On Sunday evening last a worsh iper at
the First congregational Church was
stopped by Thomas when but few steps
from that edifice. The stranger was re-
lieved of his gold watch, SO in gold and
some silver change. The thief, pistol in
hand, walked away with his booty.
Then the stranger found his tongue and
yelled "Stop thiefw taking up the chase.

Patrolman Dinan seized Thomas, but the
latter thrust his pistol in the policeman's
face, shook himself free and started to run
again. Two shots were fred at the fugi-
five by Dinan. Patro Imam MCGEE assisted
Nm the chase and Thomas was captured
and dlsarmed.
During his fight Thomas dropped the
gold watch in the gutter. This was recov-
cred. The prisoner attempted to rid him
self of a silk handkerchief in which was a
quantity of black pepper, eyiden tly car

resistance to the footpad's demand.
On the register the prisoner appears as

there was found in the possession OF
Thomas lock of a woman's hair.
Prisoner Thomas does not look like a
sentiment tai person or like one who treas
ures any romantic memory. He is tall,
we'll formed and muscular. with steel-gray
eyes and hardened cast of countenanee.
He is sullen. and the other prisoners in the
cell declare that he is uncommunicative
and will tell little of his past life.
The treasuring up of the lock of
women's hair seems to be the one thing
which links him to bis German home in
Hesse.
