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 CHILIAN NAVY. New and Interesting Facts Con cerning Its Status. From the Sail Francisco Chronicle.

'lids s. IJtl ‘ "'rt of its class ami lias served ' S B 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.

THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, APRIL 21, 1887. “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 I up am looked hard an’ senis-iike at de Doc, 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 udder hoodoos step aroun’ sence I cum to town.” Then, taking out a notebook, greasy and scribbled, he continued: “Afohl cum Doc William Allen was de King. He keeps a hoodoo shop at No. 1519 State street. Den dere wuz Miss Julia Glass at No. 1312 State street, a seventh daughter of a seventh dau ghter; ole one-legged Mingo, who always wears a plug hat ana carries so many hank sheefs wiff him to wrap up de hog-bladdnhs wichheuses; Miss Pet Williams, No. 413 Clawk street: and Miss Better, on Third avenue.

Big John de Conka, Thorny Thistle, ami Bosia Cential, de champion of de wurl, it scares ’em away; I’m too strong fur ’em, dey say, and dey leaves.” Instructions. 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."
