Advocates of Woman’s Life in the Home Carry Off the Honors.

OAKLAND, Oct. 20.—There is nothing unusual in a thief covering up his tracks, but when in addition he returns the stolen property and that in a novel manner, it Is extraordinary and bespeaks an in- geniously honest thief. A few days ago Charles P. Maleton, foreman at Gates & Vogt's livery stable, corner of Fourteenth and Franklin streets, had a valuable gold Jratch stolen out of his vest, the latter being hidden beneath a buggy robe. The ""c‘.’, and detectives were set to work on he Case. but this afternoon Maleton re- Selved a letter, poorly written by some one who conceals his identity, saying that the thief who stole the watch 1s “‘poor ‘but honest,” and that if the owner wishes the return of his timepiece he can' *find same In a hole in the sidewalk on the west side of Franklin street, between Thirteenth and Fourtcenth.” Mr. Malo. ton regarded the g0od news as incredible but to satisfy his curlosity hunted in the hole, and to his great surprise was re- warded by finding the watch safe and sound and ticking away merrily. —_———— Ian Maclaren’s New Love Story, “gaved by Faith,” will be published in next Sunday’s Catl, 1, | in | Men | or sympathize with | STY TOMES, YELLOW MAPS AND LAWYERS 3No Lobby -Graces the | Water-Front Case. il 'PATIENCE ON THE RACK EXHIBITS ENOUGH TO FILL A | FREIGHT CAR. | o Desultory Evidence, Day After Day, | and No One Dare Predict | When It May Cease.
