$5OO FOR A FEW OLD BRICKS.
Mr. Fletcher, of South Carolina, Made
This Bad Bargrain.
From the New York Sun.
Inspector McLaughlin and Detective
Sergeants Crowley and McCluskey made
a rich green-goods haul yesterday morn
ing. They arrested a man and a woman,
who gave their names as Charles Walters,
40 years old, and Nellie Walters, 38 years
old, both of 334 East Forty-first street.
The prisoners say they are husband and
wife. The woman is tall and good look
ing. They were arraigned yesterday af
ternoon before Just ice Grady in the Jeffer
son Market police court headquarters,
where the story incident to their arrest
was told.
They are accused of swindling F. H.
Fletcher of Piedmont, S. C., out of $5OO
by the green goods game. It is probable
that many more complaints will come in
within the next few days. The prisoners
work a comparatively new variety of the
game. On June 20 Mr. Fletcher, who is a
prosperous farmer, got a type-written
letter explaining how to get had money
for good. Tlie ink used in the letter was
blue, and a small piece of blue
ribbon was pasted in the lower
left-hand corner of the paper. The
letter told Fletcher to go to the Hotel
Cambridge, at Chester, Pa., where a
man would meet him and give him a piece
of blue ribbon. He was to follow that
man. The letter warned him against an
alleged green goods gang in Hoboken,
and told him to answer no letters that
were not written in blue ink and to which
tile blue ribbon was not attached, it was
signed: “C. E. Perkins, 693 Third ave
nue.”
Fletcher went to Chester, and on June
24 met Walters there. He came to New
York with him, stopped at the Ashland
House, and later went to his house. A
valise was shown him that was seemingly
filled with bills, and a bundle of -fl bills
was handed to him to examine. Then he
paid Walters SKki for the valise.
According to Fletcher's story, Mrs.
Walters at this point entered the room
with a valise, the counterpart of the one
Fletcher had bought. She said she was
going away in a few minutes, and put the
valise down on the table beside the other.
She left the room for a minute, but re
turned as if in a great hurry, grabbed one
of the valises and left, saying that she
must catch a train. Fletcher went out
soon after with another valise. He found
when he opened it that it was full of
bricks. Ho reported the matter to In
spector McLaughlin, and yesterday morn
ing Crowley and McCluskey arrested the
couple.
The police found letters in the ixisses
sion of the prisoners implicating them in
other cases. Papers found show that
Walters also operated under the names of
Charles Miller, (101 l Third avenue: Charles
Clements, loti West Thirty-sixth street,
and J. McCarty. One of the letters, writ
tor on paper bearing the name of Dunn A
Dwyer, ltd East Madison street, Chicago,
read as follows:
Charles Clements, 153 West Thirty-sixth
Street, New York City:
Dear Friend Charley: I have not been in
very good luck since I left home. lam get
ting a little sure money every day while here,
but am only waiting tor a bank roll again to
go out In the country. Do all you can to- help
Nellie and I will reward you when I come
home, if I get any money, which 1 hope to gut
soon. Y’oor sincere friend,
W. K. Henderson.
Another letter read:
Charles Walters, 334 East Forty-first Street.
City:
Charley: You only used me for your own
convenience. Yon were dumb about sending
C O. D. s. I know inyself that you got tel
egrams all along and guys also. 1 found that
out very easy. Please don t fool with the
cards If you get connected with any one else. •
You are young in the business, but you have
got a bad adviser. To show you that you
have been playing me for a fool. I knew you
re beating guys all along. Even Mrs. M.
told my wife to day that you beat four guys
since you beat the man 1 went to Easton for.
Now. if a mail would do wrong to you you
would not like it. would you. Mr. Mud.
A third letter said, in part, after men
tioning another case:
Charles Walters. 334 East Forty-first street,
city.
Charley: It is very funny you .should come
to me and ask me to beat that guy if you
thought 1 was trying to beat you, as you said
i was. out of the guy from S. C.
I toll you the trouble, you took a dying
man's choice. You and Mrs. Mud says to
yourself, this is a dangerous guy. We will
let Mack beat him. and if he was any good
you would not bring him to rue. You had beat
that man very near two weeks. I was enti
tled to some consideration out of that man.
