Bogus Heraldry.

A careful investigation shows
that the American College of
Heraldry in University place, New
York. which is using the names of
many prominent citizens as regents
and life members, is a protentious
sham. Albert Welles, who seems
20 be not only the president but
all the rest Of the faculty also, has
succeeded by ingenious devices in
getting $50 each from these re-
gents and life members, who have
no duties and no privileges of any
value. Inquiries have been made
among leading citizens whose
names Mr.. Welles is using, and it
is found that they have either not
authorized him to do anything of
the kind, or have not investigated
the matter and know scarcely
anything about the se-called col
lege. The Tribune, referring TO
the matter says:
We venture TO say that there
never was a College of Heraldry,
or any other college so peculiarly
constituted as the institution de-
scribed in our local columns, and
known as the American College of
Heraidry. Dotheboys Hall had
a larger faculty, and the Shep
herds Fold furnished more for the
money. Mr.. Albert Welles, the
so-called president of this mythical
institution, plainly founded it for
his own benefit, and not with a
view TO the resuscitation of the
ancestors Of his fellow members,
or for the good of anybody's pos
terity but his own. His plan is in
two parts: First, to charge $5C
for the privilege of life-member.
ship in an association which j:
simply Mr.. Welles under corpo'
ratio name; second, to get large
number of iife-members. His sue.
cess has been admirable. Mayor
This has been induced to join by
the statement that Governor Tha'
was yearning to have him 10 so
and Governor That was assured
that MayOr This was a pillar and ;
light and a strong tower in tn,
institution. Many men of promi
nence, who are accustomed Il
. being elected to membership to a
least one association on an average
every month, accepted their elec
tions and parted with their money
without looking twice into the
matter. The methods of baggin,
life members were various anC
amusing"

Advices from Melbourne fully
confirm the report that the much
dreaded phylloxers has made its
appearance in the vineyards OF
Australia. \ select committee of
the Victorian assembly recently
paid a visit to the vineyards which
are planted on the Barrabool hills,

of the vineyards was unmistakably
smitten with the disease, the in

Custer chronicle. [volume] (Custer City, Black Hills, D.T. [S.D.]) 1880-1890, 1881-07-30

There are some men in this world
who, having no ability to make their
own lives Il success, devote their time
trying to prevent others from doing so.
Some n belonging to this dog in
manger" class, on hearing that parties
were here to buy the Lost Bonanza
mine, owned by LaBarre and Flick.
straightway informed the purchasing
parties that DR.. Flick could be bought
for a considerable less sum than he had
asked. Just who the man is we do not
know, and when We make his acpuaint-
ance we hope he will be wearing a suit
OF tar and feathers. This class Of people
are n of the drawbacks a mining
community generally has to contend
with, but there is a way TO make the
climate disagreeable for them and it is
to be hoped that this county will become
a triGe warm for their continued exist
ance.
Custer chronicle. [volume] (Custer City, Black Hills, D.T. [S.D.]) 1880-1890, 1881-07-30

From some statements Of Mr., Grifing,
Of Chicago, who is now here, We are
confident that an opportunity will be
given to those owning mica locations TO
realize something from their property,
50 that that they will be enabled to
prosecute the work of development and
keep a little ready cash on hand.
He states that it is his intention to
purchase mica here for which he will
give a price according to the quality and
pay cash for it, so that a mar who is
opening his mine can bring in his pro
duct, get it cut on some of the machines
here and get his money for it as readily
as he can now get cash for gold dust
The benefit that this will be to the coun-
ty, as we'll as to the mines, is incalcul-
able as it will encourage development.
We know a large number of locations
hut nearly all are unopened, their value
is not proven, and no money il put into
circulation by them, but should this
gentleman or his company establish q
depot as they propose, then will be en-
ployment given to many men Of just the
kind that a mining population wants,
that is q chance to make good wages
with the possibility of striking a big
thing. The actual value Of our mica
mines will be demonstrated and the
prevailing cause Of a total lack Of cash
will be removed. There is nothing
which has been proposed here during
the last year that to us presents 80
favorable a look as this, and that il may
prove a fact We earnestly wish. At the
present time there are at least a dozen
mines opened enough to begin to take
out mica. Some Of them show a Gne
quality which will compare avorably
with the far famed but greatly overated
product Of North Carolina, and when
once our mica is fairly introduced it's
own merits will do the rest We shall
have no lack Of demand. There is no
question but that we can produce larger
sizes Of firm even texture and Of O
beautiful color. What more can be re-
quired it is hard to see. Yet like every
other new thing it takes time to create
a demand. The proposed depot for
purchasing will be the best advertising
medium for our mica that can be i'm
agined, and if Mr.. Grifing concludes to
put his intention into execution we hail
him as a public benefactor.
