PETTY THIEVES AMONG H COTTON DEALERS

The cotton dealers Of this city and BROOKLYN have for a
long time past suffered from wharf and river thieves who
steal from each bale from a few ounces TO a dozen or more
pound, OF cotton.
The cotton" said william L. Campbell, inspcctor-in.
chief OF the Cotton Exchange, yesterday, "is generally stolen
on the way from the steamer to the warehouse. This THEY
ing j. the outcome OF a system which PERMITTED certain en-
nlovcs to have the samples. This privilege was soon found
TO be a Profitable one 10 the employees and opened the way
to so much abuse of the privilege that IL was finally stopped
and no more sample perqulsites are now claimed. The
temp,1tioa 10 make a little money. however. has been too
ST. ong, and the result is that the cotton dealer. suffer To- the
extent OF s35, 900 or siO, 900 every year. There Is such a
close shaving on profits tina: this loss becomes - matter Of
sci ious import TO the merchants. Whenever an arrest has
been made we have been constantly eXasperatrd by the
magistrates, who invariably require Us TO identity the cot.
ton stolen. VIC could not do this, Of course. while we were
morally certain that the cotton was ours and we were pre-.
pared to establish our claims upon circunstsntiai evidence.
We are now going 10 try TO circumVent these cotton thieves
by having the police more Ntiiant. The BROOKLYN Police
Department has been notified and extra care Will be OK.
ercised."
Acting superintendent Byrnes, at the request Of Mr..
Campbell, has sent out a general order for unusual care in
guarding cotton shipments.

Honesty in Christmas Giving.

The extent to which men and women
ordinarily honest and truthful grow dis
honest and untruthful at this season of
the year is lamentable As the fact is
largely due to thoughtlessness it is well
worth while to mention the matter with
warning intent.
If you give present at Christmas you
do SO by way of protesting affection or
regard for the person to whom you make
the gift. Ii you feel no such affection
or regard. but make the present from a
sense of social obligation or with q view
to some possible advantage to be got
from iattery, you are hypocrite
If by reason Of vainglory or shame
facedness, or what not, you give more
costly presents than you can afford you
are dishonest pretender. a sham, and
are acting in the spirit of the funky
who pretends to be my lord
In all such giving there is not grace,
but shame. It is utterly ont Of tupa

A beautiful, delicate, fragile vase,
The fruit of q mold that was quaint and olden.
It flashed with the charm of q subtle grace,
And CLEANED with q light that was rich and
golden.
A laundering hand and a careless blow,
And the fragile form is crushed and shat
tered;
Its charm and its graces are lying low,
In a thousand fragments scattered.
And never again while the world shall stand
Can the wrong of that reckless blow b
, righted;
Ahl never, not cen by an artists hand.
Can the scattered fragments be united.
Go, paste them into their former shape,
The scars on the surface will still show traces,
And unjoined edges will stand agape
Where once stood countless graces.
And what is my life but crystal vase
That an awkward blow has shattered and
broken? W
Its former beauty no touch may retrace,
And its wreck Of its richness is only token.
The pieces are fitted together again,
But the tone and the color are all unblended;
feel, with the pang of q nameless pain.
1t is only vase that is mended.
The Sunday morning news., 1891-12-13


with the spirit of the holiday season,
the spirit of good will and gladness and
true friendship.
The value of Christmas gift lies in
the testimony it gives of the affection
that prompts it. If that testimony be
false the gift is forsworn. If that testi-
mony be true it matters not at all what
its form may be.
If you can afford q rich gift and are
moved by affection to make it, all is
well. But if your means be small and
your affection great the expression may
be made as effective as in the other case.
There was poor little toddler once, the
son of laundress, who on Christmas
morning spent his solitary penny for a
clay pipe, and toiled through the snow to
give it, with radiant face, to one for
whom he had conceived an affection. It
was very common clay pipe, and he to
whom it was given possessed carven
meerschaums with costly amber stems.
But this was to him the most precious Of
them all. because in the smoke wreaths
that rose from it he saw the love Of a
little child reflected.
That was a true Christmas gift, HON
estly made in the spirit of Christmas,

spe ctacies.

II within our homes we would use the sams
.specks''
That we use when we visit next door,
And search for the flaws as we did over there,
think we would find many more.
If we'd use the same 'specks' when we look
at ourselves
That we don when our company near,
I fear we would need what would magnify less,
Or astonished we'd be, never fear!
But find all possess (where'er they may Hve)
For their own use kind deftly made,
With the glasses all darkened. to hide half the
view,
So their own faults remain in the shade.
But the ones which they use when at others
they glance
Have the glasses transparently clear,
With power tomagnify things twice the size
That the same through the dark ones appear.
Now / think that the world would much hap
pier be
If the specks, once for all, we would change,
And within our own rooms use the spectacles
clear,
With the dark for the much broader range.
Then, the faults that appear to US jaggedly
rough,
Would melt into outlines so fair
We would find that the world was beautiful
place,
And good people lived everywhere.
