1t begins to look as if the proposed
overhead bridge at the Augusta sta
ton of the Maine Central might soon
become a reality, as the announce
ment was made this week that an or
der had been passed for the building
of the structure. One of the officials
OF the road said in speaking of the
bridge that it would be located at the
north end of the passenger station,
passing from point on Dlckman
street across to the east side Of the
awning which runs north from the
station. From that point steps Will
lead down to a landing over the stone
steps which lead to Commercial street
at the rear of Hotel North, and from
this landing other steps will lead to
the platform connecting at point near
the iron railing az the north side of the
stone steps. The bridge will have to
be constructed at a height above the
tracks sufficient tc allow the passage
of trains, and will be 10 feet above The
top of the retaining wall at the west
side Of the tracks.

1t would surprise one t. nnow the
eXtont Of the petty stealing which is
carried on in Water street stores dur
ing the rush of the holiday trade. and
not only that but at about any time
during the year when trade is brisk
And another curious thing in connec-
ticn with the habit is that the ajor-
ity Of the thieves are women. and ap-
parently respectable women at that.
Ask any of the dealers on the street
and they will cite instances where
things have been taken from their
stores time and time again. In many
cases the thieves are caught. but as a
general thing they are allowed to go
unprecedented on giving up the articles
which. they have taken. But while
some are detected there are many 9TH
ers who make success of this habit
Of stealing. and from the articles which
they will sometimes take it would
seem that they steal more for the sake
az stealing than for the value Of what
they steal. 1t was only 4 few days
ago that a woman was detected in one
of the largest dry goods houses of the
city in the act of stealing souvenir
postal cards. and when shown up to
the proprietor of the store by one of
the clerks she had hand satchel near
ly filled with packages of the cards.
Stockings are among the favorite arti-
cles that the store thief covets, also
pocket books. and even the various arti-
Giles of feminine apparel-anything
which the thief can secrete. 1t may
be good policy to allow the thieves 10
so unpublished. bur 10 some it would
seem that 4 little municipal court JUS
tice would go quite z way toward dis
couraging the practice of sh0piifting.
