STRANGE TAL o.
TANGLED |. |: FINANCE A |: |:
Tells How f. Augustus Heinze6
Was Nipped by Somebody of
Forty Thousand Dollars.
YOUNG sFlNAN Ger IN JAIL.
Donald U. Perscl,, Charged With
Stealing Great sum, in Tombs in
Default of Bail.

New York, Aug, 1o.--Donald u. Persch
an ambitious young financier, is in the
Tombs tonightin default OF $4,000 ball.
and thereby hangs a tale OF the tangled
finances through which somebod;- In
Wall street nipred T !. Augustus. Heiaze
the one time copper king, for S40,0H.5
Persch is specifically charged With
the larceny Of $4,000, a profit obtain
ing by the sale of 5000 shares Of Ohio
Copper common and 4,600 shares of Ds-s
gjs-Daly Copper common, which an
agent for Heinze placed with the Wind
scr Trust company, as security for
loan of $4,000. In some manner, is
yet Unexplained the stock was not held
by the bank, but was turned over to a
clerk acting for Persch and at the lat
ter's orders thrown ON the curb mar
ket and sold for approximately 100000.
How Persch obtained the capital TO
carry through the deal and why the
stock was relinauished by the trust
After his arrest Persch intimatedg
that there were men higher up in
the transaction, but refused to say
more, upon the advice of counsel He
was aIraigned late this afternoon be-
fore magistrate and efforts made to-
have his ball reduced to $4,000 .;h;ch4
failed and he was committed to the
Tombs. .i5 r.
In opposing the reduction of bail,
Asst, Dist Atty, Mott said to the court:
There are other powerful people be-.
hind the man., your honor, and he
should have no difficulty furnishing
! $4,000. B
"on Aug. G this man had $4,000 in
his possession. Fifty Thousand dollars
bail IS not too much. i
Persch was arrested on statements
| made by John Sherwood. another note
| broker He said that at Perscf's re-
quest he procured the securities from
| the trust company. after having OBJ
tained the $4,000 for the purpose from
| T.. u. Fields & CO., dealers in curb
stocks. He thought the transaction en-
tirely legitimate and was ready to act
| for a percentage. He exhibited orders
from Persch to redeem the securities
| and to put sthem on the market. The
4 foregoing features seem plain enough,
lsbut behind them is the mystery of how
\ Persch knew where M. M. Joyce, repre-
senting Il. Augustus Heinze, placed the
securities.
| While there is nothing to indicate
| that the bank isscriminally responsible,
Mr.. Joyce says it was stipulated when
| the loan WAS made that the stock was
| to be pinned to his note and retained
Shortly after, however. the securities
] appeared on the curb and an investiga-
| ton began. The trust company says
| it was acting merely as an agent in
| placing the loans: and this agent now.
appears to have been Sherwood, repre-
seuting young Persch, who in turn init
mates that ne was acting for some one

THE WITCHES TREE.
Superstitions Regarding the fnfiu

Superstitions Regarding the influ-
cnce of the Elder.
! Country people speak of the elder
! tree as the witches tree, and
planted it near farm buildings and
diaries to keep off witches They also
say that the roots should never come
near well, still less grow into it,
or the water will be spoiled. Evelyn's
opinion was also unfavorable. He
says: 81 do by no means commend
, the scent of it, which is very noxious
to the air.
1--WE learn from Besius that d
! certain house in Spain seated among
many elder trees, diseased and kill
ed nearly all its inhabitants, which,
when at last they were grubbed up,
became a very healthy and whole
some place
/ Cattle scarcely touch the elder,
and the mole is driven away by the
scent Carriers often placed branches
on their horses heads to keep off
the flies. Nothing will grow well in
the company of the elder, and when
it has been removed and all its roots
carefully grubbed up it is some few
years before the ground becomes
perfectly sweet and good for any
thing.
The berries, besides feeding the
birds, make excellent country wine,
delicious with soda water in summer
or taken hot in winter. The wood is
particularly good for skewers, and
the curious jews red fungus grows
on elder stumps. A species of elder
in the Tyrol Is covered with beautt'
full scarlet berries, Mag

OPENING OF THE CHAUTAUQUA
Annual Encampment Starts OH I'm
der Mos, Favorable Circumstances.

With ideal weather and with an
attendance considerably in excess of
of the attendance on opening night
last year the tenth annual encamp-
ment of the Waxahachie Chautauqua
started off Tuesday night under the
most favorable circumstances. The
gates of the park were thrown open
to the public late in the afternoon
and two or three hours before the
hour for the exercises to begin the
people of the city began vending
their way to the park in order that
they might spend a short time enjoy
ing the balmy breeze and meet their
friends in social way.
The beautiful grove in the park is
well filled with tents which are oc-
cupied by campers from different
sections of the state, all bent on get
ting all the enjoyment possible out
of this annual outing.
As has been the case heretofore
the tent of the Young Mems Chau
tauqua club was thronged with
happy and light hearted crowd
where the time was occupied in play
ing forty-two, listening to enhancing
music and in friendly chats. The tent
is large and airy and is a delightful
place to spend an hour or two rest
ing after a tramp over the grounds.
The exercises at the auditorium
began at 1880 with delightful con-
cert by the Wise Orchestra. These
musicians were given a hearty greet
ing when they appeared on the stage
for the tenth successive season.
President Mcconnell, who has
been travelling on the Pacific coast,
failed to arrive for the opening
night, but Secretary j. NJ. Parker
presided in his place.
The scripture lesson was read by
Rev w. NJ Nevins pastor OF the
First Baptist church, who then offer
ed the invocation.
Secretary Parker then made the
usual announcements and introduc-
ed the speaker of the evening, DR..
r. w. Douthat, professor OF Latin in
the University of West Virginia. DR..
Douthat spoke Oh the subject OF
Gettysburg. Special seats were re-
served for the old soldiers and many
of them were present to hear the
lecture
The speaker defended Gen. Long
street from the charges that We're
made against him, charging that the
battle was lost because of him. DR..
Douthat, who served under Long
street during the four years of the
war said he was not as popular with
his troops as Jackson, nor was he a
strategist, but that he was loyal and
did his duty. At the battle of Gettys-
burg, said the speaker. Longstreet
was not needed on the first day OF
the three days contest. for on that
day the Confederates greatly out
numbered the Federals. Besides,
said the speaker, Gen. Longstreet
was detained on the first day for the
reason that an infantry column hao
gotten In ahead of him and impeded
his corps At Gettysburg. said Dr.
Douthat, Gen. Longstreet bore the
brunt of battle. and did what few
corps generals did--placed himself
in front Of battle, waved his hat and
led the fight on the second DAY
when the fiercest fighting OF the en-
tire day was done; which. as inc
