.
Messrs Doyle and Brenner ate meal in

Martin Dugan insulted two ladies, and
chivalrous Rosey called him down. Martin
made swing at Rosey with knife, but
only cut through coat and pants. It was
then the officers turn, and Martins life was
made miserable until the patrol came. An
information will be made against Dqgan
for attempting to mar the beauty of one of
the handsomest officers on the force.
Joe Johnston raised a row on Second ave-
nue., and when an officer was called tried to
get away with the same old bluff, "Oficer,
what's your number? I'll have you fred''
-$8. 40, and the officer is still on his beat.

his way home early yesterday morning, and
when near the corner of Steuber and Alex