Your wife told mine that 1 had three private
addresses. As long as she is with you, you
will get damn little money. She is out for
the money, and she will come near getting
all you have got.
Mu. MUD.
The police will take the prisoners be
fore Justice Grady this afternoon, when
they will probably be held to await the
arrival of Mr. Fletcher or other com
plainants.
Mr. Frank McNear. of San Francisco, and
Miss Zitti Woods, of Oakland, had made ar
rangements to lie married at the residence of
a relative of tie bride in Vallejo. Cal., on the
ad in>t.. and in the afternoon of that day tho
entire party, with the clergyman who was to
officiate, strolled over to the navy yard, and
in ,i sudden impulse It was determined to
h ive till ceremony performed on board Far
ia Bit's old liagshtp. the Hartford. Permis
sion was obtained, and the party was rowed
out to the vessel and me ceremony performed
on its historic deck, greatly to lb" astotiish
tnent of the ship's keeper. A young man of
the party rung out a wedding march on the
shin s bell, and the fire out at the yard put
out in great haste, thinking there was a call
for its services.
Edward Everett Hale tolls a curious story
of Tennyson's appointment to the laureate
ship. The honor was first offered tflSamuel
Rogers bv Prime All on. and the banker-poet
ii devlinin : it. because of age. recommended
Tennyson tor the place. The prime minister
wrote In topic : We arc not av claimed with
the works of this gentleman, and will you le
good enough to let me know whether h - has
overwritten anything which would make it
improper for a woman to nurne him for this
no-t- Mr. Hale guvs that this story is as
true ns it is funny, for he saw the original
correspondence with his own eyes.

WISDOM THROUGH EXPERIENCE
Mon*. Poujol Ha* * Busin*** Trans
action With a Fellow Philosopher.
From the New York Nun
The Harlem doctor burst into the atel
ier of the learned barber, his face aglow,
and the odors of the large bouquet he car
ried permeated and sweetened the heated
atmosphere.
"Monsieur," said the doctor, as he re
moved his coat and waistcoat, and strug
gled with his < ollar. "see what lovely
Mowers a patient lias given to mo to take
to my wife.”
The doctor knowing well the sympathe
tic and artistic nature of the learned bar
ber, expected some admiring response,
but instead the latter only sights! very
deeply. As lit- fitted the apron snugly un
der the doctor's chin M. le burbier said :
"Monsieur, tell me. are the skies as blue
to-day as usual?”
"Surely," replied the doctor. “Can't
you see that there isn't a speck on tho
heavens’ It is a wonderfully tine day."
"And the sun shines as brightly, and
the air is as pure and wholesome, and the
Mowers smell as sweetly, and tho women
are as lovely as ever:”
"Why, of course. You are not ill,
monsieur? Let me feel your pulse.”
"No, no,” monsieur, sadly; "it is not
that. 1 admit lam somwhat disturbed,
that the loveliness of nature does not ap
peal to me, that my heart lies heavy and
crushed within my bosom. It is strange,
very strange. I thought I had become
steeled to the cruelties of this harsh
world, and that my philosophy was supe
rior to my emergencies. But. alas, mon
sieur, there are some blows which even
the philosopher cannot immediately sus
tain with proper calmness and indiffer
ence. 1 have had a life of many experi
ences, monsieur, and have suffered much,
but ”
"Good heavens!” exclaimed the doctor,
half rising in his scat, "you don’t mean,
monsieur, that your family ”
"No, no, not that, 1 ’ said the barber;
“my family, thanks to a divine provi
dence, is well, quite well, I thank you.
No, monsieur, the shock which has turn
ed m.v usually blithesome spirits into dark
and dreary channels came from without.
Monsieur, I must confess frankly that I
am disappointed in finding that the phil
osophy which has supported me for these
many years should now suddenly desert
me. That is almost as great a blow to
my pride as the affair itself is to my tend
erer emotions. It troubles me. 1 fee: I
shall be a wiser man for all this, mon
sieur, but at present it comes hard. Mv
susceptibilities have been sorely wound
ed. If you will sit up a little higher,
monsieur. So, that is better. Much off
to-day?”
"As usual,” said the doctor.
