The proverbial gaiety Of the French
keeps them in good humorwhen men o.
Saxon blood would be tearing out some
body. After the lOss OF their millions in
the Panama canal scheme, in spite oil
the modification over the utter and dis
graceful wreck Of an enterprise which
was to have shed glory on the country
and given It a fresh hold in the new
world, the French are actually laughing
over the collapse.

A LIFE OF CRIME.
Career OF John Shea, Of This City, Sem
fenced In st. Louis for Life.

John Shea, who has been sentenced In st.
Louis, Mo-, to 80 years in the penitentiary
Gas stated in dispatch TO TIE Stan yesterday,
is wen-known in this city, Of which he il q ma
tive. He il now about tventy-six years Of age,
and ID the son of David Shea, q stone-cutter,
who some years since worked on the capitol
and resided with his family, wife and three
sons, on F street, near Delaware avenue south
west. The father, Woodworking man when
sober, was violent when drinking, and this
habit grew on him. In one of his sprees he as
saulted police officer in South Washington,
and was sent to the insane asylum. This was
about twelve years ago, and the family then
left the city, the mother and her sons going to
St. Louis, where the mother opened board
ing-house. John killed q police officer in st.
Louis about eight years ago, but escaped from
the courthouse and came TO this city, and it is
alleged that he, with Sam Morris, committed
burglary here. Shea escaped, but
Morris was convicted and sent to the
penitentiary for six years. Shea had been fol-
lowed from st. Louis here by Detective John
p. Browning, Of that city, but the officer was
eluded, and the next heard of Shea was that he
had committed a burglary at Pittsburg, Pa,
and was sentenced to the penitentiary for six
years. Mr.. Browning found him serving under
the name OF John ID. Sullivan and secured
pardon from the governor OF Pennsylvania in
order to take the prisoner to st. Louis. Shea
refused to accept pardon under the circum-
stances, and the detective had to await the ter
mination OF his sentence. While in the Penn
sylvan1a prison Shea wrote here acknowledging
the burglary in this city, of which Morris had
been convicted, stating that he gave to Morris
the property found on him, but this did not
have the effect OF mitigating Morris condition.
The father of the Shea family is reported to
be in California; the mother died few years
ago in st. Louis and her body was brought here
for interment. The remaining two brothers,
Dave and Dan, are now in the Baltimore peni-
Tertiary for terms Of four and half years
each for burglary at Cumberland, Md, few
years ago

having attempted to take his bundle from him.
The young man admitted that he did it for fun.

THE sEAroN VASE.
Trial Of Ferdinand Lowenstein for Re-
ceiving Stolen Property.

The trial Of the case OF Ferdinand Lowen-
stein, the dealer in second hand gold and silver,
charged with receiving the stolen (Seaton
family silverware, taken from the house OF
Mrs. Munroe, No. 1888 street, by Frank Brain
erd, which trial was begun in the Police Court
Saturday, was resumed yesterday.
The property in question included q hand
some vase presented to the late Mayor Seaton.
MIR. Malcolm Seaton was recalled and testified
that he had used the vase in question; that it
was under his control; he left it at his sister
house (Mrs. Munroe's) for safe keeping, and it
was taken without his knowledge or consent
Frank Brainerd, who, when on the stand be-
fore admitted that he took the vase, was also
recalled He was questioned by Mr. Shilling
ton concerning his relationship to the Seaton
family.
Prosecuting Attorney Armes objected, on the
grounds that counsel had no right to inquire
into private matters
THE OWNERSHIP OF THE VASE.
Mr.. Shillington said he asked the question
with the idea of rebutting the evidence that a
theft had been committed. He expected to
show that Brainerd was related to the persons
to whom the vase would CO. and it might turn
out that he was SO related that he had an inter
est in the property, and the taking of it might
not be larceny. He also referred to the fact
that Brainerd had not been prosecuted for the
alleged theft.
The judge admitted the question and witness
replied that he was related to the Seatons and
Munroes.
M. W. Gait, the jeweler, was then called to
prove the value of the vase. He testified that
the marketable value of the vase was $50. The
fact that there was an inscription on it did not
affect its value, because the inscription could
be erased. The vase, he said, would sell for
about $50.
Mr.. Lewis, the jeweler, gave similar evil
dence.
Counsel on each side argued the case and the
judge reserved his decision,
The case will be disposed of tomorrow.
