HE WAS A FINDER.
(From Tid-Bits.l

To any one acquainted with the com
pick characteristics of London life, it
would appear almost incredible that a
man could make a living as a pick
pocket by Immediately restoring what
he has stolen to its original owner.
A detective officer, however, has re-
Gently informed the writer that such,
indeed, is the case. For some time past
an ingenious individual has made it
his business to wait upon ladies as they
leave theaters, calling their carriages
and aiding them to enter He is de-
Gently blessed, very polite, and has a
way of holding up the lady's dress be-
hind-especially if the weather be wet
which is particularly pleasing to his
patronesses.
But it seems that his action in this
respect is not merely so disinterested
as it might appear for he makes this
little courtesy a subterfuge for picking
their pockets or removing any article
of value within reach. His methods,
however, are not those of the common
thief, for he presently proceeds othe
police station nearest at hand and there
delivers up his spoil, cody stating that
he has found it" outside a certain the
alter. He of course, furnishes also his
name and address, and in due time his
honest" action receives it's reward. He
has found SO many things recently
that the police are anxious to find
him.

NO ELECTION.
Republican Club VIII Try it Again in Two
Weeks.

The recently organized Republican
Club of Worcester held a meeting at
republican headquarters last evening
for the purpose of electing a board Of
officers. The adjournment at the last
evening was for this specific purpose,
but after two hours debate. it was de-
cided to postpone action for two weeks.
At last evenings meeting Henry E.
Whitcomb, the president of what was
formerly known as the Young Mems
Republican Club, of which this club is
a growth, presided, and A. George Bus
by acted as secretary.
After some discussion a committee
of five, consisting of Edward D. Gun
ningham, c. Herbert DeFosse, Chef
wood Smith, Edward A. d. Moss and
Daniel p. Shea, was appointed by the
meeting TO select a list of names of can
didates for each of the executive offices
and also several names for members Of
the executive committee in each ward.
This committee is to report at a meet
ing of the club to be held at the same
place, November %.
1t is the intention of the club to secure
some prominent leader of the party to
preside over its destinies; some man
who has had experience in administra-
tive office, and who is willing to under
take the position with the view of max

politics.

FACE TO FACE WITH DEATH.
Arctic Explorer Greedy Tells of His Res
cue by Capt. Schley.

General Greedy, in the Ladies'
Home Journal, tells for the first time the
details of his awful winter at Cape Sa
bine. Eighteen of his party of twenty
four Arctic explorers had persisted from
cold and starvation, when Captain (now
AdmiraD Schley, heading a relief party,
rescued the survivors in the nick of time.
Summer crept slowly on, but food came
grudgingly," writes Gen. Greedy. Each
worked to the end and even on the very
morn none ever knew that death would
that day touch him. One after another
passed, and when a mighty midsummer
gale from the south broke our hitherto
uninterrupted scientific observations,
there were left seven wanAspectors. There
was not the physical strength to raise
the wind-str1ck tent and the end was in
sight. Was it to be life or death? 1t was
foolish to hope, for even now did not the
midnight sun, that marked midsummer,
from that very day June 21sD leave us
with coming winter in utter darkness?
Had we seven who were left gone through
all those 278 days of suffering amid those
icy scenes for naught? But for all that
there was a strong faith that this gale
must favor the American ships that must
be working northward through the ice.
And this faith in country turned TO real
ity forty hours later, when our nations
sailors Wed in tender offices and sympathy
for their comrades of the army, thus
saved from DEATH"
