Sew York Mall and Express. ••I>eK|iite the lntra enacted to protect the poor »n«l ignorant, New York given business ninl skelter to more Kliylock* to-<lay than ever disgraced tlie fair name of Venice. They abotrnd in every profession, flourish in ail localities, nntl bring more misery uml desolation to hap|>y homes than the human mintl can imagine. Clad in the garb of re putable business men, these modem Shy- lock* rob the widow, persecute the orphan anti increase the ranks of the criminal hurtle to an extent that is nppnlliug to contem- * ' it waa a well known criminal lawyer that delivered himself thus to a representative of the Mail and Express, and as lio turned over the bundle of papers in his hand, ho stopp ed and, drawing out a brief, continued: "Here is a case now of a young man that will lie lncky if he escapes State prison, whose downfall can be traced directly to one of those Shylock* who lend money on sain- ries." “But not without security? ‘‘No, indeed But the security is of the imund of flesh charnel*.. To a young man wishing an accommodation they lend vari ous sums undea fSO. For this accommoda tion the dupe assigns s certain portion of his salary every week or month, as the ense may up.’ be, until the whole amount is made "I should think snch a plan a most gen- crons one!" “So it wonld be, if the face of the assign ment was realized, nr even its face less a fair rate of interest, but when you consider that from 30 to 100 per cent is charged for the accommodation yon can readily under stand its evil." “But snch a ruto of interest is usury! ‘‘The Shylock* look out for that. They do not demand it as interest. They charge what they caU legal fee* for drawing the pallets of assignment. For instance, you. borrow $50 and agree to repay it in install ments of *5 per week. You receive $30. Hie other $11 goes for fees and interest. Ten dollars is the nsual charge for drawing such an assignment.” %Hut where does their business come from?” ‘•From young men who have no knowl edge of the value of money. From clerks on small salaries, nnsble to wait for ps.v day. Yonng men intutnated with nil speculation and following the bosses are their first ens- tomers. Cleverly worded advertisements and skirmishers among the credulous bring lunch Unit to their nets." “Is there no wny by which the law can reach these men?” “Not one. And if there was they wonld find sonic way to evade the law. Their scheme* and methods are as numerous as they are ingeuions. The love of money is a vigorous jHi-sion with them, and the law re ally, by its peculiar power of construction, shields them and grants them immunity from tile consequences of their irregular proceedings. The ventilation of the matter by the pn ss is the only means offered for escaping their clutches." “lint yon said these money brokers are inoro numerous in this city." “Every large corporation, especially whero salaries arc paid only once a month, is in fested with them, aim ninny a poor Baasnnio do they manage to cotcli in their terrible net. The sums of money they exact from their victims in a year oftentimes exceeds their salary hv fourfold. I know an instance where an engineer on the New York Centra! railroad once paid a money-lender of this class rent per cent for a loan of $30 for less than ten days. Even the police and fire departments, the clerks in the municipality nml the custom house fall an easy prey to the machinations of these modem Shylock*. Only lust week I was asked to undertake the case of a yonng man who had sold liis war rant for tiie month to three different par ties. nml lately I sec there has been much trouble of the same kind in sevend of the departments of the city government." “But the policemen and firemen are ob liged to pay their debts by rule* governing tlieir respective departments." “And that is why these l.iml-sharks are willing to land them $1 and take nn assess ment for $3. Just tbs lima with the tele graph operators and elevated railroad em ployee. Tbeykeepongiiing to these usurers for accommodation until at last, when they have no more money with which ■ to aatisfy their demands, they oliscond, default or commit snicide. Even the poor soldier is not exempt Entitled, as he is, to a miserly sum as a pension, they lend him money on his papers nntil pension day comes nronnd. No p<nsioner can get bis check without showing his papers. This fact is known to the Shylock*. lie goes w ith his victim to get his money, and ofentimes charges him legal exchange forcashing hi*check, besides taking what the poor fellow has already as- sigmsl to him. “Besides these men who lend money on snlaries, there arc the installment fiends, the pawnbrokers and others who advance money on insurance policies, warehonso re ceipts, bills Ilf lading, ate., all of whom are instrumental in wr< eking many apromisiug future.” „ “What can yon say against the install ment pbin?" , , . , “First, that it mdnres people to buy what they do Dot w ant. Then, excessive prices ere asked for their goods. This excess in price elands for the bonus cxneted by the money-lender. But, above all, the fore- doaure'of what these peoph term o chattel mortgage is what I object to.

