The Professional Thief.

The professional criminal is hope
less. "A good thief"-as tho police
phrase it-does not steal to relieve
bis poverty. Possibly he has a hoard
hid away somewhere, but at all
events he has money in his pocket.
Otherwise his "pals" would distrust
and avoid him as being dangerous
man to work with, If he prospers
at his calling, success only whets
the zest with which he pursues it.
When he is caught and put away"
for term, the incident is to him
what bad fall is to fox hunter.
Possibly he may find honest employ
ment on discharge from prison, but
before many months olapse the old
restlessness and love of adventure
become too strong, and he resumes
his Legitimate calling" He gen.
orally resumes it Immediately he re-
gains his liberty. = RlaNtwond' "a

Appearance OF the New Woman In Early
Ohio Politics.
The businesslike elections Of today
would have been regarded as tame
and spiritless affairs a generation
ago and even more so twogenerations
ago. Elections are now attended as
matter of public business, duty
of citizenship, and the majority of
electors are glad when the duty is
discharged. Our grandfathers re-
garded a campaign, particularly q
presidential campaign, as a joyful
privilege as we'll as an imperative
duty.
Forty or fifty years ago the man
who refused to got out and "holler
for his man" was not worth consid-
ering in the light of patriotic citizen
ship. 1t was tho era of the barbecue,
the public hurrah and too frequent
ly the fistiouff. Not little of the
enthusiastic display was the work
of women and girls, and these often
became more intensely bitter than
the men. One case as far back as
the campaign of 1874" shows the
willingness of patriotic women to
help the cause along.
In southern Ohio county the
"big meeting so common to all
campaigns was advertised to be hold
ut the county scat At these meet
ings it was usual to offer prize for
the largest delegation, or the most
unique parade, or some other fea-
ture, in order to engender u rivalry
in the townships; hence tho "40
horse team" or the great OK wagon,
with its two dozen "yokes," was
usually somewhere i'll sight on the
day of parade.
The citizens who crowded the
mud sidewalks were startled with
great swapping of whip, stentorian
"gees" and "haws" and "ya-a-
backs," proving that the climax
was approaching The great wagon
came numbering along, and soon the
singing of female voices fixed the
attention of the spectators upon
what was an illustrated volume of
woman's interest in politics. Upon
a long wagon, seated on either side,
with their backs together, wero
seemingly a multitude of girls or
young women, rugged, red checked
lasses. All wore dresses reaching to
the knees, but not shoe or stock
ing in the entire load Instead, the
somewhat sturdy limbs and feet
were painted "A dazzling carmine red,
and these, swinging in tho sunlight,
rendered an effect so weird as to be
almost startling.
AS tho oxen waddled farther along
some enthusiastic Polk man disoov- |
ercd that the shapoly limbs were
stained with pokeberry juice, and
cheers for Polk and Dallas rent
tho air. twas picture of the new
woman in politics that would startle
tho most daring ngitator of today.
But it was tho spirit of the times.--
