AMATEUR CRACKSMEN.
Strange Blindness of Connecticut
Villagers.
THE CRIMES OF A DECADE.
.Esthetic Tastes Exercised Upon
Other People's Property.
Nf.w London. Conn., August 11,1879.
Connecticut has added some remarkable chapters
to criminal history within the post year, but none
uau^ci luitu mo SMirjr UL VUC buiviuk U4 ?
which has for nearly a decade pu/.aled the denisous
of two pretty little villuges in this vicinity?Mystic
Bridg> and Noank. They are ou Long Islaud bound,
between the mouth of the Thames River and btoniugtun.
The tlrst named lines both banks of the
Mystio River with pretty residences and the
latter occupies a rocky promontory lying at
the mouth of the river. The majority of
the inhabitants lead a seafaring lite, and
flatting is au important industry, especially in
Noank. Both places are fairly sprinkled with the
summer residences of New York merchants and tho
homes of men who havo retired with a competence
from life afloat or ashore. As in other similar New
England villages, everything goes on in a methodical,
quiet way; disturbances are almost uukuowu,
and the solitary constable would mould had he no
other occupation than his official duties.
A SOCIAL VUZZLK.
Yet a mystery of a criminal nature has worried
the people, off and ou, for nearly ten years.
Burglaries havo occurred, aud wcro wholly
incomprehensible. Suspicious strangers had not
been seeu in town and there were no towupeople
upon wnoin suspicious could fairly rost. Bator on,
dwellings were burned and there wcro evidences
that they hud first been stripped of their valuables.
All these crimes were perpotrQted iu the night time,
uud the dwellings entered were invariably those that
were temporarily unoccupied. Families went off
visiting, and, in the usual security of such hamlets,
bolted tlieif doors, as tho phrase goes, with a "boiled
currot."
It was uoticed that these crimes occurred only at
iufrequeut intervals, and often so far apart that one
had passed out of memory before the uoxt was reported.
Witbiu the past two years, however, the
necessity of detection became more evident. The
rascals were becoming boldur and thoir avarice led
to more frequent midnight raids. In Noank the
bouses of Messrs. Packer, Brooks and Ratlibnne were
robbed, uud tho tatter's was burned. Iu Mystic
Bridge, but a mile away, the thieves rilled the dwellings
of Captain Bldrnige, Mr. Bngbeo and
Air. Mallcry (the latter one of the firm I
owning tliu Kuw York anil Galveston line
ot steamers); Charles P. Chlpiuan's grocery
uuil Minor's drug Hiore. I'liu ilwelling of Mr.
lleynold wan robbed and afterward tired. Tbe citlxeus
finally became aroused anil aeveral months ago
uiude some sort ot a feeble inquiry. resulting ill tbe
belief tliut tlie depredations were committed by
(bicvcs who lauded on tlie shores from boats by
sight and by daylight had put miles between thein
md the scene ot their crimes. Deputy Kheritf Morris,
of Mew Loudon, did not ugree with this theory, but
aftor some investigation on his own account?tor
Ihe towns would offer no incentives to detective
ikill?advised the residents to look around among
their own people tor the culprits.
WHAT A FUMKltAL REVEALED.
The suggestion was almost pooh-poohed at first,
but suspicious that it might be of some importance
were curiously aroused as long ago as last iVurnary.
One Mrs. Tift died in Mystic Bridge, and among
tlie attendants at the lnneral was a lady whose
house had beeu robbed. Shu observed in Mrs. Tilt's
house wearing apparel and other articles which she
believed hud beeu stolen. But the Tifts stood so
well in the community that tlie lady mamtaiued a
discreet tongue, excepting among her intimates.
Borne lime alter this the Noankurs began to look suspiciously
on tlie movements of a young man named
