A Tricky Tramp

Yesterday evening, during the alb.
sence OF Mr. ]. Il. Thomas from his
home near the fair grounds, a tramp
approached the house and handed his
little son ten dollar bill, telling him
to ask his mother to change 1t for him.
Mrs. Thomas discovered at glance
that the bill was base counterfeit,
and sent 1t back to him, when he took
his leave, doubtless to try the same
game on some one less doubtful Of his
currency.
