et,, SWINDLEIt GETS IIItT91 I 1 INTO TIi0Ui3LLr
FOR DOING SO—LONDON TOO,0UTirl TO I3N
CAUGHT.
As: stated in a Toronto despatch of.
Wednesday a mau who gave the name
qf " F.C. Shaw, a aeklool teacher in
Aurora" was arrested in Toronto Post
Ufaeo on .a charge of obtainiag money
finder false preteneos. The story of
the crimp dates back about a :Month.
At the time there appeared in several
qf the newspapers a seductive advortis
ment which read as follow° :.
WANTED—Two young lien. to ao-
gonapauy agentleman,going.on a -Euro-
pean trip.. Must be fairly, e.iuoated
and furnish satisfaotery testiunouials of
Moral ollareoter. A. liberal salary and
expenses will bo paid. Apply until the
30th inst., to II. 1111 DLwEzr, NSW -
market, 0it.
The same advert'tsment appeared in
00l1 other papers with the name of R.
W. Decker, instead of H. M. Dewett.
To such an nclvertisment'it is not to be
wondered that many answers were sent.
To each answer, a reply was promptly
=ailed, stinting that the application was
aooepted. The naive of the vessel and
time of sailingwere also given and the
Terson applying was told to be at New-
market on such"a date. Each appli•
cant was adrrionislred pot to break their
engagement, because the mission was a
very important one. The salary offer-
ed Was $700 and till expenses. Every-
-thing up to this point seemed reason-
able enough, but at the close of the
letter the writer tells the applicant that
to prove his good faith he must forward
$10. In the latter, bait the alleged
fraud will lie. Of course,the advertiser
never intended to go to Europe or any
other plane in particular. As may be
supposed, many persons saw and ans-
wered the advertisreept.
A co'rple of, yowls men. . of L fable,
ono in L•iudoi1 South,being desirous
of i;btaining a o!leap excursion over the
water wrote to the address named bat,
on receiving the answer, as above stat•
ed, they saw through the swindle at
ones and refused to bite.
Aerating wan from St. Thmmaj also
made up his mind to go, and, was in-
formed that Air. Decker, the advertis-
er's secretary, would be at Woodstock
on the 7'h of April to meet him, but i1(
the meantime he was rsgnt:sted to for-
ward his $10 to Toronto. The young
man referred to wont to. Londrin. on
NVednesday, and showed the letter to
the Chief of Police and was informed
that the whole affair was a swindle.
Slime of the replies of Decker or De-
wett were sent to the. Chit f of Police,
'i'oroutn. The case was Riven into the
Lands of the detectives, and for the
past two weeks the Toronto Post Ofhoe
has been watched by a constable dress-
ed in plain clothes. The °Meets yeti -
epee were rewarded Wednesday rn;nrn-
ing, as has been already stated., The
prieoner is supposed • to be the same
preen who last winter,resided at the
Windsor Hotel, Montreal,. and carried
on a similaroorresnondence, and .not
iu vain, as a number ofyoung -men
who were duped could testify. ln•. the
Diuntreal swindles the plan was to ado
vertiae for a gr tduete of . a college to
net as tater to go r•,n a European . trip.
The ten teller guaranteewas then;ask-
ed for in each ease,j uyt as in tiro,.. pre •

HOW TLEE RUSSIANS. KEEP I
The linssians have a great. knack•. of
rnaleing their Winter pleasant. You
feel nothing of the cold in those tiahtly-
bnilt houses, where all the windows
are double, and where the rooms are
kept warm be big stoves hidden in the
walls. There is no damp in aRussien
house, and the inmates inay dress 11'1 -
doors .in the lighest;garbs, tshich cone
tract oddly with the mass of furs and.
enbf's which they don when going out.
A t:Isla/1 cart afford to ran no ri;lt of'
exposure when lie`leaves tris hoarse for n
walk or' drive. I -Io covers his head and
ears wiih n fur bonnet, his feetand legs
with felt boots lined with wool or fur,
which are drawn on over the ordinary
boots and trousers, and reach up to the
knees; he next eloaks himself in an am,•
pie top coat with fur collar, lining and
miff,; and he, buries his hands in a pair.
of ti'nlerloss gloves of seal or bear -skin.

in ltussiau citieswallclrg is just pos.
eiblefor 'men during Winter, but hardly
is) for ladies. rIthe womenof the lower
order wear knee.boots; those of the
store -peeping alas seldom' venture out
at
all;those of the aristocracy go out
sleighs, TI1eso sleighs are lty no
means pleasant for nervous people, for
.he Kalmuck coachman drives them at
a terrific pi ne that they frequently cap •
size; but, persons nob destitute of thele
find their motion most enjoyable. It.
must be lidded that to bo spelled out of
a Russian sleigh is tantamount only to
getting a rough tumble on a soft mat-
tress far the veary.thiolc 'far in which'
the victim is sure to be wrapped will
be enough to break the.fall. .
The brasses and-hovete of the Russian
working °lases are as well warmed as
tliare of the aristocracy. Ac stove is
always the principal iteni. of furniture
in. thein, anti- these contrivances are
1'sed-to sleop on as well as to cook in.
The mujiclr, having no bed, curies him -
Reif up on his stove at his time for go.
ing to rest.; sometimes he may be found
creeping right into the stove, and on•
joving the delights of a good vapor
hath.. The amount of heat which a
'Russian will stand is amazing, and his
carelessness in facing the cold afterward
not less so,
A CONDUCTOR WHO BACKED.

Before the train lett `Bay City, yes-

*early six feet tall,,and having a com-
plexion like a fresh -turned brick, enter-

its big as a yearling calf., Baying pur-
oh,>•sed a ticket, the woman stood be-
side the train until the conductor clone
along, when she led off with
'You have been pointed out to me as
