WORE A MAGIC CAP.
Modern Alnddin's Purchase Brine
Him Purses of Gold
A Gel'man organist who ( ( ante to
St. Petersburg from Orenburg out
a ; visit 10 his relatives has met
with an adventure which caused
him to wonder whether he had
by ) accident been tranHl'led } into
the Iil\'StiC east and curried buck
"
10 the 1inws of the "Arabian
Nights. " ' 1'Ue ' story ) or his advent -
1 are might wlll be entitled "The
Magic Cap , " and it will be seen
that iI bears a strongrl'semblance
t.o the t history of Aladdin and his
wonderful lamp , sal s the Lon
don lail.
On arriving in St. Petersburg
the Ol'mau'isitor ' '
( \ purchased } u
( 'ap , which he thought would bp
amore l'omfol'ta1 than his ordinary -
nary headgear for exploring the
town t , with which he was not well
al'qllainted' . On arriving hotue in
the evening after his first da"8
sightseeing he was greatly HUl'-
pl'ised to rind in the Iol'kpts } of his
,
O\'I''oat two purses } , one of ' them
containing over flU.
Be marveled : greatly at his m.\'R'
serious luck , and sallied out again
next day. \Vhen he came hon1l'
again he found in his pockets sew
PI'al more purses , and begun to
feel alarmed. \\'hen on 1e t third
day hp cline home with another
windfall in his pockets he became
fl'ightened. But his 'j'eu10nie
common ( sense would not allow
him to believe in the existence of
magic , and he resolved to have reo
( 'OUl'se to the prosaic police force
in order to elucidate the mJ'stery.
AccordIngly he sought out thE :
chief of police and told him all thn
facts. The astute official exam
ined him closely as to the clothe
he was wearing , and particularly
us to the eat ) he had bought in St.
Petersburg , and on receiving his
replies ] sent the German with a policeman -
Heeman to the hatter's shop. l'he
shopkeeper explained } 1hat the
cap was of an exceptional kind.
Home time ago a man had called
on him and given him a large piece
of English cloth , out of which he
was to makp 15 caps of exact sim-
ilHl'itJ' On concluding this order
the hatter found that he had a
piece of C.10t-11 left over , and of this
he made an extra eap-the iden-
ncal t one which was sold to the
Gel'man.
On the strength of this infol'ma-
ion 1 the chief of police arranged
for a detective to accompany the
German on his nest day's sightseeing -
seeing , and the mystery of the
magic cap was cleared ) up. \Vutch-
ing his charge carefully , the ( dete
five saw various men lounge fur-
tivelJ' up to the German und transfer .
for something from their hands to
his pockets. On each occasion the
man thus discovered was arrest
ed , and in the course of two or
three days , during which the same
plan was pursued , the poHce made
prisoners of bout a dozen men
They turned out to be a gang of
pickpockets , and all wore a cup of
the same pattern as that purchased fi
chased bJ' the Gel'man. Their plan
