MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING.

That "Fence" Found by the Police Wasn't
Fence" at All.
Last Sunday great ado was made over the
unearthing of a 'fence" that was a Vertable
cave OF richness, surprising the tabled ones
brought to light through the agency of Alad-
dIn's lamp. Money was found in great guam
tity, and the police were in high glee over their
find. The case was called in the Police Court
yesterday, and the keeper of the place, one
Hawkins by name, was honorably acquitted, as
it was shown that it was his own stuff, gathered
together by years of toll as an ashnan.

NEW YORK, November .
There is always a question rampant in New
York among the women. | say rampant ad-
yisedly, for they get so very much interested in
it that they can't even meet each other in the
street-cars without bringing it to the fore. They
discuss it at uncheons, and at after dinner talks
in the drawing-room, and after it has been
talked about and talked about until it is thread
bare then a new one is brought to the surface.
just now it is blondes aud brunettes. Every
place you go they ask you what you think about
them, and she is lost forever, from the culture
standpoint, who believes that she must reply as
to which type of beauty she prefers, or what she
thinks of bleached blondes No, it is a question
of intensity of feeling and ability to hold the
affections of man. The vote is strongly in
favor of the blonde as far as holding the man is
concerned. but in favor of the brunette so far as
affection goes.

a HINT FOR BRUNETTEs.

Two positive types, the blondest of blondes
and the darkest of brunettes, were talking of it.
Said the blonde: "You brunettes always make
the mistake of being too afrectionate. You let
a man think that he is the one object in your
life and all you live for. He is so certain that
he grows Indifferent. He wearies of your
caresses; he tires of your sweet words. You
see, you give him too much plum pudding, and
he doesn't appreciate it. Now, the way to keep
a man is to make him love you, but don't you
love him too much. Let him realize that he is
secondary to your dogs, your frocks, and your
books. When he is with you be at your best
and brightest, and when you do show him a
favor make him feel it keenly.n

play Is based upon the abduction of one
child from the nursery OF wealthy New

child Of the abductress. Like all such
plays 1t came to happy ending, by the
lest child being restored TO her parents
and winning the man Of her choice.
Walter owen took the part of Roy Traf-
ford lone of the '400'0 who had been
estranged from Laura CORTLAND, the
latter character being ably assumed by
Miss Zenaide Vislarre; Miss Emily Kean

was never brought up. Harry Hottie

larceny of pair of shoes, the property
of Emma Jones, on August IL. The ties
