lately free access to the stock of two
tradesmen on Exchange place, Jersey

When the building was put up q

eventually fitting it with steam pipes
to heat the building the tunnel openel

a little gang of street arabs espiel
the hole in the ground ana explored it
for the quarter OF a mile or more Of its
length, and learned that it atforle
easy access to the jewciry and cigar
stores. And the little fellows hal
been helping themselves nightly to
whatever they coveted in both places.

The boys might have continued their
nightly visits through the under
ground tunnel indefinitely if one of
their number hal not thought the
scheme too good Il one to keep to him
self. He began to boast about the
treasures that the tunnel pla at MS
disposal, and the story reached the
ears of Policeman Ricberich Tho re-
suit was the arrest of six of the boys
who were reveling in what they de
scribed as lone of the softe5t snaps. .

At Norristown. Ne, w B. Logan, a
horseshoer, made nine miniature
horseshoes from the metal contained
II one silver dime. Each shoe has the
number OF holes usually found in
horseshoes OF the ordinary size; but,
strange to say, the smallest cam brio
needle is too large to be used as nails
in these miniature wonders. Logan
has made affidavit that every one of
these tiny silver crescents was made
with the same hammer and pan.h
