CONFIDENCE GAME
ON A MINISTER.
The Reverend Frederick Brunn of
Edwardsville Loses S13 to
Clever Swindler.

Although feeling a natural aversion to
letting the fact become public that he
had been the victim of a confidence game,
the Reverend Frederick Brunn, pastor of
the German Lutheran churches of Alton
and Edwardsville, decided after delibera-
ton that such knowledge might be the
means of saving money for others. and so
yesterday he made his feelings subservi-
ent to his sense of duty.
The incident occurred last Thursday. A
stranger called at the minister's home in
Edwarzisville. stating that he had recently
arrived from Butler. Pa, and purchased
the Thomas Morrison farm.
The minister knew the farm had just
been sold. but did not know to whom.
The visitor, who said his name was Van
derhof, said that he was a member of the
church. and as his daughter and sister
in-law were to he married Sunday they
wished the Reverend Brunn to perform
the ceremony.
Details of the double wedding were sat
isfactorily arranged and the man arose to
take his departure. AT the door he re-
marked incidentally that he had purchased
some cattle to stock the farm, and remem-
bered that he was to settle the account
that morning and was SI3 short. He
wondered IL the minister could advance
the trifiing sum, and the latter handed
it to his visitor, who has not been seen
since.
The tale was gotten of so well that
the minister, after reflection. decided that
IL would be worked in other places, and
TO prevent this made public the fact that
he had been bilked.

on Meat Market.

George Guenther. Alderman from the
Seventh Ward. East st. Louis, and the
proprietor of a grocery and meat market.

pleaded guilty to both charges. was fined
s. and costs in each case and agreed to
take out licenses Immediately.
Licenses We're issued to him a few mo-
ments later by City Clerk Thomas Will
Jams and were dated from May Of this
year. the date he took the oath Of office
as an Alderman. The meat license is
500 a year and the grocers or vendor S
license is SIS year.
Williams. he has been trying to induce
Alderman Guentner to pay mis- license ever
since he was elected Alderman. Two
weeks ago at meeting of the City Coun-
Gill; the matter was brought up in the
meeting by another Councilman, who be-
rated Guenther for failing to pay his II
cense.

attention Of Mayor Cook, who called
Guenther into his office and told him he
would have to pay his license for the en-
ire time that he mad done business while
he was in the City Council, and that he
desired that the matter be settled immedi-
ately. Mr.. Guenther stated that he would
attend to it.
License inspector William Kane, in go
ing through the records In City Clerk Will
iams office. discovered that the records
