THE MERRY BURGLAR.
He Continues to Crack Houses ans
Gather in SWag.

He Continues to Crack Houses and
Gather in Swag.
Despite the votes of thanks and ex.
pressions of confidence by the police
commissioners in that talented detec-
tive, Chief of Police Glass, the list OF
burglaries grows apace. Somehow the
cracksmen do not seem to fear the big
chief and are making swag while his star
shines.
Saturday night store on First street
was burglarized close to the Times Office,
but that apologetic organ of the chief of
course made no mention of it.
On Sunday night the residence of
Walter Keefe on Wilmington street, be-
tween First and Second streets, was en-
tered by burglars and systematically in
spected from one end to another. Mr..
Keefe has not yet ascertained the extent
of his loss, so great was the confusion in
which his belongings were left. The
Times will, however, not mention this
little episode this morning.
Two rooms, at 416 South Main street,
were entered and $29. 80 in cash, u watch
and chain, sleeve buttons, and other
articles were taken belonging to Tommy
O'Campo. This was reported to the po-
lice on March Sd, together with a de-
scription of the man who was suspected,
and in whose room later part of the
missing articles were found, yet nothing
has been heard about it from the police
administration.
These are, in all probability, only
very few OF such crimes recently COM
mitted.

O'Kelly wasn't snubbed.

CHICAGO, March 3O.-Mr. O'Kelly, the
Parneliite representative, arrived from
the west today and left for New York
this evening. In an interview he said
the report that he met with an un-
friendly reception in Nebraska, and the
alleged snubbing given him by Presi-
dent Fitzgerald, OF the land league, are
false. He met not only Fitzgerald but
other representative men, and carries in
his pocket their financial and persoanl
pledge to the cause of Parnell and Ire
land.

THE TERMINAL.
Putting in a New Embankment Along
the River.

The Terminal people have big string
of teams at work again near the Kuhrts-
street bridge, making new levee where
the February food washed out the one
builtla last fall. The Terminal people are
all tenderfeet, and the flood opened their
eyes to what the despised river is capa-
BILE of when it gets on tear after big
storm in the mountains. 1t is now ap-
parent that sand will not do for levee,
even with the very fine bulwark to hold
it in. So the levee is now being made
some twenty feet away from the bull
wark, leaving that space along the in
side of the piles and planks. The lnten-
tion is to face the sand inside the planks
with rock. That is about the only way
to curb the raging Los Angeles when
his floods come boiling down from the
cafiOns.

Special Letter to the Globe
New YORK, April 9.-As the weather
becomes more settled and springlike
there is every day an increasing display
of new gowns and wraps on the avenue.
The newest of these are, without doubt,
the fancy capes, of which there are in
finite varieties. AS they are capable of
so much adaptation and variation in
shape and trimming, and are the easiest
wraps to put on and off, there is no
question of their popularity for the next
SIX months, at least. But, attractive
though they may be with their air of
novelty, they have not succeeded in
driving from the field that Iong-estab-
lished favorite, the tight-fitting coat.
There is a certain air of distinction-a
cachet-about this garment, es pecially
when it arrays slight youthful figure,
which enables it to hold Its own against
all newcomers, that is when it is the
creation of an artist like Reborn. His
very latest models for the spring of 1891
are made long in the skirts, with or
without the cross seam over the hips,
and they are Ornamented with large

AS the coaching club will soon make
its annual parade, it will then be in
order to while away the afternoon by
long country drives on top of the
coaches. Redfern is now preparing
some very chic long coats, which will be
equally serviceable for travelling use.
Here is one he has just completed for a
young lady to whom the horse show is
the event of the season, and whose
dearest delight is outdoor pastimes.

especially scroll work in borders, are
used. In selecting wall paper IL should
be chosen in accordance with good
taste, and the most important question
to decide is whether it is to form dec
Grafton for itself or whether it is to
become mere background for pic
lures. In either case the colors should
be subdued in tone, and two
shades of light drab or silver-gray will
be found the most appropriate for this
purpose. Where water-colOr drawings
are hung in a drawing room paper of
embos sed white or cream color. with
very small spots of gold, will not be
amiss. The patterns shouldi also be Sc
lected with reference to the place.
Where large part of the wall is to be
presented to the eye a greater play of
line in the patterns may be attractive,
but i'll all other situations the patterns
should be comparatively simple. 1t is
mistake to make the wall paper decora-
lions of the same color as the furniture
Instead of repeating the color of the
furniture and hanglngs it should oppose
it. Contrast is as essential as simplicity
to good taste in household decoration.
In selecting papers for the walls one
should not trust simply to the pattern
books. \ paper that has been ordered
will often look darker or lighter after it
is hung than it did in the pattern-book.
In order to avoid disappointment in
this respect. it is advisable to take sew
eral lengths of the paper and suspend
them side by side on the wall, and no
tice carefully the general effect il has
upon the eye and the room. The leaves
Of certain plants conVentionally treated
are very effective decorative forms.
The ivy, maple, oak and fig leaves are
beautifully adapted to this purpose, and
they come in large and small designs on
wall paper Where two shades of the
same color are employed, and QuietneSS
of effect is especially desired, the over
laid tint should be but very little darker
than the ground; and if drawings and
other things are to be hung upon it the
pattern should be hardly diScernible
from little distance.
The most drearv method of decorating
the wall of a sitting room is to cover it
all over with an ulrelieved pattern of
mOnotonOuS design. Yet many house
wives who are careless about such mat
tiers, or probably do not know the secret
OF the art will do this every spring that
their paper is changed. Paper hanging
should IN no case be allowed to cover
the whole space of a wall from skirting
to ceiling. a plinth space of plain color,
either i'll paper or distemper, shonld be
left to height of two or three feet from
the floor. A light wood molding.
stained or gilded, should separate this
from the paper above, A second space
of frieze. left just below the ceiling and
filled with arabesque ornament, is al
ways effective, but, of course, always
Involves more expense. Gold, when
Judiciously introduced. is always a val
liable adjunct in the design of paper
hangings, but it frequently doubles
and trebies the price of piece.

In the illustration here given the coat
is of smooth-faced cloth in medium
shade OF prune. 1t has jaunty cape
attachment on the shoulder. and this.
like the revers and front corner of the
skirt, is braided in gold and black. The
large buttons are of gold, with design
in black enamel. a full jabot cravat of
heliotrope chiffon, embroidered in black
and gold, gives finishing touch to this
stylish model. 1t IS quite treat, now
that the spring season is full under

L suppose this is owing to the spread of
the true artistic taste in the ranks of the
Four Hundred. People are beginning
TO understand that it is absurd to see the
short woman and the tall woman in the
same style of gown. and that the trying
