A SCOUNDREL.
Some Moro OF Detective Nutter's
Work.
The Kind Of Q Dirty Dog He u.

Circumstances have brought into unen.
viahle local prominence about - con-
temptible q scoundrel - ever cursed .
decent community With his presence. We
refer to the "squint-eyed man." Nutter.
whose moral character 10 about - crooked
n his vision. The part he played in the
Morton business ID enough to damn him in
the opinion Of any respectable man. but be
has supplemented his 6rst brilliant stroke BY
ANOTHER DIRTY JOE,
the particulars of which, % BAzoo re-
porter gathered them yesterday, are -
follows.
Some time eince, . cigar maker named
Potter boarded at the German Honse, and
got in arrears. Wishing to GO TO Clinton,
and not having enough to liquidate his m
debtedness. he pledged to the proprietors
suit of clothes ~ security. until such time
~ he could obtain employment and earn
the money 10 redeem it. He went to Clin-
ton and returned short time since.
Nutter, who boarded At the German
House, became aware of the above facts,
and thought he saw an opportunity Of
MAKING An HONEST PENNY.
He went 70 Potter, and after getting his
confidence, told him that he Potter vas a
fool to redeem his clothing, because he
could easily slip up stairs and steal il, and
nobody would he the wiser for it. etc, etc.
What answer Potter made to Nutter's
proposition We are not informed, nor is it
necessary to the subject, but We presume
shat Potter was too sharp TO be caught in
the trap that Nutter had laid for his own
benefit.
After the above conversation, Judas like,
Nutter vent to one of the proprietor and
said:
"Look here, Louis, there's
A JOB GOING 10 BE Put UP
on you. have got possession OF all the par
ticulan, and will reveal the plot II ysu
will pay me for it,"
But Louis either mistrusted the man or
had studied him close enough to be satisfied
that he was . scoundrel, refused to have
anything to do with him, or pay him =
cent for his "valusble information"
Nutter being beat and out Of funds, he
probably, after . few days reflection,
thought it would be . good idea to
MAKE HIMSELF SOLID
with his boarding boss, and BY impartins
his valuable secret (?) he might obtain the
REQUISITE amount of subsistence that his
worthless CARCASS craved. So he told Louis
voluntarily the secret for which he had
previously demanded cash. But this did
not work, either. After changing his
boarding house, on Tuesday night Ode
tectiver, Nutter could not suppress his
admiration for his own peculiar detective"
qualities, and he told of the whole affair to
. fellow boarder, chuckling the while over
the extraordinary shrewdness Of his rAscally
scheme.
On Friday evening, it 10 said that Nut.
ter, (learning that 1t was contemplated BY
some to swear out warrant Tor his arrest
for some of his rascality, } fed the city. The
last aeen of
"rHE COCK EYED JUDAS"
as Col. Snoddy sptly terms him. he Was
making good time on the railroad track,
with his face pointed eastward.
Thus endeth the first chapter of Nutteri
ex."detective." May We never zee his like
again.

BROKEN FAITH.
BY ROSA PEARLE.

AZ the years bud, bloom and vither, one

10 onward and still onward, how many

10 anything or any body, and yet-lo oking
into eyes that soften and glow and smile

A Strange HallucinatiOn.

1t would be difficult to conceive life
of greater mental torture than that en-
dured by farmer in this county, whose
case was examined by the County Board
of Commissioners on Insanity yester-
day. The patients name is Max
Frahm; his home is near Donahue, in
Aliens Grove Township. When a boy
he delighted to hear stories of witch
craft, and his friends state he believed
in the existence of witches before there
was outward evidence of insanity on
the subject. Two years ago witches
commenced visiting him-bothering
him more and more; and for the last
four months he has been subjected to
all kinds of suffering by the imagined
beings, though sane on every other SUBJ
ject. His wife practices acts of witch
craft upon him; his neighbors bewitch
his pigs; everybody tries the black art
on him; the hired girl is the Princess of
witches, who hover over him in groups
at her command and pinch him, prick
him with pins, gibe him and call him
foul names. He never says yes or no,
because an answer of that kind sum-
mons the witches, who make him re-
tract. Witches ask everybody to kill
him, and when person approaches
him witches cry out to him that he
is doomed. Everybody seeks his life,
and he lives in constant terror. He
covers his head with blankets, and
the witches howl at him and pull the
covering; he hides, and the witches
find him and fOrca hin, IN fix, RI tho
nearest person for protection. His
family live in constant fear of him.
and their lives have become unendur
able with him. He can talk intelli-
gently enough on every topic, when the
witches are not near, and sometimes
they stay away for hours at time. 1t
is one of the most pitiable cases of men
tai agony brought to the notice of the
Commissioners in long time, and they
have decided to send him to the Mount
Pleasant Acknowledgment (Iowa)
Gazette.

our great cities, and go in and outof the
busy marts of trade. What shall we do
with our boys? We answer: Do not
not send them to the towns and cities
to encounter the uncertainties, and to
receive the certainties of the thousands
who have preceded them. Settle them
about you as best you can in honest
pursuit. where there is fresh air and
sunshine and health and moral purity.
To do this, as we before said, the occu-
patton must be made attractive. Do
not get SO engrossed in money-making
and saving as to deny yourself and
children the comforts and the luxuries
within reach; but make the old farm
house the brightest, happiest, cheeriest
place they viii ever find. From 9 cold,
cherries, slavish life the boys will seek
an escape and leave you alone when
the hair is silvered with age, and you
most need their protection and aid. No
parent makes a mistake who throws
sunshine into home life. 1t should be
study of every parent to make home
so abound with good cheer and happi-
ness that as the children grow up and
leave the paternal roof, whether near
BY or scattered abroad in the world,
they shall have hearts full of pleasant
memories echoing up from all the past.
1t will be to them strength and stay
in the hour of temptation, and OF more
real value in shaping their lives for
success and happiness than all the gold
you leave them Chicago Inter- ocean.
