The article presents a case of a woman whose purse was snatched when she was leaving Saint Malachi's Church. It just happened that a cop was in the crowd descending the steps after mass. The culprit was arrested on the spot; the woman's pocket-book was returned before anyone could find out whether it contained more than carfare, and finally he was hustled to the West Forty-seventh Street Station. Furthermore, some other cases along with the change of names of the respective companies are also included.
