one of Chicago's Celebrities Sent to
Jail for Street Begging.
CHICAGO, ILL, Noy 29.-Peter Mueller,
an old man reputed to be worth S750, 900,
was yesterday sent to the Bridewell for
sixty days for begging on the streets, For
many years Mueller and his wife lived in a
miserable howell on the banks of the Illinois
and Michigan canal, in the township of
cicero. They lived in a most miserable
manner, denying themselves all except what
was absolutely necessary to keep them alive,
Many stories were told by the neighbors of
their reputed wealth, and one night about
four years ago four masked men entered
the howell and demanded the "Dot Of goldn
the old couple were believed to keep
therein. Mueller and his wife pro-
tested that they had no money.
Then the robbers, by the most horrible
tortures. sought to draw from them the
secret of the hiding place of the treasure,
but IN vain. The next day the Muellers
were found almost dead by neighbors,
Their feet were terribly burned aud their
bodies covered with bruises and cuts in
flicted by the miscreants.
Mueller, for several years past, has made
practice OF begging on the streets, and
about year ago was locked up one night.
Next morning, the justice, moved by com
passion by the old mans pitiful tale, dis
charged him from custody. When Mueller
returned to his miserable home he found the
dead body of his wife hanging to q rafter.
1t was supposed she had worried SO over
her husbands absence-the first during their
married life-that, In a moment of great
dependency, she had taken her own life,
Since then Mueller has lived all alone in the
shanty, making no change in his mode of
living.
Sunday he made such q nuisance of him
self, begging in front of st. Francis
church, that an officer arrested him. Yes
terday in the justice court he refused to
answer any question or to pay the fine
imposed, and was sent to the Bridewell.
Mueller owns $50 acres of land in sections
81 and 36, aud is possessed of stocks and
bonds worth several hundred thousands of
dollars

CHARLESTON, S. c., Dec 3.-There is a
row in police circles, caused by an incident
that occurred behind the scenes at the opera
last night. 1t seems that two of the je1ness
doree of the city, the upper crust of the
upper swelldom, managed to get behind the
scenes while the girls we're on. The stage
carpenter, William Nestor, ordered them
out, and, upon their refusing to go, knocked
one of them down. The other came to the
rescue, and q fight ensued. The police came
up. Although Nestor explained that he
was obeying orders in ejecting the men
from the house they arrested Nestor and
allowed the golden youths to go free.
TIE PRISONER DISCHARGED.
When the case came up for a hearing to-
day, the chief of police requested that Nestor
be discharged, which was done. The police
man who made the arrest will be hauled
oyer the Goals, and it is not improbable
that the golden youths will be hauled up
before magistrate. until which time their
names will DO suppressed. 1t Is said that
the same two youths were fired out of q
h 1tel recently while the Spider and the
