WAY TO CATCH PICKPOCKETS. I Be Set Fl.hhook. tn Mia Fockere and i Baited with SSO Gold rieooa. A remarkable story came te light yesterday regard.ng an experience Monday night of ( bailee Osborne, the mining man of ohasta County, w.th a pickpocket, In which he came off Immeasurably best. Osborne has Just sailed for South Africa. Tho story is so unusual as to seem hardly ■ credible, bul is vouchoJ for in away to carry belief. Csborne arrived here several weeks , ago. He is one of the best-known ! mining men of California, having mined for years in the North, lie ! was the discoverer of the Gladstone gold mine, French Gulch, winch he , sold for #.">0,000. As be was on his ] way to Johannesburg to lake tharge , of some mines and did not know when he would get back, he spent I some time here seeing the sights and , taking his ease preparat <ry to starting. While here lie sent to Redding for SI,OOO, which hie received by ex- t press. Much of this money he carried on his person, lor Osborne Is a big, stalwart man, who has been about tho world and is not afraid. One night over a week ago, when he and his friend. Petty, were but' seeing the sights,a llght-tlngercd man touched him for two S2O gold pieces, , which he had In one of his trousers | rockets. This was a surprise to Os-1 borne, and set him to thinking. He' had never had anything like that | happen before, and be was much an -1 noyed. He said nothing about it at I the time, however, but set to work ■ devising a p:an for thwarting any similar accident in the future. In a dim way he recollected that he thought some one had put a hand in his pocket on the night he lost the, coin. Osborne, as is customary among many mining men, wears substantial corduroy clothes, and ‘these are equipped with unusually strong pockets. In the right pocket of his trousers, therefore, he skillfully, arranged half a dozen big fishhooks, each carefully fastened to its placer and in such away that they would offer no resistance ti a hand while being inserted, but the hand would j be grasped by the barbs while being ! withdrawn. Any ond of the hooks ■ would hold a ten-pound salmon. Thus equipped Osborne again started forth. At the corner of California and Kearney streets a faker was blitnesomely expatiating about his wares, and the mining man stopped to hear what he had to say. Lesirousof testing his invention he jingled two or three S2O pieces carelessly in sight, and then dropped a couple of them in sight of the yawning maw below the fishhooks. Then he leaned back and became absorbed in the street corner oratory. In a lew moments, sure enough, he felt a hand going down his pocket. It moved slowly and carefully, but every time the laker said anything to make the crowd laugh it went down with more confidence.' Pretty soon Mr. Osborne felt that he had a man at his elbow Jt’ho was doing some deep thinking. He knew this by the commotion that had taken place in his pocket. He said nothing, but he knew something was going to happen. It did, when a voice said: “Say, mister! Pva got my hand in your pocket!” “What have you got your hand in my pocket for?” said Osborne, cheerfully. “Why don’t you take it out?” ‘•1 can’t; it's caught,’’ said the man, looking up and turning pale. “Well; come right down here to a policeman. He will help you take it out,” replied the mining man,and he moved off as he spoke, the thief Seine forced to trot along by the side of his captor. “O, 1 dind’t get any money. For heaven’s sake let me go!’’ cried the thief. Osborne did not care anything about imprisoning the fellow and punishing him further. He declared he would not have minded it a bit it he had lost the additional gold pieces. All he wanted was to see if his trap would work. So he released the fellow and let him tzo. He immediately ran away, and Osborne returned to his hotel, followed by several people. H. It. Bemis and others examined the tlshhcok-gnarded pocket. It had considerable blood in it from the hand of the would-be-thief.—San Franciscq Chronicle. Paddy’s Shillelagh. He was a i heerful Ir shman, who had spenta festive week among the lights of London, and in tne course of tiiat week had lost a blackthorn stick on whi.h he had set great store. ■ - • On the verge of his departure he hied him to Scotland Lard, and laid the case of his missing shillelagh before the authorities at the Lost Property Oti.ce.” “It is a thorny stick and cut It myself, and had a big knob at one end. and I’m going home to-morrow and there’s a fair on Tuesday and I’ll waut it.” These were his instructions to the department. He was courteous y informed that every effort would be made to find the strayed sprig, the ihief officer on duty blandly adding: “You may rest assured, sir, we shall leave no stone unturned in the matter.” Perfectly satisfied, the hero of this adventure withdrew, but the next day, wishing to catch tho “Irish mail” at Euston, he was stopped by a barrier right across the roadway, Ardent expressions rose to his lips, for minutes were very precious just then, and his ovial face darkened as be looked out and saw a veiy army of navvies behind the barrier tearing up the road with might and main. Almost had he opened fire with a v gorous complaint when, like the roan in the play, he suddenly “saw it< all.” The words used by the gentleman in uniform at Scotland I ard flashed back to him, and, with a surrendering smile, he murmured: “Be the powers, they're quick at keeping their word; its turning ivory stone they are," and he cheerfully lost that train, —Spare Moments.

