STOLE THE WATCH.
Anton Deipsch Minus His Silver Watch and
Gold Chain.

Anton Deipsch Minus HIS Silver Watch and
Gold Chain.
Another sneak thief has made his pres
ence felt in the neighborhood, and the
barefaced manner in which 1t was done is
amazing. Anton Deipsch and his wife live
in the Pinkham estate, which is situated
near the corner Of Cross and High streets.
Mr.. Deipsch has a silver watch which he
values very much on account Of memories
attached to 1t, and for that reason he was
in the habit of leaving 1t at home, hanging
on nail in the bed room. Yesterday
morning while Mrs. Deipsch was in the
rear of the house sitting ashes, some light
fingered person made away with it.
The watch was not missed until about
six o'clock last evening, when upon going
to get the watch to wind it up he found
that it had disappeared. No satisfactory
explanation of the affaif could be made
unless someone stole into the house by the
front entrance while Mrs. Deipsch was
sitting the ashes. The watch was of the
Ohio make, and the front case was screwed
on. Attached to the watch was a gold
chair. The case was reported to the police
department, and is now being investigated

TIM DOOLEY ASSOCIATION.

Popular West Side Club Held Their
Animal Installation.
Alarge and enthusiastic meeting of the
Tim Dooley Association Of the West Side
was held last evening, the occasion being
the election of a president to fill va
cancy and the installation of the full board
of the full board of officers. Edward
Burns was elected president, and upon
taking the chair thanked the members for
the confidence shown in elecsing him to
such an important position. He assured
the members that 1t would be his aim to
work zealously for the best interests Of the
association. An unusual honor was con-
ferred upon Alexander McGunagle, by his
election to the position of treasurer for
life.
After the business meeting the full
board of officers was installed. A special
code of installation exercises was impro-
yised for this occasion, and 1t Is needless
to say that they fully met the expectations
of the members. In fact, some Of the
officers have not yet recovered from the
ordeal through which they had to go.
Songs and recitations filed up the balance
Of the evening, each one trying to Guido
the other In their efforts to make the
meeting pleasant remembrance. Refresh
ments were served during the evening, and
1t goes without saying that this part Of
the program was very popular with the
boys.

Mr.. CARPENTER TALKS.

If Possible.

He Would Like to Recover the Watch
If Possible.
Mr.. Carpenter, the victim of the late
robbery by Neal Williams, was inter-
viewed last evening by a TRIBUNE re-
porter, and expressed much qualification
at the capture of the alleged burglar. He
said that he would like to recover the
watch il possible. He BELIEVES, under the
circumstances, that 1t will be impossible
to locate the balance Of the goods as Will
liams destroyed or threw away the, pawn
tickets. He said that he had about 500
worth of diamonds which the nght an
gered young man did not get posses-
sion of. ~ at
It has been ascertained that Williams
put up at the American House In Mans
field, Mass, that night, and according to a
confession made to Sergeant Loul0, was
terribly disappointed when he found he
did not have Mr.. Carpenters diamonds
After making the circuit from Boston to
New York and back, he got cleaned out OF
money on Sunday last, and rode to this
city on a freight train, arriving in this
city early Monday morning, since which
time he has been sleeping i'm Mathewson's
stable.

Mrs. Pendergrass attended Miss Austin
throughout her sickness, and the constant

A TORNADO OF FLAME.
The Swift aud Tragic Burning Of the
Steamer Martha Washington.

The Swift aud Tragic Burning OF the
Steamer Martha Washington.
A steamer called Martha Washington
left the Cincinnati docks late in the night
of Jan. z, 1862. She was heavily freighted
with a cargo consigned to New Orleans
and the markets Of Texas and California.
In her cabin were 80 passengers. When
seven days out, ON the coldcst night known
to rivermcn she burned to the waters
edge off island Sixty five, In the Mississip
pi river. Despite the loss of 16 lives, to.
gether with the cargo, the catastrophe ex-
cited no moro comment at the time than
many like disasters. In time, however, the
captain and others were charged with burn
ing the boat to secure insurance. In O
famous trial they were acquitted, but be-
lief In their guilt remained general.
On the witness stand is the pilot, Low
Is Choate. II was at the wheel when the

Captain Cummings was with me In the
pilothouse. I remarked that smclled
fire. The captain looked about and said
there was no fire. He went down stairs
however, and Immediately the flames broke
out. %
II stood at the wheel until line was
made fast to tree. There was no person
alive In the cabin when the boat struck

flames roared like tornado. I jumped

that there was no fire the flames flashed 10
