PICKPOCKETS AT CIRCUSES.
In the Old Dn> the Light-Fingered
Men Made Good Hauls.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
“Since Addle Forepaugh has retired
from the show business big mit show
grafters have hafl a hard run for their
white alley,” said a well-know T n detective
as he strolled into the Palmer House bar
w ith a few wise ones yesterday.
“Show's on the road to-day resemble a
Methodist revival tent, as compared with
lsßh-’BS. During these years there w’ere
twenty professional pickpockets w’ho fol
lowed the Forepaugh aggregation, all on
a still hunt for grauch pockets. Among
these experts was Windy Dick, who man
aged the combination. For two entire
seasons Windy Dick paid S2OO a day for
protection. The gang had a railway coach
of their own, and was furnished transpor
tation without charge. The whole lot
lived in royal style. During the parade
the streets and stores were looked after,
and it was almost an impossibility to ar
rest a member of the gang. They would
split up and cover the retreat of a fet
low’-pickpocket to perfection. During five
seasons not a member was left in the
hands of local police.
“The richest graft was the inside tent
work while the show was going on. Un
der the seats w'ere each and every one of
the gang. When the boy crying peanuts
or ice-cool lemonade noticed a particu
larly fine spark or studden chron, he
would give the office to the man on the
ground below’, and a hundred to one the
tip went. Every man, woman and child
was in reality at their mercy. George
Arthur, then a mere lad, would average
100 w’atches per day, while 125 pocketbooks
have been lifted during a one day’s stand.
Many a woman who thought the safest
place to carry valuables was her stocking
has come to grief. Any little bunch on
a shapely limb was sure to catch the eye
of the man who was on the lookout. A
sharp razor-like knife, a quick slit, and
the little bunch would disappear as if by
magic. Why, it was like getting money
from home.
“The old-fashioned red hip pocketbook
was all the go in those days, and the
easiest thing to turn off in the business.
The weather was generally sweltering
and many a vest was wide open, watch
hanging almost ready to fall from the
pocket. A certain New York city jeweler
hid a soap box full shipped him every
week. Fact.
“It was almost an impossibility to se
cure the arrest of one of these grafters.
Everybody belonging to the show was on
and would help the fellow out. Suppose a
man missed his watch or his pocketbook.
He would drop through the seats and
chase the thief, who would run and duck
under the canvas. The pursuer would, the
first he knew, run into a canvasman, who
w’ould seize him and make him explain
what he was doing inside the guy ropes.
By this time the grafter had gone. Nine
out of ten chances he was inside working
again, while the man who had been rob
bed, if he chanced to have any loose
change, had to put it up at the front en
trance in order to get back where he
started from.
“Yes, I am pretty well posted, and why
not. for in those days I was known as
littie Georgie Arthur.”

Never, since Xerxes' time, have the na
tions of the world gathered their varied
armies together as is now the case at
Tien Tsin. Under the walls of that grim
old Chinese town, English and American.
French and German. Japanese and Rus
sian, Austrian and Italian fought side by
side, hereditary enmities forgotten, ven
geance in their hearts and the great
world's approval at their backs. At Leip
sic, in 1813. Napoleon, with his French

In the Crimean war. Russia stood against
English. French, Turkish and Italian
armies, hut in none of these conflicts were
so many or such heterogeneous forces
brought together as in China yesterday.
The battle of Tien Tsin might well be

KITCHENER’S ADVENTURE.
The Strong Man of the British Array
and Klp Perils In Egypt.
From the London Mall.
It is no exaggeration of public opinion
to say that in Lord Kitchener rests much
of the country’s hope that a different com
plexion will be speedily put on the state
of affairs in South Africa. Recent events
have demonstrated that a strong man is
wanted there. Lord Kitchener is a strong
man. A great authority has pronounced
him as “the most prominent man in the
British army.” He has certrainly done
much in recent years, and done it all well.
He Is a living contradiction of the eaying
that “a man who never makes a mistake
never makes anything.” Ijord Kitchener
has yet to make his mistake, albeit he has
made much.
Lord Kitchener's career in Egypt was
an unbroken succession of triumphs. He
had some of the most difficult problems
to tackle, and he overcame them all, his
crowning achievement being the smash
ing up of Mahdism at Omdurman.
Throughout that campaign he proved him
self n commander, an organizer and e
strategist of the finest quality, although
it is none too often that a combination
of these qualities is found in one man.
Lord Salisbury has described him as "a
singular master of desert warfare.”
Cool, daring, resourceful and possessed
of a wonderful power of self-restraint,
Lord Kitchener is the very man for the
position he will flill in South Africa. He
is not the soldiers' idol that Lord Roberts,
his great chief, is. because Kitchener nev
er spares his men; nor, for that matter,
does he spate himself. One a project is
afoot, once a goal is to be reached, Kitch
ener means to get there. He does not con
sider the mere cbmfort of his men. Each
unit he looks upon as part of a vast ma
chine. which must not stop until he gives
the order. If anything interferes with the
smooth working of that machine it must
be removed immediately. He has been
known to dispense with the servtces of
men who for years have worked tinder
him well and faithfully until some tem
porary indisposition has laid them low
They were no longer of use, so they had
to go.
It is hardly to be wondered at that a
man of this hard, cold, calculating disposi
tion is not loved, and "Tommy” will never
make a "pet” of Lord Kitchener. But he
admires him and places Implicit faith In
his Judgment, ancl would follow him
wherever he chose to go. And what more
would a commander have?
An authority who was with Ktchener
in the Soudan wrote of him: “It appears
to be the Sirdar's polldy to advance de
liberately step by slop, to make his poei
tlon secure after each step before ventur
ing on another, to run no unnecessary
risks, but at the right moment to etrjke
hard with unexpected suddenness, and to
follow up the blow with energy." Lord
Kitchener is obviously the right man in
the right place in South Africa.
Every soldier hopes for a “chance,’ ar.d
many hope In vain. Kitchener's chance

