THIEF IN BROADCLOTH
Caught While Ransacking Rooms in
Paris House.

A tenant of one of the finest apart
ment houses of the Rue de la Bien-
faisance, noticed that the door lead
ing to the rooms occupied by we'll
known Paris club MANN. Mage-WaS
open, although he knew that his neigh
Dor had left town to be gone for some
time, says the Philadelphia Record.
He entered, and saw man in fault
less attire, a white flower in his but
tonhole, busy opening bureau drawers
valuables he could find. The observer
burglar was taken in the act. At the
police station he gave his name, that
of a noble Polish family, and claimed
as his residence house in the Avenue
des Champs Elysees, in the most fash
ionable quarter of Paris. In the elegant
rooms which he occupied a full kit of
burglars tools were found, and, among
other things, there was a complete
list of wealthy Parisians. club mem
bers and families, who at the present
time are away from town, and whose
houses furnished an excellent field Of
operatio for the well-dressed burglar.
Some twenty years ago a series of
burglaries. committed by band Of
thieves dressed in the heighth of
fashion, excited considerable attention
in Paris, and when the gang was at
last caught the surprising fact came
out that some well known society men
and sons of the best families of Paris
composed the band of robbers 1t ap,
pears that this class of thieves has
not entirely died out.

AN AGED FIDDLE.
And q Fine Instrument Owned by a
JaiIer at HUNTINGTON, w. Va.

Jailer Phil Higgins CT the city Jail, un-
doubtedly possesses the Oldest violin to be
found in this section, says the Huntington
CIV. Va) Herald. The piece has been known
for many years in Southern Ohio as one of
the finest IN the country, but it only
recently that its great age began TO attract
attention. By looking through the sound
holes one can clearly discover the name of
the manufacturer and the date of its make.
The former, however, has few letters de-
faced so that it cannot fully be made out.
The latter is perfectly plain and shows that
it was made in 1749, it now being 14S years
old. The instrument is in a perfect state
of preservation, barring the fact that the
varnish has corroded slightly and needs re-
polishing.
The musical jailer got hold of it a few
days ago and is extremely vain of it. He
has been newly stringing it and you may
depend that Christmas" 1.-The Arkansas
Traveller "Natchez-Both On and Under
the Hill" *'Possum Creek" Dan Tucker"
and those other old-time airs are being rem
dered after a manner to transform the cells
in the city Jail to places of delight.

STRUCK AND KILLED
BY Lightning While Praying fer
Protection From the Storm.

During a fierce thunder and electric
storm last night Stanislaus Torbach,
aged fifty-two years, met death in a
peculiar manner. Torbach has always
been in mortal dread when a storm
sprang up, and last evening he left
his companions in the kitchen of his
boarding house to seek solace in prayS
er While the storm ragged, says the
Hazelton Penn.) correspondent Of the
Chicago Chronicle. He went upstairs
and knelt near window. The collier
whistle blew an alarm about that time
and he put his hand to the curtain to
lcok out.
Just then a flash of lightning shot
from the heavens. 1t shattered the
window sash and sill and Torbach fell
over dead. His fellow boarders who
saw him were so horrified they did not
go to him for some minutes and then
they found a corpse. A black mark
on his side was the only trace Of the
shock discernable. None of the other
men in the house felt the shock. nor
was the building burned beyond the
window sill.

That the 500 company does not in

shown by the fact that the company
