The american Advertiser Reporter of
Aug. 81 has tbs about William II. Roberts:
The arrest ,bn Wednesday last OF William
II. Roberts Ind Neil MoCellum, who had
been operating at 10 Wall street, New York,
under the tile of the "Finance Trading
Company" RECALLS an item which appeared
in the Reporbr May II. last. A letter had
been received by one OF the New York city
magazines, saying:
1 want page advertisement in June, July
and August numbers. am not in funds so as
TO pay cash, but offer note of four months Of
w. II. Roberty & Co. l inclose their statement
showing their account. II acceptable please
send contra ct and will send note and COPY.
Yours respectfully, A. Z. WooD.
This purported to have been sent from III
Broadway, but no one knew "a. E. Wood, -
at that location. The representative of the
Reporter continued his investigation, how
ever, and discovered that "W. h. Roberts
Il Co." were ostensibly "bankers" at
Marion, n. O.. with New York office at
10 Wall street. aud that among the different
enterprises for which they were financial
agents" was the North Carolina Gold
Mining and Bullion Company. Readers OF
the Reporter will recall to mind this North
Carolina Gold Mining and Bullion Com
pany, when its advertising was being sent
out from 20 Park row, the then location of
the versatile "doctor-advertising agent"
and with which DR.. Kane was intimately
related. At the time in question, however.
In may, it was In the active control of Guy
Weber, who ia now running the American
Publishing Company ("Casn for Brains'D.
This enterprisiug parsonage seemed to be in
full feather at the aforesaid bankers aud
when the Reporter said then that what
appeared to be very neat scheme was IN
covered, >" it merely anticipated the further
developments which have occurred.
The particular cause of the recent arrest
was the non-payment of a note given by
Roberts and which appears to have been
discounted IN good faith, upon the assurance
be paid when due.

lowing anecdote:

young actor, not a member of the dog star
constellation, stock man, was on the stage
1t was night, it was raining and he was
lost in the woods. I know he was lost
because he told us so. All at once he
stopped in the middle of a paintive soli..
oquy; there was dead pause; the young man
seemed to turn pale and tremble; a dog began
to bark in the wings Of the stage; the young
man looked hopelessly around at the prom t
place. The dog barked louder. Mr. Coney
yelled out from the opposite side Of the stage in
his beautiful and refined cockney brogue:

The inmates of the county jail are being
entertained with music which is suggestive
of flock of song birds rather than of the
human throat. IL is produced by James
Dorrell, a so-called wild man, brought from
Pleasanton and charged With being insane
AS ne SITS In his cell, with no other instru-
ment than leaf Of a tree and a twig of
grass, he amuses himself BY initiating the
notes of various birds. This he does to per
tection, and the music produced is simply
remarkable for its range, sweetness and
clearness.
He rather enjoys the distinction of being
called wild man and says that some of the
meu IN the labor camps near Pleasanton
had him arrested because they were afraid
OF him. He Is inclined at tunes TO be talk
alive, but he has habit OF stopping sud-
denly when about TO tell something partIc-
ularly interesting. 1t is three years since
he hrst appeared in the country, and he has
lived all that time in barns or on the hill
sides. Several attempts were made to cap
ture him, but without success till recently,
when Constable Lyster made him his pris-
oner.
As he sits in his cell there is nothing par
hcularly suggestive of insanity in his aU-
pearenca. His eyes are little f1ercs aud
rather small, and he hasn't shaved recently q,
but these are the most objectRble points
about him.
II have no relatives" be said Tonight,
and those follows at Pleasanton can't un-
derstand why a man should eat grass aud
live on the hills. They're an ignorant lot,
anyhow. Grass don't taste much different
from raw cabbage, and nobody thinks any
thing of eating that"

down the leaf and Strengthening himself

talk more. He just whistled aud appeared
TO be oblivious Of the presence OF anybody.

Judge Puster and Lawyer Alexander
Simpson of Jersey City are preparing the
papers in a suit TO be brought by Henrietta
Martin of lie West Tweuty-sixth street,
this city, against Frederick Carrard Of
Pennington, N. J., for $50, 900 for breach of
promise. Mr.. Carrard is SO years old, a
millionaire, and occupies one OF the finest
houses In Pennington. He owns a large
part Of the town. Notwithstanding his
years he has the reputation among the
towns people of being quite giddy and fond
OF flirting.
Miss Martin is 90 years old and she looks
IT, She called on Judge Puster g few days
ago and told him that she met Mr.. Carrard
last October, and she says it was a case OF
love at first sight on his part. She was
ABOUT to go TO Yonkers to a family who en-
gagged her as a servant, but Mr.. Carrard
persuaded her not to go. They are both
French. MIR. Carrard, she says, poured q
tale OF love into her ear in his impetuous
French fashion. and influenced her to 90
with him to his fine mansion in Pennington.
DE explained to her that he wanted her TO
take the place of his wife, who had died the
previous May, and as soon as the period of
mourning for his wife had elapsed he would
marry her.
Miss Martin says that, having entire con-
f1dence in her lovers honor, she consented
to the terms and went to Pennington. She
lived there in luxury from October until
the following May. She had entire charge
of Mr.. Carrards domestic affairs, purchased
everything for the house, had control of the
servants and was provided with all the
money she needed for herself. When Nav
came and the period Of mourning for her
predecessor had passed, she reminded Mr,
Carrard OF his promise to marry her. He
made excuses and kept putting her off from
time to time.
About three weeks ago they quarreled
and Carrard ordered her from the house,
He told her point blank that he would never
marry her. Almost heartbroken she left
her luxurious home IN bennington and re-
turned to her friends in this city. After
thinking over the matter for some time she
decided to bring suit, and fixing $4,000 as
the amount that would probably repair the
damage to her hopes and affections. Her
lawyer thinks that the amount may to
raised to $50, 900.
Mr.. Carrard has received notice from
Miss Martins lawyers that suit is about to
be commenced. but has paid no attention to
it. He laughs at the claim made by Miss
Martin, and he says he merely EMPLOYED
her as a servant. She didn't suit him aud
he discharged her
