MANCHESTER, Eng, Nov. a.
There was something very human in
a charge of stealing a doll preferred
against n child at Brighton police court
yesterday. The small occupant Of the
dock was only s years old. and her
name was Rose Coleby.
When passing a toy shop the other
day Rose espied doll displayed out
side the fancy bazar I'm a manner most
attractive.
The child's weakness for dolls was
not proof against the sudden tempta-
ton. She passed and repassed, and
sun returned to feast her eyes on the
waxen beauty, and, at last. unable to
resist any longer. she snatched it up
and fed.
The shopman, however, was on the
alert. and Rose and the doll were soon
parted.
The case aroused considerable curl
osity and amusement at the local court,
but matters took a more serious turn
when it was intimated that there was
another charge against Rose of pur-
loining a watch. on that account the
child was remanded for further inQui-
ries.

HIS ENGLISH RECORD.
Muller Declared I'm London That He
Had Butchered Four Thousand
Persons.
(By Anglo-American Press)
LONDON, Nov.

CBy Anglo-American Press)
LONDON, Nov.
Some time in March, 1S9S there land
ed at Dover a German matchmaker
named Gustav Muller. He came from
India, travelling somewhat leisurely,
through France. on his way to this
country. When he arrived in London,
toward the end of March, he was pen
niless, or nearly so. The slender re-
sources he may have had in his pos
session We're soon exhausted, and one
night he was found wandering in
Southwark by Police Constable Ridg-
way, 13 NJ. r., who took him to the
workhouse in Mint street, Borough.
This happened on the 30th, of March
of the said year.
In due course Gustav Muller, who,
strange to say-coming as he did from
India-professed neither to understand
nor to speak word of English, came
under the observation of the worllhouse
doctor. who very soon came to the con-
clusion that the man was of unsound
mind. He walked about the yard in a
5azed manner. talking to himself all the
time and he told the doctor some ex-
traordinary tales. He had, he said,
murdered his father and mother, his
wife and children. At other times he
proclaimed himself a wholesale slaugh-
terer, having butchered no less than
four thousand persons. The police. Null
Ter added. were at last on his track and
wanted to kill HIM.
Sent to an Asylum.
There being no doubt as to the mans
insanity. the necessary certificate for
his removal to a lunatic asylum was
procured, and on the 18th Of April, 1898,
Gustav Muller was taken, in the usual
way. to the London County Lunatic
Asylum, at Banstead, in Surrey
From INQUIRIES made there yesterday
