TOl tlS pIob WIN Va '~NS
neat swindling operation, or at least
the parties taken in regard 1t as such,
has been going on in Camden by a
couple of very pleasing address. Last
week an old lady residing On North
Third street, Camden, answered a
ring at the door bell, and at the front
door she met a rather pretty young
woman, of short build. This same
young woman, name unknown, imme-
diately upon setting eyes upon the per-
son before her, asked the question as
to whether there were any old chairs
that needed repairing in the house.
The mistress of the house who had
several of these articles in a dilapida-
ted condition answered yes, she think
ing it a good opportunity to have such
work done,- without the trouble that
there always is in sending such articles
away to be mended. Consequently she
invited the stranger in and produced
four chairs of miscellaneous description
II e young woman Immediately undid
"a undle which she carried and set to
work. The bundle contained a large
number of canes and the necessary
tools with which to do fine work. In
the course OF time this same lady fin
isIed the task which she undertook,
having recaned four chairs, making
them as good as new. After receiving
the money which she had fairly earned
she took a look around before taking
her departure. The work had been
done in the dining . of the house
and in this rooom there was a chair
which had a broken back. Spying this
char Mrs. So-and-So asked the lady OF
the house if she did not wish it mend
ed. The lady of the house inquired
the price of such mending ard it prov
ing satisfactory she told her to GO
ahead with her work. The stranger
female then stated that she could not
mend it there but tn It her husband
was outside and he would take it home
and mend it returning in two or three
days for his pay and with the chair,
This proposition seemed TO please the
mistress for she assented, and forthwith
the strange female went to the front
door aad in Il few nom nts returned
with a man whom she ltrUduced as
her husband. This man immediately
shouldered his burden and he and his
supposed wife departed. Since which
time neither they nor the chair have
been seen, and the old lady is NOW be-
moaning her ~foolishness, not because
of the chairs value in money, which
was about three dollars, but for its
family associations, and the fact that
she was encouraging swindling when
she supposed she was enabling an hon.
est person to earn an honest penny.
An investigation in the several neigh
borhoods showed that this same couple
had been working their little racket al
around with gratifying success, foi
two or three chairs a day of such value
would, in a little While prove very re-
muneratiye. And such persons, il
they had a chance, would not, in all
probability, stop at stealing chairs but
go further and lift everything conve.
nient. They would also have Il chance
to investigate the premises with a view
of returning at later time, not ii
