Of all the | thieves caught in the act of stealing from the establishment there has not been one | avho did not declare with tears that never | before had he or she been guilty of the slightest act of dishonesty. The fact that we arrest so few men in | comparison to women and giris of whom | we are compelled to make examples is | due, not to the superior honesty of men, but to the fact that in a:store like this women customers are in an overwhelming | majority. We have very little if any trou- ble with little girls, while boys of varying | ages “sneak’ small articles quite fre- | quently. We deal with this class of cul- | prits in a special way, however. We do | ! not think it right to expose voung boys | to the contaminating influénces of the | City Prison, or to cloud thelr lives with the disgrace of arrest, but when we find | them taking trifles without going through | the formality of paving for them, we just | march them down cellar and argue with | them concerning the wrongfulness of the proceeding by means of a stout little rat- | tan. Our arguments have always proved effective, for no boy repeats the experi- | ment here after the first trial; and more- | over, no indignant parent ever puts in an | appearance and disputes our right to take the law into our own hands in this infor- | mal fashion. “ Few people realize the difficulties sur- | rounding such.a position as Mr. Allen | and I occupy. While we are expected to “let no guilty man” or woman ‘“‘escape’ we must err, if we err at all, always on the side of the public. An unfounded accusation, a_mere suspicious interroga- tion addressed to the Wrong person, even the slightest hint of watchfulness in re- gard to one who can prove that he or she is as Caegar's wife was obliged to be, will ruin a store detective’s reputation and place the house for which he works in a most unpleasant position. I make it a rule never to arrest a person whom I have not myself seen com- mit a crime. When a clerk sends for me and tells me that a certain customer has taken something from the counter 1 sim- iply watch the customer. As a general | she could hardly | this store.

Generally the worst kind of scene follows in there, but when I know that I am right the outcome is_assured The patrol wagon is sent for and the P¢ =I('- 1('(,\urt takes the settlement off our hands. I believe we have compromised just two but there | | cases since this store started, were circumstances surrounding _both which made such a course excusable. when One was in the early days the departments were run by dif- ferent firms. A very well dressed woman with a nice otherly face came in and went «downstairs to the vegetable stand, and while the attendant was busy with another customer she just stuffed her sealskin cloak with his stock in trade and came upstairs. She managed to find a newspaper somewhere and unloaded her booty into it, makirg a huge bundle that arry, and then walked around up in the heuse furnishing depart- ment as coolly as possible, looking at | things, thinking that she had made the deal all right. The vegetable man had seen her pick up the things, however, and he got me to go with him and ask her about it. She saw us coming and threw the bundle on a pile of comforters, and then went into a_tearing rage. But after a_bit che calmed down and asked what the damage was. There were {wo pot toes, four tomatoes, three apples, of léttuce, two oranges and three or four handfuls 'of dried peas in that bundle, and she pald the man §2 50 for the out- fit. And she had a pocketbook just packed with twenty-dollar gold pieces to pay it out of. The other case was that of a pretty and refined looking young lady who came in here with her little baby. She left it in its carriage and went to different coun ters, and finally deliberately stole som cheap little articles, putting them in her pocket right before my eys. When we took her in the office she refused to tell Ler name, and did so only when we threatened to send her off in the patrol wagon at once. Then she wrote it on a bit of paper and we found that she was the Wwife 6f a very prominent lawyer. We sent for him, and the scene there hen he found his wife there under those circurastances was the worst thing of the kind that I ever went through. At first he wouldn't believe it possible that she had done such a thing, but she broke down and confessed, and there they with the baby between them crving a though their hearts would break. “The end of it was that we let them out the back way and agreed to say nothing more about_it; but we added her name to ou st of “‘undesirables’—persons who hay been warned never to visit the establisk ment—and she has never come inside our doors since. There are two pretty voung girls here in town who got themseives into a queer fix by their love for finery. They plotted the whole thing togéther, it seems, and | started out with a big satchel which they proceeded to fill at the expense of Feather boas, which seem to have a specially irresistible attraction for women _thieves, ribbons, neckwear, belts and toilet articles all went in there. and in consequence they went up before Judge Mogan. They were proven guilty and confessed, but the Judge has never sen- tenced them. Instead he insists wupon their nppearlni before him every two weeks, when he makes inquiries ‘as to thelr behavior and surroundings, gives them a good, sharp lecture and lets them go for another half-month. They were arrested last October and have been “‘coming up for sentence” ever since, and :ge effect has been most salutary upon em. A handsome white-haired old lady, dressed in most elegant stvle and with plenty of money in her silver mounted purse, hovered around the bijou counter one day and annexed a dozen or so sil- out of ten I see them pick up | art to walk off. Then I interrupt them | B R R o o R e e o S R S o o LEEb 444 ver stamp and match boxes. We saw her gather them in, and I asked her to take a walk to the office with me. She under- ‘:aumd what I meant and was furlously | dignant, doing the “How dare you to perfection, but as we walked along dropped the little boxes one by one, and Mr. Allen. walking just behind, picked them up; the two or three she hal rema’'n- ing when we got to the office she threw behind the g: tove, and then she defied us. She was 1y in her manners so elegant and refined in her appearance that she almost made me believe that my eves had played me false, but when the patrol wagon arrived there was a com- plete transformation. Such language as he used when she found that her bluff wouldn't work I never heard from mor- tul woman, and 1 have heard some pretiy strong talk during the seven years that I have spent as a detective. It took two po- licemen and the rest of us together to | get her started on her journey uptown, and her fellow travelers didn’t enjoy the trip at all. It was a younger womna who coolly went upstairs, selected a papier mache washbowl and pitcher and a suit of boy's clothes and took them to the wrapper to be wrapped up. The informality of the proceedings strick the young min as be- ng worthy of note. and he asked her what clerk sold them to her with the re- sult that she confessed after a little sharp questioning that she had simply accumu- lated them on general principles. Some- what similar to this was the escapade of the young actress who went into the mil- | inery department and picked out a hand- some hat and then hunted about until she found a bandbox, In which she concealed her prize and went off with it into the cloak room. where she was J trying on ‘kets, when we apprehended her. We cerned by her confession that she had | visited us on two previous occasions, on one of which she had stolen a dress and on the other a waist. We have caught only five Chinese thieves here, all men, but there was no nonsense in' their selection of goods to conceal in their long sleeves. They took | only such things as were valuabie and | easily hidden, and they took them so | deftly that you could” hardly believe it | even’if you were looking straight at them. | Of course, besides watching the custom- ers we keep an eve on the clerks, for | where therc are so many employed as | there are here, the number varying from | 1200 to 2200 in the busy times, there may | be an o sional black sheep among them. It is re thing, however, that we find | any of them dishonest, the worst thing in that line being the recent e of the sh!m)fin‘g clerk in the grocery department, who, after having his salary raised twice during the past year and po ng the implicit confidence of his employe: could not resist the temptation to fill his pock- ets with small articles at the close of the day’s work. We caught him with a bot- | tle of orange marmalade, a can of boned | chicken and a piece of common brown bar soap, and the result was that he was i sent up for ninety days as a_punishment and an example. : PALMISTRY.
