z . AS L WAGHER:
About as far as some fellers git in
th’ public eye Is to write their names
on th’ capitol dome in Washington.
OLD MAN NOAH MISSED A
LOT OF WORDS WHEN HE
WROTE DICTIONARY.
Old Noah missed a lot of words
when he wrote the dictionary. If you
don’t believe it ask any detective.
There are words in common use in
the underworld which have never
found their way into that vast tome.
Crooks speak a language of their
own. It is the one of the ways which
they have of identifying those of the
“gentry” who drift into their com
pany.
Far be it from a yeggman to call
himself a safe cracker. To his intimate
friends he is a “peterman,” which
identifies him as a member of the sec
ond highest social set of the under
world. The con man who deals in
“hot paper,” or stolen bonds, is of the
400 among criminals. The “bunco
steerer” is the party who leads the
“oulls,” in American slang the “suck
ers,” to the slaughter. The “pay off”
man is the high class “ghee” that puts
the finishing touches to the victim.
A “mouthpiece” may be a lawyer or
a prominent person who will “front”
for a crook that has been arrested. To
“front” for a person is to appear in
his behalf in court.
A “gay cat” is the “peterman’s” ad
vance agent. He lays the plans for
the “job,” but seldom takes any part
in the actual robbery. A burglar kit
or valise in which stolen property is
kept is a “keister.” A broker who
deals in stolen property is a “fence.”
Girl bandits are “gun molls,” and re
volvers are usually referred to as
“rods” or “irons.”
Police who will accept graft are said
to “play Washington,” and graft mon
ey is usually referred to in terms of
“orands.” A ‘“grgnd” is a thousand
dollars.
To be sentenced to prison is to “be
put in the stir.”
A “hi-jacker” is a criminal who robs
other criminals.
“Sheet writers” are fake magazine
solicitors. “Pitch men” are soap box
peddlers who sell medicines and trink
ets on street /corners. A body of
crooks is always referred to as a
“mob,” schools are ‘“knowledge box
es.” and doctors who resort to shady
practice are said to run “mills.”
