newspaper. He denounced the new en-
terprise as a scheme for swindling adj
vertisers. Medina promptly had re-
course to a Mexican court, and forced his
a~ssailant to sign a retraction. Mr.. Cutting
Immediately crossed the Rio Grande, and
published in an American newspaper known
as The Ell Paso Herald a card reiterating his
assertion that Medina was a swindler. On
Nj. Cuttings return to Mexican soil he was
arrested a second time on Mexican soil and
kept in Jail q month, when he was offered by
the supreme court of Chihuahua his freedom
upon bail. This he is reported to have re-
fused, on the ground that he had appealed to
the United States government for redress,
which seems to be slow about coming, and in
the meantime the whole border becomes in
famed. 1t is safe to say that this affair
will be automatically healed between the
governments, but that the hostility which it
has engendered will cool without some blood
spilling is not SO certain.

ties began to pile up SO that there waa
danger of his being imprisoned, he turned
his face eastward, leaving a trail of swindles
across the continent and along the Atlantic
seaboard and in Europe. His exploits will be
recalled in Virginia City and on The Denver
Tribune, in Ogden, Omaha, Chicago and on
The Times and Enquirer, of Cincinnati. Here
he got into an alteration with the circus
owner Robinson's son., and a scar which he
received then has done him good service in
his stories of his alleged war experiences.
In 1877 be was on The Baltimore American
and later in Philadelphia, and finally IN The
New York Herald, where he wrote the de-
tails of President Garfield's sickness and
death. He was doing first class work, max
ing S125 a week and %swindling right and left.
! About this time he learned that a Miss Lizzie
Linderman, whom he had known in Cali
fornia had fallen heir to 100000. He made
violent love to her on paper, induced her to
come east, married her and squandered her for
..::c q q the. tho paid attention TO a doctors
wife. The doctor, getting one of Raymond's
pictures from her room, used it for pistol
practice for several weeks SO as to familiarize
himself with Raymond's features. After
ward he is said to lave used the pistol on
himself.
His career from this time on could scarcely
be credited. He made a tour of the southern
states marked by a constant succession Of
swindles and escapes. After touching at Bos-
ton he started a news bureau in London. He
was next war correspondent in Egypt. Then
he turned up in Australia and escaped trou-
BILE there by fleeing to the Sandwich Islands.
He was next heard Of in the East Indies. In
Calcutta he ran a house with forty-eight SER
wants and the richest Of %equipages. In 1884
he doomed up again in Paris in a red fez and
Turkish costume as Raymond Beg, a repre-
sentative of the khedive of Egypt. In a few
days he disappeared, leaving fabulous hotel
and other bills unpaid. He then made a raid
on our foreign consuls and few of them es-
| capped.
Raymond has undoubted genius as a
swindler. 1t was the experience of those who
knew him that he could &c into a place a per-
feet stranger and in a few hours SO work
upon the credulity of people he met that they
would be more than willing to trust him with
anything. As he usually wanted to be
trusted, this mesmerizing faculty stood him
In excellent service. It is estimated that only
a small portion of his exploits are known. 1t

SOMETHING WORTH KNOWING.
How a Consumptive Lady Cured Night
Sweats.
[speelal Correspondenee.l


Especial correspondence
NEW York, Aug. ID tell YOU" said a
gentleman with a taste for something new
ing swiftly by. Doctors of medicine will be
driven to agricultural pursuits. The contents
of pharmacies will languish on the shelves;
medical colleges will be turned into very diff
ferent institutions, and the human race grow
healthier, happier, stronger and wiser all the
time
Woked an i~nterrogatory.
"You want to know why, though you won't
believe me when | tell you. Well, all these
things will happen because the world is out
growing old ways. 1t is turning its back on
things that reach you through the stomach
alone, and travelling more and more in the
direction of things that take hold on the
mind, or enter one through the medium of
thought. Don't be afraid, I'm not going to
emit a mind-cure sermon, but | have just
heard something that makes me think in this
train of thought"
looked another ~interrogatory. He went
on: "Well, my sister, Mrs. Kardic, has
seemed to be fairly started on the road to the
grave because of consumption. She had
night sweats and every indication of that
dreadful disease. She doctored, she travelled,
but she grew no better. Indeed, we could see
that she grew steadily worse. Somebody told
her that she could cure the night sweats by
setting a large pan of fresh water under her
bed every night. .Of course she laughed at
the idea. People always dc. laugh at any rem
edy that involves neither trouble nor expense.
Ne; she rather thought such a remedy an in
suit to her intelligence. Her daughter, how
ever, thought everything worth trying, and
slipped the pan of water under the bed with
out her mother knowing it. Curious, bui
that night she missed her usual sweat. And
every night thereafter when the pan was un-
der the bed there was no sweat.
"1hen she was told and was greatly aston.
ished and delighted, After that, when the
water had not been changed, the sweats To
turned, though she did not know that the
water had not been changed, SO it couldn't
have been the result of Imagination. The
sweats have been entirely stopped by this sim.
pie remedy, and Mrs. K. seems to be getting
well. It's a simple thing, but wish you
would write it out in your newspaper letters
for it may do sufferers good. The pan must
be set under the middle of the bed, directl,
under the spine of the patient. Once, wher
Mrs. X. rolled over in her sleep on the side Of
the bed, away from the water, the sweats re
turned" ELLIS CLARINET.
