believed that would be the shortest way to

not find favor with his fellow-delegates.
A series of propositions which did find
favor was put forth by Gen. Aleman, one
of the ultra-radical delegates. He formu-

The Trick By Which He Once Got .
WOm0M'a Purse.

WOmaM's Purse.
Jack Piggott, the noted pickpocket,
used to tell a funny story about the
difficulty he had in picking the pocket
Of 4 fashionably dressed woman who
was looking in ut the window Of
Shreve's jewelry store. 1t illustrates
the hardships that the light fingered
gentry are forced to endure in the pur-
suit of their profession and when first
related was considered amusing not
only by Piggott. but by the many to
whom he contided his experience.
1t was a cold winter evening and the
lady OH whose purse Piggott had designs
stood looking at the holiday tinery so
temptingly displayed. Piggott said
that he tried all the arts known to his
craft for the extraction Of the wallet,
but all in vain, unull. as Il last resort,
he tished toothpick from his pocket
and. reaching around. tickled the lady's
ear. lnstinctively she raised her hand
to brush away the invading insect or
whatever it might be and in so doing
let go Of her pocketbook that she was
carrying in the pocket of her coat.
1t was only an Instant. but it was
long enough for the expert pickpocket
to get in his work. and when she put
her hand back her money was gone.
and in the crowd around her she could
not identify the pale faced. fashiona-
bly, dressed young man ut her side as
the person who had robbed her. and
II she had accused him there would
have been no proof against him. as
the swag was at once passed to a pal
who stood ready to receive 1t and run.
Piggott was not even arrested for tina,
crime and the lady's ludjcrous outcries
furnished material for mirth long aft.
