THE New York Stock Exchange has
taken action to root out all ''get rich
quick and other kindred swindling
concerns. They expect to make
vigorous campaign, and will seek the
enaction of laws affecting the in
corporation of companies; the prose
cution of all get rich quick concerns:
the ferreting out of bogus mercantile
agencies that supply references for
these companies: and the exposure
and prosecution OF Wall street news
papers, which, for financial consid-
Grafton, supply such concerns with
favorable reports, and accept their
advertisements. 1t will now be in
order for Cincinnati, St. Louis, Chi
cago, and other large cities to take
similar action. Publication of the
names ofthe victims who patronize
the swindles. would also do much to
break ND the business. 1t ought to
be authorized by law.

Little Boy Hurt.

The Detrick family, who live on
west Sandusky Ave. in the former
Herzberg property, had their day of
pleasure badly spoiled yesterday.
The family had arranged to spend
the day in the country. Mr.. DERRICK
had gone in a wagon without a bed,
his two children were in buggy, and
the mother was to come with some
one in another conveyance. Before
the mother had left home her ten
year-old boy. Forest, was brought
home with a bleeding head. He had
tried to climb on his fathers wagon
and had fallen under the wheels.
Several stitches were necessary, but
the injuries were not serious.

boy begged his mother till she let
him go, and he took ride above the

American boy came down a number
of the French boys were willing to
get in, and two of them were taken
for ride. 1t would be hard thing
to find a crowd of Americans where
you could not get volunteer to take

VISITED
His Home OF Seventy Years Ago.
While on the Excursion.

While on the excursion to Dayton.
Mr.. George Rife took it
into his head to hunt up his old home,
about six miles west of Dayton. He
left there with his fathers family in
1884, he being then seven years of
of age, but he thought he recollected
fairly we'll the old stone house and
surroundings that constituted their
home. He expected to go out on the
electric line, but found an old farmer
who took him out in his buggy. He
struck three stone houses before he
found the right one. But the third
time was the charm He couldn't
be mistaken, and knocking at the
door, he told the lady of the house
his mission. She gave him welcome
and invited him in. He asked for the
old stone kitchen apart from the
house, and was told it had been burn
ed out and torn down. He was given
a cup, and went down the stone steps
to the spring, and got a cool drink,
where he had often slaked his boyish
thirst, but looked for the the old or
chard in vain. 1t had gone the way
of all the earth excepting one old peal
tree. Asking permission to go uI
stairs, where he had been tucked by
his mothers hands in his little bed
he was given the freedom of thu
house and told to go wherever h
wanted to. He found the stairs ant
the landing just as he remembers
them, and the big square joists witt
their planed sides overhead, an,
other things that we're fixed in hi
memory.
1t brought many interesting an
sad memories back through the visit
of nearly 20 long years, and the visi
was an interesting event of his life
But he could find no one who kne'
or had ever heard of his fathers fam
lily or of the family who bought thei
farm. All memory of them had fade
out. with those who had passed AVA
, wears ago.

ONE of the developments of the
Postoffice investigation is said to be,
that the railroads of the country
have been tricking Uncle Sam out of
thousands of dollars. Twice year
all mail matter is weighed and the
railroads are paid for carrying all
mails, for the coming six months
according to the last weigh
ing. 1t is said the railroads would
learn when these times of weighing
were to occur and would stuff the
mails for a short time before, with
cheap printing matter, and that
some Congressman would help them
by loading the mails with public doc
uments. Thus Uncle Sam would be
tricked out of thousands of dollars.
