of our ministers and church people, and by
this means he is enabled to place himielf be-
fore congregations and lecture Sunday
Schools. The unsuspecting parent who is
visiting the school and the youthful MEM
bers of the different classes rarely ever sus-
pect that the smooth tOngiled man who adj
dresses them is simply taking the initiatory
steps toward swindling the people out OF
money through false pretenses. But such is
often the case.
There is at least one of these individuals
operating in this city now, and from the
length of his visit, it is natural to suppose
that he is at least making expenses-his
chief aim. Only few days ago he received
complimentary notices from nearly every
daily paper in the city. He has carried out
the full programme of the professional. with
one exception, and that is he has stayed too
long to keep up his reputation. Like water
| frauds will find their level, and those who
| have been SO unfortunate as to form the ac-
quaintance of. the man referred to, and
! have observed the class of people with whom
he associates, have come to the conclusion
that an enterprise having him as Its repre-.
sentative cannot be worthy of financial aid
from the people. 1t is fully time that the
people know some things about a man, be
fore admitting him into the family circles
or unintentionally assisting in his swindlins
scheme by giving him the privilege to lect
ure church congregations and Sunday schools
Be on the lookout for these frauds, and know
something about a stranger before you give
him your confidence and your money.

INCoRRiGIBLE.

Joseph Paulucie, the young man of Ken
ton, O., who was arrested for forgery on
Tuesday, was taken before the Mayoron yes
terday. Tie charge against him was that Of
drawing a check upon his father, who bears
the same name as that of his son, and is
President of the Kenton co. First National
Bank, for SIS. and obtaining the money
thereon at the Occidental saloon Two OF
the young mans friends appeared tor him
and stated that the above transaction had
been settled, and asked thst he be released
in order to join the Regular
Army, which he desired to do. The Mayor
consented to the arrangement, as it was also
the desire of the boys parents He at once
enlisted. Although somewhat large and
marked by dissipation, Paulucie is but nine
teen years old. He became maynard and
left home some months ago, since which
time he has lived by drawing checks upon
his father and failing to pay any board. His
father, it is said, hOn0red checks to the
amount of $500 or 500, and finally became
tired of il. Several days ago Captain Nlchol.
son. of the Police Force, observing Paulucie's
actions and the character of his associates
here, gave him some good advice which was
unheeded, and his mother, who came day
or two afterward, also failed to influence
him to better ways. Before returning home
she told the officers the only thing to be
done was to arrest him. His mind appeared
bent on a career of crookedness and dissipa-
ton. His friends hope that five years OF
soldier life will develop him into a better

Do Not Trespass.

Don't occupy the attention of your friend,
or acquaintance, or indeed anybody else,
longer than is absolutely necessary. When
you exceed the measure of necessity you
commit q trespass on mis- time which you have
no right to perpetrate. Whether you meet
him IN the street. or call on him at his store,
his stall, ms Office, his workshop, or what
ever may be the title of his place of bust
ness, you have no right TO presume that he
has time to spare because You happen to
have supersbundance of it, or that he is
not pressed By the demands of business, be-
cause you have nothing to do. 1t is moral
lmprobability, which some are in the habit Of
indulging in, that of trespassing unnecessa
rily upon the time of their friends and &C
qusintances, thus forcing them either to neg
lect their business, or incur the imputstiOr
Of breech of politsness. Do not then pu
your friends into such disagreeable posi-
ton. If you meet him on the street, and h
give sign of haste, don't stop him unless Il
do SO be indispensable, nor delay him longe
than is absolutely necessary; and il you hsv'
to call upon him at his office, store or shop
transact your business with him as soon q
possible, and then be of.

Frauds.

What is said of the poor, that we always
have them with us, may also be said of the
numerous fraud family: There are colored
as we'll as white frauds, and our own cloor
and asso citation has afforded better oppor-
tunity to become more familiar with the
transactions of the former than with the lat
ter. Therefore We shall speak of the colored
frauds who infest this city. They come here,
bringing with them the recommendations of
unknown parties. They exhibit these testi-
monials of good character as vouchers for
the worthiness of some charitable enterprise
for which they pretend to be raising money,
to our prominent citizens, but no body ever
takes the time or goes to the expense of writ
ing letters to enquire into his standing in So
ciety at the place where he claims as his
home, or to ascertain whether the enterprise
he pretends to be collecting money to assist, is
worthy of the financial assistance of our
citizens. By some means the professional
fraud succeeds in getting complimentary
notices from the press, but ofcourse it cannot
be charged that he pays for these notices, for
he never pays for any thing. The profess
sional fraud does not stop there, he always
makes it bis business to gain the good will

Mr.. Charles Pierson last Monday, was very

which they partook of it. The Doctor was

four years of age, could easily pass for forty
