DARING SWINDLER ARRESTED
Man Who is Alleged to Have Stolen Half
Million Dollars.
PRETENDED HEIR TO LARGE ESTATE
omcers Capture Him WhiI He IL
in the Act of Writing n Black
mailing Letter to a
Farmer.

NEW YORK, July 1S-By the arrest of
George G. Corey. in Paterson, Putnam
county. N. Y. the postal authorities believe
that they have closed the career Of an al
legged daring swindler. whose operations are
alleged to have extended from this country
to England and France. and who has stolen
not less than $500. 900.
Corey was arrested by Postofnce Inspec-
tor NJ. H, Boyle on a warrant issued by
United States Commissioner Shields. charg-
ing him with using the mails for fraudulent
purposes.
1t is the belief Of the postal authorities
that the prisoner is Identical with Charles
Corey, whose success in persuadlng the
members of the Corey family all over the
country to advance him $4,000 on the
p~retense that he could place them In pos
session Of an estate In England worth
$40, 000, 900 recently came to notice.
In Paterson Corey is said to have an
nounced he was a great grandson OF John
Drake and that. as his heir, he was the
true owner OF large tracts OF land in Put
ram and Westchester counties, the deeds
for which he is alleged to have pretended
to possess. BY threats that he would en-
force his claims unless bought on, he Is
said to have obtained considerable sums OF
money from the occupants of farms in that
region.
He is alleged to have been writing a
letter to a farmer when the arrest was
made. Inspector Boyle says he found a
satchel filled with copies OF deeds to the
Drake estate in this country and the Corey
estate In England.
Corey Insisted after his arrest that he
was not q swindler. but that the estates
actually existed and they were worth not
less than $40, 900. 900. He was locked up In
Ludlow street Jail.

why the Joke Fell Flat.

A big, good natured farmer was
awaiting the suburban train, accom-
panied by handsome Gordon setter.
Two sons of Britain stood near him.
The dog strayed away from his owner.
who was reading newspaper.
''Hey" called the farmer Come
here, Locksmith." and the dog imme-
diately ran to his feet.
One of the Englishmen approached
the farmer.
"May I ask" he said. what you
called that dog?"
''Locksmith' said the farmer.
"And why, pray?''
Because every time l kick him he
makes bolt for the door,"
There was general laugh, in which
the Englishman joined.
When he returned to his companion,
he remarked:
"Most extraordinary name that man
over there calls his dog"
"What" asked his friend
"Locksmith. replied the first Briton.
/ "And why such name?"
Because, he says, every time he
kicks i'm be bolts for the door."-St.

HI. one naily Meal.

/ DR.. George Fordyce, the celebrated
Anatomist and lecturer on chemistry,
used Ito eat one meal day and one
meal only, but 1t was mighty one,
washed down with liberal drafts Of
wine and beer. At 4 O'clock every day
he used to enter a certain chophouse
and take his seat at table always re-
served for him. A silver tankard con-
tanning a quart Of strong ale, full
bottle of port and quarter of a pint Of
brandy were placed before him imme-
diately.
Z, The moment the waiter announced
the doctors arrival the cook put a
pound and q half of rump steak on the
fire, and to while away the time until
the steak should be properly broiled
the waiter brought the doctor some
tempting morsel like broiled chicken
or plate of fish. When he had eaten
this, DR.. Fordyce drank half of his
brandy and then began on his steak.
While eating the steak he drank the
tankard Of ale and after that the rest
Of the brandy. The waiter then un-
corked the bottle Of port. and the doc
tor proceeded slowly to enjoy it until it
was all gone. He spent an hour and a
half daily at his one meal and after it
returned home to give his lectures on
chemistry. which are still quoted as
classics of that science. He ate nothing
else until the next day. when he re-
turned at the same hour to the same
chophouse for the same sort of meal.
DR.. Fordyce lived to be sixty-six years
old and kept up his one meal custom to
the last.

The Weight of Ice.

The iceman and the goldman are
often suspected of giving short weights
maybe oftener suspected than guilty;
maybe oftener guilty than suspected.
The means Of testing the weight of
from ten to thirty pounds of ice are
not always at hand in the house, but a
close estimate of the weight can be
reached by multiplying together the
length, breadth and thickness of the
block in inches and dividing the prod
uct by thirty. This will give very
closely the weight in pounds. Thus, If
block of Ice is 10 by 10 by 9, the prod
uct is 900, and this divided by thirty
gives thirty pounds as the correct
weight. A block 10 by 10 by 6 weighs
twenty pounds. This simple method
can be easily applied, and it may serve
to remove unjust suspicion or to detect
short weights.

and white In winter. The weasel is
especially curious. 1t retains it's brown
coat until the first snow appears and
then whitens in q few hours.
