INDIAN IN A BUNCO GAME.
r n has Learned to Swindle by
Brick*
Fro* the yew York World
rn.coLN, N*B., April 14. Edwards,
Zi estate agent, who came here from
vT„ o about three months ago, and es
to wealth at from $60,000 to $75,-
jo* is well along in years and presumably
. J pnoueh experience with the world
mulcted out of $8,500 on the gold
* f "Ito but nevertheless his fortune
by that amount within the
“ and for the equivalent he possts
* ... bogus gold bricks.
tolyTu%v morning Mr Edwards was
fUtad bva roughly-dressed man just aa
from the Capitol Hotel, on
Lv“th stilet, where he had taken break-
L The stranger asked if he knew a man
S,ed JamteEdwards, saying that Msown
Se was Frank Warner. Mr. Edwards
Jerked that his name was Edwards but
not Jim, and he was unacquainted
°?h knv one of the name of Janies Klwards.
i th S£wer said that Jim Edwards was
SatecLtofSn, and that he had searched
dtv for him for two days, but
osont success. He grew very comminu
te about himselfT and volunteered
e information that he was a miner, and
at the relative he was searching for owned
one-fourth interest in a mine in Arizona
erritorv which had lately been yielding
gze quantities of gold fhe attire of the
rancer did not belie the truth of his_ state
let?and his rough jeans, dirty old cap
y„Hdv countenance were unmistakable
nis of ids vocation. Mr. Edwards
Rested in the story of his new found
Muaiutance and the latter told how the
ine which he considered the most produc
ve and richest in the Territory, came to be
'rw’dav an Indian, while hunting, shot
„ antelope on the side of a hill. No sooner
id the crack of the savage’s rifle died away
ban he saw the antelope bound forward
nd then disappear as if he had been en
ulfed by the earth. The Indian was
mazed, and proceeding at once to the spot
ound that his game had fallen into a deep
ole w hich looked like a mine abandoned
mzago The Indian let himself down in
lie mine, and to his great delight saw many
lieces of gold glittering in the sunlight that
roke through a crevice in the rock. He
arried the antelope to the camp of his
lbe returned and began digging for the
retious metal. Before he ceased seventy
ounds of gold rewarded his labors.
Edwards became deeply interested in the
tory of his chance acquaintance. Warner
lid'that the Indian was now concealed near
orth Platte, Neb., with his precious prop
rtv. He possessed the Indian’s natural
aired of white men, but had been induced
o come this far East only by much persun
ion. Warner said that the Indian had been
nprisoned, robbed and often ambushed by
be whites, and it was not more than nat
ral that he should have a loathing of the
rkole race. The story concluded! with a
roposal that they take a trip to North
'latte and see the gold.
Tuesday afternoon they left for North
’latte, arriving there shortly after midnight,
'hey left the train at the depot and walked
own the track about a half mile to a large
emfield.
“Keep quiet.” said Warner, “we will come
o see the Indian pretty soon.”
AVarner gave a low, shrill whistle and a
ew moments later the form of a man
merged from the edge of the cornfield,
ibout 200 yards from them, and walked up
he track. By the dim moonlight the real
state agent could distinguish an Indian
Iressed in the usual costume. Huge feathers
tuck out above his head, war-paint covered
lis face and a tomahawk hung loosely by
lis side. While they were examining the
)ricks the Indian kept up a continuous yell,
yhich was explained as showing a fear that
Edwards would run away with the
[old. The bricks were bored in sev
iral places, and Edwards scratched his
mme upon them and they were returned to
he savage, who signalized their safe return
>y an extra loud war-whoop. The alleged
tuner and real estate agent returned to
tincoln yesterday afternoon, and soon after
their arrival the borings were taken to a
eweler, who pronounced it genuine gold,
-ast night Edwards returned to North
Platte with the money for the bricks. The
Indian, the miner said, was able to distin
guish a $lO9 bill and count as high as ten,
consequently it would be advisable to put
the money in packages of SI,OOO each. Ed
wards secured eighty-five SIOO bills and de
parted for North Platte with the miner.
They found the Indian in the same place,
and the $8,500 was paid over to the Indian
ojid Edwards was given the two gold bricks.