W. Ira Chescboro. lie has always been known in
this section as "Ira," but may be kuowu
by his other name in circles where he has "fenced"
hts booty. Oheaehoro la of good family, about thirty
, years of ugc, aud has been tor souio time married to
a daughter of Cantaiu Lord who owns a fishing
schooner, and in suiulucr lives at East Marion near
Greeuport, L. L, and in the wiuter season at Stapleton,
H. L Chescboro has generally been regarded as
a steady fellow, although it was a surprise to his
neighbors how he supported a family by the little j
labor that he perfortueti in town, or the little money i
earned in occualonal sealing or fislilug voyages. When :
suspicion first began to point to luui, it was noted us :
a significant tact that fie had long been on intimate
terms with Bauisl L. Tift, a young man of the same
age, at whose house tbe stolen goods were seen on
tfie occasion of the lunerul above referred to. Tift
is a "Miss Nancy" aori of a chap, with slihgt form,
a feminine voice and feminine ways, lie has almost
a pussiou for art, and his house bears traces of-his
refined tastes. Two curious things reported of him
are that he has a penchant tor spending his time in
crocheting or painting in oil (pictures said to be execrable,
by the way), aud that Lis x>a?slon for artistic I
surroundings was curried to such an extent that he I
veil put lace curtains at tlie windows of the garret, i
AM EUCUAMT INTERIOR.
A visitor to Tift's house in describing it* furniture
says :?"It wus a gem in the way of artistic and
cuatly embellishment. Costly velvet carpels covered
tlie floors, the Auuat and luoat delicate of laces
hung at the window*, anil coatly ruga, line atituary ,
mud meritorious painting* adorned the walla and 1
bracket*. Even tlie unoccupied attic prcaenlcd a
aeeuc of elegance. There, a* elsewhere in the house, !
the furnishing* and appointments wero union.*, !
costiy and luxurious. Tift is a man who delights
in elegance ami lu such adornments and occupations
as women iancy. He crochcled, pieced silken btdijuilts,
painted dainty little laudacape* and flower
pieces, and did certain kinds of needlework. Hih ;
lemiuine. inatiucts led -him to se.uct the beautifnl as
the object ot his depredations. The wonder is. Inasmuch
as his house wss lurniahed with goods stoieu '
troiu hi* or his molher'a visitors, tliat none of them
recognised their property when catling upon this
audacious burclar. (lu his table and sideboards
stood six or eight allver lee-pitcher* which he had ,
aloleu from neighboring houses. Uroi.au statuettes
and ornament* gotten iu like manner flaunted dettunec
t<> suspicion from the tables, shelves or cmbinuts
whereon they stood."
A * l HANOI. COMPANION Stilt*.
Upon Tilt and cheseboro the crimes have finally j
been tixeit. It la a si range companionship. Tut, j
weak, tcuiluiuo and vucllialiug; Chrs. boro, energetic,
keen and scll-reludit. A lew day* ago the
crash came upon them, aud both are now reposing
tu tlie New Loudon Jail, A aimultaueoiis descent on
the home* of both was decided upou. ChcNcboro
was louud at ills house, ami up .11 searching (lie
premises stolen goods, valued at nearly I'J.uOU, were
recovered. Tilt was also tumid at home, au I stolen
goods were discovered?lace curtains on the window*,
statuary aud article* ol verm on the mantels
and on his table, uud silverware, worth ruliy #7oo. !
'This waa In daily use, and the tastes of the
tiilef were also evidcut in the luxurious furnishing
of the apartments with urtlcle* which ho bod stolen j
in the village. Even w ith those evidences of guilt '
before him the otUcer acted upou the suggestion* of
n companion, a prominent rltix..n ol the place, and 1
satlslie.1 himselt with merely sumtnotilng t'lit to apI

