LITTLE GIRL BURGLARS.



NEW YORK, Aug 4.-For some weeks
past the police have received complaints Of
robberies committed I'm the neighborhood
Of Third avenue and Seventy-nfth street

Cleverly was the work done, and 40 readily
did the thieves escape detection that three
flats were looted of jewelry to the value Of
over 5000 within the space Of three days.
A dozen other fats were robbed Of less
amounts. The other day the police were
Bstounded after getting clew to find that
Che thieves were two young girls. De
teCtives found that Kate Reynolds, aged
15, daughter Of a respectable iceman, and
PHILIPPINE Cooney, aged l3, daughter of a
well to do widow, had pawned a number
OF articles The two girls were arrested
for the robberies and confessed that they
had committed them. They watched fats
until they saw the tenants 60 cut and
would then enter the apartments by means
Of false keys or by the fire escapes.

Hermann, the Magician.

Hermann, the Magician, tells in the
December Cosmopolitan something
not too much about his marvels of
jugglery, and a good deal-considerably
more-about the tricks of other presti-
digitateurs. He speaks of the ever
growing interest in these tricks, which
has not died out with the departure of
witches and broomsticks. Indeed. Mr..
Hermann himself, with his own the
ater snugly filled nearly every night, is
sufficient proof that an age of science
and realism still produces people who
are pleased to have white rabbits with
pink eyes distracted from their ears
and to see lusty fowl and indubitable
dishes of water and gold fish produced
from handkerchief. But, far from
being conservative, the art of magic
must, if we are to believe Mr.. Herr
mann, constantly keep up or rather in
advance of it's time.
"a sO-called magician, more than a
poet, must be born with a peculiar apti-
tude for the calling He must first of
all possess a mind of contrarieties,

An End to Legal Murder.

The news has gone out from the cap
itol at Albany that determined
effort will be made this winter to have
the Legislature repeal the section of
the Penal Code relative to the inhiction
of the death penalty and to adopt
life-imprisonment as the severest
penalty to be inflicted for murder
in the first degree" 1t is also said
that ''SOme of the. strongest advO-
Gates of the abolition of the death pen
atty are returned to the Legislature
this year and that it is intimated by
those who are pressing the matter that
Governor Flower is not averse to it's
adoption, but, in fact, favOrs it. The
bill to be proposed this winter will
also take from the Governor the power
of pardOning, allowing pardons to be
granted only by the courts, upon the
presentation of new and extenuating
evidence"
The State spent almost $4,000 in
erecting plants in the various prisons,
by which electrOcutiOnS are now con-
Quoted, and this money will, of course,
be wasted. The prevailing mode of ex-
ecutiOn by electricity was adopted by
the Legislature of 1890. after careful
consideration.
The same humaN spirit that moved
the Legislature to abolish the gallOws
will now probably be the means of
doing away with that other kind of

A United People.

1t will be fortunate day for the
United States when there shall be an
end of classifying citizens by hyphena-
ted prefix, as German-Americans,I Irish
Americans, etc. and when the plain
designation. of American citizen. with
the dignity and privilege thereby i'm
piled, shall answer every purpose and
be accepted with satisfaction by all as
the fitting mode of expressing the char
acter of freeman in a free country.
The importance of cultivating homo
geneity among the population of our
republic has often been insisted upon
in these columns. The conditions with
us growing out of immigration have no
counterpart in any other country. and
the reasons for influencing the assimi-
latiOn of the representatives of diverse
natiOnaiti who seek homes among us
are of the most serious nature, invoi-
ing as they do the future peace of the
republic and possibly the security and
perpetuity of free government Relig-
iOuS bigOtry is the chief impelling force
to national alienation and claniShness
in this country. The narrow spirit is
fOStered and stimulated in the ecclesi-
astical interest under the impression
that it is requisite to sustain clerical
influence and organic religious growth
This idea is the true source of our dual
common school system, with the unjust
double tax it imposes upon certain
Lutherans of German origin, and upon
such Catholics and Episcopalians as
submit to it. The arrangement is need
less and wrong, detriment to the
children who are drawn into it and the
strongest adverse influence to the
growth of American nationality and
patriotic assimilation. Sectarianism
has been growing instead of decreasing
and will inevitably lead to trouble if
not thwarted in time.-Rocky Mountatn

must be original and quick -witted,

possess, in no small degree. a knowledge
of the exact sciences, and he must
spend a lifetime in practice, for in the
profession its emOluments come very
slowly. All this is discouraging enough,
but this is not all. The magician must
expect the exposure of his tricks soon

long months of study and time to per

that it plainly shows: That with their
instruments of war, hOwsOever rude,
and their cunning military science, they
have left record that every letter is

fell by their hands. War means the
destruction of life and property; and
history will record it, and give credit to
the ones that have gained the victory.

Devotion may be very beautiful
and noble trait in women. But what
most women need is less devotion and
more sense. Devotion to decent,
weIl-intentioned but unfortunate man
in adversity is all very beautiful and
wOmanly, and well enough, no doubt.
But devotion to dishOnOred noble, or
to brutal, drunken lover, isn't devo-
tiOn at all. It's mere sickness, and
deserves about as much respect as the
same quality in crab or a porous
