GERS were cautioned to keep sharp look
out for them as 1t was feared that they
would be heard from later In the evening.
In this surmise the police officials were
correct, for shortly after z: 80 O'Clock Sergt.
Louks was notified by Officer Bayley that
a hold up had taken place. The man held
up was known as Thomas Mitchell, but
upon his pension papers there appears the
name of Andrew Mccall. Mccall, who Is
about 75 years old, was handled In pretty
rough manner, feeling the effects OF
sand bag, and having his pockets cut open
by a knife which also lacerated his flesh.
IT was about 1880 o'clock when Mitchell
came out Of John Horrock's saloon on
Broad street, and as he stepped to the
sidewalk he noticed two men, strangers to
him, standing on the opposite side of the
street, and watching his movements in
tently. McColl went down Broad street
and turned into Blackstone street, which
Is dark and lonesome place at all times
of the night.
He noticed that the two men were fol-
owing. He beca me suspicious and hast
ened his steps. The two men did not lose
sight of him. When Mitchell had got well
into the gloom of Blackstone street, the
two men pounced upon him. The tall one
welded the sandbag already mentioned,
and struck him blow that brought him
to the ground. 1t did not make him un-
conscious. The two robbers then pinned
him to the ground.
The short one Immediately whipped out
a knife for the purpose Of Sitting open the
clothing down to the pockets.
The first use of the knife was on the vest.
Then the knife was used to slash the
trousers pocket. The robber was not at
all careful. He not only cut the clothing,
but made Craze about four inches long
on the right thigh. The only thing that
prevented the knife from cutting into the
victims chest, and possibly to the heart,
when the vest pockets were cut out, was
the presence of two lead pencils in the
pockets, which received the force Of the
blow and were badly gashed.
Mccall 10 a veteran Of the Mexican and
Civil wars and draws a pension from both
wars, and 1t IL supposed the strangers
knew this and thinking that he might
have the money about his person wsylaid
him. The only things the highwaymen
got were the pension papers, his handker-
chief, pocket knife and few cents In
change. As soon as the Job was completed
the men disappeared down blackstone
street.
Mitchell hastened back to Broad street
and gave the alarm, and notice was at once
sent to the police station. Sergt. Louks
and Officer Welch Immediately went out
in search of the villains, but could get no
trace of them.
The two men appeared to be Italians, one
of them being tall and wearing grey
overcoat and stiff hat. The other Is short,
but Mccall could not give good descrip-
tion of him.

Especial Dispatch to the TRIBrSE.l

New BEDFORD, April %. Frank II.
Hadley, the unfortunate treasurer of the
Bennett and Columbia Corporations, whose
peculiar financiering has caused 30 much
talk, died this morning at O'Clock at his
elegant residence on County street.
Death was not unexpected. During the
night his temperature reached such point
that life was despairod of, and soon after
daybreak his troubles ended In death.
Gastritis was the cause.
The general opinion is that Treasurer
Hadley was not alone In these peculiar
transactions OF the mill corporations, but
death has sealed his lips.

The Old Hounds Farewell.

An affecting account of the death of
an old hound is given by his owner i'll
The Animal World. Hector was n long
tried and trusted dog, tho leader of a
pack of hounds. The old cog became too
infirm for the field and was left ut
homo when the pack went ont. Year by
year his feebleness grew upon him, bat
he was we'll cared for and passed his
time mainly i'll sleeping beside the
kitchen fire. His long absence from the
hunting field caused his fine, deep toned
note to be almost forgotten. cone aft

ing i'll my room, when suddenly heard
tho splendid note, as thought at tho
moment, of strange hound and lis
tened to hear it again, when, instead of
its being repeated, tho whole pack in
the kennel near my house gave ono
burst, as if i'll full cry, and as the
sounds died away and all was again
hushed i'll stiffness, my huntsman
rushed into tho room. saying i'll an agi-
tated voice. Hector is dead, sir. That
splendid note of what 1 had thought Il
strange hound had been the old dogs

Journalism and the Stage.

The two professions which attract
most young women to New York are
the stage and journalism. On an aver
age ten applications for positions arc
filed every day with tho manager of a
single theater on Broadway, and three
fourths of the applicants are young
women. The managing editor of great
newspaper suffers less, perhaps, from
personal interruption of this sort, from
tho fact that about him is M abatis of
subeditors and question clerks through
which it is almost impossible to pass.
This abatis is II test of the applicants
grit and perseverance, and tho manag-
ing editor knows, without further ques-
ton, that young woman who succeeds
jill reaching his side has qualities that
are useful to the news gettor. In con-
Guiding these remarks contributor to

the qualifications most likely to win a

AN ABLE POLICE HORSE.

He Can Count Up to Six and Perform
Other Feats.
Tho cleverest horse on the New York
police force is Pompey, whose register
ed number on the books of the depart
ment is 1873. Let any horse or police
man who disputes this statement step
forward and prove to the contrary.
Pompey gave an exhibition of his tai
ents for the benefit of The Sunday Jour
nal. Ho can count and understands or
binary conversation. He is, in fact, al
most as intelligent as policeman.
Ho is tho steed and inseparable COM
panion of Roundsman Redmund p.
Keresey Of tho Thirty eighth precinct,
which is i'll the annexed district. Pom
pey is remarkable not alone for his tai
ents; he has also history, which is
full of human interest.
His intelligence developed so rapidly
that Keresey began to teach him few
tricks. He would tickle him under the
right fore leg with straw and say,
"Pompey, give mo your right hand !"
AT first the horse would raise his leg to
avoid the tickling, but soon ho learned
to do the Same thing merely when he
ACo1N tHO WOIQS TlBup nullu.
The same process taught him to offer
his left foot when politely asked to do
so. His education went OH steadily, and
he learned to raise his right or his left
hind leg mt il nero word from his mas
ter. Keresey made tho horse understand
that when he used tho word "papa" in
conversation he referred to himself
Kerescy. Thus the policeman would
say, Give papa your right hand" and
the animal would understand perfectly.
The horses name also was varied occa-
sionally to "Papa's Boy"
An interesting feature of Pompey's
education was the rapidity with which
no acquired knowledge In two weeks
he raised his right foot when told to.
His teacher had fewer difficulties than
most men who train animals. Dogs arc
usually found to be inattentivo and un-
duly exubcrant. Tho superiority of the
horse lies not i'll greater intelligence,
but i'll greater docility.
Tho next stage was to make Pompcy
say Eyes" or mo" A tickling on tho
side of tho neck caused him to move his
head sidewisc. This was accompanied
by the command, "Say no." Finally
tho tickling could DO omitted. A titilla-
ton of his chin taught him to move his
head up and down, which meant yes.
After this Pompey began to learn to
count. A light whip was placed OH ono
of his forelegs near the ground He
raised tho leg to avoid the obstacle
and tapped the ground lightly. Kercscy
ut the Same time said, Count one. ;"
Then he counted one without tho use of
tho whip. This process was continued
until Pompey was ablo to count six,
which is his present state of proficiency.
Say, it's o'clock, time for relief, :"
says Keresey, and Pompcy gravcly
scrapes his fore foot six times on tho
ground.
He takes two steps to the right or left
when told to do so, and III fact has so
many accomplishments that they can
not all be enumerated here. New York
