John Rhoads, q farmer living at Oordova,
Talbot county, Md, was heeeed ont OF
81 500 In cash u day or two ago by trio OF
confidence men and by the aid OF All old
and very simple trick. Monday week three
men arrived ut CordnvR and put up at the
public house In the little village. The next
morning they sought out Mr.. RhoGds and
stated that they desired to purchase a
small property. Rhoads had some lind he
was anxious to sell and he took tho bait
readily. After some pickering price was
fixed rs mutually satisfactory and the de-
tails Tor payment In cash were arranged.
One of the men raised the question as to
Rhoads' ability 20 give clear title whore.
upon the latter offered every assurance OF
Bis ability TO do so. Rhoads' word would
not go with this trio OF eonsplratora, and as
money talked the tune that pleased their
ears they suggested that RhoRds put up
81 500, tue price OF the land, against the
same amount on their part as guarantee
OF good faith. Rhoads had no d uht as to
the title to his property, and fell into the
trap without suspicion. The crooks had
new tin box into which the money was
to bs locked, and MIR. RhoAds was TO have
both the box and its contents, Rhoads said
he would have to go to ID nton for the cash,
and one of tho mon expressed himself de-
lighted ut this Information, as ne also had
10 no TO Denton TO get the purchase money
from his sister.
RhoAds went to bank, drew out 1900 In
bills, and, vita his purchaser, returned to
his home. Toe box was gotten out, the
money counted and deposited in the tin
receptacle. Just befo Mr. Rhoads locked
the boz, the men engaged his attention and
directed his gaze from the little store OF
wealth for u moment.
In that BRIEF interval one OF the triolhad
deXtfiously transferred the cash from the
tin box to bis pocket. Rhoade, unconscious
o the costly sleight OF hand act that had
been performed at his expense, turned the
key In the tin box's lock, and tho $4,000
Was supposed to be securely locked up.
The msD departed promising TO cali nexr
day for the papers Of transfer, rautlontng
hr. Rhoads to keep their money safe. The
farmer after returning tho same night be-
gan thinking over his transaction of the
day and considered his land well sold 1t
occurre to him after thinking the matter
over for q time to get up and take peep
at his money. Ee secured the key to the
box, hastily opened the little receptacle and
by the unsteady light Of a email coal oil
ilame discovered that the supposed horde
of wealth he was so carefully kaepiug con-
sisted OF two or three slips of paper and
three poker CUPS,
There was no more sleep In the Rhoads
household that night and the next day the
duped man was in the city comforting With
the police department In hope OF recover
ing n.s lost ~, 800.

H4ZLEToN, Pa, Oct. 13.-In local paper
there appeared this morning q reward OF
800 for the recovery, dead or alive, of the
body OF Flora Malloy, the two-years-old
daughter Of John Malloy, resident OF
HHzeton, who has been missing since We'd
nesday last. The disappearance of the
child occasloned much excitement here,
and as a report spread that the little girl
had been spirited away by italian padronee
1t WAS feared that the bad feeling would
give rise to violence.
Searching parties were organized and
the town council was asked to Offer re-
ward, but some of tho borough officials
hesitated 10 take this step and last night
the matter had assumed such Importance
In the eyes OF the towngpeople that COM
mites com osed OF prominent mon placed
On advertisement ia the PIata Speaker
Offering reward Of $50.
This stimulated doz9ns of people to Join
Ia the search for tbs missing one. The
hills and sWamps ic the neighhorhood were
secured. A. least fifteen different parties
went IN US many dtf55ent direotlcns, but
many returned disheartened. FIva parties
OF Italians went out, anxious 70 fad the
child aud remove the stigma Of orlEle from
their countrymen. Tho mother Of the child
seemed 10 have lost control OF her reason
and was ungb,e 10 reeollect any details in
the girls features or dress which might
5erve as a means Of Identification.
About 9 o'clock HRS. z tyler, the wife OF
the high constable OF Hazleton Borough,
found the child In a swamp about two
mites from Hszleton. Che was sunk almost
out OF sgnt Ia the hog and life was about
gone. Mrs. Zsigler pulled her out and car
lied her TO the nearest hou3e. A physician
was summoned aud he gave the nee Led re-
storAtives.
Tho mothers reason had temporarily de-
parted and she JAILED to Recognizes the child
for some time.
Nobody can explain how the child came
to be placed In such an inaccessible place.
There are some who stoutly insist that she
was placed there by tho persons who ab-
Quoted her, II any abduction was at
terapted, and that, fear rg detection, they
had abandoned her there. 1t is more than
probable, however, that she wandered
away.
Liter-Tte child died ct 8 O'Clock this
evening. II Is feared that the strain on the
mother will be too much and that she will
lose her reason.