Wil kinson end detective Dave Larkins were on the pier. The dcserintion telegraphed from New Orleans ws* that Ferdinand Lanmont was 22 years of age, five feet eight inches toll, of medium bnild, with rather large black eyes, a fnll dark beard and dark complexion. It woa further said that one upper tooth in the front of his month was missing, and that his shoulders were slightly round. He was a French Creole, spoke Imth French and English, the latter with a slight accent, and wore, when lust seen, n dark suit of cle.the*. At the steamer Wilkinson called his com panion's Attention to a man who stood on the upper deck leaning over the roil. The man fulfilled the description to the letter, except that he might nave been twenty- eight instead of twenty-two. As (ho de tective slipped aboard uml ranged along side of him. He leaned over the rail and hade good-bye to a fellow passenger with the peculiar /vi/iiis nf the Creole, and when Superintendent Wilkinson addressed him he turned, anil, as he answered his greeting in broken English, smiled. The middle upper tooth was broken off close to the resit The detectives explained very quietly. “The man started," said Mr’ Wilkinson, in speaking of the matter yesterday, “grew perfectly red, and stepped hack a" pace or two. He acted, in fact precisely as u guilty man nsnnlly does set on tho stage or in u novel. We asked him not to make a scene, and he agreed not to, explaining volubly nil the time who he was, anil giving ns his’ref- erenccs in New York. There was something about his manner, despite tho remarkable manner in which he tallied with the descrip tion, that mode me think for a minute that perhaps some mistake had been made after all. At all events we bade him good-by on the steamer and went to look up his references. Of course, wc had s shadow on him meanwhile, and had it fixed so that we could put hands on him any time. We wired for a fuller description td New Orleans, lint it only made the thing worse, fur they continued to describe the man whom wc were shadowing here. Yes terday we got dispatches from the Southern office that the real forger had been eanglit. In tracing their man to the river front they were all right, hut instead of coming North on a steamer he took the Louisville and Nashville railroad, and came North that way to Cincinnati. CiH ASTI.V It K LICK OF tV A It. Bones In tlie Meillral Museum that Tell Tor tured Mortality's Sad Story. ' Washington Star. There is one place in Washington that very few sight-seers visit. It is a museum with a very extensive and novel collection composed entirely of fragments of dead peo ple, and it occupies the old Ford’s Theatre, on Teutli street, in which Lincoln met his tragic death. The once gay theatre is now- associated with skeletons mid doath. The first floor, where the pit was, is occupied by the clerical force of the medical de partment of the army. The dress circle contains a library and a few ait'cnlated skeletons, while the peannt gallery, where the street arnbs used to assemble st night to nppland the acting and droji peanut hulls and orange peelings on the bald heads in tlie pit, is given np exclusively to the col lection of fragments of dead men. There is seldom anybody in the museum except the attendant.' At the entrance to the library a group of skeletons stand grinning a sepul chral welcome. Near the door is n sign and an index finger, which tolls the visitor that the ninseum is upstairs. Up stairs there are rows of glass cases all tho way around the wall, and close together from cast to west across the room there are large glass jars like preserving jars. Some have human hearts m them; some hold the lungs and liver. Others hold the kidneys, spleens, eyes, noses, ears and fingers of nien who have been a long time dead. Among the spleens is thnt of Guitean, which is a third larger than that of any of the mat. One case is devoted to arms and legs that have licen amputated,uml show how nice and slick tho snrgcon's knife and saw went through. Some are lacerated and torn to pieces by gunshot wounds. Most of the exhibits nre tlie scraps of men picked up off the battle field. One heart has two nig ounc Imllcts imbedded in it Another has a deepo gash in it, and near by is a dirk-knife. Another esse is devoted to horrible looking hands and feet pat up in glass jars. An eye torn from its socket