CONFIDENCE OPERATORS
A Druggist Swindled by Young al
Unknown Man

A Druggist Swindled by Young and
Unknown Man.
A young man, who gave the name of
Nellis, was arrested yesterday by officer
Wilson on suspicion of being implicated
in scheme to defraud a number of
druggists in this city.
The other day young man called on a
well-known photographer in Sacramento,
and represented that he was about to en-
gage in the business photography. In the
course of the conversation he asked and
ascertained where the photographer gen.
orally purchased his nitrate of silver, the
value of pound of which is Sl3
On leaving the gallery he went to the
drugstore to which he was directed, and
presented forged order to the clerk,
calling for pound OF nitrate of silver.
His order was filed, and then he went to
another photographer to learn where he
WAS accustomed TO get his material. He
was equally successful there, and pre-
sented another forged order to the apoth-
ecary indicated, but the clerk in scruti-
nizing it saw that the word nitrate was
incorrectly spelled, and knowing that the
photographer knew how TO spell it, he be-
came suspicious and refused to fill the
order.
The young man left the place. and the
photographer was notified It WAS
learned from him that he had signed no
order.
Nellis, the man arrested, is not the
party who presented the order. but il is
thought he knows something about the
transaction

DESPOILING GRAVES.
Cemetery Employees Complain of Fre-
quent Acts of Vandalism.


quent Acts of Vandalism.
Although there is large conservatory
near the City Cemetery, where persons
who have a taste for flowers can purchase
a reasonable quantity at a small price,
and others OH the street leading to the
homes of the dead, some people seem to
prefer the rifling of graves to expending
a nickel for bunch of flowers.
Deputy Superintendent Farnsworth
called at the RECoRD-UNIoN office last
night to complain OF the acts Of vandalism
that are practicad daily by persons who
visit the cemetery. On Sundays, espe-
cially, it is not possible to watch the
throngs of visitors. and on these occa-
slons floWers are stolen from the burial
pie S by the wholesale.
Frequently the despoilers do not con-
tent themselves with stealing flowers
alone, but pull up young plants by the
roots. and even go so tar as to secrete and
carry away the vases placed upon graves
by the loving hands of bereaved relatives
and friends.
These acts Of dissertation are not, Mr..
Farnsworth says, confined to the lower
classes OF visitors, but are often COM,
mitted by well-dressed persons who are
amply able to purchase all the flowers
they need. He yesterday detected a
number of persons of this class in at
tempts to rob the graves Of their flowers,
and when demonstrated with they seemed
surprised that any objection should be
made to their. conduct. Some oil these
persons, he said, We're strangers.
A few arrests and prosecutions for this
kind OF business would doubtless have a
wholesome effect.
