RAN INTO CROWD OF POLICE.
Sneak THIEF Gets Glad Surprise on
Main Street.

William Mahoney absolutely con-
yinced himself at noon today that there
is plenty of truth in the old saying that
policemen are always where you don't
want them. and never where you do.
William had strong preferences as to
where he wanted his policeman, that
perhaps accounts for his opinion o
them, He was headed south at full
speed on Main street with a fur under
his coat. which he had stolen from the
Oriental bazaar at 80 south Main street.
Where he didn't want the policeman
was In his path. and there he encoun-
tered Policeman Roberts. A glance in
another direction led his eyes to the
corpulent form of Officer Staines, and
when he looked again he encountered
officer Doty. After that he saw Detec-
tive Janney and in trying to get
through the bunch for a clear field he
ran square into the arms of Policeman
Doty. anG was headed east on First
South street 20 the city Jail.
Mahoney said he was broke,
and would rather steal than
beg especially when the oppor-
tunity to steal was so easy.
The Oriental bazaar has missed several
sets of furs within the past few days,
but this time Mahoney was seen in the
act Of purloining the fur from the front
of the store. a clerk grappled with him.
but he succeeded in breaking away and
starting on the run down the street fol-
lowed by large crowd. He was book
cd for petit larceny.
