VERY SLICK swINDLERs.
How They York the Residents of the Vest
 ern Rural Districts.

Chicago Inter-Ocean.
 We farmers, said the western granger to Major Hand. are, after all the favorite suckers Out in my state of Iowa they spring something new on us every few months. and we bite every time. Not long ago fellow went around my county painting patent medicine ad- vertisements on barns and fences. It was his practice to pay a farmer $5. sometimes less, for the privilege, on con- dition that the sign should not be painted over for year. For this money he, would take receipt, and here is where the trick came in. After showing re- ceipt in due form for the amount the fellow would substitute for signature a promiSsory note for $500. Several of these notes, duly signed, were taken to the nearest town where there was a bank and negotiated. Not one of the yic- tims of these swindles suspected any thing until they were called upon to pay the notes.
 "Anoth clever thing worked on us was the highland cranberry swindle. We cant grow cranberries on such land as we have in our county, and yet they are in great, demand, particularly at Thanks giving and Christmas, A fellow came around in buggy, driving from farm house to farmhouse, selling what he called highland cranberry seed. His stock in trade consisted of a few bushels of clover seed aud box of splendid cram berries. He was glib talker and made us all believe that we had only to plant these seed to make the most profitable crops that-we had ever known. The thing became craze. and we bought ev- cry pound of his clover seed and more that he got us. We paid him s10 a pound. and he got about $6O00 out of our credulity. When the seed came up as clover we would have lynched him if we could. but he was probably working the same game over again in a different part of the United States"

Uncle Sam's Indians.
Cincinnati Times-star.

Uncle Sam supports 248.253 Indians at an anual cost of about $7,00O.OO0 cash, to say nothing of the vast tracts of land occupied by them and put to no practi- cal use. As they refuse to divide it in severalty, but insist on holding 1t in common and maintaining their tribal relations, 1t. would seem as though some ganize the whole lot into one or more communes and subsist them on that bo- nus of $7.000, 900 at @ profit Twenty-eight dollars a year for every buck. .squaw and papoose is more than the nation pays for many of its white wards.

Whispering is often indulged in by the young, and my parting advice to all is never to whisper, either in the presence or absence of others. What you cannot say plainly do not say at all, and by never indulging in the practice you will never give way to it unconsciously in the presence of those who may think you are whispering of them

How to Provoke Laughter.

AS is well known, Congressman Allen OF
Mississippi Is the humorist of the House
and he is undeniably funny at times, says
the Detroit Free Press. He has no rivals
but one or two or more of his colleagues
have a lingering idea that they ought to
share few of the honors with him. One
of these was talking to him one day in
the cloakroom.
Il don't see why It is" he said, s''that
you make such hit with your speeches.
You never make one that'the whole House
doesn't come down, and sometimes when
they laugh don't see very much to laugh
at. Now some Of the things ] say, pthink,
are pretty fair, and in my own district I
have quite reputation as a humorous
speaker. Here, though. ] don't seem to
be a1le to make them laugh, and l try my
best"
Il suppose you want to-" replied Mr.. Al
len, ignoring the other portions Of the gem
tlemans remarks.
well. yes. shouldn't object" admitted
the gentlemen.
do you want me to tell you how?"
You can do IL II anybody can. OF
course I'd like to have you tell me-

most tragic whisper, try to make ithem

FORTUNE INHERITED ny A CONVICT
A FOrger In Massachusetts said to
Have Been Bequeathed $4,000, 900


From the New York Times.
Boston, Mass, April 22.-Frank Howard
Poor, formerly of Haverhil and now an
inmate Of the Massachusetts Reformato-
~ at Concord, It is said has recently been
left an estate worth Sl50OO,OOO.
Some months ago Poor committed a
forgery of which he was convicted at the
January term of the superior court and
was sentenced to the reformatory at Con-
cord for one year. The fortune that he
mas inherited comes 10 him, according to
this same Information, through the will
OF a man named Howard of Nevada. the
young man having been named after that
gentleman Other parties in Sacramento
ana Oakland, Cal, and Carson City New
are said TO be benefited by. the will,

mines, real estate mortgages, &c, Yield
ing a large yearly revenue. Poor will not
De released from the reforpatory until
January, 1886. unless his friends are sue
cesstul in securing pardon for him.
Frank Howard Poor is the only son Of
OF Alonzo Poor, who formerly belonged in
Lawrence and who lived and died In that
city. Young Poor has several wealthy
relatives among them George Poor Of
Providence, X. ]. His widowed mother
died in the almshonse, about four years
ago, and Frank, with his sister Kitty, I'M
til year ago lived with relatives in Hav-
erhill
Young Poor was reckless sort of a
youth, and during the past two years
figured in several escapades. The note he
forged last fall had the signature of Caleb
Saunders, an ex-mayor OF, Lawrence. The
forged check was discovered at the Mer-
chants Bank in Lawrence and Poor was
arrested a week after the check had been
passed.
The death of Howard, as near as can be
learned, occurred a few months ago, and
the estate is being settled by two law
firms. The Haverhill relatives received
word from these firms. and the where

the principal heir to the Howard millions,
was made known to the lawyers.
Not much Is known by the relatives Of
Poor regarding Howard. The report came
as a surprise to the relatives, but they be-
lieve the romantic story is substantiated
by letter which was received by one
of them, as 1t contained the names of all
persons to whom amounts were bequeath-
ed, and also. their residences.
