PICkPOCKETS AT CIRCUSES.
In the Old Days the LiSht-Fingered
Men Made Good HauIs.


From the Chicago Inter Ocean,
Since Addie Forepaugh has retired
from the show business big nit show
grafters have had a hard run for their
white alley" said well-known detective
as he strolled into the Palmer House bar
with a few wise ones yesterday.
"Shows on the road to-day resemble a
Methodist revival tent, as compared with
1890 During these years there were
twenty professional pickpockets who fol-
lowed the Forepaugh aggregation, all on
a still hunt for grauch pockets. Among
these experts was Windy Dick, who man
aged the combination. For two entire
seasons Windy Dick paid $500 day for
protection. The gang had a railway coach
of their own. and was furnished transpor-
Iation without charge. The whole lot
lived in royal style. During the parade
the streets and stores were looked after,
and it was almost an impossibility to ar
rest a member of the gang. They would
split up and cover the retreat of a fell
low-pickpocket to perfection. During five
seasons not a member was left in the
hands of local police.
1.-The richest graft was the inside tent
work while the show was going on. In
der the seats were each and every one of
me gang. w men the boy Crying pednutS
or ice-cool lemonade noticed a particu-
larly fine spark or Sudden chron, he
would give the office to the man on the
ground below, and a hundred to one the
tip went. Every man, woman and child
was in reality at their mercy, George
Arthur, then a mere lad, would average
100 watches per day, while 125 pocketbo
have been lifted during a one days stand.
Many a woman who thought the safest
place to carry valuabes was her stocking
has come to grief. Any little bunch on
a shapely limb was sure to catch the eye
of the man who was on the lookout. A
sharp razor-like knife, quick slit, and
the little bunch would disappear as if by
magic Why, it was like getting money
from home.
1.-The old-fashioned red hip pocketbook
was all the go in those days, and the
easiest thing 10 turn off in the business
The weather was generally sweltering
and many a vest was wide open, watch
hanging almost ready to fall from the
pocket A certain New York city jeweler
had soap box full shipped him every
week. Fact.
TT was almost an impossibility to Sc
cure the arrest of one of these grafters.
Everybody belonging to the show was on
and would help the fellow out. Suppose a
man missed his watch or his pocketbook.
He would drop through the seats and
chase the thief, who would run and duck
under the canvas. The pursuer would, the
first he knew run into a canvasman, who
would seize him and make him explain
what he was doing inside the guy ropes.
BY this time the CRATER had gone. Nine

The Strong Man of the British Army
and His PeriIs IN Egypt.
From the London Mail.

From the London Mail
1t is no exaggeration of public opinion
to say that in Lord Kitchener rests much
of the country's hope that a different COM
plexion will be speedily put on the state
of affairs in South Africa. Recent events
have demonstrated that a strong man is
wanted there. Lord Kitchener is a strong
man. A great authority has pronounced
him as 'the most prominent man in the
British army" He has certainly done
much in recent years. and done it all well.
He is living contradiction of the saying
that "a man who never makes a mistake
never makes anything" Lord Kitchener
has yet to make his mistake, albeit he has
made much.
Lord Kitcheners career in Egypt was
an unbroken succession of triumphs He
had some of the most difficult problems
TO tackle, and he overcame them ALL his
browning achievement being the smash
ing up of Mahdism at Omdurman.
Throughout that campaign he proved him
self commander. an organizer and a
strateglst of the finest quality, although
it is none too often that a combination
of these qualities is found in one man.
Lord Salisbury has described him as "a
singular master of desert warfare"
Cool daring, resourceful and possessed
of a wonderful power of self-restraint,
Lord Kitchener is the very man for the
position he Will fill in South Africa. He
is not the soldiers idol that Lord Roberts,
his great chief is, because Kitchener new
er spares his men, nor, for that matter,
does he spare himself. One a project is
afoot, once a goal is TO be reached. Kitch-
ener means to get there. He does not con-
fnr of oh
unit he looks upon as part of a vast ma
chine, which must not stop until he gives
the order II anything interferes with the
smooth working of that machine II must
be removed Immediately. He has been
known to dispense with the services of
men who for years have worked under
him well and faithfully until some tenn
porary indisposition has laid them low.
They were no longer Of use, so they had
to GO
1t is hardly 10 be wondered at that a
man OF this hard, cold, calculating disposi-
ton is not loved. and Tommy" will never
make a pet" of Lord Kitchener. But he
adrnires him and places implicit faith in
his Judgment and would follow him
wherever he chose to 60 And what more
would commander have?

From The Chicago News.

From me chicago NEWS
Never, since Xerxes' time, have the ma
tons of the world gathered their varied
armies together as is now the case at
Tien Tsin Under the walls of that grim
old Chinese town, English and American,
French and German. Japanese and Rus
sian. Austrian and Italian fought side by
side. hereditary enmities forgotten, ven
geance in their hearts and the great
worlds approval at their backs. At Leip-
sic. in 1913, Napoleon, with his French
and Polish troops, faced Germans, Aus
trians. Russians and Swedes, while at
Waterloo the Corsican had to meet Eng
lish Germans, Belgians and Hollanders
In the Crimean war, Russia stood against
English. French Turkish and Italian
armies. but in none of these conflicts were
so many or such Heterogeneous forces
brought together as in China yesterday
The battle Of Tien Tsin might well be
called the battle of The nations, and the
great war now at hand should go down in
history as the war of the world against
Mongolian barbarism.
