It happened hap-pened In this way: " Mrs. Wooley has been much wor-riedior wor-riedior some, time past over th fact that at the time of the death of her husband, there was owing to him various vari-ous sums f money aggregating about 1400, and, this niofloy is still owing. Mrs. Wooley wanted her money, and -she-tante dit bad enough to take any legitimate means for Its collection which offered promise of success,' and so. when a Gypsy woman with a good line of taik.' came along, she fell a victim to ha w iles of the dealer in futures to the extent named. - It Was 8o Easy. - The Gypsy first learned, through her solicitation for buslneai,, that Mrs. Wooley had a five dollar gold piece In the house, and it was natural, while the subject of money' was under d!s-cusston d!s-cusston that she should 'earn About the ouU landing money, and Mrs. Wool-ey's Wool-ey's ardent desire to collect the same. The rest was easy. .' The dark woman with the itching sensation in the palm of her right hand, w.ho was probably the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter, born in a graveyard at midnight, and possessed pos-sessed of a rabbit's foot, persuaded her credulous victim to hand over the five-dollar five-dollar piece, as a sort of charm with which to work on things psychic, and after this had been done, and the right kind of talk passed out for a few days, about the power of the mysterious myste-rious dealer In things occult, to work on the minds of the slow debtor, It waa no great accomplishment to per susde Mrs, Woolley iff draw ' f 50 from The 10 was to be placed 1a her pil low-slip, where it was to remain for nine days.' and Its presence to be 'kept aa entire secret An Itching Palm. After the money had been drawn from the bank and brought borne, the Gypsy got a violent Itching of the palm, and It was discovered that the pillow slip wouldn t work. Tae money mon-ey must be placed la the pal a of the Gypsy to allay that Itcfa, or the powers of dark mystery wouki go out. oa a strike. Of course the ISO was to be returned after the magic nine days bad been passed, when the debtors were to faD over themselves to pay up, but la the meantime the scheme wouldn't work worth a cent If the matter were not kept a very eloee secret. As a matter, of course, now that the aloe days have passed, both tb gypsy and the f SO have vmalsaed atterly. and the worst of it I that the debtors are stin saowtag a remarkable relactasre about pyra that ll.K. not withstand isg a'l lb trouble aad expense of working oa their toisds through dark sad secret agencies.
