Oar Picnic.
By Thelme Welle, Aged t Tears. ISOt II
Street, South Omaha. Bed Side.
Wa went ta a picnic last summer. Our
cousins came In and went with. us. We
went to Pyndkssie park. Before lunch
my coubu and I went sfter some water.
When we came back eur lunch was
ready. There were a tot of people there,
it waa the church picnic, '
After lunob we went after some shells.
When we got sll the shells we wanted
We ran races. My face got ao red. It
avenue was situated. I answered promptly
saying, "As I am a stranger here. I am
not able to answer your question."
He then said. "I guess Its down there."
pointing In the direction which I had
started to follow. Without any farther
conversation we walked down the street
HS was a peculiar man. He waa pol
ished and his clothes were clean, fashion
able and tidy. He waa nice appearing
and good looking, but the way ha spoke,
tha words he used, tha way that he ex
pressed himself and something In his
fare led me to be suspicious.
He resumed the conversation by asking
"are you an athlete?"
I, rather surprised, answered, "I have
been In one athletic meet."
Putting his arm over my shoulders he
complimented me about being stout, but
his real object la doing this wss to feet
of my Inside coat pocket. When he had
done this, he artfully managed to feel
of my hip pockets.
Heemlngty satisfied with his Investiga
tion of my pockets ha Invited me to
go down town with him. I courteously
answered, "my uncle will take when
ever I with to go."
By this time we had wslked two blocks.
I began to fear that this pickpocket
would lead ma to some dark alley
where ha could easily rob me.
Trying to leave him as soon as possible.
I said, "I must go home for It Is dinner
time," .
Leaving me ha said. "I hope to meet
you agsln."
For what happened next Imagine a tri
angular block. I met tha pickpocket at
one eorner from which wa walked to an
other when I left him. He, then walked
to the third corner and started toward
our meeting place. As t noticed this I
did the same, retracing the path he
and I had followed. I ran as fast as
I could ao aa to beat htm there. On
reaching the place, almost exhausted, 1
told the story briefly to a cop, and I had
no mora than finished then the pick
pocket appeared. The policeman seised
him snd gsva him a cool ride through
the streets of Chlesgo.
