REGARDED AS A SWINDLE.
Investigation of Society Which OBJ
tains Money From Negroes.

Washington, May 20.-An investiga-
tion is being made by the officials of
the postoffice department into the bus
mess methods of the "Ex-Slav Mutual
Relief, Bounty and Pension associa-
tion.'
The attention of the post office auth
critics was first called to the matter by
the officials of the pension office, who
had received many letters of inquiry
about the promised payment of pen
sions to former slaves. The matter had
already been looked up by Chief Wilkie
of the treasury secret service, as the
result of a letter referred to him by
Secretary of the Navy Long He found,
however, that it was a matter with
which he could do nothing. If it should
be found that there is evidence of for
mer slaves being defrauded on a large
scale the postoftice department will
stop the mail of the association.
Additional evidence of the magnitude
of the operations of the association
was given today by Register of the
Treasury Lyons, the leading represen-
tative of the colored race connected
with the present administra ton. Mr..
Lyons said that he was very glad to
see the newspapers taking hold of this
subject
from colored people from all parts of
the south and southwest asking him If
there is any possibility of congress
passing law to pension former slaves,
as contemplated by the promoter of the
"Ex-Slave Mutual Relief, Bounty and
Pension association Treasurer Lyons
has replied in every instance that the
scheme is a transparent fraud upon its
face. and he has advised his people not
to be fleeced out of their money not
even to the extent of a 2-cent postage
stamp, in communicating with the men
connected with the so-called bounty
and pension association.
He says he has heard that hundreds
of cOlored people in Georgia have been
induced by the glittering promises and
assertions of the agents of the asso-
citation to contribute the registration
fee of 25 cents. In one little town in
Georgia over 200 victims subscribed %
cents each, under the impression that
they would certainly receive a pension
from the government at an early day.
He says there ought to be some law to
prevent ill-advised and ignorant color
ed people from thus being swindled by
designing men

FARMER ROBBED OF $4,000.
Green Goods Men Got Him to Draw
the Money and Then Held Him Up.

Joliet, Ill. May 2O.-Ex- Supervisor j.
J. Smiley, a wealthy farmer of Custer
Will county, was fieeced out of $4,000
in cash by two green goods men.
Last night two strangers arrived at
BraidwOOd, and this morning they went
to the Smiley residence, four miles from
Wilmington, where the scheme was
planned. A few hours later Mr.. Smi-
ley appeared at Whitten's bank in
Wilmington and drew out $4,000. The
bank asked Mr.. Smiley if he wanted a
draft, and he replied that he must have
the cash to carry a deal through. The
statement aroused the bankers suspic-
ion, and after Smiley left he sent a man
to learn, if possible. if there was any
scheme on foot to fleece Smiley. The
buncO men. however, had got in their
work and Mr.. Smiley was found at his
home, robbed of all the cash The
strangers did not work their regular
game, but when Smiley was couple of
miles from town they met him, and, at
the points of revOlVers, demanded the
money, got it and escaped.

GIBSON'S ORIGINAL GIRL.

[From the National Magazine1
AS Miss JObina How1and sits and
looks at you, you realize Immediately
that she is a tall girl with a face of
patrician stamp and of undenia bic
beauty, that she has a queenly poise of
the head and a frank yet serious air,
but it is only when she rises and comes
she is. You need to be tall yourself,
tall even for man, not to find that
you must look up to her, quite literally,
for she is just six feet in height. Four
or five years ago she was living with
her family in Denver, Col, something
of a society girl there and a leader i'll
amateur theatricals. Like many another
popular actress, she went from the am
ateur to the professional ranks, play
ing for a year with considerable sue
cess, then came to New York to look
for further engagements.
But she says, ''alaS for me and
my six feetl My rather unusual height
proved my bette noir. I would call upon
a manager. He would appear with q
gracious smile upon his face. Then, as

''At this time the idea occurred to
me of posing as an artists model. With
very little hope of success, I called on
Mr.. Gibson, and you can imagine how
delighted [ was when, after a few min

I was engaged. And thus it came

BEGINNING EARLY.
IFron the Detroit Free Press. J

IFrom the Detroit Free Press.l
AT a quarter of 4 the big front door
of the school was thrown open and sew
eral hundred boys and girls rushed out
into the street. In the middle of the line
hopped. skipped and jumped two young
sters-maybe years old, with sturdy
little legs, bright brown eyes and red
cheeks.
The pair drew away from the throng
at the sidewalk and waited until the
others had gone along.
BY and by they were alone.
Come onl" cried one of the little fell
bout it,
Then at a bound both were off.
The alley was vacated. Halfway
down it a pile of refuse, old oyster cans,
umbrellas and such discarded and dam
aged bits of property stared at them.
The smaller of the two youngsters ran
for the pile, and seizing old can,
flung it back at his companion.
1t hit him on the shoulder. wait a
minute" he yelled; gimme a minutes
time
Then, before the other knew what had
happened, the handle of an old umbrella
mad brought him a ringing clip on the
back of the head. That was the begin
ming, and for a space of twenty min
utes those two youngsters fought tooth
and nail, as though their lives depended
upon it,
At the end of that time one of them
was the owner of a torn shirtwaist,
cut CnGGh ana a Dlee01nR nose Inc
other limped and shifted. A long scratch
ran down his right cheek and met an
other at the corner of his mouth coming
up from the other direction.
Worn, weary and bedraggled, those
two youngsters sought their homes,
with tears and sniff1esss streaking their
faces and twitching their noses 60
Two mothers settled down upon them
and inquired the cause of the bedrag-
gled condition of their hopefuls
= And in their different homes each of
those little boys said: Teddy toP us
to-"
Teddy exclaimed the mothers won
deringly, <and who on earth is Teddy?''
Teddy Russyfelt,'' replied the little
boys. And still the wonder of the
mothers grew.
What has Teddy Roosevelt to do
with you?" they asked.
This afternoon tn dear teacher read
US his speech what he made out to Ann
Arbor, bout Ivin' tn strenuous life and
cultivatin' a spirit of pugnacity, an
men George went up tn alley t. carry
it OUT
And now two mothers are petitioning
the school board to remove the teacher
who has such a deep regard for Mr.
Roosevelt and his opinions.
