AN INGENIOUS svvINDLER.
The Daring Scheme That Was Worked
by German Doctor.

gy5gS Ss9f = S1eIfftaft Dpctofs
| Near a small village in one Of the
lake states lived a western millionaire
/ In seclusion with his little daughter
and a few servants. The child was af-.
ficted with a rare cerebro spinal com
plaint, q most unpleasant manifesta-
tion of which was a frequent hic-
cough, and eminent physicians, both
in America and Europe, had pronounc-
ed the case organic and incurable.
Later there came to live in the VII
| lage widow with a little girl affected
Fsimilar to the millionaire's daughter.
This child was a delicate, flower faced
creature, wistful from the isolation
that must have been her sad lot, and
the peculiar bark-lik hiccough which
she made at once attracted the mil
| lionaire's attention, and, being big
hearted If rather ignorant man, he
gave the mother employ ment about his
home and showered the afflicted child
with presents.
Perhaps four months after the wild
fow's advent an eccentric German doc
tor settled in the village, and, his serv-
ices being sought by the widow, hez
gave her child treatment, with the re-.
|sult that it was completely cured.
The millionaire immed ediately sought to
place his own daughter under the
Germans care. but the latter fatly re-
fused to take. the case. He was a
Socialist Of. a violent type and would
have nothing to do with man whose
wealth exceeded the sum that he had
fixed upon as the lawful limit of ma
terial possession.
Finally. however, after the father
had patiently borne the grossest In
suits the German agreed to give the
afflicted child treatment on condition
that the other would first deed over a
large tract Of land in Texas for So
cialist colony and pay him for his fee
a sum little short of $50 ,OOO This the
millionaire did, but as soon as the doc
tor had cashed the check he disappear
ed with the widow and her child, and
the wealthy man realized that, blinded
by paternal love, he had been made the
victim Of an ingenious swindle.
The flower faced girl of the widow
had been taught to simulate disease,
and the German was no doubt her
father. He was subsequently located
in Buenos Aires, but he injured man,
not wishing his daughters aff1iction

EXECUTING MAZEPPA.
Peter the Greats Odd Way of Punish.
@ ina a Deserter,

TeIer tne 1reat, Odd way OF PuniSh-
ing a Deserter.
Peter the Great, czar Of Russia, pun
ished traitor on notable occasion in
a way that the numerous victims Of
the present czar's wrath might well
wish were still in vogue.
Mazeppa, chieftain of the Cossacks,
had deserted to the king Of Sweden,
with whom Peter was at war. Ma
zeppa was at once tried by court mar
tial and found guilty Of high treason.
Sentence Of death was passed upon
him.
Mazeppa, however, was safely in the
camp Of the Swedish king, but this
fact was not permitted to stand in the
way of the carrying out of every part
Of the sentence. A wooden efigy Of
Mazeppa was made, and the punish
ments were inflicted upon the Cossack
chieftain's substitute.
The efigy was first dressed in Ma
Zeppa's uniform, and upon its breast
were pinned all Of the medals, ribbons
and other decorations that the real cul-
prit had worn. Es4
While the commanding general and
a squadron Of cavalry stood near an
officer advanced to the wooden man
and read the sentence. Then another
officer wrenched off the efhgy's patent
of knighthood and his other decora-
tions, tore them up and trampled upon
them. This done, he struck the wood
en- gentleman a powerful blow in the
pit of the stomach, knocking him over.
Next a hangman appeared. While the
soldiers shouted he threw moose over
the imitation fSazeppa's head and drag
ged the effigy to a nearby gallows,
where it was hanged by the neck
until it was Scrap Book. %.

candles on Christmas trees. Nearly
80 per cent Of the fires around the
