ticc- of the Peace.
A good story is told by the New Yorl,
sun of the adventure of thrc. police
justices and detective employed by
one of the societies whose operations
nre intended to brace up the law. Il
seems that shortly before the holiday
season began man who had been
active in politics for many years died,
leaving his family almost wholly I'M
provided for. His home had been hand.
somcly furnished, and the widow, com
pclled to move into NOR. economical
quarters, determined To sell the heavier
articles Of furniture. Three members
of the board of police justices took "a
hand in the sale. Among other devices
for helping their friends widow WIS u
rafile for her grand piano. The JUS
tices organized the friendly enterprise.
promoted the sale Of tickets, and when
u sum representing the value of several
such pianos had been gathered In, they
hupcrintended the drawing.
This took place one evening la iiar-
lem store. That wns whcrr the detect
i've came in, though some people arc
bold enough to say that l, was Com
stock himself. Al all events, the
guardian Of morality, whatever his
name, thought h. saw chance for u
grand coup, and accordingly descended
upon the store, made his way through
the interested crowd, and formally ar
rested III. three justices for conducting
lottery. The detective might have
