who drink from it, and need an additional

anything, cabbage included, with no fear
of evil consequences.

train out each Sunday evening after dim

The Gold Brick swindIe.

The gold brick swindle." said a
business man quoted in the New Or
leans Times-Dcmocrat. IS one OF the
most plausible propositions ever ad-
vanccd ana has landed some OF the
c!evCrCSt business men in the country.
\ number of years ago it used TO Ice Il
common thing for banks in the west 20
buy gold bTicks-I mean real ones
and frequently there We're the best OF
reasons for keeping the transaction
quiet.
1t often happened that the owner Of
some partly developed mine would
make an unexpected strike and wish
10 buy the adjacent property. Natu-
rally he would want TO hold back the
news of his discovery until he secured
the land and If he had any bullion TO
dispose of would make the sale as
quietly as possible. The banks be
came accustomed to deals Of that kind
and were consequently pretty easy
prey for the gold brick swindler who
turned UP with 4 precisely similar sto-
~.

say that fully onc-third OF all the bank