t is almost unnecessary to record th.it ho did not
appear, hut he was captured by Deputy HliortlT Alien,
of Mystic, 011 lual Saturday, iu Webster, Ma..*., where
he had lied ami had found employment. Ho waa
brought back ami lodged 111 jail, and to day, ut his

lying 111 jail in dcluult of $:i,(Mio boml*, bis uncle,
Mr. Cbuioboro, a wealthy resident of Htoninglon,
having once given bonds and then surrendered the
culprit.
WHY Tirr KKIT TUB UOODB.
Tift promptly "squeaicd win u arrested; out It la
believed that liu has kept back a part ot tliu truth,
lie admitted the robbery ut several dwellings, and
did not aw m to think that be lind acted very rare- i
lessly in keeping ho uiurh of the atoleu goods on hla
own premier*. In explanation be eaid that some of
the bronze*. lacuH, he., were ao hundaeuie that he
ronld not beui to part with them, lie colifeaaed hla
collusion With Oheeeboro, hut poaltivoly retna<dto |
Implicate any other partioa. It la almoHt certainly
known, however, that they had accomplice* who
helped them to dispose of aoruo of the
totuii property. Cheseboro, It la said, weut
to New York occasionally, and the belief ,
1* that hi* object wa? to arrange for tho sale of the [
goods, which, ou hi* return, were sent by train, or, 1
luore likely, through aoine accomplice on one of the
email Noank Ushiug voaaala which frequently put in
at New York to Hull their cargoes.
Cheseboro i? deflant, and, ttndrr the advice of
tounaol, t'oitiNca to converse about the robberies,
lie *at tn Ina cell to-day when the Hkiiald correspondent
called and was apparently busy with hla
tbought*. lie is of medium build, with oruwn eyes, {
laslilonahly clipped short hair, a jaunty iiiuatacho
and u trunk, intelligent face. In response to an Inquiry
he said:?
"1 don't chi-o to talk about thla thing just now. 1
Whatever good* wore louud at my house I got trout
lift by purchase, anil aa to the other ohargea against
Uie, i think tliey will have a nice time proving
them."
"Hut don't you know that Tilt has confeaaedT"
we* asked.
An annoyed expression passed over tjheaeboro a
face, and he angrily rejoined, "Wall, he's a bigger
tool than 1 thought lie was!"
"lla makes a strong story against you."
"That's natural enough, replied Chrseboro.
"He'll lie to save blin-cli, The lellow never had
tuy nerve anyway. 1 guess 1 won't any anything
NEW YOl
else. Botter wait till the trial coincs on. It will bo
tiiao enough to tulle afterward."
gl<K?U MANAUKMEST.
Tlio apprehension of the parties bat bocn very
strangely managed. The local officers showeii slight
interest autl tliu principal work ut invcstlgat.on has
been done by Pcpnty Sheriffs Morris and Alieu. A
representative of the insurance companies recently
iuvustigat d the eases ot incendiarism and proposed
to offer a reward if tbe town would join. But tbo
cautious and economical Selectmen declined. No incentive
to tlic investigation 01 the robberies bus been
offered, and tbe strangest tbiug is, tb it after tbe arreats
tbe persona who bad been robbed visited (be
bouses of 1'ttt and Cheseboro and helped themselves,
without interference by the otllcers, to such articles
as they claimed as helougiug to theiu. Tbe property
recovered is valued at fii.UUO, and mnch more, it is
said, lias been shipped to New York and disposed of
there through Cheseboro.
A TiWIFTY THIEF.
MABBY1SG HIS LADY LOVE ANI) STABTINQ IN
BUSINESS WITH ILL-GOTTEN GOODS.
XarOLEOXYlLLK, La.. August B, 1879.
About a mouth ago a young man. who said liis

place aiter, ?? it i? wii'i; , ruDuiuf uia euiyiuyei,
Mr. A. 3. Chuppins of about f 1 ??. He canie hero

iuto the tavor of Mr. Chapping that he left him iu
charge of hia entire business while ho took a trip to
St. Louis for the bonelit of his health. During his
absence, it is alleged, Qouauti packed up au assortment
of tho best goods, including a large stove and
furniture, shipped them to DonaidHonvllle, collected
all ho could, sold goods lor any price to get the
money and lelt, saying ho was going to Doualdsouvi
lie to coleect the money for the goods sold,
lie borrowed a buggy and took CUappina' horse.
When he got to Donaldsoiivllle lie represented to tho
hotel keeper tiiat ho wus a Frenchman, that his
father was wealthy, and that he was travelling for
his health, lie ordered the goods tiiat he had sent
there to be shipped up lied ltivcr to a place called
Hlmsport. The Postmawter at Simsport was written
to and a description ot tho young man sent. He replied
that he was there, married, and that he and his
father-in-iaw wore keeping a small store ucar tUet e.
It appears that the relluw cauie truiu there when ho
came here, and, having made the acquaintance of the
young lady, returned and married her.
Mr. Chappins, on his return, sent a deputy sherifl,
Mr. i'ete Landry, alter Him. lie returned with him
to Donaldsouvilie lust night and will he here during
the day.
Mr. (Jhapplus' safe is a combination, and ninny of
hU customers were anxious to see it opened, because
they had special deposits therein; but everything
valuable had been taken.