The Abbe Garnier delivered a lecture tho other afternoon in the Theatre d'Appilcatlou, in the Rue St Latare, Paris on his system ftp- providing pensions for old age for the working classes, by means of his newly-founded journal, Le Pouple I Francals. The Abbe began by saying ■ that there were unworked fields in | which the journalist could do much good in connection with various dej partments of practical life. He (the I lecturer) had devoted himself to the task ot solving the difficult problem I of providing pensions for old age in 1 the working classes. Now, here was ■ the Abbe’s method. His paper, which has been in circui latlon since the end of the year, is | sold at a sou, one halfpenny. Any i one desirous of securing a sum for ■ bis old ago need only put aside j another halfpenny every day, and pay I this into the coffers of the journal; when, at the end of three months, | he will receive a “hoc” lor 18 francs iSO centimes. The operation is to be I conducted by means of counters or | tokens, which are supplied to the i venders of the journal. In the course I of time—fifteen years, twenty years —the savings will amount to a large ’ sum. I But there wassomething more; this j scheme would enable well-to-do | benevolent people to help in forming I a provision for the old age of their less fortunate fellow-creatures. Such persons would merely have to pay the quarterly subscription of 18 francs 15 centimes (15 shillings) into the cash box of Le Peuple Francaise. The fut.d was intended to be apportioned on behalf of four works—viz., one-fourth for the unemployed workers, another fourth in gratuitous loans to the temporarily unemployed, the third portion for cases ot sickness in families, and the letnainder for payment of rent. The Abbe, who stated that he had just returned from a tour in the provinces, assured Lisaudience that he had obtained many adhesions I from employers on conditions of subI scriptions by their workpeople.—The | Leeds Mercury. Saved by a Woman. The bleak winds howled through the mou n tain gorges and drove the snow in blinding clouds that eddied and swirled among the tree tops and down'the steep declivities and hid from sight the yawning casms, the rocky cliffs, the dizzy precipices, and the seamsi and gashfs that marred the face of the rent and rugged landscape. Pulling and panting up the grade, its cloud of smoke and frosty breath of the storm king, came the engine that pulled the lightning express with its crowd of west-bound passengers. Along the mountain side, now rumbling over the iron trestles spanning some fathomless gorge, and anon plunging through some cavernous snowshed that stretched its protecting roof over the lines of steel which marked the mighty transcontinental highway, sped the train of palace cars. And the wind blew in gusty , squalls and roared as if in savage glee at the helplessness of man arrayed in conflict with the forces of nature, At a lonely station near the summit the train comes to a sudden halt. The door of the forward passenger coach was thrown violently open and live or six g'gWntic rnffians, armed to the teeth, strode inside. “The first man that moves a finger," said the leader of the gang, in a deep, hoarse voice, “is a dead man.” Half way down the car a lady whose hearing was imperfect had been engaged in an animated conversation with a fellow traveler. She has not noticed the stoppage of the train, and in the stillness that followed the harsh command of the train robber her voice rose clearly and distinctly. “Last October,” she said, “when I wa- at the World’s Fair——” <<s With howls of rage and despair the murderous viliians turned in their tracks, fled and in a moment had varnished in the raging storm outside. This train was saved.—Chicago Tribune. Men’s Society Clothes. Women generally know how to dress themse ves and their children lor most of the ‘ functions” of society. But they are o ten sadly perplexed as to how their husbands should be attired. Beyond knowing that men should not wear evening clothes before 6 o’clock, their ideas on masculine garb are vague. And, as they fre uentlv have to decide the question of what their lords and masters shall wear, it would be wise for them to re id. mark, learn, and inwardly digest the follow ng facts: At 2 o’clock weddings, known as morning weddings—which jire about the only early festivities to which a man can be dragged—t e bridegroom wears dark-striped trousers, doublebreasted frock coat, undressed pearlgrey gloves, white four in-hand, tall hat and big boutonnierd. Tne ushers are similarly attired, and the masculine wedding guests who aim to be correct, wear clothes ot the same general fashion, though, of course, the style of their ties, gloves and boutonnierei is not prescribed by law At ail fashionable morning affairs this uniform, with some individual variations, is correct. In the evening, of course, evening clothes are necessary. This season prescribes a three-button, plain shirt front, a straight, stand-up (ollar either a black cloth waist-coat or a double-breasted, four-buttoned wh tr one. No jewelry is worn, and pearl grey gloves, stitched with back, are considered in best taste, as are patent leather shoes. —New York Weekly. What Krupp Gives His Workmen.

Enrol o Slowly Grow mg Colder. That the continent of Europe is passing through a cold period has been pointed out by M. Flauimarlon, the French astronomer. During the past six years the raonn temperature of Paris has been aljp’it 2 degrees below tho normal, and Great Britain, Belgium, Spuin. Italy, Austria, and Germany have also been growing cold. The change seems to have been in progress in France for a long time, tho growth of t lie vine having been forced far southward since tho thirteenth, century; and a similar cooling has been observed as far away as 1 (iode Janeiro, where tho annual temperature has been going down for so.no years past. —Scientific American.

Rats Forced to Keep Gnawing, Have you any idea why it is that rats, mi.ee, and squirrels are continually gnawing at something? They do not do this lor ‘*pure devilment,” as people generally but because they are forced to. Animals of that class, especially the rats, have teeth which continue to grow k as long as their owner lives. In the human species the teeth are developed from pulps which are absorbed and disappear as soon as the second set are full grown, but in the case of the much maligned rat the pulp supply is perpetual. and is continually secreting materials by which the incisors gain in length. This being the- case, the poor creature is compelled to keep up his regular gnawing operations in order to keep his teeth ground off to a proper length.—St. Louis Republic. Vast Herds of Manitoba Reindeer. S. B.

He said: “I had an unobstructed view for three miles, and the whole tract was covered with reindeer. When seen singly we had to shoot them at from LOO to 300 yards. In herds we could get up to within lOOyards. The ground is always frozen in this country except a few inches on the surface in summer. The grass thaws out during this season and the deer live on it.
