ded a communication of the sentence. The

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 23-The Record
will to-morrow publish an article exposing
a well laid plan of Cuban sharpers to
swindle gulliblc P~hiladclphians. 1t is
supposed they have reaped a rich harvest.
The plan of procedure adopted by the
swindlcr was to write to his intended We
tim, representing himself as a prisoner in
the royal prison at Havana. and offering
to reveal to him the spot where $ll5,OOO
was buried in a glass jar on the outskirts
of New Orleans. He obtained this money,
he SAID, upon drafts on a New Orleans
bank and fearing that he would be ar
rested he buried it. lie offered to dis
close the place of burial andi allow the
person addressed one quarter of the
amount, sl03,OOn. if he would cndeavor
to obtain the writer's liberty. After re-
%cciving u reply from his victim, he would
again write. enclosing what pur-
ported To be an official copy of
AN order from the court refusing
his permission to have his baggage unless
he deposited with the court 81 800 ms
security for the safe return OF the same.
As the baggage contained the plan of the
location OF the hidden money, and as he
had not the $l.jOO to deposit As security.
he thus gave an opportunity for his vie
tim to volunteer to SEND that amount OF
money to Havana. The Rec0ri asserts
that a number of persons have been vie
timized. 1t is uncertain whether or not
anything can be done towards securing the
arrest of the swindlcr. The Spanish
authorities have. however, beca notified
and an investigation into the management
OF the royal prison at Havana will be

state banks, private bankers, and from
prominent manufacturers, aud many mor-
chants seem also To have directed their
attention to the maintenance Of the exist

communicate them to him 50 that he

fifty small catfish, not more than a
quarter of an inch in length, very
near the shore, and if you look ten

see the mother cat. If Il noise is
made she will make q sign that the
little "cats" understand as we'll as
chickens do the cluck of an old
hen when a hawk is in the neigh
borhood. and run into the open
mouth of the old catfish, who will
then turn and swim of in safety
with her young. Mr.. Thomas
Davis, of this city, some time ago
told us that he had noticed this
care of mother catfish for her
young. lie said that he has often
seen the young fish swimming
about in shallow water, while the
old fish would not be far of. II
danger threatened the old "catty'
would rush in among her young,
and by a vigorous motion of fins
stir up the mud until the water be-
came discolored and the young fish
could no longer be seen. When
the water would become clear again
neither old nor young fish would

A little more than q 100 years
ago the manufacture of steel may
be said to have had a beginning in
England. About that time there
was living in Sheffield, in north
England, a man by the name
of Huntsman. He was watch
and clock maker and he had so
much trouble in getting steel
that would answer for his springs,
he determined to make some
steel himself. He experimental
or long time in secret, and after
a great many failures he pro-
duced a superior quality of steel.
The best steel to. be obtained at
that time was made by the Hin
docs AMI it cost in England $780,
900 a ton; but Huntsman's steel
could be had for $500 a ton. AS
he found ready market for all the
steel he could make he deteririn ed
to keep his invention secret, and
no one was allowed to enter his
works except his workmen and
they were sworn to secrecy. But
other iron and steel makers were
determined to find out how he pro-
duced the quality of steel he made,
and this is how they accomplished
it at last: One dark and bitter
cold night a wretched looking beg
gar knocked at the door of Hunts
mans works AMI asked shelter
from the storm that was raging
without. The workmen, pitying
the supposed beggar, gave him per
mission to come in and find warmth
and shelter near one of the fur
naccs. In a little while the
drowsy bcggar fellasleep, or seemed
10 do so, bat beneath his torn and
shabby hat his half shut eyes
vatche eagerly every movement
made by the men about the fur
lace, anl as the calrgin5 OF the
melting pots, heating the furnaces
AMI at last pouring the STEEL into
;ngots took several hours to accom-
p!ish, the forgotten beg5tr slept
long, and, as it seemed, soundly IL
the corner where he lay. 1t turned
out that the apparent beggar was
A we'll to-do iron maker living neal

The song of home grew out Of q

light when he was blind and Bun
yam wrote of the Pilgrims progress
while manacled in prison. There
is no place like home. People who
live in boarding houses sing it. II
the dau gh;er of a Methodist minis
ter remembers the home of her
childhood, her memory must be a
polyglot. Home is woman's tenn
pie. There she is goddess and vo-
tary both. She is also usually jan
itor. a man. loves his home be-
cause it is refuge. He also loves
it because there he is a great man
there he is governor, or at least
lieutenant-governor. And anyhow
he is certain to be secretary of the
tire asury. The world forgets us
when we pass away, but the home
love forgets our vices; exaggerates
our virtues, until they outnumbel
the stars in the heavens, and hands
our names down, as long as the es-
tate holds out.
