Editors as Easy Marks.
There Is no reason why a man po-
segued of a typewriter and the abil-
ity to operate It tthould bo out of
work In this city. Old magazines
may he purchased In any second hand
hook shop stories may lie copied with
no mental exertion oxcept to change
names anil titles nnd tho "easy
marks" who preside over tho edito-
rial departments of some or tho New
York magazines will do the rest.
I Those who read the current porlodl-
ialh ae aware that thla method of
earn ng a livelihood Is extensively
IPianlhed else the editors themselves
j aie an ant fakirs.
' Numerous examples of literary pi-
rac nre contained. In the recent mini-
l hers of W) pillar magazines. Ono of
i the Shorty McCabe" stories by Se-
I wall Ford Is reprinted verbatim In
j a popular periodical with tho author-
iHli.p attributed to ono Swett. Anoth-
er magazine has an urtl.ilo purixirtlng
to have been written by n noted war
i cot respondent which Is In large part
i an uucredtted translation of a book
Itliy a Spanish American writer.  A
jm.igulno which makes a specialty of
humorous short stories alleged to he
original has In the last few months
I puiiilslied many yarns that wore prob-
a.)ly familiar to Adam. ICngllsh mag-
azines with little or no circulation In
the I'nlted States afford a fruitful
Held for the literary buccaneer. Scon
of translations from French German
and other Kuropeau magazines sllght-
l changed to suit the American taste
are annually served up In the Amer-
ican magazines. To the man or wom-
an possessed of a little Ingenuity and
a minimum of honesty the o.-cupa-tlon
of literary pirate should be bJtn
pleasant and profitable.
Cured but Ungrateful.
I Miss Frances Wynne of this city Is
a shop girl healthy and withal beau-
1 1 1 Till. Ouo morning about a year ago
I she wont to tho department storo
wnere sue was employed and was
giected with sneers grins and giggles
on the part of her companions. The
treason for ithoso manifestations of
levity was supplied by a sympathetic
Irlend in a newspaper advertisement
Illustrated with a picture of tho btau-
teous Miss Wynne. Heading this ad-
vertisement the Talr shop girl dlscov-
c ed to her horror that she had been
suffering with clivers pains aches and
maladies and that she had been Jerk-
ed from the Jaws of Jeopardy and an
untimely grave by tho medicine man-
uractuied by a feminine philanthro-
pic of Lynn Mass.
So it came irbout that Miss Wynno
appeared In tho I'nlted States circuit
c nu t ask.ng for tlu.000 as a salve
for the mental anguish and nun till-
cation she had endured. Sho doeJar-
cd that she had never suffered from
the pains nnd aches described In tho
Usiimoiilal that sho had never taken
the vegetable comiKiuud of tho fem-
inine phllanlhioplst and that her pic-
ture had been obtained by false pre-
Ruses. Tho Jury decided after hear-
ing r II the evidence that IG.UOO would
cover tho damages.
