Two Young Men Offer to Sell Machines
Cheap and Arc Arrested.
About 10 o'clock yesterday morning
two strangers entered the store of
Messrs. A. X. X G. L. Schaap. Each OF
them had bicycle, which they offered
TO sell for $50 apiece. The extremely
low price asked led the senior member
OF the firm, Mr. A. X. Schaap, to suspect
that something was wrong. Recog-
nizing from some peculiarties OF tho
machines that they came from Washing
ton. Mr.. Schaap notified the police, and,
taking the numbers of the wheels, "
telegraphed TO that city.
Last night about 3 o'clock Mr.. Schaap
received m answer from Washington
stating that the "'cycles" had been
stolen from Messrs. George S. Atwster Il
Co., OF that city. Before tins Mr..
Schaap had instructed his negro porter,
Humphrey Stevens. TO make an engage
ment with the two men at the ST. Claire
Hotel under the pretenco that he would
bring them purchasers for the bicycles.
At the appointed hour Mr.. Schaap, Ser
geant Tommson, Policeman T. G. Wiki
inson, and MIR. George Stokes veroin the
vicinity Of the hotel on the lookout for
the alleged thieves. Stevens Was at the
hotel looking for the men. Suddenly the
negro called out, "IIere he is and
caught hold of a man, who attempted 10
draw pistol. Before he could do 60
Sergeant Tomlinson stepped up, covered
him with his pistol, and put the cuffs on
him. Hearing the disturbance and see
ing his partner struggling with negro,
the second man was thrown oil his
guard and ran to help his friend. As
he appeared the negro cried out,
There's the other" He also tried 10
get out his pistol, but Policeman Will
kinson had the cuffs on him in n mo-
ment. The first man arrested also at
tempted TO use a razor, which Mr.. Stokes
took away from him.
Atthe Second station-house the men
gave the names of j. Harcourt and Peter
Ferris.
The Washington officers were in
formed of the arrest, and will probably
be here this morning for their prisoners.
The young men, who are respectively
eighteen and twenty years of age,
say they hired the bicycles in Wash
ington and had no idea of stealing
them until after they had crossed
over the Long Bridge into Virginia.
They state that they left that city
Monday, and rode all the way to Rich
mond, ll6 miles, following the railroad.

Tho GYPSY BnrOn.

Johann Strauss masterpiece, Tho
Gypsy Baron" was presented at the
Academy last night by the Conried Opera
Company.
The opera is very mclodiOus one-hlled
with stirring choTuses and the sensuous
waltz movements that characterize the
works of the Vienna waltz King"
The opera was presented in an admirable
manner. the best feature of the perform
ance being the fine singing Of the chorus.
All of the ensembles were well dOne-the
finale Of the first act noticeably 50. The
chorus work was marked by broadness Of
phrasine and roundness and depth OF tone.
Mrs. Padelford was the centre Of attrac,
ton. Her r6le was difficult one, and
much Of the music was too heavy for her
voice, which is a light soprano Of charm
ingly tender quality. Her singing was so
tuneful and her phrasing 50 expressiyet that
this was lost sight Of.
The cast as awhole was very good.
Tonight the Gypsy Baron will be re
peated with Miss Rita Selby in the role of
Safti. Miss Selby is young and attractive
woman who has soprano Of remarkably
fine quality. One OF the members of the
company Is Mr.. f. S. Grant, who is q bro
Their OF Mr.. william II. Grant, Jr., OF this
city. Last night Mr.. giant sang the basso
part of Count Carnero.
