A CARD l'UOM JUIMit; I2IVWHI.I.,
While still holding olllclal position I did
not deem It expedient to notice tho pub
lished statement to the effect that thero had
been a scheme on foot to procure the ap
pointment of G. E. Elwell as my successor
by Governor Pattison, but now that I am a
private citizen again after nearly twenty-
six years of public service, I deem it my
duty to retuto tho false allegation, which
has been repeated ngalu and again, not-
dthstandlng the published denial of my
son aud the conclusive certificate of the
Governor. The author or promulgator of
the report, impliedly nt least, charges tnc
with Borne secret nrraugement to rcsizn tho
ofllce of Judgo and procure tho appoint
ment of my son as my successor. The
thought f bo doing never entered my
mind. The subject of ids nppoiulment was
never mentioned by him to me nor by me
to him, nor any oue else. '1 ho allegation
that there was any thing of the kind is
utterly nnlruc, aud Its uujustlllable publl-
cation must have bceu prompted by unpro
voked malice.
Governor Pattlson's term of office expired
in less thau three months after my illucsB
became at all serious. My resignation in
that time had not been contemplated by me,
I received encouragement from medical
advisers as to my ultimate recovery and it
was not until my return from Florida last
Spring, where I had spent the winter seek.
ing health, not pleasure, that I becamo sat-
Isfled that my deftctive hearing required
my retirement from official life. At no
eclved my ofllce from a confiding people I
nevet had any other Intention than to sur-
render it again to them without an express
Ion of preference on my part in regard to
the succession. Any statement or lnslnu
allon to the contrary being wholly without
foundation in tact, I concludo must havo
been prompted by a malevolent disposition,

Green Goods Swindlers.
The "green goods" swindler Is at present
reaping a rich harvest, particularly in
Pennsylvania. The cntlro State has been
Hooded with circulars of tho most alluring
description, showing how fabulous sums
may be mado by dealing iu counterfeit
money. Nearly every day a fresh victim
comes to light. The police and govern
ment officials have been working hard to
stamp out this species of swindling, but
notwithstanding all their efforts thero are
mora "green goods" swindlers in tho conn
try to-day than has ever beforo been
known. Nearly everybody who reads tho
newspapers is familiar with tho methods
used by the "green goods" man, but there
aro countless thousands who do not read
the papers, and it is upon this class that
the clever swlndltr depends for his victims,
The "green goods" man has a formidable
rival. Ho is called tho "yellow goods"
man and bis modes of catching the unwary
Is precisely the same. The "yellow goods"
mau claims to sell gold coins which aro so
perfect that even tho most expert numis
matist cannot detect them from the genuine
coins of the realm. Of course tho "yellow
goods" man has no such coin, but be dls
plays to his victim a few genuino gold
pieces, and then sells him a package ot
worthless brass metal.
The counterfeit money swindlers aro the
hardest kind of "crooks" to catch. They
cover up their tracks so well mat tney
balllo tho shrewdest government agentt
Wliou they send their alluring circulars out
they always put an address where
'strictly confidential-' may bo sent It Is
safo to say that fully fifty out ot every one
hundred circulars that are sent out by
theso rascals aro promply handed over to
the authorities, yet notwithstanding tho fact
that tho circular bears an address to which
tho authorities frequently send decoy ans
wers tho swindlers invariably cscapo cap
ture.
How they escape detection is easily ex
plained; A 'yellow goods" circular, re-
celved by a prosperous farmer in Bucks
county, directed that an answer bo sent to
G. A. Gandy, at a certain address on East
Fortieth street, New York. The farmer,
who reads tho newspapers, lost no time lu
placing tho circular In the hands of a l'os
tal Inspector who went to tho address on
East Fortieth street,
He found that It was an oyster saloon,
kept by a man named Brlggs. He went In,
side and asked for Mr. Gandy and was told
that no such person lived there. The In.
spector asked Briggs if ho knew any one
by the namo of Gandy,
"Thero was a man came In hero a few
days ago who said his namo was Gandy,"
replied tho proprietor, "and asked me to
tako care ot any letters that might como for
him until ho called for them. I don't
know him and 1 never saw him beforo,
My customers frequently request mo to
tako caro ot letters for them, and I havo to
do It as a matter of accommodation."
The Inspector nbtalnod a description of
the man Gandy from Brlggs and watched
the place for over a week, hoping to catc'i
him when he called for his letters, but
Gandy never came. The Inspector soon
realized that the oyster dealer was either
lu league with the swindler or was the
swindler himself, but as thero was not tho
awiniller himself, but as thero was not tho
slightest way of proving this In tho eyes of
tho law he had to abandon tbo caso.
As a last resort decoy letters have been
sent, but they havo met with but littlo sue.
cess. Tbo swindlers receive so many an
swers to their glittering circulars from the
unsophisticated grangers that they uso tbo
greatest discrimination In selecting their
victims. They pay no attention to any
letter that looks at all suspicious, and they
throw away probably about nine-tenths of
the answers received by them.

