Sharpers of all kinds seem to be food.
ing this region. The Mahanoy City
Record gives an account of trouble with
one in that town on Tuesday night The
trouble arose out of a purchase of a
chain from a travelling fakir. The fakir
was selling the chains for the genuine
article and charged fifty cents for them
claiming that each was worth double the
money. On this assurance quite large
number of his audience purchased, but
on close scrutiny some of the smarter
ones found that the chains were nothing
more than common brass and practically
worthless All were soon acquainted
with the true facts, and then and there
demanded that the money be returned.
The fakir closed up and tried to quit the
place, but the str jnger ones hedged him
in. He mounted convenient wagon box
and tried to argue, but still of 10 avail.
Az last he agreed to return the money
upon return of the chains, and general
rush was made for the wagon. When
about half returned he made use of the
old guy that he had already returned
more money than he had sold chains.
This further angered the crowd, as great
many still had the worthless chains in
their possession, and a mad rush was
made for the fakir, with no mild inten
ton. The fakir saw that further remon
STRANGE was useless and returned the
money to all those who had the chains,
and quit the place Immediately.

FLM-FLAM MEN IN TOWN /!

Two PeddlerS of Town Put in the Sun
bury Jail After Securing a Re-
lease on the Strength OF
Worthless Check.

The people of this town are warned
against the operations of two film fam
mers. They are men who follow in the
wake of circuses, fairs, or anything else
that draws people TO town, but during the
past few days have been working the
game on the quiet here. They are well
known to the police of this region and
would now be under arrest if the parties
they have tried to victimize were not
indisposed to bother with lawsuits. The
worthy pair stopped farmer on North
Main street on Tuesday and asked him
for pound of butter. They were sup
piled and one of them rendered five
dollar bill in payment. The farmer
placed the exact change in the pur-
chaser's hand, but the latter, with a
quick movement caused dollar
to disappear and argued that the change
was short. The trick was done before
the farmers wide-open eyes and he was
at first inclined to believe that he had
made a mistake, but his better judgment
prevailed and after a hot argu ment he
succeeded in convincing the Hammers"
that he was not to be beaten. The two
men were very anxious to conduct the
argument in an undertone and slipped
away when they saw a crowd gather. Later
in the day the men went into West Centre
street butcher shop and purchased Il
pound of bologna. The intended victim
escaped more by force of circumstances
than anything else. He tried to break
the five dollar bill, but couldn't scrape
enough change together and refused to
leave the shop to get the bill changed.
Two young men of town became apt
pupils of the sharpers and are now said
to be working the game at Mt. Carmel
and Shamokin The whole gang is being
closely watched.

A MAGNIFICENT WORK.
The Funk and Wagnalls Standard Die
tiOnary Now Completed.


After five years of immense labor and
an expenditure of almost a million dol
lars Funk & Wagnals, of New York city,
have completed their Standard Dictionary
of the English Language The second
and last volume has just been issued.
The great amount of expert labor spent
upon the work may be realized from the
statement that no fewer than 247 special
lists and other editors were engaged upon
it and the actual cost before completed
copy was ready for the market was S960,
900. All men engaged upon the work
were of worldwide reputation for expert
knowledge and scholarship. The work
approaches perfection nearer than any
other of modern times and embodies
many new principles in photography. 1t
contains 2,33S pages 5 900 illustrations,
made expressly for it; SOl, ,s65 vocabulary
terms, which is nearly two and half the
number of terms in any single-volume
dictionary, and about "a, 900 more than in
any other dictionary of the language.
The work cannot be overestimated and is
decided improvement upon other
notable dictionaries of recent issue.

so very interesting as to hold the audience
spell-bound from first to last. 1t is a play
that appeals to the average theatre goer
and pleases all classes, having an equal
division of comedy and pstbos Incidental
