THE GREAT ENGLEWOOD ROB
BERY.
ID you ever think how a
burglar, who breaks into
your house regards you?
You play an important part
in his scheme of things, it is
true, but he hasn't a very
high opinion of you, at
least of your fighting abilities. The
thieves who broke into the house of
Banker Baldwin, at Englewood, N. J..
a few years ago and perpetrated cruel
outrages upon every member of the
family had no fear of dogs or guns.
They did their work with fiendish
precision and congratulated them
selves that they left no clue. But
the teeth marks left on one of the
gang by a faithful bull dog, who died
.defending his mistress, proved their
undoing. Now let the principal ac
tors tell the story.
DANNY M'BRIDE'S STORY.
In the days when masked burglaries
were in vogue, and all the villages
within one hundred miles of New
York were considered by these spe
cial students of the dark lantern and
jimmy as the proper places for them
to visit, there was no more desperate
gang in the world than that led by
Danny McBride, who was a sort of
a hero among the lower class of citi
sas in the old Second Ward. Danny
started out when quite a young fellow
as a river pirate, and was just get
tina a knowledge of the business
when Jerry McAuley, who was after
ward converted and founded a mis
mSon, was in his former glory and had
pretty nearly all the ship captains on
the river front terrorized. There was
aot the police protection at that time
that there is today, and no man's
property, or even life, was safe after
dark in certain sections of West,
oeoth and Front streets.,
DaIny followed thieylng on the bay
ad river front for several years, but
lhe business was not very remunera

Swas the referee, and he was in sym
pathy with McBride. Hicks seemed
to be getting a trifle the best of the
argument, and Morrissey interfered.
Then on the Morton street pier oc
tarred one of the bloodiest fights that
ever took place in the Ninth Ward.
McBride went to the hospital covered
with wounds and glory, and it was
three months before he was able to
get out.
'That Morrisey fight." said Mc
Bride, "was the worst thing that ever
hapened to me, for while I was in
the hospital the police got in on the
gang and landed Dobbs, Kelly and

committees went out at night with
rifles to hunt for crooks and we pulled
off for a while as it never pays to be
i a target even for a bad hunter.
"While laying off I picked up a pa
per and read of a swell wedding at
Englewood at the house of a man
named Baldwin one of the wealthiest
ducks in the neighborhood and some
L fellow had figured up the presents in
jewelry and silver plate as being
worth $200,000. I showed it to Jeff.
and said that we ought to give the
i place a call before any of the pres
ents were sold. He agreed with me
and we sent Forbes to take a look at
the place. He reported that the job
was as easy as finding the stuff on
the road, and the night after the wed
ding we landed in Englewood in a
i grocery wagon. Three or four dogs
were roaming about the grounds when
we got there, and it took an hour or
two to quiet these with some condi
tion powders and meat, which we al
ways carried on these trips.
"When we got alongside of the
house I was afraid of alarm bells, so
I sent Wiley to the top of the piazza
to try his luck. The window catch
was a double-ender, which could not
be worked with a blade, and he had
to cut out a pane of glass with a dia
mond point. The window opened in
to a vacant room, and we all got into
the house that way. We put on our
masks and started through the houie.
We struck old Baldwin's room first,
and he actually showed fight. He tried
to get to a knob which probably was a
signal of some kind, and Jeff put him
to sleep with a sandbag. They were
all fighters in the house, and a young
fellow shot Jeff through the arm in
the hall. He was put to sleep before
he could do any more shooting. The
women-three of them-had to be
tied up and gagged to keep them still.
"When we thought that everybody
was safe we divided up and went oi
a hunt for the swag. -Forbes went to
the front of the house, and In a few
seconds I heard some terrible growls
and a lot of things upsetting. I ran
to the room, and there was Forbes
havlng it out with a bull mastif on
the floor, with a ouang woman sit
ting on the bed and urging the beast
on. She was a beauty and not scared
a bit. The mastiff was getting the
best of the fight and had a grip on
Forbes' neck which was making him
look sick. I ulled my gun and or
dered the girl to call qi the dog, but
she defied me and told me to blase
away. I saw the bluf would not
work, so I got ,ut my old blackjack,
an ugly-looking thing, and hit the
beast a clip on the skull that knocked
the life out of him.
"The girl flew at me when I banged
the dog, lhL a wild animal, and I had
all I could do to hold her without
hurting her. I would not have
harmed a hair of that spunky girl's
head for a million, but I had to gag
her for safety. I always felt sorry
for her as she lay looking at the dog,
whloh was prorably her pet, sad
made a good fight to defend her.
"We had easy sailing after that,
and in every room there was a lot of
stuff wjiich we put into bags. All of
it looked good and was very heavy.
There was any quantity of Jewelry
lying around, and in a small safe
which we had no trouble In forcing
with a wedge, there was a load of
diamonds which hal been described
in the papers. We took our time in
packing everything up in good shape,
and after a good meal and a big
draught of the old man's wine cellar,
we quit the place. Harper was wait
ing down the road a bit with the
wagon, and we loaded all the stuff
into it,"

