windows of the residences burglarized.
Inc articles found IN Slattery'S room and
helly's house have been identified by the
owners of the three houses and the men

the detectives have direct evidence of the
guilt of the prisoners, but they are satisfied

seven other burglaries.

their criminal experiences at very early
age.

DoYLE's RESIGNATION DESIRED.

OCCIDENTAL HOTEL. october 2, 1885.
Dear ar. Il ttU: see from your letter that
MIR. Doyle has written you, but not exclaimed
my objections. In the first place Mr.. Nj urphy
desired 10 appoint my son Daniel one OF the ex-
ecntors. such an appointment would have
been emlnen ~ proper and gratifying. Ii
would have given my son a lucrative employ
ment IL would have shown 10 the business
community the trust and confidence his father
had IN his son. 1t would have given him the
management of importan affairs, legal as we'll
as business. MIR. Doyle opposed ana prevent ed
this instead OF obeying the wishes of Mr.
Murphy.
Again, Mir. Doyle undoubtedly had !nstrue-
tions from MIR. Murphy. In ifnP The Will. TO
provide that Mrs. Murphy should have $4,000
property. and he left undeclared what the
community propery was; and since he has
been executor he has taken advantage of This
omission ana d cl red it to be uncertain whether
or not there Is any community property. He
ought to have the will clear in tbr provision
lor mrs. Murphy by an explicit statement as to
the community property.
Again, 10 has been he duty of Mr. DOYLE, as
executor, TO manage the estate according TO the
wishes OF the heirs (as the creditors. If there
are any, are secure) as far as he could, accord
ing to justice and law. and TO carry out the
provisions Of the will as far as practicable.
Instead of this lie has raised doubIs and diff
cuties as 10 the combination Of the partner
ship of Murphy, Grant & Co. calculated to mis-
lead and annoy Mr.. Grant and to jeopardiZe
the interest OF the estate In the firm. Also his
letter is found In which it appears that at some
former p ROD he incied MIR. Murphy TO harsh
ness toward Mrs. Murphy instead of advising
harmony and c0nciliatlon IN such a delicate
and important matter.
All these and other things justify the asking
OF his resignation, for under such circumstances
be coula not expect 10 have The goodwill OF
the family, and 1t was emneDtly proper that
they should frankly tell him so, and that he
should resign and not continue TO war upon
their interests or the interests of the estate IN
the partnership. Mr.. Murphy told him, evil
IDENTIFY, to provide for the continuation OF the
partnership, and he ought TO have done so and
not left 1t open 10 any legal doubt or difficulty
he can now throw in the way OF IL.

strained from doing so from the fact tn at

Ihey commenced operating in the West
ern Addition about two months ago, when
the hrsI OF about dozen daylight burg
larles was committed.
Their modus operapdi was for one to
go to the front door of house, ring the
bell, and If there was no response ona
went to the rear while the other kept
watch In front. They carried a Jimmy
with them, and the rear door or window
was forced open and an entrance effected.
1t was difficult matter for the police to
get any trace of the stolen property, as
the thieves appeared TO be old hands at
the business and were careful not to dis
pose OF their swag at any of the usual re-
sorts kept by fences.
Detectives Bee and Harper had been
detailed on the case. and after consulta-
ton with Chief Crowley and Captain Lees
the Chief decided to detail officers Murray
and Wren to watch the Mint and two or
three assay offices. as it had been dis
covered that parties had been selling
bullion which had been melted in a crucible.

