Yesierday afternoon before Harord coun-

OH several indictments removed from BaHi-

passing knowing them to be forged, four
checks on the Mechanics Bank of Balti-

described in the indictments were produced,
being signed "tor T. Woodysar
G. Hill"
1t was admitted by the counsel Of Mr..
Hill, that the checks were signed by him;
but it was commended, that they COULD not be
considered torgeries. as it was apparent on
the face of each check, that Hill signed
them as agent for WoOdyear; and il was
proved, by the testimony of the Bank off,

dorse notes discounted for the use of Wood

the same manner that the checks were sign-
ed; and was! considered in. the Bank, to
be his authorised agent. After hearing
the testimony and brief explanation by
the counsel, the jury without leaving the
box, gave general verdict Of NOT GUILTY.

The friends of Charles F. Mercer have,

The marshals of the eastern and western
districts of Pennsylvania have SO far COM
pleteG the fourth census or enumeration oil
the inhabitants of this state, as to have as
certained that the population of the eastern
district is 1868 souls, and that of the
western district ,l6i, making the total
number OF the inhabitants of Pennsylvania,
in 1920, one million forty-siz thousand eight
hundred and tour'y four. In 1910, the
population OF the state was 8lO,O9l souls.
The increase has been about 29 per cent in
the last ten years, and there has been very
little difference between the increase in the
western and that in the eastern district.
Frank. Gaz.
Among the evidence the most conclusive
as TO the general hardness of the times may
be received the facts, established by official
returns, that in the year 1918, 81, l5S Je7per
children were born. 46,446 more deaths
occurred and $3.50 tsuer marriages took
place in Russia than in the preceding year.
Ii is probable that similar results would be
found in every country of Europe, and even
in the United States il similar statistical ia
bles could be referred TO. No fact connect
ed with the human family is more distinctly
or clearly ascertained than that war does
not diminish population but increases.
