crossed the Mex, and supported by the
rest of the Second brigade, under Hid

wagons of stores and supplies and a
few prisoners. The weather has been
intensely hot and the ground traversed
was exceedingly difficult. But the en-
ergy and dash of the troops have been
very pleasant to see. They have all
done splendidly. The work of the
irregular cavalry, the Queens, the
Scots Fusiliers and the Rifle brigade
was perhaps most noticeable, while the
excellent practice of the artillery and
naval guns and the steadiness of the
gunners, under, at times, very accurate
fire, was remarkable. The accurate

CHEAT VIOLIN
Used by Two Smooth Men to Beat u
Pnwnbroker.

FnWnDrOker.
The impression that pawnbroKers
cannot be worked has been exploded
by some cunning swindlers. Some
months ago there came to Philadelphia
two musicians who had been stranded
with a theatrical company in a neigh
boring New Jersey town. They needed
money badly, so tney put their wits to
work and succeeded in raising a nice
little stake. This is the way they
worked it: One of them, who may be
called John Bow, took his VOLTA
which was cheap instrument, worth
at the utmost $25-to a Market street
pawn shop and gave the proprietor a
long essay on the rarity of the instru-
ment. To prove that it was an old
Cremona, he played for the pawnbrok-
er, and finally succeeded in getting q
$15 loan on it for two weeks. Before
he left he urged the money lender to
be very careful Of the violin, as he
would not lose it for hundreds of dol
lars. The pawnbroker placed the fid-
die in his safe and instructed his as
sistants to be very careful Of it. A
week later a man entered the place
who said he was a collector of rare
violins, and wanted to know If there
were any in the shop that he might
fancy. The boss showed him num-
Der, but the fancier did not see any
to his liking Finally Bows violin was
brought out, and when the fancier
drew the bow over it he became enthy:-
siastic and said he would give $500 for
it. The broker replied that he was
sorry, but the violin could not be sold.
The stranger then became anxious and
left a So deposit, and asked that they
try to get the fiddle. A few days aft
erward the owner, Bow, came in, and
when the proprietor learned that he
wanted an additional $40 on the fiddle
he offered him 500 cash more for the
instrument. At first Bow would not
listen to it, but finally he took the
additional 500 and left with a sorrow
full face. The pawnbroker chuckled
over such an easy way of making over
$780, He waited anxiously for the
fancier, but as it is now over three
months since he said he would come
back. the broker thinks it was put up
Job. He had the violin valued last
week, and it was pronounced worth. al