THE CHOI'S IN MICHIGAN.
[From the Detroit (Mich.) Free Press, August 9.]
The Fire J'rem to-day publishes letters from over
one hundred places in the grain growing suction of
the Statu, representing forty-one loading wheat producing
counties. The results are in reply to inquiries
as to the probable acreage, yield per acre
condition and general prospects of wheat, corn,
oats and potatoes in each county, as compared with
last year. The replies received speak volumes for
tlio agricultural psospects of this State and indicate
that the ylold of all of the above mentioned products
will be in excess of that of last year. From the
Secretary of Mate's report, already published, it is
shown that the acreage sown to wheat this spring
is iU.acres larger man mat or last year. jrr?u>
tome ot the replies it woulit seem that tin* estimate
is below, ra.lier than above, the true mark.
According to the letters there is a decreased acreage
iu llarry. Hillsdale, Ingham, Jurkaou, Lapeer,
St. Joaupli, V..U Huron and Allegan counties.
Duo report trum lona county places the acre- !
age a tritle lower thau last yoar, while another
correspondent claims it la greater. From the Su- i
pervisors' report it would appear that about one
thousand more acres were sown this year than
last. Ot the above mentioned counties, the yield per
acre is larger, except iu Jackson and Ingham counties.
The other counties to show a decrease in
yield, per acre, are Livingston, Mecosta, Mouroe,
Oakland and Washtenaw. In each of the last mentioned
counties the decrease is reported as small,
while the acreage is enough larger to more
tlinu make up lor the dedcieiicy caused by
the lighter yield. Considering the .Supervisors
report, which shows an increase of 70,775 acres sown,
and the following riports, which show hut two comities
having a decreased ncieago that is not more than
made Up by Increased yield per acre and no county
having a lighter yield that Is not compensated by an
enlarged acreage, it would appear Hint the yield ot
wheat this > ar w 11 not tall short of tll.uoo.oou bushels,
which is l,5o0,874 Inlands luorc than estimated by
tho Supervisors ae lost year's crop. AU things considare
i, it is sate to say that the above estimate wdl
tall short ratl.ee than go above the actual yield. Of
the many reports received, the most unfavorable oue
eoiues irom Clio, (icuesoe county, while the most
eucoiiragiug one hails troni Hoscomiuon county, es- l
tin.sting the yluld of wheat to be twice as
huge as lust year. From many localities it is
staled that, on harvesting, the expectations of the
farmers have been more than realized, the straw
proving lighter and the berry much sounder and
plumper than hud been previously anticipated. The
munition ot Wheat as to soundness and plumpness
is, with very few exceptions, reported flue; better,
in many localities, than before known. Millers write
tn.it It is ot a far better grade tor the utaktug of '
llour than that raised last year. Iu color it is generally
reported darker. Corn iu many localities was j
r. planted. hut the crop ou the whole promises to be
above rathrr than below an average. A houutilul |
yield of oats la reported in moat counties aud pro*- j
pccts are ravorsblo for more than an average yield.
1'otatoe have sullcred in aouie sections tor the want
ot ram. but the yield, a a tar a* lop rtod, la generally
large. Small irult* are promised In abundance in
uiuat fruit gcowiug localities.
EMIGRATION TO WISCONSIN.
Among tin) visitor* at Caatlc Garden yesterday was
Mr. J. A. iiecher, of Wisconsin, president ot tho
Hoard of Immigration of that btutc. In oouversatiou

In thia connection it may be atatcd that the emigration

au<l it's u sight worth seeing when they leave with
their little buudles and babies," said Miss Ella
Huntington, of thi Wilson Mission, to a Herald '
reporter u few days ago. Miss Huntington, who is a
niece of Bishop Huntington, has devoted her life to
practical mission work in this city, and the result of
her labors is visible in the homes of hundreds of
poor people, especially on the east side of the city.
The children are taught not only to read, writo and
cipher, but (by the means of miniature kitchen
utensils and household furnituro) to keep house.
Shortly before nlno o'clock the little girls? ,
upwards of one hundred in number?who
had been selected to go assembled in tho
Mission House, No. PJ9 St. Mark's place. Some |
simple exercises were performed, and when Mr. j
Hchlegal, who has charge of the transportation of the
children from New York to the Summer Home, arrived
they were formed into lino. Tho prospect of
a wi nk's reunitn from ht-iek walls, dark rooms and
lieated pavements gladdened the hearts and faces of j
many, hut there wore others whoso sunken eyes, |
attenuated forms and wrinkled brows attested to ]
neglect and cruelty far beyond the measure of their
strength and years. As they passed down the stairway
Miss Huntington bade them all eoodby, and to
"Dittle Barbara," the youugestof theur, said, "Don't
forget to write me a letter, dear." Barbara was
clinging closely to a homemade rag baby, which,
sad to record, met with a tatal accident later in the
day. The procession trooped along Kighth street to
Third avenue, and when it dawned upon their
mimls that they were to he whirled
along through the air on the "I." road,
their delight knew no bounds. At the station it was
found that three of the number whose names had
boon called were missing. But they were gathered
into the fold at Bath lato in the atternoon, having
been sent on l>y kind people wno could not bear to
see them disappointed. It was indeed a study to
s<-o these almost outcast children as'they peered out
of the windows ot the cars as the train sped 011 to
the Battery. No painted scenes or mimic representation
could' have caused them halt the wonderment
excited by this panoramic glance at real life, and
the rapid changes were rellected in their sympathetic
luces. Here and there only could be found a sullen
one. It was curious to hear the children make use
of a peculiar German idiom. "I live with my second
father and my second mother," said a tidy little girl.
The explanation of this was thut her mother hud
died and her lather married; then her lather bad
died and her stepmother married again.
COUNTUY SMUTS.
When the Battery was reached there was a universal
shout of "O the trees, the trees!" uud a glimpse
of the blue waters of the buy beyond opened up to
tbeir already quickened senses au idea of what was
yet to come*. At the South Ferry the company was
joined by Sisler liebecca, of the Holy Innocent
Guild, a charitable orgauizatiou couuected with
"The lilt tie Church Around the Corner." Sister Rebecca
had forty-two little ones in her charge, two of
whom she carried aboard the boat in her arms. The

