WORKS OUT A NOVEL SCHEME
After lining bla pockets with kale,
at the expense of Omaha merchants
and twelve or mors local students.
"Mr. Fisher," who recently occupied
room 316 of the Brandeis Theater
building, has left "our midst." leav
ing woe and debts in his wake.
A little orer two weeks ago "Mr.
Fisher" rented rooms In the above-
mentioned building and advertised
for solicitors, preferably boys or
young men.
He received the iteual number of ap
plicants, who upon being ushered Into
"Mr. Fisher's" presence, would have to
wait' till that gentleman had finished,
the morning paper and adjusted bis dia
monds. 1'nld at Knd of Month.
It was then revealed to the duly Im
pressed applicant that he was to solicit
orders for the White Own Ptal com
pany of St Louis, whose product Is seals
for mason jars. Kach evening he was
to turn (his orders In to "Mr, Fisher,"
and at the end of the month he would
be remunerated at the rate of 12 a day.
After worn In- for enme time, the
twelve or mon solicitors, ranging be-
1 years of axe, grew eus-
picioua of their hosa and consulted an
attorney In the same building, lie In
structed several of the lads to trail "Mr.
Fisher" and find out where he kept his
stock, and then the articles would be at
tached. But, try as they might, no re
sults were forthcoming. "Mr. Klsher"
always did his own delivering the boys
merely bringing In the orders.
latter could gat any cash frcm "Mr.
Fljlier."
"Mr. Fisher," when approached. stated
that the crew managers had no right to
lire anyone. Nevertheless the lads In
sisted upon being fired and backed by
big brothers and fathers, succecdod In
being partially paid. Another youth
collected iJ from his orders, which he
refused to turn in to "Mr. Flatier."
This went en until "Mr. Fisher" learned
that through an oversight he had taken
offices In the same building with the
legitimate agent of the White Crtrwn
Peal company.
"Mr. Fisher" then disappeared. His
solicitors are out. each on, between
IIS and J0, whllo numerous grocers are
waiting checka from "L. Frank" that
will never come.
Oat Her Hoard Bill.
Also a woman who conducts a hoard
ing house at Twenty-ftfth and Dodge
streets, where "Mr. Klsher" lived, with
his mother, "Mia. Simpson." Is malting
for the payment of a bonrd bill.
In the meanwhile his employes have
been vainly waiting about the nrnmlets
Theater building for his return. Tues
day they thotwrht they saw him going
down the stairs. It waa a case of mis
taken Identity, and a lucky thing for the
mnn who turned at their approach.
The Omaha police have been search
ing In vain for any trace of the roan
who has absolutely disappeared, although
it was believed this morning that they
had secured trace of former operations
In other cities. (
