LAREDO, Tex. Nov. 2O.-Catarino

on the Rio Grande frontier amount to

addition to these troops, there are heavy
Carr isons at Monterey and San Luis Pc

which could be made available in less

that the Mexican government is pur-

to Steal.
An apparently respectable woman
was brought recently before police
magistrate, at Paris, on a charge of
stealing about 1000 articles from that
great drapery emporium on the left
bank of the Seine called the Bon
Marche. Such acts of larceny are com
mon enough in Paris, but in the par
ticular case of this delinquent there
were some details which were not alto
gether devoid of novelty. Thus, before
proceeding on pilfering expedition
through the well-stocked departments
of the big bazaar, the woman used to
note carefully down in her memorandum
book the objects on which she had cast
her eyes and which she intended to an
mex.
On the day Of her arrest the detec-
tives discovered her notebook and found
marked in it such items as the follow
ing One pair Of stays for self, twelve
francs, size sixty centimcters; two pairs
Of the best braces for my old man, six
pairs Of the warmest socks for Louis,
several yards Of wool for Lucy's skirt,
and so on. Each and every one of the
objects thus jotted down, together with
numerous others, were extracted from
the leathern bag which she carried.
Her rooms were next searched, and
another notebook was found, and on
the leaves Of which were inscribed. A
