NEW KIND OF SWINDLE.
Columbia Police Warns Merchants
Against This Fellow.

The State says that Chief of Po-
lice Carthcart desires to warn the
merchants of this State against q
crook whose operations are entirely
new in this section. The man sue
cessfully worked his game the other
day and the police authorities ex-
pect him to attempt it again on some
unsuspecting merchant. His identity
is so far an unknown quantity and
the police will haYe' to depend upon
the merchants to help effect his cap
ture.
The modus operandi of this my
sterious knight of the swindler's art
is as follows: He will call merchant
over the phone and give an order
for certain articles of merchandise
directing that they be sent to n GER
tain number This Is accompanied
by a request that the bill be sent
along with the goods: also the nee
essary change for a five or ten dol
lar bill. For instance. he will order
50 worth of merchandise and ask
that SO be sent along as change, ex-
planning that he has nothing less
than five dollar bill. The goods
and the required change are sent
out and the mysterious stranger Is
on hand at the number indicated. He
gets the goods and the change. hands
note to the messenger. supposedly
containing the So bill. and the mes
senger goes back to the store to
find that he has been worked to the
tune of So.

STORM PLAYS HAVOC.
Wind Reaches Velocity Of Sixty Miles
at Cape Henry.

The wind reached minimum We
locity at Cape Henry in Thursday
nights coast storm of sixty miles an
hour. 1t blew from the northwest
and drove seaward rather than to-
ward shore any vessels that may have
been caught in its teeth, but so far
no wrecks have been reported
The wind at it's hurricane velocity
carried before it everything movable
on shore and It is feared that much
havoc was wrought at sea. The gov
ernment's seacoast teleg, ,aph wires
from Cape Henry southwark are t
working and no word could be had
from the Cape Hatteras section. No
word could be had from the Boston
yacht Ma6leon, bound to Jacksonville
and stranded in Roanoke sound, n.
C.
Several of the big battleships
Some of the big battleships head
ern ports doubtless had severe ex-
periences if caught within the radius
of the gale.
The severity of the gale has caused
some anxiety to be felt for the safety
of the six little vessels of the tor
pedo flotilla bound for San Juan en-
route to the Pacific coast, but with,
three days start the little vessels
have probably gotten far enough
away to escape the storm.