"Ah, as usual. Very well, monsiour.
Your mustache is developing finely. You
may soon bo proud of it. All, well, it is
tt strange world, monsieur. I feci a little
better for having spoken to you thus
frankly. I will now relate to you the
circumstances that have conspired to
make me so unhappy. You probably re
member. monsieur, the man'whom I have
ttlways addressed as professor, fie is the
very handsome man with the golden
hoard out tt la Henri IV. He was. if you
will remember, a very witty man. and
always dominated the conversation when
he was here. He, spoke French almost
without accent, and was a fine conversa
tionalist. I hud a great regard for that
man. monsieur. We have discussed phil
osophy and art together many, many
times, and 1 t bought I detected in him
a sympathy for the sentiments which
have been the result of my lifelong
study and of my devotion to the ideal, X
have seen tears in his eyes, monsieur, when
1 outlined my theory of the eternity of
art and the oneness of its various
visible forms, so long as they had in them
the essence of art's first principle—truth.
And when it came to philosophy, mon
sieur, I was convicted that I had in this
man a pupil worthy of his teacher—ono
who appreciated those inmost truths
which are revealed only to the most pa
tient inqestigatioi). Ah, monsieur. I
learned to love this man almost as a son.
I said to myself, 'Henri, you are fortunate
in having so worthy a pupil to perpetuate
and spread to the world the fruits of your
unbroken devotion to the artistic and the
lessons of nature. When the time comes
for your departure from this state of care
and worry you can go with the satisfac
tion which comes from the knowledge
that effort has not been wasted. The
professor will take up your work where
you left it, and, depend upon it, he w‘ll
carry it on. Monsieur, when I think of
what has transpired since then, it seems
as though my faith in human nature was
gone beyond recall. I know my philoso
phy will .vet bring me back from the
gloomy depths of this new-born pessim
ism, but at present—well, I must not di
gress again. You will pardon mo, mon
sieur.
It was just a week ago to-day—Wed
nesday morning—that I saw this ingrate
for .the last time. He came in here early,
and I was greatly pleased to see him.
As usual, I trimmed his beard myself.
It would be telling only the truth to say
that I expended on him my very best ef
forts. You sac, monsier, I was inspire J
by my affection for him to unusual zeal,
anil result was more artistic than I would
ordinarily be capable of. I assure you,
that beard was the chef d’ceuvre. It is a
pity it could not have been immortalized
on canvas or in marble. As I worked we
talked of philosophy and of art, and I
gave to the beard the form and character
and life that a noble philisopher's heard
should possess. The professor remained
with me for more than an hour. When
he was ready to go he thrust his hand in
his trousers pocket, so. A look of sur
prise nnd amazement came into his face.
■peste!’ he cried, ‘how stupid of me!
Ah, well. 1 suppose that comes from my
dreaming. Monsieur, you will have to
trust me for an hour or two. I have for
gotten my purse. I will return to my
lodgings and get it, and then I will pay
you.’
"All this he said with the most charm
ing manner. -Nonsense,’ I cried, ‘do not
bother yourself. Between philosophers
mere money does not enter into the ques
tion. If you are so disposed pay me the
next time you come.’
"Ho smiled most graciously, thanked
me, and then started to go. Then he
stopped, looked thoughtful, and wrinkled
his brow.
" That is too bad,’ ho said, thought
fully. as though speaking to himself,
‘there Is that bid I ought to pay. Let mo
see: if 1 goto my home on Eighty-fifth
street and then way down town, tho
gtvater part of tho day will be lost. Still,
it must be done. It will be a lesson.’
"Thereupon I interposed. Could I not
he of s rvieef I asked. We wore friends,
comrades in tho 'pursuit of knowledge.
'You are very kind, Henri, ho replied,
■very kind. The fact is, 1 promised to
pay a trifling bill of £2O to the bookseller
[ with whom I trade. He is located on
I lower Broadway , and it will be a serious
! in. ouvenienee to me to lmve to go way up
town to get tny purse. If you can oblige
tne with that amount just as well as not,
I will return it to you not later than to
morrow.'
