Some Fine Property. .

Stranger (to Kansas City citizen)
Those three corner lots of yours
are fine property, captain.
Citizen enthusiastically - Fine
property? Why, great Scott, man,
there amt nothing like EN- west of
the lllinoy river! Two years from
now they'll be in the heart of the
city, an people will fairly howl for
'em. They ought to come under the
head of jewelry, not real estate. If
you want to buy that property,
stranger, you've got to buy it by the
inch.
Stranger-I'm not buying proper
ty this morning. I'm the new tax
assessor.
The citizen falls in q faint.-Har-

The Crawhsh's Tail.

The tail of crawfish serves that
animal as an oar. By q peculiar jerk
of the tail the animal can retire from
a dangerous object with almost in
credible swiftness. The tail is much
more effective in moving the animal
backward than forward, a singular
instance of adaptation to its situa-
ton, for by MEANS of it's tail it can
withdraw into its hole with such
swiftness as in on instant to place
it out Of danger.

PECULIAR ROBBERlEs.
Cabs, Elephants, Wagons and Even Houses
Stolen by Bold Thieve

Cabs, Elephants, Wagons and Even Houses
Stolen by Bold Thieve..
Now and again it happens that a
geRus In crime arises who considers
the ordina,y robbery unworthy of
his abilities, and therefore he goes
in for removing articles of an ex-
traordina-y nature. For. example.
take the man who stole the coffee
stall the other day. It was a nice
coffee stall, replete with urns. Guns
and saucers, plates, knives and
forks and spoons, and good supply
of comestibles, ranging from shop
eggs to Jumps of cake cut with
mathematical precision.
The stall stood before it's owners
home, and behind some old ratings
of iron and wood. The full audacity
of the robbery will be realized on
learning that the thief did not take
down the ratings or even wait for a
suitable time. He just selected
moment when the proprietor was
out of the way. and then took out
the stall at 6 o'clock in the evening,
just as its owner was in the habit of
doing when about to set up his tray
cling coffee shop near large gas
factory a mile OF two away. The
perpetrator of this extraordinary
robbery was detected through the
agency OF friend of the real pro-
prietor who partook of refreshments
at the stall.
Quite recently there have been
two or three cases recorded in the
papers of cab stealing. This we can
quite understand, for horse and
cab are nice little property where
with one can earn a decent living.
But what shall be said of the man
who stole an elephant? This same
elephant escaped from circus pro-
cession that was vending it's way
through the streets of a suburb of
Liverpool. The great animal wan
dered for many miles and eventually
stopped at farm, the proprietor
whereof promptly annexed the valu-
able brute and was foolish enough
to sell it to the next circus propri-
etor that CHANGED to be in the vicin-
ity. The farmers reason for getting
rid of the elephant was the prodi-
gious quantity of food the animal
consumed. We need hardly say that
the whole silly proceeding ended in
the conviction of the farmer, though
he got off with three months impris-
onment.
There are at least two cases on
record of man stealing a house.
One of these was portable CORFU
gated iron structure, which ran on
wheels and belonged to great con-
tractor, whose manager used it as
pay box, while the other was an Or
binary semidetached suburban resi-
dence. How could such a house be
stolen? We'll, the alleged thief sim
ply took possession of it, put him
self in state of siege, and then set
the real owner at defiance. After a
long and most exasperating course
of law proceedings the real owner
recovered his house, and the claim
ant was dislodged.
Horses and vans have been stolen,
of course; SO have whole houses of
furniture, if we may use the term.
The latter unique robbery is worked
in this way: A householder going
abroad will perhaps warehouse his
furniture at some we'll known repos-
itory, and the thieves will contrive
to impersonate him, and in many
cases get possession of the whole of
his household goods. = Amusing

THE people OF Arizona have got
