t ~. -ïide Story 0f Great Swindler Miany peopfle will say tliey kDiow ail about Horaflo Bottom- ],-y, the arch swindler who ruin- cd fhousends. But 1 guerantee they don't know my story, lcarn- ed li Paris when the Crownws prcparing ifs case ageinst hlmn. 1 learned things 'chat did not cem)Ie out at Bottomiey's trial, nmd fhey conivinced me thaut if epver tiiere was a case thet proved moncy wasn'. cveryfhing, that case was flie life and mr iparticuiarly fhe deaf b of Horaftie Botfoiey. To evadle the gambliug laws of Britain, Bottomley had beeri running bis Derby sweepstake in g Swiss cify, and on bis return to London lic broke bis journiey li Paris and eutercd the Grand HTotel, where I was drinking a nightcap with flie editor and au- thor, Frank Harris. Bottomliey came in wearinga top liat and on aid-f ashioued -frock coat. He stoppcd by our table, and Harris said: "Wliere have you corne from, Bot tom- ley ?" Horaflo ens-wered: 've jusf got in from Lausanne, Frank, wbere 1 cleered S-20,000 with mny sweepstake." "Thaf's a lot of mioney," said H1arris, "but, just fhiuk how mucli more you miglit have if you ran these thiugs lioncstly. Aftter ail, you know. Boftomnley, honesty is the best policy!" "Yes," rnused Botfoiey, if is, 3f you can afferd it." Thet sar- dfonic quip was, 1 fhink, the key te the puzzle of Horatie Boftom- lcy's lite, Hle made up bis mind le could neyer effordl to be wbTolly honesf. Botfomley wes boru lu 1860 in Hackney, London, a district for which he sat later as a member of Parliamient. His feflier was 0. t1ailor's cutter, but tlie famnily livcd on tlie border-Uine of pev- erty and at an early age Horeflo wats admiflted f0 a Birmingham orphanage. Despife lis limited education,1 lic wvas a boru orator and hie edeveloped a wondcrful knowl-. edge efthfle law. Had lie been an honest man instead of a rogue there was really ne iit te flie heiglfs lie miglit have attaincd. During the first world war BGotternlcy editor and prop- rietor of a' wveekly paper fIat was mudli read by flic Amy af the Front in France. Boftornley used te go te France to talc ote lien in their rcst billets. And during a peried *tter the baffle of Passehendacle, whcn niat fers were flot going- wel Rd there waz a certain un-. rest in France, Mr. Lloyd George eonsidered quite seriousiy asi-. mg Horaflo Bottemnley to b,-. qonme a miember of flie Cabinet! Bottornley would certainly have accepted -for wliat hie exould have nmade &o0f it, bc- cause money was his only inter-. est, and bis knowledge of h0W to acquire if could well have mnade hlm a muiti-.mllionaire ïf ,nly he could have kept te fIe pafli of honesfy, writes Hlarry J. Grteenwell in "Tit-.Bits," Here are some defails of liera- fie Botfoiey's erooked dealînge which camne to my knewliedge wheu the Crown was preparii the case fIat evenituhlly Sent Botfornley f0 prison for seven yers. xI. is weekly paper le rein x eompcfitton.

Theu take thîs very cruel swul.There was a9 respect- able private bank in London called Farrow's Bank. Bottomn- ley inveigled Farrow and other directors into his nefarious fi-. nancial scliemes, andl, as a result, Farrow and other directors 0f. the bank went to prison, but not before thie bank ha.d been used in what becamiýe the great Derby swindle. In Paris Bottomley ran a sort of banik mauaged by an English- mnan who had previously been emrployed by a famnou.5 tourist agency and had left them under a cleud; if was that type of man that Eftomnley preferred toe cm- piey. The "bau-k" i~ Pariss used f0 paýy ouf pnizes in Bottomnley'-e "Victory Bonds" wherein flie theiI so-called -p r i z e sý were worthless Poiýsh bonds, Boftomrley asked his Paris mnager to find im an crook, French for preference, who eould take part in bis proposed. Derby Sweepstake swiindle. In Marseilles, flic Paris mian- ager found the type of man for wlomn he was looking. The man had a police record, but what was important f0 Boftomnley, lie had a bllnd mother and if was a;he whe wasTb- declared the win- ner of the D erby sweepstake, which was said to have won hier thousands of peunds. The crook brougît lis blind mother to London where she was t.0 receive her prize money at Farrow's- bank. The meoney was- handed to the crook and wp,- supposed te be li iltes of on-e hunidred pounds eaeli, and thesei the rogue handed over f0li mnothler. But instead of being hiundrecl-pound no-tes, fhey wcerte llve-pou.nd notes!
