from the officers showed the Institution
to be in it's usual fourishing condition,

business transacted by the meeting was
the purchase of the store OF Doran &
McDermOtt at the corner of Cedar ave-

been doing good business and the
purchase is practically a consolidation
of the interests, as Doran will take

become manager of the store, which
will be moved to the Cedar avenue loca-

Playing Confidence Games.
From the New York Telegram.

GA new class CT swindlers have begun
operations in Fifth Avenue and Upper
Broadway" said one of Inspector
Byrnes' detectives this morning while
watching a well-dressed woman across
the street.
THAT lady over there is a leading
member of the gang" he continued.
"She would make $40 or $15 to-day if let
alone. She used to be a shop-lifter.
Because of the danger of detection, and
a certain knowledge that she'd be SEN
fenced for the longest term possible if
again arraigned before any justice in
this city, she and some of her former
companions have conceived the idea of
making a good living as aristocratic beg

gang Will accost him in the middle of a
block, out of hearing distance. Her
manner of greeting him would lead any
one across the street to think her an
acquaintance. In low tone she SAYS
she has lost her pocketbook or been
robbed. Her husband or brother, of
course, is member of the same ex-
change as the gentleman addressed.
Her name is given and recognized, and
then, with false embarrassment and
bushes, she would trouble her victim
for few dollars
mine times out of ten the unsuspect-
ing individual will say, Why, certainly !;
pray don't mention it, and pass over a
tive-dollar note in a hurry, glad at the
opportunity to do it. The swindler asks
for his card and goes in search of an
other victim, after expressing her
hearty thanks. The same person is
never struck twice, and in this way the
swindlers escape positive detection a
few of the fraternity will tackle mem
bers of their own sex with story calcu-
lated to win dollar or two; but this is
only done when there is scarcity of

lodges, and are often successful simply

SOMEBODY.
BY PEARL EYrINGE.

Somebody thinks the world all wrong
And never has a word in it's praise:
Somebody sings the whole day long,
Likes the world and all it's ways
Somebody says it's queer old place,
Where none of the people do as they should /;
Somebody thinks it full of grace
And wouldn't change the folks IL he could.
Somebody calls it cruel and cold,
Full OF sin and sorrow and pain,
Where life is but a search for gold,
And souls are lost in selfish gain.
Somebody merrily laughs, and cries:
~Hurrah for such dear old earthl
Success shall crown the man that tries
To axe his mark by honest worth.
Somebody groans and shakes his head,
Calls his lot wretched one;
somebody wishes that he were dead,
For somebody else has all the fun.
But somehow notice you generally find.
In good or evil, pain or care,
To one thing sure, you may make up your
mind:
Somebody dttoays gets his share.
