LUCK, NOT SKILL.
A Philadelphia Ex-Policeman Relates
Professional Experience.


Policemen sometimes get the credit Of
making a clever capture, when, if the
truth was only known, the capture is the
result of pure blind luck, I" said H. L. De
Witt of Philadelphia. Il used to be on
the police force myself, and had one or
two just such experiences. / remember
one instance very distinctly when l was
complimented by my captain for my PROV
ess in capturing thief, where, had it not
been that the man actually threw his plum
der on me while L was asleep, thereby
waking me up, never would have known
that anything was wrong The beat l
walked at that time was on the outskirts
of the city, and there had been good
many complaints entered by the residents
IN that locality that their chickens were
being stolen. I had tried to catch the
thief, but had so far been unsuccessful.
One night, feeling pretty tired, / walked
around to the rear of a house and seated
myself on log that rested against the
back yard fence.
LAS said before, / was pretty tired and
had not been seated there long before fell
fast asleep. l had not been asleep very
long before I was awakened by heavy
bundle falling on me, and starting up
was a good deal startled at first at hearing
q scrambling noise on the fence top right
above me, and the next minute a big
negro appeared on the top, and without
even taking a look below him dropped
virtually into my arms a more surprised
man than he when he discovered me you
never saw. at once placed him under
arrest, and picking up the bundle that had
SO rudely broken my slumbers found it to
be sack filled with chickens, which the
negro had just stolen. He had wrung
their necks, placed them in the bag and
then threw it over the fence, intending to
get it when he climbed over himself. 1
took him to the station, and he, thinking L
knew all about him and had been watch
ing him, made clean breast OF the mat
ter and confessed that he had been the one
who had committed all she former depre-
dations.. / of course made good case
against him and got a good deal of credit for
my smooth detective work, which bore
with becoming meekness. st. Louis
