Philadelphia, Feb. 17.-Picled up at
Seventh and Vine streets on suspicion
Of being pickpockets, Annie Smith,

Annie Smith. the elder girl, did
most of the talking. but the other,
almost a baby, showed a skill in
pocket picking and purse opening
ihat was positively uncanny. To dem
Dnstrate their ability Director Clay
asked them to open a small grip. so
that the person holding it should not
know he was being touched" The
task was ridiculously easy. and the
elder girls story that they had gained
more than $4,000 for their enticers, a
mysterious man and woman. in the
last half year was received as true.
According to Annie Smiths story.
they were taken from their home in
Camden about six months ago by the
man and woman whose names and
address she has given to the police.
They were carefully drilled in
pocket picking. and when they became
proficient a tour Of the country was
planned.
The girl says they Travelled to many
cities, and she and her baby half sis
ter picked pockets in all of them. She |
stoutly insists that their thefts amount |
to $1,000.
