consists of two gallon jug, full Of

Ross RAYMOND, the gaudy and in
dustrious swindler aud confidence man,
who once was good newspaper
writer, has been sentenced to two years
in Sing Sing prison. Raymond is one
Of the most plausible of takers and
one Of the most innoccnt.loolling Of
men, but 1t is strange for all that, in
view of how well.known his record
was, that he should have received the
slightest penalty for his olrcnse. The
Judge was impressed by Raymonds
talk and bearing and so was the prose-
cutting attorney, the latter actually in.
tcrccding in his behalf. Raymond,
taken all around, is certainly daisy.
