    Hot so Green as They Looked.
"Ere you are I Walk right jn j The
grandest hexibition of living curiosi
ties on the globe, together with a dra
matic bentertainment nowhere hequal
ed in the city, and all for one dime—
-10 cents, 10 cents, do you ear ? Come
right along 1 In one 'awf hour the
performance begins.'
Thus sang unceasingly a young
man in checked clothes, with an ele
vated nose and a protruding chin, as
he stood in front of the New York
Dime Museum, at No. 210 Bowery,
with glaring pictures for a background
and tried to drown a cornet which
was tooting lustily above him. The
strain attracted two innocent-looking
countrymen with slouched hats and
cotton umbrellas, who were strolling
in wonderment up the Bowery,and in
they walked. A man with blonde
mustache and a suave air, who sat in
the box and sold J reserved seats at the
head of the stairway,marked their en
trance, and his eyes fairly moistened
with pleasure as they gazed at the fat
woman and then turned with open
mouths to the little midget by her
side. And whtn one nudged the oth
er and said out loud, 'By gum, this
beat*, all natur!' We ain't got uotliin
like this down our way, hev'we?'
the oily man could scarcely keep from
laughing with joy. Finally, when
they had stared at the beautiful Cir
cassian girl, watched the glass blow
ers make their fragile wares, and were
apparently on the point of going out,
the suave man approached.
'Ah, gentlemen, have yon seen the
entire show ?'
4 Wa1,1 reckon we purty much he v.'
'The stereoscopic views, the bones
of the mastodon, and the Asterome V
'No, we ain't seen them yet. Whar
are they ?'
'These are the views,' said he,
pointing to holes in the wall, wherein
dreadful scenes of carnage could be
observed, 'and there are the bones of
the mastodon, which we have procur
ed at an enormous expense. I shall
take you in my private room to show
you the Asterome.'
'Perlite, ain't he ?' said one of the
countrymen delightedly.
There were two other countrymen
in the room, and they were buying
tickets and drawing prizes from the
contrivance which was pointed out as
the Asterome. They pulled out priz
es at every draw.
'I reckon I'll take a chance,' said
one countryman, after watching it a
moment.
'Whoop 1' he exclaimed a moment
afterward as a gold ring fell to his
ticket.
'Ah, you are lucky,' exclaimed the
suave gentleman, laughing heartily.
'I have another game here, which is
equally pleasant. Won't you try that
too ?'
'No,* I guess not,' answered the
countrymen cooly. 'This has gone
about far enough, and I guess we'll
take you iu.'
'W-h-a-t!' exclaimed the suave gen
tleman aghast. 'What do you mean?'
'I mean that we are officers,' and
the two countrymen threw back their
coat lapels and let two shining badges
disclose their significance.
'Well, I'll swear,' exclaimed the
suave gentleman as he sank helplessly
into a chair.
In the room below the officers se
cured another prisoner, and captured
two 12-year-old girls who were in the
place. The two prisoners were Phil
ip Spieldock and Thomas Wilson. One
was held at the Tombs yesterday for
violation of the lottery laws, and the
other for permitting minors to fre
quent the museum. The two 12-year
old girls were Maggie Murphy,of No.
211 Elizabeth street, and Sarah Ball
ance, of No. 42 West Tenth street.
Officers Wilson and Stocking, of the
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Children, were the disguised coun
trymen. Business men in the vicini
ity have been trying for some time to
get evidence for an indictment against
the place. A warrant was issued for
the arrest of the proprietor, Nathan
Morris, and his counsel promised to
produce him when wanted— N. Y.

No Bunko bteerers-
A Deteotive Tells Why Philadelphia
18 Not Infested With Confidence
Men.
"Philadelphia is the only great city
in America, if not in the world, that
is absolutely free from bunko steerers
and confidence men, said Chief of De
tectives Kelly last night.
"How do I account tor their ab
sence ? Well, there are several ways
to account for it. I don't claim that
my force is wholly ie-pon9ible for their
absence,but to a large extent they mer
it the credit of keeping crooks of that
stripe away from the town. We watch
the reports of their operations in othei
cities r'osely and when a new nperatoi
turns tfp wb obtain a dweriyttou of fcer®
personally and a description of bis way
of working a victim. If possible we al
so get a photograph of him. In this
way the force is kept posted and in the
event of one of these operators striking
the town he is spotted immediately and
and either warned to leave or taken in
to custody. Thus far the Detective
Department is entitled to credit. The
main reason why Philadelphia is free
from confidence men, however, lies in
the fact that there is comparatively a
small floating population here and this
elem eut is the natural prey of the bun
ko man. Of course a great many mer
chants come here at certain seasons of
the year, but they are nearly all quiet
men. Then, again, Philadelphia is not
iu its full sense a seaport town, and the
duly arrival of Europe:) vessels, as iu
New York, furnish lots of gudgeons
for their hooks. The 'gawks' and
'suckers' of the world find their way to
New Yoik, and that is the greatest
field in this country for toe confidence
men. There is absolutely no opening
for them here. Last summer 'Little
Dan'and 'Little Lew,' t.vo of the
slickest bunkos iu the countiv, floated
over here froui New York when it got
pretty warm for them thero, but we
dropped to them immediately and they
left for Chicago on the next train.
Three more of the same ilk came here
i few weeks ago, but they left even be
fore they could look over the field."
