.SWENDLERS GET
old MANS "PILE"
CLAIMED TO BE AGENTS OF
"cARNEcIE THRIFT FUND"
AND WORKED AGED MAN.

New York, July S.-Detectives today
are hunting for two men, who, passing
las trustees of the Carnegie thrift
fund" yesterday swindled an aged
Brooklyn man out of $4,000, his life's
savings. He was Nicholas Jacobs, a
retired cigar manufacturer, aged 50
years.
One of the swindlers who was
represented as having won a $4,000
prize in the thrift lottery conducted
by the fund was filed with sympathy
for Jacobs. because both Jacobs and he
were martyrs of rheumatism and he
wanted to divide the prize with him.
The other swindler protested, how
ever, that by the rules of the thrift
fund only persons who were thrifty
were entitled to share it. Jacobs, in
order to show that he had been thrifty,
drew from the bank his savings and
placed it in box together with the
whole $4,000 which his rheumatic
friend had won in the lottery, the
box remaining in Jacobs custody.
Later he became suspicious and took
the box to the police and it was found
to contain worthless paper. IA

RAINS POUR DOWN.

Paris, July s.-The continuous cold
and wet weather Is beginning to cause
serious alarm. There has been daily
rain for six weeks and the precipita-

the average annual rainfall. A re-

streams are full and some are out of
their banks. The grape crop is suf-
fering heavily and the hay crop is al

Meteorologists attribute the rainfall
to the continuous hot westerly winds
from America, which absorb moisture
in crossing the gulf stream that is
precipitated as soon as it comes in
contact with the cold land Of the con-
tinent.