"who did the work at Baldwin's man

A friend of mine who kept a liquor
store in Greenwich street told me of
a watch which he had bought from a
fellow who looked like a tramp about
a week before, and it had all the
marks of one of the watches which
had been stolen. I took the watch to
Mr. Baldwin, and he said that it war
his property.
"I made up my mind that the tramp
did not have any hand in the rob
bery, and had got possession of the
watch in some other way. I hunted
high and low for this fellow, in the
cheap dives, and finally landed a fel
low answering to his description. I
took him to the liquor dealer, and he
was fully identified. I locked hilz up
and squeezed him very hard for In

found the watch in the street, but
after he was put through the mill.
and charged with killing a man to
get the time piece, he admitted that
he stole it from a man who wal ly
ing drunk in a hallway in Greenwich.
street.
"From the description that he gave
me and the knowledge of crooks
which I had, I concluded that it was
probably Danny McBride. I dropped
downtown, and, after hanging around
for a few days, I felt satisfied that
Danny was in hiding for something. I
could not find him in any of his
haunts, and I knew from his friends
telling me that they had not seen him
that he was keeping out of sight for
something. I had never known that
Danny was in the house-cracking busi
ness, as he had always figured as a
river pirate, and a bad one at that.
"One evening, while going through
Bleecker street, I met Frank Carroll,
and he 1l me an amusing story
about a v v oo woman, who sold
charms to ae superstitious negrees.
She was from Cuba, spoke Spanish
and had wonderful powers. She could
destroy witches rho followed ne
groes, and could cure diseases by the
laying on of her hands. Carroll said
that there was a report going around
among the negroes that she had
healed the wounds and destroyed the
evil spirit which was bothering a ne
gro at a single sitting, for which ser
vlcp she had received a fabulous sum.
Ordinarily, I wouldn't have listened
to this story, but by some strange
Influence I associated this negro with
the one who had been bitten by the
dog at Baldwin's house.
"A good detective always run down
every idea, no matter how foolish it
may seem, and I decided to have a
chat with the voodoo doctress. She
lived in a rear building in Wooster
street, on the top floor, and received
me with a great show of suspicion.
I told her that I believed in her pow
er to kill my enemies, and I offered
to pay her liberally for one of her
enemy-destroying charms. Money
would not tempt her to do anything
for me, and she said that she could 3
not treat white people. It is against
the rules of these doctors to tllk
about a patient, but I told her about
the story I had heard about her get
ting a large sum of money for heal- I
ing one of her patient's wounds.
"In a few moments she limbered
up a little and made a statement that
fairly caused me to jump for joy. She
said that the voodoo which had this
man in his power had bitten him all
over the body, and his flesh was filled 9
with deep indentatiops from the
teeth. That was all she would say
then, and sloe would not tell who he
was or anything about him except
that he had gone to Cuba. I got a
detective from the Mercer street sta
tion to watch the house and in the =
evening I got Al Poender, a colored 'G
man who could be depended on to
play a part.
"He called upon the voodoo woman, F
and the first thing he did was to pull
out a big knife and sharpen it He a
said nothing while doing this and the I
woman became very uneasy. When U
he tot thr~ough the pantomime he a
told her in very solemn tones that i
the object of his visit was to kill her. I
He gave her one alternative. If she a
would tell him who the man was a
who called on her with the teeth
marks in his body, her life would be
spared and she would get $1,000 in
gold. Pender shook a bag full of
metal and gave her three minutes to
answer. She whispered the name of
Spanish Forbes. Pender knew that
he had the woman in his power, and
pressed the question, under the same
conditions, as to where Forbes was.
She told him he was in • certain cel
lar in Wooster street.
"I had heard all she said from the
hall. and at this point opened the
door. I ordered her to take me to
Forbes, but it took a prod from Pend
er's knife to make her more. She t
had told the truth. Forbes was In the E
cellar in a semi-delirious state from
morphine. He talked all the time, I
and I made the woman sit on his bed.
He seemed to be trightened when be

him at the lnIlewood robbery, and
when I told him that the woman had
told me everything, he gave the
names of Jeff Reynolds, Danny Mc
Bride, Sam Wiley and Ben Harper,

"That was enough for me, and I
sent Forbes to a hospital under

The soups taste pretty good some
times, but their sources are involved

they had been scrambled for by some
body, but who-who in the possesslon
of a sound reason could have scram
bled for what I had set before me un
der that name? Butter! I am wonder
ing why the taverns always keep it
until it is old. Fool that I am! As
if the taverns did not know that if It
was good it would be eaten, which is
not what they want. Then the waiters,

do with those napkinst Mention any
one thing of which you think you can
say with truth, "That they do not do."

No; give me home, or a home like
mine, where all is clean and sweet,
where coffee has pre4xisted in the ber

of the pigtails that dangled about the
