LARRIKIN BURGLARS.
From facts that have come to the knowledge of the detective authorities, there is every reason to believe that a number of the younger members of the criminal class in Melbourne have recently organised themselves into a compact band and commenced a career of systematic robbery. Within a few days a large number of burglaries have been committed, and they all bear evidence of having been committed by the same persons, and as similar tokens of inexperience are to be found in each instance, the supposition is that they are without the assistance of an experienced criminal.
Tommy came home from school, and banded to his father the teacher's report on his progress during the month. •• This is very unsatisfactory, Tom ; you've a very small number of good marks. I'm not all pleased with it." " I told the teacher you wonldn't be, but he wouldn't alter it." Partridges are plucky birds.— They always die game.