"I rejoiced to think I had not deposited
my cash in the bauk the day before. It
pleased me greatly to be able to be of this
trilling assistance to him. I gave him the
money, he assured mo again it would be
returned without fail the next day, wo
shook handt^ warmly, and he went away.
Ah, inonsier, I do not grieve over the mon
ey, although I will have to create a great
many artistic beards to replace it: but
that my childlike and affectionate confi
dence should be thus abused is a serious
shook. Oh, it is terrible. I cannot tell
jo : how baa I feel.”
■He did not return tho money?”
"No, lam convinced 'no never will. I
feel confident it was all a scheme of him
to rob me—me, tho poor artist, the iium-

bio philosopher. He (lid not come the
next day or the next, but 1 thought noth
ing of that. The phf>&sot)fter is often lost
in his m'editations, and I judged such was
the ease with him. Finally, last night
came. He always used to come on Tues
day afternoon, last week being the only
occasion he had not done so since I had
known him. So the idea occurred to me,
he may bo sick. Immediately 1 was con
vinced such must bo the case. I upbraid
ed myself for not having thought of that
before. 1 thought, ‘Henri, you ought to
be ashamed of yourself. Here your friend
and pupil is probably ill. and you do not
even inquire regarding him.’ 1 knew he
was a bachelor and my mind was filled
with thoughts of the terrible things that
might happen to a sick man “all alone in
’ his room, and perhaps too weak to sum
mon assistance. I could hardly wait for
the hour when my shop would close. As
soon as that time came I rushed up town,
not even waiting for my dinner, although
1 was hungry. I knew his address, a
house near Columbus avenue, on Eighty
fifth street, where he had a furnished
room. I rang the boll, trembling with
apprehension. A servant came to the
door.
“ T wish to see Prof. .Tamse,’ said I.
“ ‘Huh,’ said she, 'my mistress would
like to see him too, but 1 guess
he won’t come around here very
much.’
“ -What do you mean, woman," said 1,
angry beyond bounds, at her disrespect
ful language in speaking of the profes
sor. -How dare you talk so of a gentle
mnn ?’
“‘Gentleman!’ she replied with scorn.
‘A fine gentleman he Is, running away
without paying his board, and borrowing
money from the poor widow, too. Sure,
he loft nothing but a lot of soiled clothes
rve had to throw away. And here I've
had to answer the bell a dozen times a day,
telling the people ho swindled what a
scoundrel he was.’
“Monsieur, it seemed as though my
heart would break. My knees trembled,
and the perspiration stood out on my
forehead. I tottered down those steps,
dazed and humiliated. How T got home I
know not. I left my dinner untasted All
last night I tossed aud moaned, so that
my wife wanted to know if I had the
stomach ache. Only toward morning I
fell into an uneasy slumber, disturbed by
dreams of grinning devils, who were
dancing about me in a horribly fantastic
way, and pointing fingers at me scorn
fully. It will be long before lam myself
again.”
A look of hopeless pain came into the
barber's face, and he settled into silent
melancholy. He worked at his customer
almost mechanically, and with a far-away
look in his eyes. The doctor was also
silent, but pressed the barber's hand
sympathetically.

NARROW ESCAPE FROM INDIANS.
An Exciting Chase of the Custer
Campaign.
From the New York Tribune.
San Diego, dal., June 24.—The “Sibley
Scout" is famous among Indian fighters as
being one of the narrowest escapes from
savages now on record. The hero of that
hazardous encounter with the dreaded
Sioux passed the winter at this place in
company with the writer, and favored
htin with a sketch of that memorable ac
tion of a handful of troopers away up in
the Big Horn mountains, far from the
main command. It, was in 1878, at the
time of Custer's massacre, when F. W.
Sibley, of General Crook’s column, then a
young lieutenant, was ordered out with
twenty-five mounted men to look about
the country and see what was going on
FrankGrouard.it half breed,Jand ono of
the best scouts living, accompanied Sibley.
Tho young officer was fresh from West
Point ana rather inexperienced in frontier
warfare, so cautious General Crook bade
him hoed the scout’s advice should emer
gency arise, and off the troopers started,
almost at the very hour when Custer,-a
hundred miles or so away, was beitisr cut
to pieces by tho cutthroats of Sitting
Bull.
