TRICK UPON JEWELERS..

One of the shre dest and boldest
tricks ever played on a jf weller was
done by woman of nerve 10 Gin
cinnati not long ago. One csy a
middle aged woman, of fine personal
appearance, we'll dressed, and of
most attractive manners, called at a
private lunatic asylum and asked to
see the superintendent. That Off
cial met her in the parlor.
81 wish to make arrangements tor
the confinement of patient here"
she said. "Wbat are your terms
and the conditions on which you re-
ce We your inmates 7"
"Our terms are SIS per week,
and you must have the certificate of
two physicians"
"Very WELL" said the lady; 81
will pay you for two weeks in adj
vance. The patent is my son, who
is insane on the subject of diamonds.
He has a mania for selling my jew
elry. l have not yet gotten the GER
tifcate of the physician, but can
easily do so. will bring my son
here in the afternoon, and if you
will keep him an heur | will bring
the physicians with the authority"
Then the lady entered her carr
rage and drove to a jewolry store -
There she selected $4,000 worth of
ieweIry, which she said she Intended
for the trousseau of her daughter,
about to be married She gave the
name of a wealthy family recently
arrived in Cincinnati, and said to
the proprietor, "if you will let one
of your clerks step into the carriage
with me, | will go to my husbands
store and give him the money for
the goods"
The proprietor consented and the
clerk, with the goods in box, en-
tered the carriage with the lady, who
said she wished to stop on the way
and show her purchases to friend.
They drove to the asylum and were
shown to the parlor. The superin-
tendent entered, and the lady said
quite calmly to the clerk Just
open the box and show the things to
this gentleman"
The clerk unsuspectingly com
piled. CareIessly drawing near, the
lody suddenly seizei the box, and
was walking out of the room with it
when the astoni, he'd clerk cried:
Hold on, madam, must not let
those goods go out Of my sight until
/ get the money"
The lady did not deign to notice
the clerk, but, turning to the super
intendent of the asylum said:
"This is the young man | spoke
to you about. He is getting a little
violent. You had better secure him"
1t was 10 vain that the clerk pro-
tested that a robbery was being CON
mitted. The superintendent was in
exorsble. He called his assistants
and secured the clerk, while the lady
walked to her carriage with the $40,
900 worth of jewelry. N. !. Sun.

A COLORADO BONANZA.

DENVER, Nov. 2.-Considerable
excitement has been created in min
iog circles here by the publication of
the results obtained from working
the recently discovered gold bearing
lode in The Summit distric: in this
State. Mining experts and CAPT
talists interested in the find" claim
that it will prove the largest and most
valuable gold mine in the United
States. 1t is claimed that the results
of the actual working for one month,
with fifteen stamp mill, is 500, 900,
and that the tsilings are worth $3.50
per ton. The assays, it is said, run
as high as $4,000 per ton.

EXAMINE OFTEN.

Some years ago, when an enor~
nous defalcation took place in Lon
don on the part of the treasurer Of
a public company, it came to light
that he had for years avoided taking
holiday of more than day or two,
the object evidently being that no
thorough examination Of bis accounts
should be made. Thenceforward
that company, and many other com
panies, insisted on all their subordi-
mates taking holidays, and their
books are then thoroughly overhaul
ed by competent accountants. The
case alluded to, and also that OF a
man who for years carried on gigan-
tic frauds on the Crystal Palace Com
pany, had the salutary effect Of
causing firms to rigidly investigate
the accounts of their cashiers, etc,
irrespective of long service and cor,
dial relations

A Boston Con mission has been

able method adopted by the Massa>

"The Ninth Massachusetts Regiment

pie to comment upon and condemn
their action. We have nOthilg to

This course would have been pur-

erable excuse that they had been
publicly assaulted in Richmond be

have now been overwhelmed by

CRIME.

A carnival of crime seems TO be
sweeping over the country. Seldom
have We read of as many murders,
thefts, robberies, rapes, burglaries,
and every known species Of crime
humanity in it's wickedness is cspa>
bic of performing. 1t is coDfinod to
no town, city or State, but seems to
be universal north, south, east aud
west. Why this is so in the re
markably progressive civilizipg in>
huences Of our age, is the puzzliug
question. The law is not lax in the
punishment of crime, the newspapers
denounce it, and the preachers pro-
claim against it yet among all ranks
and classes, high and low, startling
crimes daily blacken the pages Of
our public prints, We surely are
on evil times. The stern mandates
of the law will have to be issued
with greater TIN eatenings, and the
swiftness Of punishment will have tc
be more surely visited, with a view
to deter and abate, while the vigi-
lance of officers will have to be re
doubled. The protection of person
and property is the object of the
Law, and this must be done at all
hazards,

and the door being securely locked
its disappearance seemed mysterious
He finally concluded that ipgress
was effected through the cotton box
to bis press. which was arranged
just under the condenser. With this
view, he set the follow block on trig-
gers and went his way. While he
and family were at supper. he heard
the distressed cries OF man in The
direction of the gin house. Repair
ing to the scene of the uproar, he
found bis cotton thief securely fas,
tened in the box, the follow block
on top of him, and he begging for
help. He was promptly bagged, and
now awaits Judge Erwin's tender
mercies. The thief is white man
who formerly stood we'll in the CON :
munity."
