A COglSiON CHEAT.
"A Change Racket Man Con-
vciteA.

Yesterday a stranger in the city
who gave his name as John Doe
was convicted of being common
cheat. George Bryson, the com.
planning witness, testified that or
the day before he came into his
saloon, and ordering a glass of wine
laid down a half dollar. He was
given a two-bit piece and a dime in
change, and taking the money in
his hand started toward the door.
A moment later he wheeled round
and said:
Do you give nickels for quar-
ters here, at the same time show
ing a fve-cent nickel and a dime in
his hand.
The witness took the nickel and
gave him a quarter for it, but after
the man went out he began to sus-
pect a trick, and hunting up officer
Stern put him on the track of the
man. Stern followed him to Harry
Somer's saloon, and was just in
time to find Somer. ferking over
quarter in exchange for a nickel.
Stern arrested him.
In court the defendant admitted
that he played the trick in several
places and said that as it was
played on him by bar-keeper in
the city, he determined to get even.
He always had a nickel in his
hand when he took change, and
