ABOUT SHOPLIFTING.

In one of the big department stores
Of New York city the throng OF eager
bargain hunters is startled every now
and then by the sharp ringing of a
bell. Sometimes there is but one ring,
again there are two, but the crowd Of
customers ate IA wondering pause
goes on and forgets the occurrence.
The ringing OF the bell means that a
shoplifter has been caught.

The McCook tribune., 1897-03-05

During holiday seasons or when big
bargains are advertised the ringing
summons only the house detective,
who knows that a new offender is sus-
pected and must be taken to the offices
and searched. Two rings summon the
whole corps of house detectives, who
are called to take look at some Old
offender caught red handed with the
goods before the patrol wagon comes
to carry him or her away.

Similar scenes as these are enacted
every day at the big stores in all large
cities, while the tempting shops of the
jewelers. and silversmiths are especial
ly haunted by light fingered customers.
1t is curious, but sedate and quiet Phil
adelphia is notorious for the number
of shoplifters caught there. Philadel-
phians claim, however, that this is not
because there are more thieves in Phil
adelphia, but because their watchmen
and detectives have superior vigilance
1t is said John Wanamaker employs
more detectives to guard his wares
than any other storekeeper in Ameri-
ca, and whenever he sets up new stores
he follows the same rule of employing
a large force of detectives. Shoplifting
and catching the shoplifters has devel-
oped of late years surprisingly and is
due to the growth OF the department
stores
The McCook tribune., 1897-03-05

Shoplifters mostly steal triies. things
they have no use for, but which they
take simply because they are handy,
nobody is looking, and they cannot re-
sist the temptation. A young woman
was caught one day who Wore stout
rubber band for u dress belt. with
pockets hanging to- the belt, and in
them were no less than thirty stolen
articles from the store in which she
was caught and twelve from other
stores. Some of these things were the
merest trash-children' toys, spools q:
thread and bits of ribbon. The theft
of a ten-cent thimhle was detected
and landed her in prison. Many of
the things stolen would never be
missed by the store if they were not
returned By the detectives. 4 large
department store has estimated that
Sc, 900 or $1,000 worth of its goods go
TO thieves every year.

APPRECIATES THE ROAD.

In commenting on the connection of
San Antonio and Stockdale by rail,
owing to the complication of the Gulf
Shore, Editor C. II. Hanson, of the
Stockdale Enterprise, says:
THE complication of the road to
Stockdale is an suspicious event in
the history of our little city of wind
mills, as it will place us in rapid
communication with the great arter,
les of commerce and highways of
metropolitan intercourse. There are
probably very few of our citizens who
now realize the full import of this
movement. There will be hundreds
of people from all sections. who will
visit our town that would never have
done so while we were cut off from
direct railroad communication. This
is an age of steam and electricity and
those who do not utilize these great
factors of transportation and com
munication command but little atten-
ton or respect from the ever restless
, and busy centres Of capital and com
merce. AS soon as il. is generally

ACROSS THE CREEK.
The Present Condition And What 1t
Used To Be.


Used To Be.
The quietude of the west side of the
city commonly known as across the
creek" would suggest that some
wandering reformer had made his adj
vent here.
But he hasn't.
It's only due to the depression of
the money market.
The wave of morality has passed in
to dreamland and San Antonio's ten
derloin district is now more orderly
than evers
Beer joints, gambling rooms and
honkotonks-yes, they are all there
doing business at the old stand.
But what a change has taken place
in the business that these institutions
used to do.
Saloons, where the bar used to be
lined to its full length with men of
healthy appetites, now conduct their
trade by the growler route by reduced
rates.
Poker chips are going at bargain,
but there is no demand for them,
while the high water-mark of Keno
is about ninety-nine-well, it used to
be dollars, but you are now in dod-
gasted big luck to get a ninety-nine
cent pot.
Hacks and honkotonks, like the
bike, have also experienced a fall in
trade.
EVERYBODY is hopeful, however, and
anticipates revival in the fall.
Then everybody will have money
the little ivory ball of the roulette
table will be started off, the goose
will fly, and round and round the
the little ball will go and where it
will stop nobody'll know.
Across the creek will then resume
its attractiveness, which will only be
another illustration why everybody
likes to come to San Antonio.

SIR HENRY IRVING.
The Greatest Living English Actor.)


STUDIES of an actors career-to tell the
truth with no great promise at the
start. Before he was 2l, however, he
was able to get good engagements, and
he appeared with the best companies
both in London and in the provinces.
By 1866 he had earned a high position
as an actor, appearing in leading roles
at the st. James theater in London.
His great successes have been made in
Shakespearean plays, and in the inter-
probation of characters in some of the
best plays written during this century.
His productions of Shakespearean plays
have been, many of them, notable
events, on account of the richness of
the setting and the originality of the
treatment. There is no doubt but that
Shakespeare is now given vastly more
attention both on the stage and in gen.
eral reading circles than he would have
been but for Irving's work in that d.
rection. y
Irving is sympathetic man and pos
sessed of an astonishing CELEBRITY of
thought and changeful emotion. His face
is wonderfully expressive and he uses
every portion of his body in a most
skillful way. In the most hackneyed
parts he has an original view of the
characters he portrays.
