John. He now became dazed with of his boyhood on foot and made his way to Philadelphia, where he chanced to meet his step-father who was a member of a gang of counterfeiters. John was easily persuaded and he suf- fered himself to be led along step by step until he was deep in the mire.
 Our Civil war had brought a great change in the finances of the country Wild cat banks had gone out of ex- istence and a new kind of money was in use. There was a great deal of counterfeiting going on and John HartZ was one of the number engaged in it. Like the most of the men of cumulating wealth.
 A counterfeit beer stamp made its appearance in Philadelphia and I found it necessary to visit that city The night was dark and stormy and 1t was about the portentous hour of ZOO a m. when ghosts are said to stalk abroad in ghastly white array, tudl iOuT ueleCJiNeS lelI tnelT comfort able quarters in the hotel with the ex- pectation of making an important arrest. The man they sought was in- visible during the day time and a diff ficult man to encounter at night He had frequently been heard of but had seldom been seen by the government detectives. When the officers reached the appointed place they scattered and took up their positions where they would attract as little attention as possible. Their mysterious mission had been fully explained deal was expected 10 be pulled off One of the detectives was round of person. He had, through one of the c0unterfeiting gang, been introduced as a beer deal CT who said he was willing to take his chances with bogus stamps, and he had bargained with one of the coun- terfeiters for five thousand counter felt lager beer stamps, and was to receive them at a certain hour at a designated place.
 When the man put in an appear ance to make the delivery he was to be arrested. This individual, owing to the darkness Of the night, was unable to see the detectives stationed about, and he walked with his carpet bag in

 The tailor glanced at the excited citizen. and went pushing the goose.
 After minute the new arrival got his breath, but lost his temper. "I say there was $105 in the left trou- sers pocket" he repeated. shaking his fist.
 ''Vell, didt I sedt dere vasn't?" the little tailor asked. "Dere iss de pants Mebby he iss dere yedt.' pointing to a pair of trousers on a nail.

 On given signal the detectives hurriedly closed in. The counterfeit- CT did not readily submit and the off cers soon found they had tackled rough customer For some minutes the scufling and twisting was furious and he was not fairly subdued until a pair of glistening handcuffs was slipped upon his wrists. The cold steel took the fight out of him and he was at once escorted to the Bingham house

 The squealer in cases of this kind is usually the most powerful adjunct to the detective art While these off. cers have little respect for him they are delighted to avail themselves of his services. I was well acquainted with the most prominent feature in the prisoners past career. He laid claim 10 the possession of a principle to which he had steadfastly adhered He had been arrested several times for passing counterfeit money and had on all occasions persistently refused to sQueal on his confederates.

 After everything had cooled down, Mr. Weisgarber. in a burst of gener- osity. was good enough 10 loan the drever one or two hundred dollars to pay his way until he could reach Strasburgh, little town at the foot of the Three Brother mountains. The droyer was silenced but not altogether convinced His money was all right the day before, but he wasn't quite sure it was of the right stamp when he handed it over to the young man for safe keeping. Here was an exem- plification of the little difference be tween the truth and lie we'll stuck to. Time rolled on and John Harz' career in crime became more and more firmly fixed.
 One day the sheriff came with a warrant for the Flying Dutchman, which meant Herman Weisgarber.
 "Gott en Himmell. Vot ish dish?" he exclaimed.
 A long explanation ensued and the sheriff was greatly puzzled regarding his duty He was convinced that the accused man was innocent. and he thought it might be a safe thing to leave him at his home and go back 10 the county seat and report before ma king the arrest When he reached there he was told to return at once and bring his man. When he get back to the Black Bear Inn Mir Weisgarber was out He had saddled up and rode away and might not return for several days, perhaps never. But the good natured sheriff didn't see it that way He would come back again. or he might present himself voluntarily at the sheriffs office

One day a drover came along Jne pike with a long string of oxen and stopped at the Black Bear Inn, and night. The drover was new in that part of the country, and for safety he handed his pocket book, containing several hundred dollars, to John Hartz for safe keeping, in the presence of Weisgafber. Shortly afterwards when the drover was out attending to his cattle, Weisgarber suggested the idea to John of changing the good money in the pocket book for an equal amount of counterfeit that he had on hand. John was easily persuaded. He thought his step-father knew best. In the morning the drover received his pocket book and proceeded to count it's contents. He at once saw that the bills were of a different kind than those he had been carrying. He pulled a counterfeit detector from his pocket and examined them. Having satisfied himself that they were bad. he charged John with having substi- tuted them. The accused mans face turned red and he began to stammer
 but his stepfather who was standing by, came at once to the front and com. meneed to talk in German to John
 Turning to the drover he protested in badly broken English that the young man was honest and hadn't even opened the pocket book. Between the two the drover got tongue flashing for his accusation that so completely upset him that he was none too sure that he ever had any money. He was now in bad fix; long ways from

whose pranks have claimed so much
space in the newspapers OF late. He
is charged with numerous torgeries,
and we presume that it is on one OF
these charges that he is to be brought

presume it has been the purpose of
the officers to prevent his whereabouts
becoming public. The probabilities
are that within few days further de-
