WAS formerly entered by the jeweler
against the lady for stealing diamond

pretty well to do as this world goes
the father being credited with bags full
stocks and bonds together with sui
s,antial investments in real estate,
altogether amounting to two OF three
lacs of rupees, Of which the fair KEEP
tomaniac was the heiress apparent
She had pleasant home, her parents
were liberal aud kind, she wanted for
nothing, and there seemed no reason
that she should steal, but she did steal, ,
there was no mistake about that.
The fact was proven beyond dispute,
but by some hocus pocus, the inside Of
which no fellow could find out, she
acquitted, the jury thinking it impos-
sible that such pretty girl could do
anything 30 naughty, q verdict in
which the Court most heartily con
cirred. Every body was satisfied but
the jeweler, and he did not make much
of kick, for it was suspected Al the
time that the young ladys papa had
made good any loss he had sustained.
This very same jeweler had been
robbed exactly year before of cou.
pie OF diamond rings by nice young
lady. He could not on his oath iden.
tify the prisoner in the present case as
the heroine Of the former robbery. but
1t foated before his mind in sort of
shadowy, hazy, misty kind Of way that
the accused was the identical she. BE-
that as it may, the jury acquitted her
and instead OF taking a ride to the pen

ca'ly known as shoplifter, called

everything they can find to lay their
