They STOLE BY WAGOR-LOADS.
Three Star Sneak Thieves and
Their Plumber in Custody.
Disguised as PeddIcrs, They Robbed
Scores of Flats and Houses.

The West Twentieth street police sta.
tion resembled small-sIzed Quitting
house this morning. In the rear rooms
dozens of dresses and other wearing
apparel were strung on clotheslines,
and people went along inspecting each
garment with more care than they would
use had they intended purchasing.
The clothing had all been recovered by
the ward detectives of the Sixteenth Pre-
cinct, and the persons inspecting tho gar.
ments were the people who had been
robbed by clever trio of burglars.
While the inspection was going on, De-
tective Carey brought three hard looking
cases up from the cells and handcu fed
them together. They were Edward
Fucher De Foy, of LAG Macdougal street.
Arthur G.. Allard, of 1855 Macdougal
street, and James Lemoyn Guion, of 317
Bowery.
These prisoners were in custody as the
results of very clever work by Detective
Carey De Foy hns been wandering
around Carey's precinct for some timo
past and as he appeared to be doing
nothing in particular Carey viewed him
with suspicion.
Last Wednesday Carey had cotton of
an Eighth avenue car when he bumped
into young man who was just coming
out of q hallway with an armful Of
clothes. The man turned his face around
aud il was De Foy.
Carey nabbed him on tho instant and
pulled him into tho hallway from which
he had inst emerged.
Taking the bundle from De Foy. the
detective found that IL contained hand.
aOma black lann md ai1lf Iraaa
De Foy was taken to the stationhouRe
where he weakened and confessed his
thief. The detective went to the house
at 14j Macdougal street and there arrested
Allard and Guion. A great quantity of
stolen clothing was recovered. and hun
dreds Of pawn tickets were secured from
the prisoners.
They have been operating all over the
precinct, and have made some big hauls
After safely locking the prisoners MP,
the detectives visited the pawnshops,
aud the result was that two wagon loads
of stuff were recovered. A woman who
10 known to the police as May Cooper,
also arrested and will be used as a
witness.
Carey took his prisoners to the Jeffer
son Market Court this morning and had
them remanded until all the victimized
people could identify their property and
make complaints.
these men gained admittance to fat
houses on the pretext of being peddlers,
and 1t is supposed they have entered and
robbed over half q hundred houses in this
way. Allard claimed the credit of being
the chief robber. saying that he stole all
the property and took it to De Foy's
house.
This afternoon the detectives will visit
other shops, and the probabilities
are that another wagon-l load of stolen
property will be added to that already
in the station house.
McAleeuan's pawn-shop on Eighth
avenue near Nineteenth street yielded up
taker, Of 249 Ninth avenue: Edward b.
Nodine. OF 1855 Ninth avenue; Mrs. Vine,
of 225 West Fifteenth street and John II.

the other two watching fearfully for the
result on the old lady of Ben's desperate
experiment.
Suddenly man sprang from the bow
and flew to the old lady. She opened
wide her arms, and in moment they
were clasped about him, while cry of
JOY rang out on the quiet Sabbath air.
The others looked on in amazement.
Ben Maryweather had unwittingly
hit upon one of those singular coinci-
denceS which, when they occur, are the
wonder of those who know of them. 1t
was Tom Van Arden who had come in
on the ship they had been looking at,
and was now clasped in his mothers
arms. His sister, of course, did not
know him.
The explanation was not long in COM
ing. Young Van Arden had been cast
ashore on one of the South Sea islands
and had been sold into slavery 6y the
natives as Ben had hazarded. A few
months before his return home he, with
several others who had been captured

Why, you could have given an egg
breakfast to seventy persons, and, at the
rate of two of our domestic hens eggs TO
each person, would have had plenty. just
think of taking the contents of 40 of
our hens eggs and putting them into
one egg shell.
The bird that laid this enormous egg
is known as the Aepyornis maximus, and
1t was the largest bird ever known to
exist. 1t was a first cousin of the ostrich,
although a much larger bird, towering
above the tallest giraffe.
From the circumstances under which
the first egg was found it was hoped the
bird might still be living. but only the
incomplete skeleton of it and fragments
of other eggs were ever discovered
There is but one complete egg of this
giant bird to be seen in the civilized
world at present, and it is cracked in
several places. 1t is In the possession Of
the French government, and is kept In

the most unfeeling individuals to the
sense of something exceptional lingering
in the air.
Preparations for Easter begin as early
as the Carnival, week during which
devout people already abstain from
meat, though they eat everything else
and freely enjoy the frolics pertaining to
the time. With the first day, of Lent
about ninety millions of Russians-eighty
millions comprising the peasant class

a vegetable diet, the poorest relying
chiefly on picked cabbage, cucumbers,

the least. a great many well to do peo-
pie likewise abstain from fish, which. ac-
cording to the severe rules of the Greek
church, can be eaten in Lent only on
Annunciation day and on st. Lazarus
Saturday, preceding Palm Sunday
1t can well be conceived that the hui
man system gets very much run down
by such diet when kept up for seven
consecutive weeks, and that in conse-
quence of it nerves begin to play sad
havoc with delicate constitutions. Then,
as if this were not sufficient. comes the
week of church devotions obligatory on
every member of the Greek church pre-
vious to the receiving of the Holy Sacra-
ment These devotions imply going to
church at least twice day and once in
the night, the services lasting about two
hours on an average. Though most men
