sWINDLES.

The city. town or village in the United
States Il vat has never, in the course of it
existence, been more or less afflicted will
patent right vendors, tightening rod ped
dlers, fiat le. >turess and snide shows, il
very rare. And while most towns ant
cities are entirely helpless, SO far q
edectually keeping these. devastating Vi ]
tors outside their ga, ,tes, it is strange thai
they are not ignored to 8 greater extent
than they are. The ou!y way one can
account fo. the partial sue, 'ess Of these
institutions is that they are. as rule, KEEP
up by tho poorer and more igno4 ant class
es. 1t is not infrsquent that we hear o.
some poor and unsophisticated fArmer
who has mortgaged his farm and thereby
brought hopeless poverty upon his faml
", just for the sake of being the possessor
of some kind of a machine which will
make him Independently rich in his
mind. Again; VIC notice that as general
thing it is the poor man that patroaizes
the peddler upon tho streets and gets in
exchange for his hard-earned money lot
of worthless plumber. Men of more OK
perience and better judgment would have
gone to one Of the village stores and got a
genuine article. There is another pit into
which the poor Of every village are almost
certain to fall, and one which every man
or woman who is not blessed with a great
amount of this worlds goods should try to
shun; that is, snide shows. These con-
Germs make great promises and advertise
to perform wonderful feats. The ignorant
man is the first to admire the gaudy rLpre-
sentatiOns ON the show bill and the first to
think of the joy it would afford his wife
and children to "sce the show" Ignorant
as he is of the fact that "all is not gold
that glitters." lie loves his family just the
same, and for his own benefit ~ we'll as
theirs, he scrapes up the needed cash aud
stakes in the show" Nine times out of
ten this very same man cannot pay his
grocery bill; he can't afford to properly
clothe his wife and children, and day at-
ter day and year after year they are COM
PEELED to lead life Of poverty and some-
times ono of wretcEedness. People
blame the press sometimes for denouncing
these institutions, but if they would stop
snd consider the real damage they do to
the poor and ignorant of their towns they
could scarcely do otherwise than join the
press in crusade against them. James,
town has just completed an engagement
with one of the snidest shows that trav-
els It sent US complimentary tickets
hoping to hush US up in our efforts to
warn our readers of its true character, and
it is needless to add that they were re-
turned as promptly as sent, accompanied
by our compliments. So long as the pub
fisher of this paper is able to shove Fa-
Der No. 2, it will ever he found denounc-
ing those things calculated to make our
poor poorer.

DROWNED IN THE CANAL.-Daniel Beach,
a helper at one OF the pudding furnaces at
the Tredegar Works, was drowned late
Yesterday afternoon in the canal in front OF
the Tredegar store. His body was re-
covered shortly afterwards and viewed by
the Coroner. From information derived
from persons who witnessed the affair, it is
hard to say whether the drowning was ac-
cideutal or not. The deceased was seen to
Dull off his shoes and wade into the water
until be bad gotten beyond his depth, when
it was observed that he was fast drowning.
A gentleman standing near procured a
plank and went to his relief, but the man
either refused or was too far gone to ac-
cept the prOtIered aid. The deceased re-
sided at No. 713 Church street, and leaves
wife but no children.
