tionsly secured, which notes could be
purchased in bums of one hundred dol
lars and upwards at one half their lace
value. The swind'rr had indubitable
evidence of this fact, and intended him
self to invest if bis friend w.-uld do
likewise. To render the bait still more
alluring a genuine note, said to be one
of the " over-issue," was given the
friend to be tested at his nearest bank

employee was alleged to make Harris
borg bis headquarters, aud numerous

employee, his companion aloue superin

was invariably concluded but a few
minutes prior to tbe west-bound locai

deuouenirnt usually occurred aboard
the train when the parcel of supposed
money was opened aud found to contain
nothing but pieces ot newspaper cut to
tbe exact site of government bills.

by one the seats were resigned to them
nntiloue of the gc mlemeti and the China
man alone was seated. At last be too had
to succumb to a simpering school girl.
when he bolted nut of the car into the
street, exclaiming in a tone ot great
disgust. "Too tuuehee she."
