City Rubes
by Frederic J. Haskin

New York City, Jan. l8.-Tho Idea,
usually 80 popular with city people,
that all rubes live in the country,
seems TO lack foroe in New York this
reason Too many people are being
cleverly separated from their small
change For in the wake OF the crime
wave has come an epidemic OF petty
graft, to which the shrewd. sophistt-
Gated New Yorker has succumbed rs
easily as he did to last years hu.
showing himself TO be quite as gullibla
as his rural relatives.
Hardened shop-keepers of long city
training have been buying fake furs
and naste Jewels with n reckless good
nature that would astonish even a
suburb. and thousands of canny Broad
way residents have been contributing
90 fake causes with n sentimental
abandon rarely exhibited by the citi-
yens of small towns. In spite of all the
talk about money being tight. beggars
and fraud specialists are having a nicer
time in New York this year than they
have ever had before. 4.
Here is the sort of thing which is
constantly happening to enliven the at
Tnosphere along Broadway and Fifth
avenue.
Tho other night. friend OF the re-
