ONE TRICK OF a HOTEL BEAT.
"The strangest typo 01 hotel bent I
ever encountered," said a veterau New
Orleans bonifaoe, "walked into oui
house one evening about ten year? ? u .
registered, and went directly to bi.
room. I was at the desk and nolict ^
casually that be was a stout, good look
iug inao, and that he wore a hoi ds u
fall overcoat. He had no bagua^e and
paid in advance, remarking ttam he
had merely stopped over en route to
Galveston, and bis things ad eouo oi.
Next u O.ming there a terrific im?
roar. 'Jhe stranger, it seemed, had
been roboed. According to bis stun,
he woke up to find the room in disor?
der and his coat, vest and shirt gone.
He claimed to have had a gold watch,
Beveral hundred dollars and a nunilxr
of valuable papers in the pockets of his
coat and vest, and three diamond
studs in the shirt. I felt sure
the loss was exaggerated, but thert
was no doubt about the things being
gone, aud I was on the point of com?
promising the claim when my lawyer?
poor fellow, he's dead now?insisted on
holding him off until we investigated
his record. We soon found some of his
statements as to his antecedents to be
false, and he thereupon took the aiarm
and quietly departed. I never snv\
him again, but a hotel detective of m>
acquaintance encuuntered him in C: i
cago, and he told him how the seht mt
was worked. The beat had on neither
coat, vest nor shirt when he registered,
and had merely pinned a collar anu
cravat inside the lapels of bis overcoat
It was as simple as A, B C, and madt
out a clear case when ho raised thc
row in the morning.?[New Or.'eam
