A thief chu.se on the Bowery was a dully occurrence when that famous song was popular. Then the dips end others who Infested that thoroughture would hold up any passerby who they thought bad anything that looked like money concealed on bis person- But the light-fingered gentry sod strong armed fellows have found other fields more lucrative, according to a New York correspondent of the Pittsburgh Dlsiintch. ' The big street Is now the stamping grounds of "weary Willies" and bums whose only vncution Is to panhandle the price of a drink. So one day re cently, when the old familiar cry of "Stop thief was heard the Bowery frus almost paralyzed; everybody stood still and watched for the culprit Soon they saw a tall, lean and hungry looking youth darting under the ele vated pillars, but they made uo effort to catch him. When the cops arrived on the scene the man had disappeared. "Where did he go?" bellowed one with a club, who held It threateningly over several men who stood In a doorway. "Did you sec that guy running this wuyt Where did he go? Come 'mi, now." But no one had seen the thief. While ihe cops were making their search upathotir. cringing men eaine from the different doorways to learn what the excitement was all about. "My God," remarked one frowsy look ing Individual, us the cops departed, "1 was scared It was some guy offering a Job." Aud appreciative chuckles went up along the line. Foresight "I'm Inking lessons from n man who leaches people how to remember." "Is he pretty good?" "I guess so, but he-dnesn't seem to have much confidence In his methods." 'How Is that?" I notice he makes his student pay dim In advance, so thur will be no chance for them to forget to do It lif ter they finish." O'LOTJGHLIN & WILLIAMS Noveltv Military Act sj I SEATTLE, Wash., Dec. 12. To the coast guard cutter Snohomish goes the honor of firing the first shot on the Pacific after the United States entered the war: According to the story on the Se attle waterfront, the cutter sighted a Norwegian steamer sailing down tho coast at a fast clip. The Sno homish signaled the vessel to halt, In accordance with the patrol regula tions. But the Norwegian continued at the same merry clip. The cutler then opened fire, laying a shot across the bow of the speed ing vessel. The Norwegian steamer promptly stopped. Tho officers of the cutter laid dowb the lnw to the Norwegians and the two vessels went on about their business. Balanced Rations In jails, orphan asylums and other institutions it is found cheaper to serve the inmates with a balanced ration, carefully planned and decently cooked, than to feed them on the old hit-or-miss un healthful plan.
