Just now notices of marriages that have
never taken place are being mailed to the
editors of different papers, This busintes
nf forging a man's name is a serious thing,
and should not be tampered with ; neither
should a marriage notice be sent to an
office for publication without the bona fide
signature of some person who knows that
the contents of the notice are true. It is
a foolish triple and sometimes causes con-
siderable annoyance ; in fact it might be
the means of upsetting what might other-
wiee lead to a match.
An enterprise of much magnitude and
yet one that is seldom mentioned is the;

rented a draft on the Traders' Nation-
al Bank of Spokane Falls for $2,500.
He told the cashier that to save the
trouble of identification lie had his
signature pent over from the Butte
bank. The cashier found the signa-
ture all right and referred to the
record 'where he found the same sig-
nature in connection with some busi-
ness done in November, when Jones
had drafts cashed for several large
amounts. The clothier at once cash-
ed the draft on Jonas' request, retain.
ing $900 to pay for the lot on preeen-
lotion of the deed and paying Jones
$1,000 in cash. Jones left the town
that day And has not been heard of
since. The next day the seller of the
lot called all the bank, deposited the
deed and received $900. Jones hav-
ing previously requested the cashier
ta hold the dead until he called for it.
Yesterday the hank received notice
from its Spokane Falls exohange.that
the draft in question was originally
made out for $25; and was raised to
$2,500. It is barely possible that
Jones may be innocent, but the pre-
sumption is that he is a very slick
swindler. The offioials have tele.
graphed for his arrest, but so far no
clue has been obtained. Meantime
