Tbe Thief Caught In the Act-Loud

' Rescue Escape or the Would-Be
Robber.
Yesterday morning, between the hours of
3 and 4 o'clock, the usaal quietude of that
TJOrtion of .thfi Htv - lv5nr and fkAinw" in-
4Ko ,r 1 xt- " -i
he neighborhood of Ninth and Chesnut
wbrecus was uroiten mio uy luc sunn noiesoi
alarm and distress evidently proceeding
from a female voice, among which could
fee distinguished the-, startling cries of
Fir6! MvrderP "Police!" "Help!"
etc. ;The entire neighborhood Was quickly
roused, for nothing can more rapidly and
Effectually awaken the dormant energies
and startle into activity the drowsy facul
ties than the cries of a female in distress, es
pecially when -beardat that "weird and
solemn period which immediately precedes
(lie first streaks of approaching dawn, when
all nature seems to be pervaded by a death
ly stupor.-, joined with, these cries,
or immediately a succeeding tnem, iwas
heard the quivering notes of a policeman's
whistle, summoning reinforcements. Sev
eral of the neighbors were quickly at the
scene of the outcries, which was found to
be at the residence of Mr; Geo. C. McDou-
gald, corner of Ninth and Chesnut streets. It
Seems that some thief had effected an en
trance into the house through a pantry win
dow and when discovered was in a room
It-
occupied by-one of the ladies of the family,
Actually having his hand upon her person
when she awoke. Of course she was terri
bly frightened, but stilj had the presence of
mind. to clutch, the brute, but he slipped
from her grasp. It was then that she star
ed the alarm, which was followed by the
apid and unceremonious exit of the thief
from the premises.
It appears that the same fellow, from the
( fa , ,
proken into the kitchen on the premises of.
Jr. Max Engel, immediately opposite Mr.
McDougald's, a short time previously, but
lad been "detected and driven off. This
act had come to the knowledge of Police-
taan E. F. Martin, vho had walked up in
that direction, passing the residence of Mr.
$1. and being nearly to the corner of the
iiest block, at Ninth street and McCumber's
alley, when he heard the alarm. He has
tened to the spot and thoroughly ransacked
ihe premises, while persons were stationed
around the lot to prevent the egress of the
thief, but the " bird had flown.
The lady I
in whose room the thief was discovered had
a good view of him and describes him as a
low, squatty colored man, being barefooted,
jand saj-s she would be certain to know him
if she should see him sfgain.
There were evidences to show that. Ihe
Jwould-be thief had thoroughly overhauled
the premises, doubtless in search of money
or valuables, but we learn that nothing so
far has beeu missed.
Since writing the above we learn that the
mother of Mr. McDougald, aged between
60 and 70 years, was chloroformed by the
thief, from the effects of which, together
with the. shock and fright Incident to the
nrnnrrenM tshfi hpramp. rlplirinne sman nfiAr I

and at last accounts, late yesterday evening, I
was still in a very critical condition. The