He placed one in a satchel and the other
was wrapped in a cloth and carried under
his arm. Warner accompanied him to the
depot. He then excused himself on a slight
pretext and said that he would return to the
depot in time to take the train for Lincoln.
He tailed to turn up. Edwards returned
alone. The first place he visited was a well
known bank, and he asked the cashier to
examine his purchases. He was told that
“ip bricks were bogus, and that he had been
kindled. Then it dawned upon the real
tat agent that he had been made the vic
weo ol( * Kokl-briok swindle, and that
W n'. S T ) ' vas represented by two worth
's bricks, in which there was not one
w>t s worth of gold.

the Esmeralda. She has a speed of 18 knots,
two turret cannon of 25 tons each, carrying
projectiles of 450 pounds, capable of piercing
20 inches of iron. Besides these big guns she
carries 6 4-ton breech-loading guns as broad
sides and an assortment of Hotchkiss, Gard
ner, and Gatling rapid-firing magazine guns.
Her engines are 6,000 horse power. All her
guus and machinery work by hydraulic
>ower. Then comes the iron-clad Blanco
Sncalada, named after a redoubtable
Admiral in our service, with a speed of 15
knobs and a battery of 6 cannon of 4 tons
each. This vessel is now in England being
fitted out with the Whitehead torpedo, and
it is the intention of the naval authorities to
send every one of our fleet to England for
this purpose. The third of our vessels is the
iron-clad Almirante Cochrane, named after
another of our naval heroes. She has a speed
of 12 knots, and has 6 cannon of 300 pounds.
Then come 6 tho monitor Huascar, taken
from the Peruvians, 12 knots, two turret
cannon and quick-shooting cannon. Then
the corvet Chachaluco, built in England, II
knots, 3 cannon of 115 pounds, two 70-uouud
ers; all of these guns are on deck. Next is
the Gen. O’Higgms, which was taken from
the Spanish in the war of independence: 11
knots, 3 cannon of 115 pounds, and two 70-
pounders, all on deck. The corvet Altao, 10
knots, one cannon of 70 pounds, and two of
40 pounds, all on deck. She is used as a cadet
training-snip. Then the Magellanes, 11
knots, 4 40-pounders; used iu the hydro
graphic service. Then there is the cruiser
Anganus, 15 knots, one turret cannon of 180
pounds. Then our vessel, the Pilcomayo 10
knots, one cannon of 70 and four smaller
ones; we used her as a boys’ training-ship.
Then we finish the list with the transjxirte
Amazonas, Tolten, Toro, Lautau, Valdivia
and Chili fifteen torpedo boats and four
receiving ships.
The finest building in Valparaiso is dedicat
ed to the use of a naval school, and in Fiume,
Italy, there are six officers yearly who are
being trained in the torpedo service, and I
will conclude by saying that so much does
Chili think of her naval heroes that the finest
monument in the republic is dedicated to the
memory of Arturo Prat, who commanded
the Esmeralda, which sank iu her fight with
the Huascar.”
PATRONYMICS OF MANY KINDS.
Some Queer English and German
Names and Their Supposed Origin.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
“The devil has got stuck,” was the sur
prising statement of a German grocer the
other day.
“GoVstuok ? Well, that is news,” said the
reporter who overheard the remark. “How
dia that happen?”
“Oh, you misunderstand! I said he has
got Stock—not stuck. He has been after him
for some time.”
“You mean that Mr. Stock is dead?”
asked the reporter.
The German was so amused that he was
unable to reply for a minute or two, being
nearly choked with laughter.
“I mean that my neighbor, Teufel, the
butcher, has been trying for some time to
hire a man named Stock, with whom I am
acquainted, and has at last succeeded in en
gaging him. Now, do you catch on?”
“Well, of all queer names, Teufel is the
queerest,” said the reporter.
“It is a respectable German surname and
no stranger than many other family names
would appear if converted into English,”
said the grocer. “For instance, I know a
man named Zehfuss —toenail. Then we
have Dreifuss, which means three feet;
Langbein, long legs; Oehsenhirt, ox herd;
Kleinhans, little Jack; Wolfschlager, wolf
killer; Hundsblut, dog’s blood; Pfankueh,
gancake; Gulenfinger, crooked finger;
ehwarzkopf, veal; Knobeloch, garlic;
Kraut, cabbage, and scores of others that I
could name.
