pitable home, and had many servants;
hut Ivy over kindness to an i'll wife, my
friendship to poor relations, and
being bound to ungrateful friends,
have u~uhappily brought me to want
and misery in the winter of my age
Next to this lying hypocrite up started
a ragged old fellow, whose board was
like an old stable broom, and rolling
about his eyes without saying a word,
dropped down at the end of the table
clenched his hands fast, foamed at the
mouth like a Siberian prophet in fit of
ocstacy, and beating his head against the
floor most skillfully assumed q tit Of ep.
ilepsy. At length recovering he got up
set his back against the wall and thon
took his seat again Mt the table among
the other members of the society.
"Such, very much condensed, Is the
account by the eye witness of the Beg.
CARS Club in 1890, anG it certainly gives
a curious peep of the elaborate tricks
which were played on the public on the
public when there were no charity or.
ganization societies to keep impostors in
check. The beggars lived, no doubt, a
iovial merry life, caring little for the
morrow. But beggars and crime are
very nearly allied. and the probability
is that some of these clever beggars car
ried their tricks too far, and ended their
days at Tyburn.

THE LATEST SWINDLE.
How a Compile of ShGrpers and a Boy
Managed to Gather the Chink.

Detroit Free Press.
''If these new-fashioned detectives,
who are afraid to stir out alone and al
ways go in pairs, like mules, were to de-
vote as much time and ability to detect
ing crime IS they do to hiding it from the
knowledge of reporters and the public,
they'd come much nearer earning their
salaries than they do now" remarked ex-
detective Somerville with considerable
asperity.
"Why this murmur, William"
"If the people don't pay policemen to
protect them from crime and criminals,
then / don't know what they do pay
them for"
"You seem to be telling this story
backwards, William. Suppose, instead
of going at il crab.fashion, you com
mence at the beginning 30 that ! can
catch on. What have the detectives
been hiding nowl'
"As neat a swindlipg game as have
heard of in a long time. Two men and a
boy have been playing in here for about
a month. But they're not here now
They left here the other day just ahead
of the police"
What was their pet racket
Something new, j reckon. They
stand around the big%-stores to see who
traded there. Pretty soon some big lady
would drive up in her carriage, and out
would rush a clerk bareheaded to see
what she wanted; perhaps the proprietor
himself. That would give it away that
she was a biz and desirable customer,
When she drove away the boy
followed her carriage until he learned
Omaha daily bee., 1884-08-23

where she lived, her name and all about
her. The next morning the boy would
60 to the proprietor of the store and
hand him a note purportiug to be written
by the lady, stating that her husband
was out of the city, and she was in urg.
ent need of 500, SO or 500. Would
Mr.-be so kind as to loan it to her for
a few days until her huoband returned
And tho merchant couldn't get the safe
door open quick enough. In all hour or
two they would rope in every man with
whom the lady traded. The neNt day
they would follow some othor lady
around shopping, and then racket those
whom she patronized. l know one man
who didn't happen to have the money in
the store, and he actually went out and
borrowed 500 for the boy. Now, the
detective department has known all
about this for a long time, and could
have broken up in FIVE minutes by simply
warning the public, but not a reporter
has heard of 1t yet, and these sharpers
have been raktng in hundreds of dollars
a day. Go into any of these big dry
goods stores or groceries, and, if they
tell the truth, they'll tell you that they
we're caught for a hundred or two
"Well, l should think that the de.
t~ectives could have spotted that boy
without much trouble.
''Of course. Regular picnic Job, A
man with the brains of a guinea-pig
ought to have worked up that Job in
about a day, easy, but he! he! he! hop
and William laughed sarcastically, the
two smart Ellicks who were detailed for
the work made a regular chump mess of
it. If had a 2-year-old boy who could
not do better than they did I'd bury him
face downwards.' and William laughed
sardonically.
"Theso fellows got onto tho boys all
right, and when he went into a store and
struck the proprietor for a hundred they
rushed in and collared him and took
him off down to headquarters. If they
had let the boy get the money they
wouldn't have had to follow him more
than a block or two before the two men
would have Joined him, and they could
have c%ollared the whole gang, but the
moment that the men saw that the boy
was nabbed they lit out. When these
fly detectives got the boy to the lookup
and questioned him, and he told them
that the two men were from Chicago, and
and were boarding up on West Eliza.
beth street, and away they went up there
to get 'em.
1.-THE lady of the house said she
guessed they were in their room, for
they came in a short time previously and
she hadn't heard them go out. The
door of the room was locked, and no one
opened it when the detectives raped, so
they burst it open, and found two canes
standing in the corner. The birds had
skipped, and after keeping the boy a day
or two, they let him so, too.
Ra"Since then those detectives have
been shaking in their boots lest some re-
porter should find it out and write EN-
up. If you put that in the Free Press
thereu be many a ~store-keeper who,
when he reads his paper, will whistle
very low, cuss a little to himself, and
tell his book-keaper to mark the item of
500 against Mrs. So-and-so off his
books and charge it to profit and loss"
