It happened this, way: A detective who was often detailed to gatherings, wed dings, the houses of parliament, West minster abbey, and other public places, often ran* across a wiry little man who he discovered had no business where he was seen, and did nothing for a living. “Coincidental with the man’s visits to crowded places were complaints of lar- ceniea of articles that were carried in the pockets of tails of coats, and espe cially silk handkerchiefs. The detectives HURpected tho little wiry man, but he ev idently had more than one confederate to pass wTiat was stolen so as to be ‘clean,’ for the oflicer who was watch ing him, anef who was nettled nt re proof from his superiors for his negli gence in not discovering the pickpock et, had him arrested twice by other of ficers and ‘shukwn down* without find ( ing any stolen g^mfs nr his possession. “Strange officers were used to make the arrests in order that the suspected man might not become familiar with j the principal detective’s face, as he de termined to get him ‘by hook or by crook.’ Now I don’t mean this for a pun, but it came out that way. The de tective belonged to one of the many fishing clubs that abound in London, and was familiar with tackle.. • ; “Procuring four dozen unsnelled , hooks of the size and strength used here for bluckfish, some flax thread and a needle, he passed an afternoon in turn ing the tail-pockets of arr old-fashioned j frock coat into a. thief-trap- The hooks ! were ringed and with the* needle were j sewed bent out Just inside the pocket, permitting a hand to enter,-but prevent j ing its withdrawal. lie*knew of a book i sale t4xit would be largely attended at | the exist end of tJhe Strand and made up 1 carefirfh-y for it, so that when he left home Lite was a pleasant-faced old gobe- mouche’. | “At the hook sale he took care to be ! as vacuous and unmindful of his sur roundings as possible, but noted the { presence of the suspect and waited j calmly for a bite.

There was a tug at his coat and a bitter oath, and he knew that his man’s hand was seized by the hooks, and that lie would not venture to risk the agony that Wiring away fcVevbly would inflict.

Even this huge figure is less than it used to be, for. with the general adoption of coal washing plants, the introduction of producers capable Of using small coal in the making of gas and the manufacture of briquettes, lhe loss has been re duced. It forms still 23 per cent, of the total output, and represents a mOtiey sacrifice of £20,000.000. Al lowing 10,000,000 homes in the United Kingdom, these 50,000,000 tons would allow five tons per annum for every family.

Among the objects returned to the Chinese were half a million of pearls and the cases with the collec tion sent to France by Gen. Frey and l returned by order of the minister of marine. The corres|>ondent also says that the ter-ms of the final protocol were fixed on August 15. The paper employed was fine Japanese paper, thick and of square form, furnished by the bishopric. The text was written in French «nd ! Chinese and long sittings werw neces sary by Messrs.