came in 1882, when the rising tide of
Mahdism threatened to sweep from end to
end of the Soudan. But It was suspected
that the false prophets successes were
being exaggerated, and young Kitchener
was deputed to make invest ig a not is and
report. He dressed himself as an Arab
trader and entered Omdurman. taking his
life in his hand. He went among the
wild K aba blah and treat.‘herous pachas,
who, had they once penetrated his dis
guise, would have shown him little mercy.
One day he witnessed an execution of a
supposed spy in the town. The poor
wretch was subjected to such torture that
Kitchener procured a tiny phial of cyanide
of potassium, which he concealed about
his person. As he subsequently remark
ed to a brother office, "Death at their
hands I did not fear; in fact, I expected
it. But such a death!”
For two years Kitchener lived under
such conditions, never knowing w hen he |
might be brought face to face with a vi
olent death, but all the while communi
cating to the heads of the Egyptian intel
ligence department Information of the ut
most importance regarding the Mahdi and
his movements. So trict|v was his iden-
tity preserved that the British troops did
not know him. and a “Tommy” on one oc
casion flung a brickbat at the brave young
officer, whom he mistook for a “blooming
nigger.” The blow’ inflicted a rather nasty
scalp wound, and had the additional re
sult of creating a proverb: “Throw a stone
at a nigger and you’ll hit the Sirdar.”
Now that the Roentgen rays are being
employed with satisfactory results in our
field hospitals, it is improbable that any
officer will have such an experience ns be
fell Kitchener about this time. During a
skirmish near Suakin. Maj. Kitchener
was hit in the side of the face by a stray
bullet. The missile made a clean w*ound.
which soon healed, but the bullet itself
could not be found.
In those days, of course, the x-rays had
not been discovered, and the doctors hod
not the aid of the wonderful apparatus
in their search for the missing buHet.
Eevntually they came to the conclusion
that, unknown to the patient, it had work
ed itself out and been lost. A member
of the Medical Staff Corps, Sergt. Bilton,
was in attendance on the injured officer,
whom he one day induced to eat a beef
steek. In the midst of the meal Maj.
Kitchener stopped suddenly. “Bilton,” he
said, “if there was no bone In that steak.
I’ve swallowed that bulle't.” And so he
had.
Adventures by the score happened to
Kitchener in the exciting role of detective
of spies. Ori one occasion two suspected
Arabs were brought into the Rritish camp
and confined in the guard tent. Shortly
afterward they w'ere joined by a third.
The trio held an animated conversation
for some minutes, and then, mudh to the
astonishment of the sentry, the latest ar
rival stepped forward and said in indis
putable English: “All right, sentry, I'm
going to the General.” The third prisoner
w’as Kitchener, who by this daring ruee.
coupled with a perfect knowledge of na
tive languages, confirmed the suspicion
that the fellows were dangerous spies.
They were promptly shot.
Perhaps the most striking trait in Ix>rd
Kitchener’s character is his disinclination
to put a married man in a position of re
sponsibility under him. He appears to
hold the opinion that matrimony interferes
with business. He hacks up his precept
by example, for, as everybody knows,
Ijord Kitchener is a bachelor. Like many
a notable personage before him, he does
not shine in the society of women. It is
related that on one occasion he was pre
sented to a certain well-known countess at
Cairo, and opened the conversation by
asking: "Do you find Cairo nice at this
season of the year?” “Delightful,” she
replied. There was o pause of five min
utes, during which Kitchener tugged
thoughtfully at his mustache. Then he
said: “Ah, I am glad!” Lord Kitchener
does not claim to be “a ladies’ man.”
—Not alone In the Wild West do men
bring live slock into barrooms. A man
from the country walked into a saloon
in Bangor, Me., the other day leading a
young heifer. The animal stood quietly
while its owner drank two glasses of beer
and then walked sedately out with him.