Dr. W. W. SutlllT, of Ashury, departed
this life on Wednesday ot last week, lie
will not onlv bo missed liv his family but
by all his neighbors and many friends, no
was 49 years, 9 months nnd 23 days old
being born Sept, 80, 1833, nnd died July
SB, 1888. Ho leaves a widow and one son
to mourn his loss. Tho Doctor had every
thing around him to mako homo ilcslrablo
In life, lie had three largo German carp
ponds, well filled with fish. He was a mem
bcr of tho Baptist church. Tho funeral scr
vices were conducted by tho Ilov. Galoway
of llloomsburg, assisted by tho Hov. Horn
ng of Orangevllle, the M. E. minister
The funeral was largely attended. He was
a member of 1. O. 0. F. Mountain Lodge
No. 204 which attended and took part in
the services. Tho widow nnd son havo the
smypathy ot tho order.

i.cwiHMurK-chlcnKO Romance.
The story of a pretty littlo romance
comoi to us that for relief from the ordin
ary run of lovo nffairs and saccharlno cor
rcspondcncc connected therewith, takes
the prize. The gentleman connected with
tho affair Is Elmer llcitmcycr of Lcwlshurg,
and well known by tho young pcoplo ot
this place, having clerked at the Broadway
tlouse some lime ago. Tho story goes in
this style: Elmer was In love with a Chi
cago girl, and they "corresponded." But
the lovo makiug slopped many months
ago because the young man did not receive
an answer to his "last letter." Ho was
too high strung to ask an explanation,
Last week ho received tho answer to his
last letter, and a note of explanation accom
panlcd it. A commercial traveler, while
ridins on a Malno railroad, purchased a
magazine published in Chicago, and be
tween tho pages he discovered tho letter
addressed to Itcilmcycr. It was sewed
fast. It had a stamp upon it but no post
mark. Tho drummer was mystified and
upon reflection sent on tho letter as direct
ed. It seems that tho young woman work
cd In a bindery and that she had placed
the letter between the pages for safo keep
ing. Forgetting that she had not matlid It
she concluded that her lover had left her.
The correspondence has been resumed.
Milton EamomlsL
Mr. llcitmcycr, the hero of the above af
fair, resided for some time at this place as
clerk at the St. Elmo, nod made many
friends while here.

Charley Davidson, tho Cambra huckster
who loBt bis team n few weeks ago at Kings
ton by fire through tho burning of a hotel
stabler has bought another Of Alf McIIenry
and Is again at his business. Charley ha?
lost three horses within a year. Huckster
ing must bo a profitable business or such
losses would put a man under.
A party from this neighborhood, notab
ly old people, consisting of tho families of
John Asbclman, Wm. 11. Krickbaum
Judgo Krickbaum and nieces, Cornelius
Wblto and probably Revs. Boone nnd Mc
Closkcy, sought a mountain resort at or
near Kitchen's creek last Saturday. Old
people enjoy mountain retreats as well as
young people.
Oats harvest is tho next performance on
the farmers' programme of this season's
agricultural exhibition.
Reading the controversy in regard to the
Judgeship" between the Coi.umhian nnd
the Sentinel, Mrs. Splnnogle queried wheth
er the "fabrication, manufactured out of
the whole cloth," were jhnddy, or tho re
sult of high protection, or tariff reform.
After a moment's reflection Mr. Splnnogle
answered "yes."
Tho salo of personal property ,',last Thurs
day, by the administrators in the cstato of
William Belles, deceased, ot New Colum
bus, was largely attended and footed up
over $1400.
Last Thursday wo met for the first time
J. Jameson, son-in-law ol Hon. D. L.
Cbapln of New Columbus, whom we fouud
a brilliant politician, apt of illustrations In
favor of tariff reform. Some interesting
articles from bis pen have appeared in tho
Coldmuian heretofore.
Look out l'or Tliciu.
Many schemes aro ou foot to rob unsus
pecting farmers. Tho last one comes from
Western Pennsylvania. Henry Scbmautz
lives on a farm in Moon township, Beaver
county, and is out $237. The other day
two men stopped at Ms houso and told him
they would like to test his lightning rod.
He permitted them to do so, and they pro
nounced It "no good." They said they
wanted to advertise their rod in that sect
ion and would put ono up tor him free of
chargo If ho would pay for tho post which
went into the ground
He agiecd aud
signed what ho supposed to be an agree,
ment to that effect. Next morning bright
and early the men were on hand, tore
down the old rod and put up a new one.
Now ho discovers very unpleasantly that
he had signed a note for $337 and tho vist
tors had discounted it at a bank,

with fair prospect of winning. Let mo say
to tho voters, voto for the man you are sat
isfied Is tho best flttcd to fill the office
aspired to, and who 111 work for tho best
Interest and goad of the people. And In
making up your minds, other things being
equal, determine to not voto for candidates
who havo been honored with two or moro
terms of paying ofH'-c, nnd who havo be
come rich at the expense of tho public)
and don't forget that Blo.imsburgcrs now
hold six gonl paying county offices, with
certainty of getting the Dlst Atty. and
Judgeship a well salaried ofllco for about
every fifty voters. It strikes mo that the
8500 voters who live In tho county outside
of Bloomsburg are entitled to some share
In serving tho people when they wish to.
Bloomsburg alwnys votes for Bloomsburg-
crs nnd there Is a scheme now on foot to
elect both Krickbaum and Zarr, who aro
next door neighbors and representatives of
tho two "Boss cliques." Pcoplo who live
on tho "bouIIi side," should recollect that
If Ihey voto for.Zarr or Krickbaum tlicy hiu
a great risk of having their own candidates
beaten. Thero is no law, only log rolling
custom, that gives ono representative to
each side of the river. Let the people who
live in the villages and on farms mako up
their mind ail of it to vote only for candi
dates who live out ot Bloomsburg and they
will soon break up tho pernicious "Boss
cliques" at tho county scat. Another batch
of reports has just reached me.

Well, I have head ot men being left be.

well established that my opponents have a
much greater experience and more intimate
acquaintance with drinks whoso names end

Tiinm. "That I am poor." True again,
but that used to be "high, low, jack, game
and mm" in tho days of our grandfathers,
True, I can neither buy votes directly, leave
big money for dinners, whiskey or cigars.
