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.” ••The Allies.” From ihe Chicago News.

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 Old I leer* and gores—,\o C ure, Xo t*n y. Your druggist will refund your money If Pazo Ointment falls to cura you. *oc. —ad. 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.
