INCoNGRUoUs DRESS.
Arrest of Man Suspected Of tealing
Clothes.

During the twenty-four hours preced-
ing yesterday noon no less than twenty
petty thieves had been rounded up and
taken to police headquarters. The last one
TO register and turn over his valuables to
the clerk for safe keeping was Pearl Will
son, well-known character, whose face
is not unfamiliar to the police. Officer
Krebs found in his possession black
suit of clothes, an Astrakhan overcoat
and a light drab overcoat.
The appearance of those goods was too
far out of line with the clothes he wore
and his well-known character, and it was
thought best to hold him for further de-
velopments. 1t is thought that the goods
may have been stolen in Vancouver.

a palace OF one Of their arlstocrats the
opening scene Of a sad domestic drama
was presented a few years ago. The
denonment Of the same drama Is being
enacted In New York City at tho
present time.
The palace Is that OF Count Szirmay,

held high position In the Court Of the
Emperor. About 1850 his wife lett
