"Yes, riding wheel is great sport, and

pumped away ut the edge OF the pave

This person is in the act OF crossing the
street. lie looks up, sees the rider COM
ing, and stands still right III the middle
OF the street. OF course he is mentally
calculating his chances for getting across
safely. one can see the workings of his
mind in the muscular contortions of his
face.
I'm the meantime the rider is getting
closer aud closer, and is in study equally

American Navy IN the War of 1912

In the war of 1872, the little American
Navy, including only dozen frigates and
sloops OF war, won against the English,
till then the undou bted masters OF the
sea, a series of victories that attracted an
attention altogether out of proportion to
the force of the com batants or the actual
damage done. For $50 years the Eng
lish ships of war had failed to find
fit rivals III those of any other European
power, although they had been matched
against each i'll turn; and when the un-
known navy of the nation, growing up
across the Atlantic, did what no Euro
pean navy had ever been able to do. not
only The English and Americans. but the
people of Continental Europe as we'll, re,
garded the feat as important out OF all
proportion to the material elements OF
the case. The Americans first proved
that the English could be beaten at their
own game on the sea. They die What

QUEENS OF CRIME.

Gang of Shrewd Female Shoplifters Cap
tured at Pittsburg.
PITTsBURG, March 16.-Three of the
shrewdest and most successful female
shoplifters in the country were arrested
by detectives from Allegheny. The
story revealed is almost beyond belief
The women are sisters, Mrs. Celia
Stakely, Mrs. Mary Cohout and l9-year-
old Annie Dennison. The two older
women were arrested in Boggs' store
and when taken to the station 5O-yard
bolt Of silk was found under Mrs. Co
hout's cloak. Search warrants were
searched. A big express wagonload of
silks, dress patterns, two sealskin coats
worth $3.50 each, gloves, laces, fine
shoes, ETC., were taken to the station
house as result of the search. Several
trunks packed ready for shipment were
also found. A large number of express
receipts were discovered, showing that
the fence Of the trio was in some West
ern city, the name of which the police
Refuse to Divulge,
but which is said to be Chicago. One
receipt for $5, 600 worth of goods is only
about week old. The police authori-
ties have telegraphed to have the con-
signees arrested, when the complete
story will be known.
Mr.. Boggs estimates the value Of the
wagonload captured at $4,000 and
says goods worth at least $4,000 more
were left behind because, as yet, they
could not be identified. In Mrs. Co
hout's parlor alone he saw bric-a-brac
worth fully 1880, and her cupboards
were filed with the finest cut glass.
The police authorities claim to have
been on the track of the thieves for the
past eight years, but the women were
so accomplished in their work that not
until now could they bring them down.
During holiday seasons they have hired
extra men for the sole purpose of watch
ing these shoplifters, but it is said that
the women would ply their trade under
the very eyes Of the specials without de-
lection.
