POORLY DEVISED FAKE.

Harry WillmOre the man who has a
tale Of woe with brand new bicycle
attachment. by which he coaxes money
from individuals, has a competition on
the West Side. Yesterday big 22O-
pound man, giving his name as Wat
son, went briskly up to a dwelling on
Fifteenth street and asked for the man
of the house. I'm Mr.. Watson" he
explained, authoritatively, when the
man Of the house appeared. Then ne
continued in smooth running way:
I'm in hard luck, sir. Perhaps j don't
look it, but / am the mine Inspector of
the Lackawanna coal regions, and the
truth Is, l am short of funds. ! want
Is cents to carry me to Pittston, where
my services are required Immediately.
Now, sir, ] want you to advance the
sum and I will repay you in the fu-
ture."
well" answered the man of the
house, eff you are mine inspector, why
don't you ask Johnnie HOFFMAN or some
other foreman for the money!"
Really, ! never thought of that"
"And l thought" continued the man
of the house, that mine inspectors
carry passes"
Mr.. Watson became uneasy, and after
receiving several more shots, one of
which came from the leg of the man Of
the house. he left. Trying to palm off
such a fake as that on a miner shows
real ignorance.

Small Accidents.

One of the most striking instances OF
negligence resulted in an accident TO
a bicyclist last night In front OF Tros-
ties meat market on jackson street the
pave had been torn up and an eXcava-
tion made to the gas main. The art
was afterward piled back into the hole
and owing to the loosening of the dtrt
the filed in part was higher by over
a foot than the level of the road. This
was not all. The slabs of asphalt which
were taken up were left piled upon the
pave few feet from the heap OF
dirt. No light or other danger signal
was placed at the spot last night, and
q number of small accidents were the
result.
VIII Lewis, a bicyclist, was riding
along al a speedy gait when he struck
the obstruction. and was hurled to the
asphalt. his body striking the chunks
of pave. Lewis was badly bruised and
the wheel was DANA ged. A horse pull
ing a buggy also struck the pieces Of
pave. The horse stumbled and was
scraped about the knees.
