something for nothing who ls

arlce characteriZes the easy mark.
A man walking up lower Gervais
street Saturday night saw a
pocket book drop from the coat
Of pedestrian Immediately in
trout; the owner was allowed to
walk on III the even tenor of his
way. The dIshonest dIscoverer
reached for the purse when n
voice arresteii him. Hold on
there, don't open that purse, |
saw it when it fell, at the same
time you did; you will have to
divide or | will refer the whole
matter to Chief DAY.
Then the two men examined
the contents OF the purse by the
dim light of the street and found
what seemed to be in the half
light $40 bill. The man who
claimed to be a party to the find
said he didn't have any change
and asked what money the real
finder had He said So in change.
Then give me that as | am hard
up and you can keep the 500
note"
But this 500 bill whom taken to
the light was found TO be only a
81 bill, which In the crudest man
ner had been raised to the higher
denomination by pssting parts Of
u Confederate $40 bill over tho
corresponding points on a United
States issue Of a smaller amo mt

who got off with $S of good money
