METHOD MADNESS
How n Luuafic Deiuded n Town in
Arknusas.

A Hot Springs (hrk.) special says: This
CITY i pow IN a rear over the ludicrous man.
ner IN which South Hot Springs, better
known A. Jamestown, has been "tsken H."
A few days ago an old man OF genteel ap-
pearance driited into the south end OF the
town and represented himself as a California
millionaire. He talked smoothly OF his vast
possessions in California. These included
railroads, vineyards, fast horses, orange
groves, and ranches. He desired 10 engage
dozen responsible men for good positions
that would pay from 81 1000 10 5000 year,
and he believed he could find such men right
here.
This talk was eagerly swallowed by the
people and they became closely attached to
the old man, who said his name was Harper.
They showered fayors on him aud would not
receive payment. Finally 3 grand supper
was given in bis behalf by about fifty men,
and there were flowers, wines, and music.
At the banquet the old man made a speech
and said he wished 10 give his iriendss genu-
Inc mark Of his affection. He retired 70
room and in hall an hour returned with an
armiul OF envelopes. "These, friends" said
he, "contsin nv checks for various amounts
aud the only stipulation make is that they
must not be opened until tomorrow" Then
there was more rejoicing and the old man
was fairly norshipped.
One woman could not stand the pressure
and ran home and opened her envelope. She
found It contained a leaf OF an old almanac
with proverbs like this: "a fool and his
money are soon parted" All that gIitters Is
not gold" &c. Boiling with indignation
she returned 10 the banquet rooms and
showed her check. Then there was stimuli
tane0us opening OF envelopes, and what a
scene followed All contained pieces OF
almanac Jokes. The old man was put 10 jail
on the charge OF fraud. The specific charge
was obtaining $50 from Squire Witter. Yes
terdsy il developed that the old man was an
escaped lunatic from Jacksonville, ILL.,,
named James sykes.