Just as the last strain of the well known Sunduy

PORCELLO ARRAIGNED.
the assassin'S COUNSEL ENTERS A PLEA OF
not UUILTT, which MAY liE changed TODAY.
There was a buzz of excitement in the Court ot
General Sessions yesterday uiorniug when it was
announced that Francesco Porcello. the Italian
ctiargcd with the assassination ot Michael Bolender,
the forciuau in Slausou's candy tactory> at Church
and l)ey streets, upou the 24th day of July last, was
to bo arraigned to plead to an indictment tor murder
in the lkrst degree. Promptly at eleven o'clock Judge
Gilders leave took his seat. A few moments later
Assistant District Attorney Dell put in an appearance.
The crier having opened tho Court Clerk
liall said, "Put Francesco Porcello to the bar." lint
a moment elapsed and lio stood before tho bar of
Justice. Porcello was poory but. neatly clad. His
features were by no moans repulsive and indicated
an) tiling but those ot an assassin.
'1 he charge contained tu the indictment was comrauutcatcd
to him through an interpreter, ami when
called upon by the clerk to declare his guilt or innocence
of thw charge Porcello turned to his counsel,
Mr. William F. kiutzing. who, was standing by his
side, aud riveting his eyes upon huu siood mute.
Mr. Kiutxiug, addressing the Court, said he was not
prepared at this time to say whether or no a special
plea would bo tiled to tho Indictment. He desired,
therefore, to have entered pro forma a plea of not '
guilty, with leave to withdraw tiiat pica at a future
tunc and internosc such oilier h ea as eouu-el
deeuiod advisable. Assistant District Attorney Hell
said lie thought well of the suggestion,
but asked that ho be required to tile
the special pica by to-morrow, us ho might
move the trial at the present term. Mr. KinUiug,
iu reply, said it would be impossible for the deieuce
to be prepared at the proseut torin. Judge Ullder
leeve ordered counsel to plead by to-morrow, at
which time the day of trial could be fixed. Porcello
was ban<lcufled and taken buck to the Tombs, followed
by a largo crowd. At the time ot the arraignment,
Victoria, his wife, was in court, carrying m
her arms a bright-eyed little boy. their only child.
Hlie was tlic centre of attraction, and practical sympathy
w as expressed for her situation by a number
ot persons banding money to her as slio was leaving
the building.

JEWS AND G UNTILES.
An excited contention ha* arisen in White Plains
between the Hebrew and other tradesmeu of that
village. It appears that the Jews have been in the
habit of koepiug their places of business open on
Sundays, aud thus monopolizing a great dual of the
trade which the others claim they would get in the
cour>e oi the week, and upon the complaint of sonte
storekeepers one of the Hebrews, n uued Adolph
l'ollnck, was arrested a few day* ago by UiBoer
A. Mabee, 011 a warrant issued by Jnstiee of
the Peace VV. Cochran, charged with koopiug
open his place ot business ou the Sabbath,
contrary to law. <<n the other hand, a number ot
Jews complain that others than the people of their
rucr h ive b -eu constantly violating the same law
without interference and ask to have equal justice
mete J out t> thorn. Under these circumstances the
authorities have given notice to the eltect that all
offenders against ti.e law requiring a proper observance
ot the Sabbath will be called to account. Tbs
