Corner loafing has grown to bo one of
tho greatest nuisances of this town. It is
bad enough every night, but Sunday nights
aro especially selected by certain parties of
boys nnd young men to render themselves
obnoxious. The corner at the First Nation
al Bank, the corners of Third nnd Market
streets, and In front of the Mcthoilist
church aro the chief places where crowds
congregate- every Sunday night. They
mnke the pavement filthy with tobacco
juice, and the fact that ladies are passing
by, does not deter them from the uso of
profane and ob3cno language. This thing
has become so unpleasant that a number of
residents of Market street have clubbed to
gether to suppress it by the enforcement of
tho law. Under a town ordinance such
corner loafing is punishable by a fine of
two dollars and costs, for ci ch offense.

The latest ot all the swindles that has
been worked so successfully on the farmers
In tho eastern part of Pennsylvania for tho
past two or three years is the "damaged
bank-note game." Jacob Snyder, of Bucks
county, Is n conspicuous instance of tho
gullibility of a large class of citizens. Two
strange men called at his farm aud told
htm in confldenco that there was in tho sub
treasury at Philadelphia $1,200 in damaged
bank notos that he couU buy for $500.
Snyder lacked $300 of ttiat amount at hand
but borrowed tho necessary balance of a
neighbor.
The generous strangers told the farmer
his money must ba wrapped up In half a
dozen packages, and that they would go to
Philadelphia, get tho $1,200, and return
with t and recclvo his $500 In exchange
for It. Tho money was done up as suggest
ed, the two swindlers doing- the work In
tho farmer's kitchen, and no one but they
and the farm:s being present. When the
packuges were completed nnd lay on the
table, ono ot the men, who was looking
out of the window, suddenly exclaimed,
"Great heavens, Mr. Snyder, I believe your
barn Is on fire I" The farmer and ono of
tho swindlers rushed out, and tho other
man followed more at his leisure. The
alarm proved to bo a fahe one, nnd the
two returned to tho kitchen. Tho pack,
ages wero Mill on llio table. Tho two men
soon took their leave, and the next day tho
farmer went to tho place where ho was to
meet them, with $1,200 in damaged money,
hut they failed to keep their appointmcut.
On returning homo Snyder opened one of
the packages, and found nothing In It but
brown paper. Tho other packages wero
the same.
Henry Swnrtley lost $100 by tho samo
swindle, and n Cumberland county farmer
is reported to have contributed $1,000 to
the samo operators.

The Union Veteran Legion Is composed
of Union soldiers who volunteero d befor
July 1, 1803, for thrco years and served at
least two years unless discharged for
wounds, or who volunteered for two years
beforo July 23 1801, and served their lull
time unless discharged for wounds, The
object Is to bring into closer relations ami
fraternal comradeship those who went into
tho war from patriotism, uninfluenced by
drafts or bounties, and who faithfully per
formed their part in suppressing tlto rebel
lion. The Indications aro that the encamp.
ment at Bloomshurg will bo a very success
iui one, as llio members nre among our
best citizens, and while tho number eligible
is not largo compared to tho many who
performed their work in the preservation
of the Union, yet It is most likely that every
worthy soldier who is eligible will soon bo
enrolled in tho ranks of the organization.
Their meetings will bo held al Odd Fel

AN ATTEMPT TO l'LAY IT ON ONE OF StJNlUJUY'S
MOST KESl'EOrEU CITIZENS.
There was a bold attempt made to play
tho bunco gamo on one of our most highly
respected and old citizens during thu lie
gatta, the details of which have just been
ma le public. Tho reason it was kept such
a profound secret was that tho samo gang
mado nn attempt to fleece a gentleman in
West Philadelphia out ot $2700 thu day
previous and succeeded in obtaining part
of tho boodle, nd it was thought that their
work here might lead to their detection. On
tho afternoon previous to the Regatta H. B.
Masser a former tdltor of the Sunbury
American, was standing on the steps.of his
residence on Chestnut street, when ho was
accosted by a stylishly-dressed and very
polite young man, who stated that ho would
like a fow minutes' cnnyersatlon with him.
Mr. Masser answered certainly, and Invited
his visitor into the home. The stranger
introduced himself as tho son of Mr. Mas
ser's old friend, W. C. Lawson, Esq., of
Milton, nnd stated that his father had re.
quested him to call and pay his respects
1 hut he was introducing a new and re
vised history of tho Stato of Pennsylvania
aud-he desired Mr. Masser to go with him
and cxnmino the work, and that If it was
what he assured him it was, he wanted Mr.
Masser's recommendation, and be would
be presented with a copy freo of charge.
Mr. Masser consented, and the strunger
staled that he had the books at a certain
houso on Front street and they would walk
down and cxamluo ttiem. The stranger
took Air. Masser to tho house of Joseph
Helm, on tho corner of Walnut, and Front,
and ushered him into tho front room. At
a table m the middlo of the room sat a
nil 'Idle-aged, handsomely-dressed man, who
was introduced to Mr. Masser, and lie was
luvitcd to tako a chair. The man at the
table explained that the box containing the
books wus at the freight olllcc, but ho bad
sent for them some time before und they
rwrmTtHHbero in a veiy few mhutes. Tho
time was passed iu pleasant conversation
when the man nt the table drew out a puck
of cards and proposed a game, at tho same
tlmo lnying a largo amount of money on
tho tablo. Mr. Masser at once realized he
was In the hands of a gang ot sharpers,
aud Insisted upon goiug. Thu men tried
to get him to stay, but he persisted and
succeeded In getting out of the house.
short time afterwards the two men left tho
house. They had rented the room of Mr,
Helm for a dollar u day, saying that they
proposed to use it during tho Regatta, but
gave no clew to what they proposed to uso
It for, As soon as Mr. Masser left thoy
paid for ono day and like tho Arab folded
up their tents and quietly stole away. Mr.
Musser had some trouble In locating tho
houso, but that evening iu company with
Mr. Normal Englo they Investigated the
matter and found tho gang had gone.
