wrNsLow. THE FoRGER.
@rowing Wealthy and Powerful in a
South American City.


A writer in the SUNDAY CaDffal gives
some interesting information about Wins
low, the escaped Boston forger, whose
notoriety IS world wide, and who is now
nYlng IN Buenos Ayres under the name of
w. ID. Lowe. WinslOw was dropned ont
OF the navy in 1869. having served as n
chaplain from 1864. His newspaper and
other enterprises in Boston, which were
cut short by the discovery of his forgeries.
occupied hlm three or four years, and his
present career dates from about the wear
1910 er 1876. Since his arrival in BuenOs
Ayres fortune seems TO have smiled upOn
his every endeavor. and although his for
mer record is well known, he is treated
as reputable person and is regarded as
one of the most successful men of the
place.
Almost Immediately on his arrival in
BuenOs Ayres WinslOw succeeded in bor-
rowing money sufficient to establish his
newspaper, the Daily Herald, and the en-
terprise has been a success from the start.
and is now published in French and Span
ish as well as in English. Winslow's re-
l!glous homiiies in the Sunday edition of
the Herald are said to be as good reading
as the latitude of BuenOs Ayres affords.
he has become the owner of a handsome
block Of buildings, drives the best pair of
horses IN BuenOs Ayres, which, by the
way, is city of half million people.
and lives in handsome house on the out
skirts. He has telephone from his bus-
ness office to his residence. and does most
OF his editing at home in his elegant
library.
Soon after his arrival in Buenos Avres
Winslow succeeded in marrying a Young
woman and went to England on his we'd
ding trip, but remained there but a short
Tme TIM Tor fear OF an application from the
United states for his eXtradtiOn. Since
ne mas been in BuenOs Ayres he has been
to Europe twice on important missions
for the government. He has the entree at
the Presidents house, where he even
takes precedence of the Presidents minis
terlal advisers, who are obliged to
wait until his business is done
before they go in TO do theirs. 1t
is believed that he is so pow
erful that he would have no difficulty in
breaking down any person who should
undertake to expose or oppose him, and
no one cares to do it. He is a member of
the principal club of the place, and is per-
sOnally intimate with the American Min
lister.
Winslow has experienced only one re-
buft since his arrival in Buenos Avres.
which was his expulsion from church
on account of the disc osure of his base
treatment to his first wife, whom he aban-
doned TO penury in Massachusetts. 1t is
SAID that he has not manifested anv dispo-
sltlon to pay off the amounts realized out
OF his forgeries in Boston. His credit in
BuenOs Ayres is said to be exceedingly
good, and prominent merchants are al
ways ready to lend him all the money that
he wants

THE sO-CALLED KUKLUx.

Cincinnati Special, 9Oth lth.
Half dozen muscular fellows in chains
were waiting to-day at the Grand Central
Passenger Station for the train for the
North. They had been convicted of ku-
kluX outrages in Georgia, and were bound
for the Auburn n. Y. } Penitentiary. The
principal one of the group, j. NJ. Var

had any objections to talking to a news

may understand the case. You see the
bill against us said 'ku-kluXin.' but il
was nothing of the kind. One night my
brother and some neighbOrs' bows were
out on the road going home with the girls.
They met q young mulattO named Cad
Bush. who brushed against the girl. Neil
was with them, and Neil asked what he
did that for. The niger got sassy, said
he was a taxpayer, worked on the roads.
and had right to walk on 'em. The bows
went that night with their hickOries and
dressed him up right smart-nO light
dressin'. but one he would remember-and
all on account of the girl, and not on ac
count of politics, as they tried to make
out.
''After that an old Niger, relative of
Bush, said he war going to kill me on
sight, and the night of July "a we started
out to hunt him, and went first to the
cabin OF man named Cook, whar we
knew he hung out most of the time. We
knocked on the door, and Cook says.
who's tharY 4 told him we had nothin'
against him, but we just wanted to see if
so and so war in thar, and he said, No.
We said, ''That's all right, but just open
the door and let us see." He wouldn't do
it, so we opened up for him and gave him
nine licks. Then we went over to Barry
Sanders0n's, who refused to open the
door. We pried off the fastenin's and
Barry rushed out with an axe. Wedidn'L
know it was him, and one of our boys
shot at him several times, and finally hit
him, and that's what they call kukIuxin',
and that's all we're here fOr.v
"What would you have done if you had
found your man?''
''Well, L reckon we'd a thrashed him
good. We wouldn't a killed him. We
never kill anybody. but we do lick niger
once in a while unless they walk the
line pretty straight. l don't think PIl
lick another one if ever get out. It's ex-
pensive. See what I've got for it nOw.''
