Adam Hockey, a' lithographer, was the
victim of a clever swindle by one pretend
ing to be a clairvoyant, nnd lost $472 by
confiding too much In the powers of magic
of tho stranger, Rockcy became acquainted
with the pretended clalrvoynnl, who gave
the name of C. M. Hates, and the latter ex
plained how he was able to double the
nmount of money In a wallet by making
cerlnln mysterious pnescs nnd motions.
Rockcy took kindly to the magic at onco.
Ho made a trial' with a half dollar. Ths
clairvoyant made thn necessary pacsei and
then told his victim that he must not
open the book until tho ne,t day. Direc
tions were followed nnd the money was
found to be doubled. The trick wns tiled
with a $S bill and n $10 bill, nnd It worked.
Then Rockey, who had saved up $475
with which to mako a start on buying a
home, saw grei.t possibilities In the mys
terious power of the clairvoyant nnd he
took his entire savings to be doubled. Tho
trick was dono on Sunday and the clair
voyant gave instructions to his victim not
to open the pocketbook until Wednesday.
Last night Rockey became overanxious lo
see his money and opened the wallet, only
to find It empty. Ho complained lo the
police toriny, but Rates cannot bo found
and the $175 went with him.
