Trade And Grows Rich But Is
 Caught At Last.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-The general land office is informed of the trial and convic tion of R. c. Bloomfield in Denver on Sep tember 21 for conspiring to defraud the United States in procuring fraudulent pre- emption entries under fictitious names Mr. Bloomfield is an Englishman, very wealthy and was manager of the Arkansas Land and Cattle company composed almost entirely of Englishmen. This company it is represent ed own over three hundred thousand acres of land, controlling the water of vast areas of country through illegal means. The conviction of Bloomfield is regarded at the Interior department as highly impor- tant in that it will be likely at deter others from continuing in the same illegal business. When the jury returned it's verdict Bloom field tainted in court. H. K. Pinckney, who was indicted with Bloomfield escaped before his trial came off. He is represented as having furnished the men to personate actual settlers. He employed cowboys until the supply was exhausted, when he put up paper men. Pinckney was clerk in the local land office and was of great assistance in successfully executing the fraudulent en- tries.

CANCER OF THE TONGUE.

Case Resembling That of Gen. Grant. Some ten years ago I had scrofulous sore on my right hand which gave me great trouble, and under the old time treatment healed up, but it had only been driven into the system by the use of pot ash and mercury and in March, 1882 it broke out in my throat and concentrated in what some of the doctors called cancer, eating through my cheek, destroying the palate and under lip entirely and half my tongue, eating out to the top of my left cheek bone and up to the left eye could not eat tongue was so far gone that could not talk. Such was my wretched helpless condition the nrst of last October (18S4), when my friends commenced giving Swift's Specific. In less than month the eating places stopped and healing commenced, and the fearful aperture in ny cheek has been closed and firmly knitted together. A process of new under lip is progressing finely. and the tongue winch was almost destroyed is being recovered and 1t seems that nature is supply ing new tongue. l can talk so that my friends can readily understand me- and can also eat solid food again. If any doubt these facts, would refer them to Hon. John H. Traylor, State Senator of this district and to Dr. T. s. Bradheld of LaGrange. Ga

Society ut Richmond ut the beginning Of
This Century.
II would be worth while. had we the
space. 10 present here a characteristic
sketch Of Richmond society at the be-
ginning Of this century. The cravat
was the important part Of a gentleman's
toilet A Richmond exquisite of the
first decade Of this century vested him
self like a silk-worm in the ample folds
Of his cravat His valet held one end
and he the other Of the long thin
texture. the former walked round his
master till both ends met. when they
were tied in large bow. II the gentle
man did not enjoy the luxury Of valet.
one end Of the cravat was tied TO the
bed-post. and he walked toward the
latter. turning all the while. and wrap
ping his neck in his cravat till he was
wound up like an Egyptian mummy.
The stiff collar Of the dress-coat stood
as high rs the ears. and was kept back
several inches from the head TO enable
the wearer 10 turn To the right or the
left. ,Buckskin brccches and top-boots
completed the gcntleman's apparel. the
perfection Of both depending on the
tightness Of the fit A quarter Of
century earlier--that Is. about the time
of the American Revolution Richmond
was smaller town than either Norfolk
or Fredericksburg. Its safe and cen
trail position caused IL 10 be selected as
the capital Of the State. but In the year
1775 il was q cluster Of villages rather
than town.
The gentleman OF Richmond Mt that
time wore an old-fashioned dress
breeches. stockings, large roomy coats,
cooked hats. and knee buckles. They
figured in magnificent waist-coais
covered with flowers In gold threads,
and reaching 70 their knees. hig hcelcd
shoes. queues tied with gay ribbons.
and snowy storm Of powder on the
hair.
The favorite amusement Of the most
stylish Richmond ladies at that time
was game Of cards called loo. The
ladies met at each others houses. and
after discussing dish Of tea and an
other Of gossip, the card-table was
brought out Gentlemen were admit
ted TO this entertaining circle, and he
who played the most careless and
dashing game was the most welcome.
provided he was not too successful in
his winnings. The stakes were small,
but bv forfeits, etc, the money in the
pool would sometimes accumulate until
II amounted to $50. $75, and 500.
Then the game became intensely inter-
esting. The practice Of gaming be-
came nj last a social evil; domestic
duties Were neglected. mothers forgot
their children. wives rifIed the pOckct-
books OF their husbands; gentlemen
gamblcd away their gold vest buttons,
and ladies their earrings and bracelets.
carried away by the mad spirit Of loo.
The burning ofthe Richmond Theatre
on the 26th Of December. 1911, By
which scventy-two valuable lives were
lost changed the light tone Of society
to one Of q graver and more serious
character.-E. 4. Didier. IN HcrDcr's

We are charmed with our hotel. II
stands high up, and we breakfast with
eyes turned to the view we have come
to see. We are waited upon by girls
in the picturesque dress of their canton
black skirts with pipings of scarlet
velvet bodices trimmed with silver Or
naments, and chains and white lace,
and long, white sleeves, and chemi-
good-tempered girls, and quiet,
rs all the Swiss are. Opposite to me
at table d'hotc sits an English lord (p),
with his lady on one side and friend
on the other. He grumbles all the
time and at grumbles be-
cause there is thick soup, and when
they bring him thin grumbies at that.
A luckless footstool happens TO be I'M
der the table; up he gets and prepares
to shy it at the length of the room;
fortunately a waiter catches it en- route.
We all admire flower-garden in the
middle of the dining-room. Grumbler
says it is nuisance and harbors in
sects, and the servants can not clean
the room properly. The rest of us
think the place scrupulously clean, and
that it would be difficult to find any
dusty holes and corners. However, he
is very polite and kind to his wife, and
takes his friends hearty laughs and
jokes at his grumbling in very good
part.
There is another extraordinary Eng
lishman here. / saw some Germans
looking at him with the same sort of
wonder and curiosity with which we
looked at Swiss costume new to us.
He wore white linen hat, black vel
vet coat, scarlet tie, light gray trous-
ers, pale yellow waistcoat, and cricket
shoes Of tan-colored leather, and white
linen. / am confident some foreigners
not conversant with the varieties of
English dress thought him one of the
manifold attractions of the Schweizer-
hof. He was handsome, broad-shoul-
dered man, and very popular with many
of the guests of the hotel. All sorts
of people come to the Schweizerhof.
One morning about seventy boys, rang
ing from IA to Is years of age came
and took luncheon, and sang some
charming part songs, but with less
feeling than the Germans usually sing.
A dozen young military officers came
one evening, and they went home sing
ing their songs early next morning,
which some people did not like. AS
rule, the Swiss are obliging and very
quiet. You never hear peals of laugh
ter here as you do in France and Ger
many.-COr. Richmond Dispatch.