“For long names take these: Reimeu
schneider. Blankeubuhler. Schluesselbrun
ner, Schneiderloehner, Songenecker and
Guckenheimer. Some of the Pennsylvania
Dutch names, which have been partly trans
formed into English, are the worst. Up in
Armstrong county there are several
families by the name of Sehreckengeist,
which sigiiifics in German a ghost or spec
tre of terrible appearance. One would
think the name could be made no worse, but
some of the people have succeded in trans
forming it into Shrieking-ghost. Milliron,
Morningstar, Redheffer and Barndollar are
other Gel-man names which have been part-
ly translated.”
“I don’t know the origin of surnames,”
said a literary friend in conversation with
the reporter. “It is certainly very an
cient, and a mark distinguishing civilized
people from savages. The Romans had
aouole, treble or even quadruple names, as
for example: Caius Julius Cassar, Tar
quinius Superbus and Quintus Fabius
Maximus. Frequently an honorary name
was added to commemorate some warlike
achievement; Fabius was called Cunctator,
and Scipio Afrieanus.
“Anglo-Saxons appear to have first given
surnames indicating some moral or mental
attributes, as, for instanoe. Wise, Good,
Swift, Jolly, Merry, Meek, Gay, Goodman,
Makepeace, etc. Then we have names indi
cating real or fancied resemblance to some
animal, such as Bear, Lion, Wolf, Hogg,
Hart, and Hare. From physical character
istics or peculiarities must have originated
such name* as Long, Short, Black, Brown,
White, Whitehead, Crooks hank, Strong,
Armstrong, Longfellow and Greathead. A
nickname kept in a family for a generation
or two becomes a patronymic. Hence such
names as Hopper, Jumper, Springer, Dad
dysrnan. Poor mid Rich.
“The Me and O of the Irish and the Mac
of the Scotch indicate descent. There is
another way in which the same thing is
shown: Adam’s son becomes Adamson,
David’s sou Davidson, Thompson, Wilson,
Williamson, Donaldson, Anderson and many
other names are similarly derived. Locali
ties or places of residence originally gave
rise to such names as Hill, Dale, Wood,
Green, Greenwood, Heath, Rivers, Waters
and Parks. Such names as Welsli, French,
Irish, Ireland, English and Scott may per
haps be traced back to the nationality of
some remote ancestor.
“The names which were derived from oc
cupation are probably more numerous than
any other class. We all know how wide
spread the Smith family is. In the same
category belong the Clarks (clerks original
ly). Cooks, Coopers. Bakers, Barbers, Tay
lors, Shoemakers, Tanners, Farmers and
others. The months or days in which peo
ple were born originated such names as
May, June, January, March, Friday and
Monday.
“The inns of old England are probably
responsible for many names. For rnsta c .
John of the Rose became John B s ;
Thomas of the Bell, Tom Bell; Richard of
the Hark, Richard Hawk; Henry of the
‘greathouse’ become Henry Greathouse, and
so on, until then 1 is scarcely a bird, animal
or other device that ever figured on a sign
board that is not perpetuated us a family
name.
“There are, perhaps, as many queer
names among the English as among uny
people on earth. Dickens’ stories alsmnd in
them, yet very few of his names were man
ufactured. Much names as Slaughter, Start
up. Go tubed, Dead man. Churchyard, l>og
lierry and Fudge are found iu English direc
tories.”
Sometimes the very queerest of names get
coupled together as the title of a firm. Here
are 11 few specimen*: Hixik A Ketch, Cobb
& Hay, Peacock A Sparrow, Fox A Crane,
Singer A Hooter, Drake A Gander, Fisher
A Fowler, < iouJln A Pond, Wild A Free.

“DE KING” VOODOOI3T.
A Remarkable Colored Humbug Look
ed Up at the Armory.
From the Chicago Tribune.
