While the great modern livery stable
is provided on every one Of its four,
i've. six stories with every possible con-
trivance for the prompt and efficient
dispatch of business, it's office, also
quite in keeping with modern ideas, is
equipped with everything that can con-
tribute TO the convenience and comfort
of those who have occasion to visit it.
Here, for example, is such an office.
1t is room Of ample dimensions, with
hardwood floor, which is covered with
rugs. Rallied off in one corner
is the desk of the clerk anti
bookkeeper. In another corner il
the desk of the perintendent. In
the best corner, furthest from the
tracks of persons passing to and fro,
by window and so placed that the
light upon it comes from the left, is a
desk for the use of patrons of the
stable. The chairs are leather-covered
and very comfortable. There are pic.
lures on the walls. Lining deep al
cove, which is practically a smaller
room opening from one side of the
Office, are lockers for whips and other
belongings of those whose horses arc
kept in the stable. Standing in the
alcove is brass newspaper rack upon
which are hanging files of all the daily
newspapers, and of the weekly illus.
tratcd papers, and of the journals es-
pecially devoted to the horse. N. Y

ALL The MEN IN CUSTODY
Quick Detective Work in Capturing
the Legation Thieves.
"he Quartette of HOnSebrea kers All
Young and One Was an ex-Em-
ploye-Trial Tomorrow.

The robbery of the japanese legation
Sunday night of $50 in sssoney and several
hundred dollars worth of S2welry, fur
nished the local detective force SS.h an
opportunity to do some quick aud very
effective work, and last night, within
twelve hours after 1t was reported at
police headquarters, all four burglars
were behind the bars of the Third precinct
station-hcuse and had confessed to the
crime. Precinct Detective Barnes, as
sisted by Detectives Weldon aud Horne,
worked up the case
Harry Steward, formerly employed as a
butler at the legation; Charles Steward,
his brother, and Edmund Fields and
William Mullen, two friends, committed
the robbery. The older Steward was
discharged from the legation about three
weeks ago for the theft of $50 from one
of the attaches and knowing the house
go well. he planned the robbery, with
the other three to aid him.
Altogether they succeeded in getting away
with the $50 in United States money, $50
in japanese gold six pairs of sleeve buttons,
fivesets of studs, five pearl pins, two pocket
books, and two watches
When the robbery was reported Barnes
at once suspected the discharged butler
and went to see him at No. 620 New York
he had any knowledge OF the affair, but
finally admitted that, with his brother
and the other two, he did the work. He
was locked up at the station-house, and
with the assistance of Weldon and Horne
the other three We're soon found.
Mullen was employed as an elevator
conductor at the Riggs House, and when
arrested admitted his guilt at once and pro-
duced watch and pocketbook containing
So and a jewel box containing several
sets OF studs, watch chain and a couple OF
charms and pins. Stewart and Fields were
subsequently arrested, both with some of
the goods on their persons, and by 8 o'clock
last night all thenien were in custodyand all
of the stolen goods recovered.
Harry Steward is seventeen years old
and the others are each nineteen. They
DO not seem very much worried over their
quick arrest, and said last night that If they
had been caught in the legation they would
have given the Japs a liveler tussle than
did China. None of them werecver arrested
before and the police know very little
about them.
Their trial win not occur until to-mor-
row in the police court.

A BEAR Up A TELEGRAPH POLE
An Italian of the name Of Gourette,
who lives on the meadows near Ho-
boken and earns his living by
showing the antics Of two train
ed bears, gave an exhibition,
at the corner of First and Madison
streets, Hoboken, yesterday morning.
After getting all the money he could
from the crowd, the Italian offered,
for twenty-five cents, 10 make the
smaller of the bears climb a telegraph
pole.
An interested spectator paid the
money, and the Italian ordered the
bear up the pole, after removing the
chain attached to its iron muzzle.
With much belaboring from long staff
the Italian carried the bear growled
sullenly and started up.
When it reached the top Of the pole
and hung its forepaws over the cross
piece, the Italian yelled fori to come
down again. Then, as the bear didn't
move, the Italian prodded-it -E"pitn the
staff. In its ELECTS to escape the
tthhIaastss frooG.ii below the bear got its
muzzle tangled in the telegraph wires.
1t became frightened, and tried to tear
the wires from their fastening. The
harder it pulled the tighter its nose
stuck to the wires. Finally, exhaust
ed, the bear let go its hold on the pole
and daugled helplessly twenty feet
above the sidewalk.
Fearing that the wires would give
way, the Italian set up yell which at
tracted the attention of several police
men. 1t took the latter nearly half an
hour to get the bear to grab the pole
again. Then, by poking its muzzie
with the end of the stall, the Italian
succeeded in getting it disentangled
from the wires, and the bear slid to the
sidewalk .-Nc,O York Sun.
