A YOUNG LADY THIEF.
The people along the crowded thorough
fare OF Ninth street were aStonis he'd Thurs
day to see pretty and genteel appearing
young lady come dashing down the sidewalk
and in pursuit of her grocery clerk shout
Mary Russell of Geneva and she had just
robbed the cash box of John Schuller the
grocer at POS North Ninth street, while she
supposed nobody was looking. Sne was seen
committing the theft, however, and when
Charles Miller, the clerk, approached her she
darted out of the store and down the
street. Miller gave chase and proved
the better sprinter Of the two as he
captured her before she got block away.
She was taken to the police station and given
cell. She gave the assumed name of May
Wilson to the officers and pretended that her
occupation was that of Sherwoman. She
had been in the city only an hour when she
robbed the cash box, and the fact that she
had only cents in her pocketbook explains
what prompted her to committee theft. She
secured only s. from the cash box.
The girl took her arrest very coolly, but
when the great iron door closed on her she
began to realize her situation and melted
into tears. An hour later she was found in
raigned, found guilty and fined s45 and COSTS
In default she went to the county jail.