would be superiluous FOR the purposes Of
this story to give the names of the horses,
their ages, weights or the names Of their
riders. All that remains to say is that
the Hon. Tommy Arden had e20O to
nothing on every horse that started.
Needless to say, only six horses won.
With thirty of his friends Tommy has
condoled and said something about 1.-The
luck of the devil" With six Of his
friends, who believe in him as prophet
ever after to be followed blindly, he has
rejoiced-more especially on the Mon
day, when they each handed him a
check for G2O0, making in all el,e00,
with which he paid out the brokers as
he had promised the agent.
1t is due to his sagacity to say that the
Hon. Tommy Arden only plays this
game three times in each year. Other
men would be more greedy. Tommy
only makes some 1000; but he is con-
tented with this, as he has the love
and respect of his charming wife, who is
one Of the prettiest and best dressed
women in town. In each year he also
makes some eighteen fast friends of the
men to whom he has given the straight
tip which has come off. The, others.
Tommy consoles himself by saying, have
as good chance as any one else, and
they all have their turn sooner or later.
There are a few who, after two or
three experiences of Tommy's straight
tips, have become slightly colder toward
him; but Tommy makes no fuss. He
pays them out by quietly leaving them
out of the next good thing" for the
simple reason that there are always
other good men coming on, all of whom
he makes it his business to cultivate,

MARY JANE.


Ihave thought Of getting married
When I've seen thee, Mary Jane,
With thy dainty silks and satins,
With thy petticoat and train.
But whisper camo across me,
Like a sign with omen rife
. "Ah, tits very well TO marry,
But, OIL canst thou keep a wife2"
, IL the last new bonnet suits thee,
Canst thou wear it still the same,
Though newer pattern tempt thee,
Lately handed down to fame?
Will a dress or two content thee
When stern fashion orders more,
And a solitary headdress do
Instead OF half scorer
But they tell me am raving
To expect 40 strange thing,
And they laugh to scorn my musings
And the hopes to which cling.
So | fear must resign thee
And u bachelor remain,
Yet rever can forget thee.
Oh, too costly Mary janet

A certain cure for freckles is carbolic
acid, and its effects are not only certain,
but quick The skin must first be washed
thoroughly in warm water, and then
dried with soft towel. Each freckle,
or bunch of them, must be dealt with
separately. Stretch the skin with the
fingers, and touch the freckle with a
drop of pure carbolic acid. Allow this
to dry on the skin, and in few minutes
it will burn and grow white. The skin
thus burned will fall off in a week or
so, and leave a new rosy white skin in
place of the freckle. To prevent burns
from being very painful and from leav-
ing bad scar on the skin, the blisters
formed should be pierced with a silk
thread soaked in sublimate solution.
Leave the thread in position while the
outside of the blister is covered with a
10 per cent. solution Of iodoform vase
line. Fresh salve should be applied
daily, and no pain will be experienced,
and severe contraction and wrinkling
of the skin after the wound is healed
will be prevented Yankee Blade.

to quiet it. As had never had much ex-
perIence with babies, | found myself in
pretty tight place. / had no milk to give
the baby, so l mixed a little -four and
water till it looked like milk. and got
little of it down the baby's throat. Then
l shook it on my knee till it dropped
asleep. l put il in my bed, intending to
go out and find some woman who would
come and attend to it, when heard the
dog barking, and on opening the door saw
his tail disappearing down the street, sad
saw that he had left another infant on the
door mat.
The first baby was a saint in compare
son with this one, which was q sort OF in.
fantile tramp in appearance, and was as
noisy as it was dirty. 1t would not have
anything to do with the -four and water,
and though shook it on my knee till |
must have ioosened all it's organs, it re-
fused to 60 to sleep. So l finally gave II q
rubber overshoe to bite on and put it in
bureau drawer in the spare room, and told
it to howl its head off if it felt that such
was its duty toward mankind. ThenI
started a second time to search for 8
woman, and nearly fell over third baby
on the doorstep. That internal dog had
brought il while was struggling with the
infautile tramp, and he was now Of

this one up in q blanket and then sat
down on the doorstep with III, resolved

lock him up till I could get enough babies
off my hands TO give me a chance to kill
him. l was bound not to miss him. forif
l did he would probably keep on till he
had brought me all the babies in the
country. This baby was the best of the
lot, for 1t slept in my arms without say

sire to be shaken. In about twenty min.
