him and sure that his gentlemanly de
pertinent and genial disposition will
win friends for him wherever he
goes. Keep you eye on the National

Charged With Stealing Diamond Ring.

Joseph Hooper, twenty nine years old,
OF Brooklyn. Anne Arundel county, was
arrested IN Baltimore Saturday last on
the charge OF stealing a diamond ring
valued at $50. The ring is The property
OF Mrs. William B. Brown. OF Baltimore,
and was given to her by her husband as
an engagement ring. From the testi-
monv submitted at the hearing it appears
that Hooper was sent 10 take a parcel to
Mrs. Browns home last Monday. After
he had left, the ring, which had been on
the chlffonler, was missed. Detectives
Hogan and MobleY, who were assigned
10 the case, found the ring in his posses
sion. AT the hearing Hooper broke down
and cried like child and admitted taking
the ring. He said he did not know what
had induced him to take it. Mr.. Brown
said he did not wish to prosecute the
case, as he believed Hooper to be of un-
sound mind. The detectives concurred
IN this belief and stated that Hooper had
made no effort to dispose of the ring. He
was held pending an examination as to
his sanity.
