ONE DANGER OF SHOPPING,

| Expert Thieves Always on the Outlook
for Badiy-Gusrded Pocketbooks-
The fine parlors and waiting-rooms
( which are now TO De found in the big
dry goods stores have been put to a
( peculiar use by the pickpockets and
sneak thieves that make the stores
their stamping ground, says the New
York Sun Recently the porter in one
of the Fourteenth street stores found a
pocketbook in one of the waste baskets
in the ladies parlor. When opened at
the superintendent desk il was found
to contain a check for fifty dollars and
q number of little trinkets. The super
intendent hunted up the address of the
person to whom the check was made
payable and wrote To her. She came
down the next day and proved her
ownership of the property. Hardly
day passes without our porters finding
rifed pocketbooks in the ladies par
lor," said the superintendent OF the
store, land, although we have a de-
tective on guard large part of the
time, it seems impossible 10 catch the
thieves The fact Is that the really ex
pert pickpocket and sneak thief who
works the dry goods stores will take
nothing except cash and valuable
jewelry. He viii not take the risk OF
detection which the ordinary thief
does Checks, trinkets and small arti-
cles Of no special value the expert thief
throws away.
They rarely examine their booty In
The same store in which they steal il.
Take the pocketbook of this woman,
for instance. She was not in our store
at all on the day that the pocketbook
was found here The pocketbock was
taken from her at . swell store up
town. The thief evidently FASTENED
away as soon as the theft had been
committed, came down here and exam
tned the pocketbook, took out the cash,
which, I believe, amounted 10 SIXTY or
seventy dollars. and threw the rest
into the waste basket. Of course, all
these expert thieves are women Under
their present system their operations
are very successful. The ordinary thief
goes around grabbing here and there,
and waits until he mas collsred all the
SLeZl1Cts things IN SlEuE- ne Chances
are nine out Of ten that he viii be de-
tected before he finishes That shows
the superiority Of the expert crooks

MRS LEASE PAINTS.
While Trying TO Exeuss the PopulIst State Ad-
min stra ion.

The family of Mrs. Lease in this city wa:
greatly excited yesterday by receiving d
telegram from Silver Lake announcing he
fact that Mrs Lease was lying in Il Rrecar-
ious condition at that place having been
overcome with heart failure while at
tempting to deliver a speech at Silver
Lake near Topeka. Mr.. Lease at once tel
egraphed to Mr.. Snow for full particulars
OF the affair, aud at 4:30 2. N. received the
following:
She recovered in thirty minutes and
finished her speech"
Ii appears that at the time Mrs Lease
was asked TO explain the Kansas City mat
ter, and as the story now aioat was orig
inally given to the public By herself dur
ing The time her and Governor Leweliine
We're having their battle, the propouuding
/ of the question appeared TO confuse her
very much.
At the time referred to Mrs. Lease made
the open charge that L-welling, Close,
! Chase, Little, Briedenthal and Kline Were
all in the deal, aud she had written a let
( ter to prominent knight of Labor at Sill
yer Lake, Shawnee county, Kansas The
letter Was in the audience, and its pres
ence was made known to Mrs. Lease before
she began 10 deliver her speech. She asked
TO see the letter, but the man, John ID.
BuTrls, would not deliver the letter, but
on the question being pTopounded her
usual effroutery was overcome. When
she resumed her speech she did not again
refer TO the Kansas City business
There Is something pecniar about this
fainting business of Mary Elizabeth Lease
Ii was reported Yesterday that while deliv-
ering an address at Willard in Shaw
county she was overcome by iainting
spell, aud was unable 10 resume her adj
dress for a half hour. GA both occasions
the malady has overtaken her, Wien qGes-
toned as TO the acts of the present admin
istration. Taking the occurrences of the
past two days, together with Mrs. Lease :
avowed determination OF continiug her re-
marks only to national issues, aud fighting
shy of all state issues, the happenings of
the past few days are certainly significant
Mrs. Lease has engagements to speak In
Kansas until Oct. 20 when she will leave
tor Missouri, where she will continue her
canvas putil the election

STUDY OF MUSIC.
The Beginner Should Have Capable
 Musician as Teacher

In one of her works Miss Muloeh gives the following excellent advice on the study of music: If music Is studied at ell, it ought to be studied thoroughly and from the very first Parents are apt to think that anybody can teach child, and that any sort of piano Is good enough for child to practice on No mistake can be moro fatal A child who is fit to be taught at all should be taught by a capable mu- sician, with intelligence enough to make the groundwork not merely superficial, but solid, and not only solid but interest," ing. A great deal of the preliminary study of music is not at all interesting unless the teacher thoroughly understands and takes the trouble to make the child under stand the infinite and complicated beauty of the scheme of harmony in opposition to the dullness of mere strumming.
 Then the little soul, should there be musical soul, will soon wake up, will com prehend the why and the wherefore of the most wearisome of scales and the hardest of exercises and conceive an ambition not merely to ''play piece" but to become true musician. And here let me enter passionate and indignant protest against the habit which i'll conditioned guests in- dulge in and weak hostesses permit of talking during music--a solecsln in good manners and good feelings which, when ever it is found, either in public or in pri- vate, should be put a stop to, firmly and remorselessly.
 If people do not like music they need not listen to it. They can go away. But any person who finds himself at concert or in a drawing room where music is go- ing on and does not pay it the respect of silence-total silence-is to be severely reprimanded. And whosoever, in any pub lie room, sits by and does not remonstrate against such behavior, or in private room connives at and submits to it, is- let me put it in the mildest form-a very weakminded and cowardly person.

A FAD FOR TATTooS.
Collecting In His Own Body Specimens of
 the Art From Everywhere.

Collecting In His Own Body Specimens of
 the Art From Everywhere.
 I heard recently of an unusually odd wealthy Portsmouth man, who married an actress once familiarly known in Bos- ton. He is collector of tattoos. The ex- hibits are all on his own body, and l am told-it is only matter of hearsay-that the collection is very rare. He is d con- noisseur on the various kinds of tattoos, the methods of the tribes that wear them and their history. A new tattoo Is as fas- chatting to him as first edition or bit of Egyptian glass that has survived the art to make it. Only short time since he heard of tribe in central South America which owned a tattoo of which he had never heard before, and he started post shaste for the interior of the southern half sof the western continent and returned Owith the tattoo in his possession.
 It surely has the claim of being an origi- snal fad, and it Is one in which the col lector is not likely to have many rivals. Moreover, it is a collection of which no one and no thing can rob him. It cannot be stolen; it cannot be auctioned by his creditors; envy cannot seize upon it, nor exports malign.- It costs nothing to keep it. requires DO insurance. Of course as an investment one cannot claim anything . for it, but it has the advantage of being pursued for its own sake and not in any spirit that can be mistaken.-Boston Jour- nal

A BOLD SNEAK THIEF
Eaters South Highlands Residence While Dance Is in Progress
 and Makes a Raise.

While a dance was In progress at the res- idence of MT. T. H. Motion, on the South Higlands, last Thursday night, sneak thief entered the hall and carried away the hats and overcoats of the young men present. As a result they had to return home through the cold north wind that was blowing and the falling snow minus those necessary articles of wearing ap- parel.
 The young men were very much put out by this unkind act of the unknown indi- vidual of evil propensities, but bowed to the inevitable and made out the best they could under the circumstances.
 This is probably the bodest burglary that has yet occurred in Birmingham, A large crowd ofyoung people being present at the time.
