A SHARP EAI1IR

A jewelry fakir opened a stand at
Fifth and Market streets Saturday af-
ternoon, and to get a crowd. he began
giving away cheap jewelry. He then
sold cuff buttons at 90 cents pair and
gave back the money to those who had
purchased the buttons. He held up
some cheap watch chains and said to
those who would give him 81 for a
chain he would give a present valued
at ST. He sold twenty-six and the
presents he gave were boxes Of corn
salve. When the people saw they were
duped a rush was made for the fakir
but Captain Kane escorted him to the
police station. The money was refunded
to the people.
