Fleeced by Bunco Men.

NoRR1sTowN, Pa, April Sin the latter
part of July, 1888, Jacob R. Reiff, a retired
wealthy farmer at Center Square, this
county, was fleeced out of $4,000 worth Of
bonds by pair OF Dunco sharpers, who
had been negotiating with him for week
before, ostensibly with view to purchas.
ing farm in the neighborhood. The Sc
curities were principally certificates of the
Cincinnati Southern railroad and were
worth something less than face value.
Every effort was made to gain clue to the
swindlers but without success. About
eight weeks ago Farmer Reiff received a
call from q well dressed stranger who,
after eXtOrting every promise of secrecy,
represented to Reiff that he was a New
York detective and could restore the bonds.
He said q broker of his acquaintance had
bought them of the broker and were
afraid to sell them lest ne be arrested for
swindling. The price asked for the re-
turn of the stolen bonds was $8,O0O Reiff
declined to pay such sum as this. Several
consultations were held in the next few
weeks and finally it was decided that if
tiOns and promise to make no effort to
secure the arrest of the person who had
swindled him, the bonds would be restored.
Reitf's counsel, it has been ascertained,
went to New York recently with $4,000 of
Reiff's money in his pocket, met the self
styled detectives, signed the agreement of
secrecy referred to, and returned with the
bonds, which are now safe in Reiff's pos
session.

Inhuman Treatment.

CHICAGO, April 1O.-James Botten, a
bed ridden paralytic, who was also suffer-
ing acutely from Bright's disease of the kid
neys Iwas patient at the home of incur
ables. A few days ago, when his wife and
daughter visited him, they found his face
bruised, his eyes blackened and his tongue
badly cut by his teeth. He told them that
these injuries were inflicted by attendants
at the institution, who were in the habit of
striking him with their fists. 1t appears
they did this to prevent him from groaning
when suffering from paroxysms of pain.
The wife and daughter complained to the
Women's Protective association, which
made an investigation. The results indi-
Gated that the management Of the institu-
tion were guilty of heartless cruelty to the
unfortunates in its care. Botten died
yesterday and coroner's jury to-day re-
turned the following verdict: We: the jury,
find that the deceased came to his death
from heart clot, but we believe he was
subjected to acts of violence and abuse,
which may nave hastened his decease, and
we recommend that the matter be investi-
gated by the grand jury.

Married on the Train.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April "a hand
some young man, about 25 years of age,
wllked back and forth on the Union depot
platform this morning, apparently in a
highly excited state of mind. Early in the
day he had secured section 10 of the
sleeper Iroquois, which was due to leave
for Wichita at 9:28 o'clock. just three min
utes before the signal was given for de-
parture, the Wabash fast train from St.
Louis steamed into the depot. A beautiful
young lady stood on the platform of one of
the cars. The young man rushed forward
and assisted the newcomer to alight,
escorting her hurriedly to the west
end Of the depot where the sleeper was in
waiting. AS fhe entered the car, a gentle
man dressed in black followed and was
handed a document, presumably mar
riage license. In the presence of Il. III.
Rutters and A. A. McDOugall, of the Pull.
man car company. and Conductor Care
ton, the words were quickly spoken which
made the couple man and wife. The cere-
mOny occupied less than a minute, and as
the law Of the state does not require
either witnesses or signatures Of friends to
a marriage certificate, the names of the
two who were thus strangely united were
That individual disappeared from the car
into the crowd and the train sped away to
the city of bOoms in southern Kansas.