by n mnsket hall is soaked in alcohol; odds and ends and all sorts of fragment* of dead people are collected there like the scraps for a crazy quilt Bnt the chief part of the collection con sists of small fragments of bones. There is a section of the backbone of Booth in a gloss case not many feet from the spot where he shot Lincoln. There ore all sort* of human lionea shattered by shot and shell. Skulls with great big lead balls sticking in them; big l>oties with fragments of iron shells crushing them into powder; joints broken apart by musket bolls; there are skulls, ribs, legs and anus, shattered and shivered by all sorts of missiles of war, and in some eases tlie lead and bone have become welded together. There nre over it,000 specimens of bones fractured in curi ous ways by shot. There are plaster cost* of different cut* of the human body that make the eases look like a butcher's stall. There is the great French skeleton, a giant in proportions, every bone as white os ivory, teeth all perfect like (learls, toe* turned out nml palms of the hands extended with aU the grace of a dancing master, “Look at those teeth,” said one of the at tendants to the Star re|mrter. “He is proud of those teeth. None but s French skele ton coaid have teeth like that. Y'ou can al ways tell a Frenchman by that" SCIENTIFIC GAMBLING. Men Whom tlie Professionals Fear—Profits of ltegular Players. Ht Loots BepobUc-o. “Nothing,” said the gambler, “annoys s proprietor more than tragedy. He wiU take any measure to keep suen emotional, high- strung temperaments from his rooms. If all the sentimental and sensational story book frequenters of these places were elimi nated the hank wonld scarcely notice their absence. They are the lione and sinew of the gambling harvest. It is the great ma jority of svemge commonplace men that yield* the profits." “Undoubtedly," assented the reporter, refleciing that the avenge commonplace nmn help* along most of the stupendous movements of the world's machinery. Then, not eager to discuss the moral ethics of gam bling. a more practical question was pat; “Can yon tell me the real percentage of the risk the bank poMcsoes against the player?” “Well," was the reply, “the apparent per centage is small and varies in the several games—roulette, faro and others carrying dirt, r. nt rates—but the real percentage is ■ uormntuly in the bank's favor. It lies in diis same principle of human nature that 1 have just commented upon. The avenge i .layer, if he wine sevend consecutive bets, becomes cautious, anticipates a change in luck and venture* his money accordingly. The result is, if bis good fortune continue* his winning* nre small or unimportant. On tlie other hand, let him lose continuously and be becomes excited. He loses hu pursuing ment that it is • Tone lane which has no turning, ho in creeses his stakes. This pot. icy, with continued misfortune, ends in large losses. Thns, when the bnnk is loser it is for small sums, but when winning the gains are large. “What the hank is afraid of are the cop, amative, persistent players, but there are not many of them. There is A class of men st the European gambling places,and a very small class, who have reduced the thing to a fine point. These men risk every evening a single bet, always the same amount. If tlie het wins they continue to play, but only so long as their profits will permit. If, how ever, the first venture fails thoy quit the game nntil the following evening. In this way their loss is limited to the original bet, while if fortune favors them they may win n large amount. This |Hilicy is pursued daily and a single night's winnings fur nishes capital enough for a long period of bud luck. These men do not enjoy gam bling, hut it support* them, and I have no doubt that they ncrmunlate valuable sta tistics in the ratio and proportion of games of chance. They are detested by the offi rials of the place, hut their right to piny ni they please cannot be questioned. “But if this be u fact, said tho reporter, “why is not the practice more linivental!" “Because," was tlie emphatic response, not one man in a thousand possesses tho requisite eluiracteristies to control himself nndcr the spur of such excitement as the gaming table can offer.” “Do professional gamblers, ns a rule, al ways have money!" "The average professional gambler,” was the reply, “is dead broke nine months out of the twelve." INVENTOR KEELY. Ills Life Alleged to lie n Romantic Story of Imposture. A Philadelphia capitalist who is here, says the New Y’ork World, says that if the true life of Kecly, the motor man, could be writ ten it woulil prove to he one of tho most ro- innntic stories of imjiostaris ever known. He says that several years ago, when Keely's great claims began to be talked about in Phil adelphia, lie made an investi gation for his own satisfaction into Keely' past. He thought thnt he could jndgii better by his record ns a man than by trying to talk with Keely about his mysteri ous motor. He fonnil thnt just before com ing to Philadelphia he was a performer in u circus and thnt he lia.1 nearly all of his life made a precarious living by performing sleight-of-hand tiiiks. He is a man of 0" education, and is absolutely destitute of any scientific acquirement. 