A CONFIDENCE MAN CAUGHT IN THE
ACT-A Business Man" IN Pi.ison.-FOr
several weeks past the police have been
aware thai lively and thorough confidence
man has been working quite extensively In
business circles. Stories Of his operations
were told and repeated, but it seemed as if
the fellow could easily avoid all officers,
He was looked for in all directions dill
gently. HIS game was to play business
man" and planter, and he succeeded adm-
rably, to the financial sorrow of several
well known. The fellows style was to
obtain blank checks, fill them in for sums
from few dollars up to thousands, when
he would visit some commercial house, pur-
chase bill of goods, and hand in the check.
which was invariably several dollars more
than the amount of the bill He would
take the change, but seldom sent for his
good. B. H. Flaspolier, John Calder, A.
=. Griswold, j. A. O'Brien, M. L. Byrnes, E.
L. Zell, Stern Brothers, p. Hoelzel, A.
Rochereau g. Co., and other firms had deal
ings with the man, but all of them were not
victimized. IA the first named house, after
he had handed in a check to settle for his
bill, the balance was given to him in an
other check.
Soon after he left suspicion arose that the
transaction was not altogether square, 80
one of the clerks, Mr.. Weiss, visited the
bank directly, where he found his man,
waiting his turn in a crowd to have the
good check cashed. When the fellow saw
Mr. Weiss he tried to move off, but his pur-
suer was altogether too warm to be evaded.
The gentleman called an officer and had the
fellow arrested in double quick. On reach
ing the first precinct statiOnhOuse the man
was overhauled for plumber. In one shoe
was found the exact sum of money he had
obtained from one of his victims, and blank
checks were found in his pockets. He gave
his name as j. POns, and he is tolerably
well known here, but it was not suspected
that he could be guilty OF such immense
frauds as are now traced to him. He says
he was formerly on the police force under
Captain Schneider. His gains in these
transactions were sufficient to procure the
services of two or three able lawyers to de-
fend him. To-day POns will be looked at
10y Judge GernOn.

ing held last evening at the hall of Me-

BRIEF MENTIoN-Late Tuesday night an
ATTEMPT was made to burn frame cottage,
corner of Plum and Madison streets, Car
rollton, property of Mrs. Mary Dutch. The
fire was discovered before any great DAM
age had been done.
p. W. Goewey, controller OF streets IN the
third ward, caused the arrest OF several
nrominent merchants who failed to remove
distractions from the banquettes IN front OF
their stores They will have hearing be-
fore Judge Gernon.
A keen razor pushed its way into the neck
of Frank Hulka at the corner OF herlerec
and Rampant streets, Yesterday morning.
Coren Julian was arrested tor holding the
razor at the unfortunate moment.
A little bow named William Farris, about
fen wears old, while playing with powder
flask. at the corner of Pacific and mayer
streets. in Algiers, Tuesday, tried to see how
big a blaze it would make, and burned his
face and hands.
inc was caused by a kettle of tar boiling
over on the ship Maldala, head of Ferdl-
nand street. No damage.
Alexander Davis, lad, was last evening
accidentally shot by a boy whose name was
not ascertaiued. The two were playing at
the corner Of Spain and Solldelle streets.
THEY Took HIM In AND FIXED HIN
Early last evening one OF those happy look
inc and well dressed young men, whose
rancho is Cd st. Charles street, gathered
in a gentlemen from foreign parts. The
coupIes twins in one respect, retired to prl-
vate apartments, somewhere on the afore-
said thoroughfare, where a quiet game OF
acme kind was played. The foreign gen.
tleman did not prove as good a player as
the domestic party, for foreign wealth was
ateadily steered into the home pocket.
reenbacks gave out, when gold watch
and chain we're spouted, quickly followed
nv a diamond pin. This accomplished. he
OF foreign parts began to "squeai' Justify
Indnad he clicked" with pertlnacity
which induced and persuaded the winner

was no arrest.

IN Town AoArN.-Capt. Ralf Bledsoe was in town
again on Sunday last and left for home Monday
morning The Captain gives a glowing account OF
the coming fruit crop in Boise Valley. He says the
fruits were injured more by the late cold weather
than by the frosts which preceded 1.-THE cold being
so severe to dreat deal Of the young fruit
to turn yellow and fall off, But there will still be. he
thinks, extra good crops OF raspberes
plums. grapes. peaches apples. aud whatever varie
ties grown in Boise Valley. which include IN
kinds produced in the temperate zone in America.
The apple and peach trees full of fruit that
they viii have to be propped mp. aud probably some
OF the fruit picked or to the trees from 4, s.ruc
ton. Captain Betisos mentionedt two fruit growers
In the vicinity of Boise City whose crops he estiates
at from fifteen to twenty thousand dollars. and be-
iieves they likely 10 exceed the latter figure
than to fall below the former So much for Idaho
Territory fruit growing country; and this lis only
the beginning. The greater knowledge Of the bust
ness gained by the experience OF each succeeding
year will place Idaho orchards III the front rank
for productiveness aud their fruits not exceled
in delicacy OF flavor by any.
