AN INGENIOUS SWINDLE.
How a COnfidins Man Was F1eeced in
Diamond Transaction.

How a Confiding Man Was F1eeced in q
Diamond Transaction.
A citizen of New York, who prefers
that his name be kept from the public,
called at the World Office yesterday to
tell of an ingenious swindle practiced
upon him.
Wishing to buy some diamonds re-
Gently said this gentleman, Il was at
tracted by an advertisement in a morn
ing paper which read: Gentleman
meeting reverses pawned valuable dia-
monds-ring, earrings and pin. Tick
cts sacrificed separately
Il wrote to the advertiser and nice
addressed man, calling himself j. May
nard. answered in person. He told such
narrowing tale of losing money
through the perfdy of friends; of mort
cages on his furniture which would be
foreclosed Immediately, unless he could
sell his pawn-tickets: of his invalid
wife and how she would be turned out
in the cold world, that decided to take
the trouble to investigate. He gave as
reference the proprietor of a tailor store
at No. Al Third avenue, and the latter
had nothing but good to say of the man.
The pawnbroker said he knew nothing
OF j. Maynard, but supposed him to be
as he represented himself
"a friend of mine, who was to ap-
praise the diamonds, being unable to be
present, the pawnbroker offered to let
his clerk accompany US to a neighbor-
ing expert ieweler, to which l foolishly
assented. The diamonds were very
critically examined with a magnifying
glass for several minutes and finally
pronounced frst-class color, good cut,
practically perfect in every way and a
big bargain at $50. 1 bought the $3.50
worth of precious gems and will be very
happy to sell them to any one for $500.
Whether the jeweler dishonesty ap-
praised the diamonds for share of the
profits, or whether some frst-class dia-
monds were shown him which were by
a trick changed for very inferior ones
OF the same size. 1 do not know. A
great many parties have probably been
caught by this same swindle and many
more probably will be. If this should
be the means of saving only one victim
l am satisfied"

From heart to heart, the tidings sped:
From lip to lip she message rang;
Oh. never hope. since time began,

Earth smiled upon her Prophets way:
The skies Of winter softer shone:
And balnny were the ocean gales

Then thrilled with answering bugles cleal
While DER the swelling Austral seas
We heard our brothers welcoming cheer!
Oh soul to SOUL We fe.t -FOUR Joy.

Our lives in sacred fealty.

And fettered earth rewards wirhholds,
That once with lavish hani She gave.

The irrevocable doom declare.

Who led thy captive people forth.

With spirit vision undenied.

A Cur0 for Dinhfheria.

The following remedy is said to be
the best known. At least it is worth
trying, for physicians seem powerless
to cope with the disease successfully.
At the first indication of diphtheria in
the throat Of a child make the room
close; then take tin cup and pour into
1t a quantity Of tar and turpentine,
equal parts Then hold the cup over a
fire so as to fill the room with fumes.
The little patient on inhaling the
fumes will cough up and spit out all the
membranous matter, and the diphtheria
will pass of. The fumes of the tar and
turpentine loosen the matter in the
throat, and thus afford the relief that
has bsfled the skill of physicians

CHAPTER VL.-CoSTINUED.


Another hour; the slope of the great
peak could not be more than two miles
away now. A couple of hundred yards
of grew large, baobale tree. Could
we reach its shade! We had done half
the distance when Indaba-zimbi fell
from exhaustion. We were now so
weak that neither of US could lift the
child on to our backs. We each took
one of her hands and dragged her
along the road. Fifty yards-they
seemed to be fifty miles. All! the tree
was reached at last; compared with the
heat outside, the shade Of its dense
foliage seemed like the dusk and cool of
vault. l remember thinking that it
was good place to die in. Then l re-
member no more.
woke with feeling as though the
blessed rain were falling on my face
and head. Slowly and with great diff
ficulty l opened my eyes, then shut
them again, having seen a vision. For
a space l lay thus, while the rain con-
tinued to fall; l saw now that l must be
asleep, or of my head with thirst or
fever. If l were not Off my head how
came ! to imagine that a lovely, dark
eyed girl was bending over me sprink-
ling water on my face? a white girl,
too, not Kafiir woman. However, the
dream went on.
'.Hendrika," said voice in English,
the sweetest yoice that had ever heard;
somehow it reminded me of wind whis-
pering in the trees at night. ''Hendrika,
fear he dies; there is a flask of brandy
in my saddle-bag; get it,
"Ah! ah!' grunted harsh voice in
answer: :',et him die, Miss Stella. He
will bring you bad luck-let him die,
say" 1 felt movement of air above
me as though the woman Of my vision
turned swiftly, and once again opened
my eyes. She had risen. this dream
woman. Now / saw that she was tall
and graceful as a reed. She was angry,
too; her dark eyes flashed, and she
pointed with her hand at female who
stood before her, dressed in nondescript
kind of clothes such as might be worn
by either man or woman. The
woman was young, of white blood, very
short, with bowed legs and enormous
shoulders. In face she was not bad
looking, but the brow receded, the chin
and ears were prominent-in short, she
reminded me of nothing SO much as
very handsome monkey. She might
have been the missing link.
The lady was pointing at her with her
hand. How dare your she said. Are
you going to disobey me again? Have
you forgotten what told you, Be byan
(baboon)?"
''Ah! ah!' grunted the woman, who
seemed literally to curl and shrivel up
beneath her anger Don't be angry
with me, Miss Stella, because l can't
bear it. Ionly said it because it was
true. 1 will fetch the brandy"
Then, dream or no dream, 1 deter
mined to speak.
Not brandy" gasped in English as