11c says that Kecly has gone to work, however, very skillfully, and has learned the jargon of nn extensive scientific vocabulary. He has about 800 of these words and phrases at his tongue's end, and, he can turn the head of the average scientist liy the rapidity and certainty with which he tosses these words and phrases into his general conversation. Keely has one gift, he says, which is great enough to be called genius, and thnt is his skill in humbugging people. He has great S ower by mere talk of setting aside all onbt ns to his ability and to influence peo- { ilo to let him have uioueyin the most reck- essly confident way. Nearly all of his present backers are New York men. Every now and then these barkers become despondent and get together and go over to Philadelphia. Then Mr. Keely get* a sleight- of-hand performance for them, talks to them in hi* peculiarly gifted way, and the trust ing capitalists go back buoyed np with hope, fully confident that thoy are backing one of the great inventors of the age. Keely has never invented anything, this gentleman says, except stories, sml will nover give any other dividend n|ion the capital invested in him beyond that of romances sml diversions in the shape of occasional sleight-of-hand performances. GENERAL INFORMATION. Tn give some idea how quickly milk will absorb odors one has only to place a saucer of milk in a larder in which meat or game is hung. In a few hours the milk becomes' so tainted that no animal will tonch it. If the French can derive $150 annually from one cow, making cheese a specialty, why should not the same be done in this country? Our facilities are equal to those of the French, while onr markets are quite as good. It is a well demonstrated fact that land half worked can never more than half pay. It is the difference lietween imjierfcct anil thorough culture where lie* all the mystery why some farmers make so little and some so much. It has been demonstrated that milk can be produced at a less cost from ensilage fed with grain than any other food, and in qual ity it is equnl to milk pnslnced by any other mode of feeding, llut ensilage alone is not so profitable. Observe your horse when he is drinking st a brook, is an Arab maxim. If in bring ing down his head he remains square with out bending his limbs he possesses sterling qualities and aU part* of nia body are built symmetrically. Bees require very little care in proportion to the profit derived from them. With an assistant an apiarist could rare for 200 colo nies, and ss much ss fifty pounds of honey has been secured from a colony during fa vorable seasons. Liquid cheese is a new article of manufac ture. A stock company, liackcd by German capital, is seeking incorporation in New Y’ork to place the article upon the market. It looks like maple syrup, but is said to have all the good qualities of solid cheese. Pears should not ripen on the trees. Plucked when fully grown and kept in a room of even temperature the color and fla vor of the fruit will be much better than if allowed to remain on the tree. Borne of the best kinds rot at the core on the tree, bnt escape such injury when plnckcd before fully ripe. A great aaving is effected by making wng- ons used on the farm with tires thereto four inches wide. The wheels will uot sink into the ground and the draught is consequently much lighter. English farm wagons are generally built in thia wny. On onlinary roads wide tiree make the track better in stead of entting the rut* more deeply, a* narrow tire* always da A bridle to prevent a cow from sacking herself is made ss follows: A bead-stall is fitted with a lmckle and strap or s ring on each side; a stout surcingle is fitted in the same way. A tongh rod of hickory or white oak is fastened on each side of the cow from the belt to the bridle; this makes it impos sible for the cow to reach the teats, while it doe* not interfere with her feeding. Clay is perhaps the most dilhcnlt of all soils to work. If cultivated when too wet it become* lumpy sml bard when dry. H plowed when very dry a considerable power u needed, and then the work ia poorly per- farmnh For this reason, if for no other, clav lamia should be thoroughly under drained that they may be kept in proper condition to work at nearly all seasons.