How the C0iOred Children Arc

Philadelphia Record.
Tue color line III the schools, which has
been source OF considerable Fiction In
the Twenty-secoud ward school board for
some time, Is now cause OF d!seord In tho
Thirty-fourth ward, and before long 1t
promises TO INTRODUCES disagreeable compli-
cations in other wards. The trouble ia the
Tbirty-fourth ward ARISES from the attend
ance OF young colored girl, Sarah Shell
ton, whose father, N. Bnelton, livos at
Fltty.hfth and Markets streets, at the Norris
j. Hoffman school, at F fty-fiith and Vine
streets. Sarah had been pupil at the
Union Colored Secondary school on Hamil-
ton street above BlxtY.third, but as the
other school was much nearer her home
che preferred to go TO 1t, gnd she secured
the necessary transfer from James Barlow.
one Of the school dlree ora of the board.
For this action Mr.. Barlow has been CEN
suced by the board by a vote OF to s. and
a delightful lack OF harmony now exists In
the board. The critics OF Mr.. Barlow say
that this action was taken because he had
violated the rules of he board, and not
because o; anY prejudice on the color ques-
ton, but this explanation Ia looked upon hs
decidedly gGu2g. Ia no meantime Ssrah
shelton attends the Norris J. HofrmGn
School with the white ssaolars.
II is Heu-eataolsutA Itct lnat no GNU
can be- prevented, by reeson OF Its color,
from attending echooi to which 1t has ii
right to go. and tn colored people, as i.
rule, know this very we'll. They generally
take advantage OF II. too, 10 the rtquent
enibarra smant Of school directors, prlnei-
pals and te9ihnrs.
just at present, owInS to the Italians, Rus
sian and other foreign immigrants swarm
Ing into the Fourth and Fifth wards and
the eastern end Of the Seventh, there is "a
rapid shifting OF the colored popula Ton of
THAT section to tho westward, and this
movamen' Is beginning to affect the schools.
Tho u. s. Grant School at Seventeenth and
Pine streets, which mas always been very
y pular among the white children Of tine
neighborhood, now has d numbeFof oolored
scholars, and the presence OF these Is be-
ginning to have an affect on the white
children. There Il eolored school, the
Octavus V. Cato, 10 the same ward, on
Lombard street above Twentieth, but by a
strange perversity OF nature, mos, Golorud
people prefer to send their children TO white
schools instead OF those set apart for them.
Toe cOlored children are much better
taught IL their own schools than Ia ths
white, whore their reception is not always
cordial; but when they have right to go
to a white school because It Ia nearer their
home than colored school they must be
taken In.
There are some admirable colored
schools in tho city, notably the Roberts
Vaux, Ia the Fourteenth ward, bat many Of
the colored people seem to have pteju-
dice againgt them. THIS i'd unfortunate, but
II Is nevertheless the case, and the color
line promises TO DO M clement of disturb
ance IN the public schools for a long time

Editorial Comment of the New York
HEribunes, Thereon.


The remarkable series OF explosions In
the du Point powder works, on the Brandy
wine, was caused by the cArelessnes5 OF
painstaking workman. The first explosion
occurred IN one OF the pRcking.rooms
where William Il. Green was soldering
can Of prismstic powder. AS he was one oil
the FIRST victims OF the disaster, being In
stantly killed, the explanations OF the cause
are largely theoretical; but his associates
and employers are convinced that his SOL
dering-iIon was overheated, and that the
powder In the can was ignited by 1t. Ia
s-antly the packing-mill exploded and
seven or eight rolling and mixing mills
closely connected with 1t were destroyed.
The fact that Green was the only man IN
the " rks who was allowed TO do this SOL
dering sufficiently attests his carefulness
and the confidence In which he was held
by his employers. The disaster, with Its loss
OF life and destruction Of valuable property,
10 apparently to be attributed to tho work
mans neglect OF precautions which he mad
ordinarily employed. There Is no other
business where the risks OF accident are 60
great as In the manufacture, storage and
shipment OF powder. The du Points have
conducted their business from the opening
OF the century with marked SUCCESS ana
practical sagaeity, but have not been ex
empt from the vicissltudes of so dangerous
form of manufacture. All the mills
ana storage DulluluB5 Woto AON
structures built with special reference
to the possibility OF destruction by
explosion; and the list OF Killed
and wounded was materially reduced Dy
the general plan OF construction. This is
Of itself a practical demonstration OF the
painstaking care with which the business
OF making highly explosive powder WAS
conducted on the 3randywine. With the
largest exercise OF caution RaG practical
skill liability to death dealinR explosions
could only be reduced, not overcome.
One incident OF this remarkable disaster
deserves TO be singled out IS Offering
striking illustration Of American ccolness
and courage In q great crisis. While tha
swarm Of workmon were still dazed by the
destructive force OF an explosion which was
heard and felt 40 miles away, the roof OF
large refinery containing powder wss seen
TO be blazing In the centre OF the village.
The danger OK another series OF explosions
by which every house would DO wrecked
was appalling; but Colonel du Pont, escap
ing frcm the runs OF his Office had the pres
euoe OF mind 10 rally an amateur Gre
brigade and TO avert further loss OF life and
property. Below the burning shingles was
a large quantity Of powder. For the work
men TO light the flames was to take their
lives In their own hapds; but they made
the fight, and won under Colonel duPocts
gallant leadership. After an interval OF
narrowing suspense, during which the
SPECTATORS momentarily expected renewal
of the terrific explosions the roof was
drenched with water and the last smoul-
derirg ember extinguishsd. 1t was con-
epicuous illustration OF self-possesslon and
bravery under circumstances OF extreme
danger.
