Bob BROMLEY paused and looked
down into the faces of the GREATNESS
gamblers with contempt that was
superb. He went on:
Men of Wall street, it is writ in the
books OF the ancients that every evil
contains within itself cure or de.
stroyer. l do not pretend that what ]
am revealing to you Is to you cure
for this hideous evil, but do say that
what I am giving you is destroyer
for it, and that while it will be to the
world cure, it may leave you in
more fiery hell than the one of which
you now feel the flames. l do not care
If it does. When l am through, any
member of the New York stock ex.
change who feels the iron in his soul
can get instant revenge and unlimited
wealth. You who are turning over in
your minds the consideration that your

render my discovery imperative, are
dealing with shadow. There is no

working. There are loco seats in the
New York stock exchange. They are

100000 in all. Their vs,ue is due to
the fact that this exchange deals in
between one and three million shares

prevent the operation of my invention,
transactions would bec;;uso of such
attempt drop to five or ten thousand
shares per day, or to such transactions
as represented stock that will be actu-
ally delivered and actually paid for.
To make my invention useless it must
be- made impossible to buy or sell the
same share of stock more than once
atone session, and short selling, which

the modern stock-gambl.ng structure,

curse in the world, stock-gambling."
A sullen growl rose from the gam
blers. Robert BROMLEY glared down
his defiance.
Let me show you the impossibiity
OF preventing in the future anyone's
doing what l have done to you SO
many times during the past five years.
All the capital required to work my
invention is nerve and desperation, or

safely through what looked dozen

beautiful gray-clad figure of five years

to an immortal soul-they were closed

LOS INGENIOUS FRAUD.

. . . .
The clerk of Clark county, in Wis
consin, has been imposed upon by an
ingenious bad Indian living near Chip
pewa Falls. The state pays 500 a
pair for wolf ears. The Indian de-

of wolf ears, for which the county
clerk gave him an order for 500.
But that Indian is to be arrested.
The clerk discovered a striking re-
semblance In the size and color of
the ears and examination revealed
that they were all made out of a
single wolfskkin ingeniously sewed
together, with piece of cardboard

the counterfeit ears.