The scouting party was ignorant of
this, however, and traveled for two days
without incident. As they neared the
mountains Grouard. who always traveled
ahead of the soldiers, suddenly signaled
to halt. Indian signs were seen. From
an eminence commanding a vast area of
rolling country little specks could be seen
here and there. The glass proved that
each speck was a squad of several Sioux
in war costume. The specks began to
concentrate. They moved toward the
trail made by the troopers, but without
discovering it for a long time. The Indi
ans were ignorant of the presence of sol
diers. After holding a pow-wow one of
the savages rode toward the
tell-tale trail. By chance he
discovered it and returned to his com
rades waving his blanket and gesticulat
ing. It then seemed to the young cavalry
officer as if Indians sprang from the eart h
in all directions to see what had been dis
covered. There were swarms of them.
But, happily, they went miles away.
Then began the race for life. The moun
tains offered the only refuge. Up and up
scrambled the horses. On came the In
dians. They were seen occasionally along
canyons in the rear. The hand had di
vided and was trying to head off the sol
diers and surround them. Sudddcnly,
as the soldiers ascended the side of a
gulch and gained a small plateau, a party
of redskins sprung at them, firing their
rifles and yelling.
"The men scattered like sheep,” says
Captain Sibley, "and I confess that for
the inonent my heart was in my mouth.
My horse fell down an embankment,
whi h added to my discomfort. I or
dered the men to fire even if they didn’t
aim at the enemy, for a ritie made a noise
like a curtuon amid those hills. Finally
the men eot together and we retreated
up the slope to a bit of wooded ground
which protected us from tho Indians’
fire. This was about V o’clock in the
morning. The Indians began to gather
about us rapidly. Tne situation was
growing more serious every minute. My
men were doing good work with their
rifles. It pleased me to see one man shoot
a noted Sioux chief right through the
heart. Tnat old sinner never twitched a
muscle after the lead hit
him. We never knew how
many we killed, be.uuse when
an Indian is shot his comrades keep him
out of sight. Well, wc held them off for
four hours, and they were four hours of
red-hot work, I can tell you. My scout
then told mo that the Indians were on
three sides of us. We hid one chance left
to retreat, and this fa'-t was fast lessen
ing, because fresh Indians were coining.

but it was that ordie. So thorctreat was
ordered. I inspected each man personally
to see that his equipment was all right,
but owing to tny Inexperience and the ex
citement of tlie moment I forgot the ra
tions. Only one man hi the command
took his rations. It was an hour or so
before the Indians discovered.that we had
fled. By that time we were tip in the
mountains in places so steep that one man
had to belli the other uj*. Horses could
not follow us. So, for tlio time being, the
Sioux would not strike us. Grouard took
a mountain trail, which we followed on
foot for fifty hours without a mouthful to
cat. Such fearfully vigorous exercise
withput food nearly killed us. Toward
the end of the perilous march wc till be
came so weakened that we marched for
ten minutes and then would lie down and
rest. Several of the most robust men be
came insane, and one or two never re
gained their wits. When wo reached
Crook's camp I slept for twenty-four
hours without waking, and during that
time the camp was sharply attacked by
the Indians. Even the roar of the mus
ketry did not disturb m.v sleep in tho
least. Not a single man was lost on this
trip.’’
Remarking on the peculiarities of plain
life. Captain Sibley said that it seemed
wonderful to him what remarkable in
stincts a halfbrcod scout possessed. A
scout had led him across a trackless waste
on a dark night when tho snow was fall
ing and the wind blowing. There was
not a landmark to guide the scout. The
horses were continually drifting to wind
ward as it were, in the effort to get their
faces away from the cutting blast. Yet,
in the face of all these difficulties tho
scout would lead the troopers, after
marching all night, to the exact spot for
which they started, and he never failed.
A surprising peculiarity of Indians is
their carelessness about posting sentinels
when they go into camp, even when they
know that an enemy is near. Captain
Sibley has seen a large village completely
surrounded by soldiers in Jjp: early morn
ing without an alarm being given. In
fact, the only movement in the Indian
camp as late as 9 o’clock in the morning
was the appearance of an old squaw, who
came out of a wigwam to change tho po
sition of a tethered horse.