“Doc” Forsythe, the professional “Vooiloo
ist,” who is under arrest at the armory,
charged with obtaining money by false
pretenses, was arraigned for a hearing yes
terday, but Officers Smith and Green net
being ready with witnesses the case wi.s
continued to the 19tli in bonds of 8000. “Doc ’
whs returned to his cell smiling and liappy,
for he does not tliink it possible that a wit
ness can be got who will swear against him.
The eyes of the voodooist are the secret of
his success among his race in this city.
While not large they are bright almost to
brilliancy anil jet black. He always looks
intently at the person addressed, and his
eyes seem to dilate and draw one to him
with their magnetism. He tries his witchery
on every one, white or black, and even at
tempted to focus his honor while standing
in the prison dock. A pair of heavy specta
cles, however, thwartea him. He is a reaily
and willing talker and takes great delight iu
detailing in his broad dialect the ease with
which he hoodwinks “de stupertishus nig
gab ” ~
“O.ppsUaw, honey hit’s all foolishness,”sad
he, “but hit fotches de dimes and quawtaln
mighty fas’ sometimes, I tell you, he re
marked, ns he rolled a huge quid of tobacco
about iiis capacious jaws and established
himself more comfortably on his hard bench
behind the bars.
“When I cum to dis town to tend my step
son, Dave Murphy, ‘bout a monf ago I fine
dat de boy is in de hands of a common voo
doo named Hersy who live in Hyde Pawk.
De tioy wuz sick an’ a-groaning fit ter kill.
His belly wuz kivered wiff onions chopped
fine. Well, sail, I jes’ sot back and laif at de
Doe. He axed me den what wuz I laffenat,
an’ I say ‘sech a common doin’s.’ Wid dat

an kep’ a-comin’ eloser’n closer to him.
Suddenly I pass my hail’ over him, an" groan
dat I feel ‘Ole Majiuu’ cornin’ to me. All
dis time de Dqc shiverin’ powfull, an’ I wants
to holler, but I dassent. I kep’ situs. Wen
I tech him wid my ban’ he yelp an’ run
frum de house like a dawg.”
Here “Doc,'’ who styles himself the “King
of Kings,” broke out into a roar whicn
shook the bars on the grated doom.
Continuing, he said that he scraped .the
onions off his stepson ana cured him in fis c
minuted. “ ‘cause de boy’ only ’ruagiue dat
he sick frum love. But de lies’ fang,” he
added, “de lies’ ting is de way I has made de

and scribbled, he continued: “Afohl cum

Boston Letter to the Providence Journal.
A little Boston maiden of 6 summers has a
prize King Charle* Spaniel, for which a doting
aunt paid the neat price of S4OO. The aunt was
desirous of entering the dog at a bench show,
and obtaining permission of the girl’s parents,
she did so. It then became necessary to break the
news to the child that for four days she would
be separated from her pet. At first she refused
to be comforted, answering all arguments and
offers of bribes merely by extravagant lamenta
tions: hut at length the inevitable seemed to as
sert itself in tiie corner of her small brain de
voted to philosophy, and upon the. theory I hat
what must be, must be. she became more calm.
She was overheard, however, giving very earn
est advice to her darling upon the proper man
ner of conducting himself in this strange show
to which he was going, and she laid especial
stress upou the company he was to keep there.
“Don't ’sociate with common dogs,' she in
stmeted him impressively. “You may speak to
tie President's dog, Queen Victoria's dog and—
and God’s dog."

CHURCH’S BUG FINISH!
Heady for Use Dry, No Mixing Required
STICKS to the vines and finishes the whole
crop of POTATO BUGS with one applica
tion, also, kills any Curculio and the Cotton
and Tobacco Worm.
This is the only safe way to use a Strong Poi
son : none Of the Poison is in a clear state, but
thoroughly combined by patent, process and
machinery, with material to help the very fine
powder to st ick to the vines and entice the bug*
to eat it, and is also a fertilixer.
One Pound will go as far as Ten Pound* of
Planter and Paris Green as mixed by the farm
er*, 1* therefore cheaper and saves trouble and
danger of mixing and using the green, which, it
Is needless to sav, is daugcrous to handle.
Cheaper than any other mixture ueed for the
purpose.
Guaranteed more effective than any other
mixture sold for the purpose.
