THIEVES INVENT A NEW WAY
Clever Philadelphia Shopliftcrs Per.
feet an Ingenious Device for
Carrying on Their Work.

Philadelphia.-Som time ago in
several large stores In this city IT
was found that goods were being
stolen in a wholesale way that set all
the floor watchers working with re-
doubled energy, but despite their ex'
ira vigilance the thieves were not de-
tected for quite awhile. Finally their
system was discovered and through
the arrest recently of two men and a
young woman from $4,000 to $4,000
worth Of stolen goods were recovered
in their room. The detectives en-
tered the room just as the three were
unloading goods of various kinds from
the big paper boxes In which the pur-
loined articles had been successfully
secreted while the thieves were at
work in the stores.
The boxes were especially designed
for making thefts easy, the arrange
ment being something new even in
the varied arts of shoplifters. A hole
about twelve inches long and five
inches wide was cut in each box, and
the box was so carried under the arm
with this hole next to the side Of the
body that 1t was almost impossible to
discover II. The accused would each
buy some trifiing articles and pay for
il. The bill was then taken and at
tached TO the box in such way that
1t could be seen readily by the sales.
people and store detectives. Each of
the thieves would operate at different
counters, as rule, but sometimes one
OF the men and the woman would op-
crate together.

Extensive Campaign Against Dis

Washington.-While no case Of hu.
man plague has appeared In San
Francisco In two years and four
months and no case of rat plague has
been found there in year and six
months. the deadly war for the exter-

metropolis continues without relaxa-

With this statement Acting Assist
ant Surgeon @. NJ Converse of the
United States Public Health and
Marine hospital service introduces a
report containing interesting details
OF the anti.plague work This war
on rats Is mostly I'm the nature OF a
prophylactic measure against reinfec-

Thirty laborers are employed ex-
clusively as rat trappers. There are
In constant use about 5000 traps of
the cage and snap varieties. During
May 1851 rats were trapped In this
time the bait used was 32l pounds of
bacon, 104 pounds of cheese and 62O
loaves of bread. Bread was the best
bait in cage traps: n record Ia kept
Of the location each rat Is trapped
Destruction of rats by poison Is now
limited to the sewers. During May
27452 pieces of poisoned bread were
distributed on boards placed in tho
sewers.
City inspectors, acting under the
United States authorities, have been
making reinspection Of all premises
in the city and Surgeon Converse says
the result at the present time seems
to show that the people have learned
lesson OF cleanliness.
