Keep Him from squealing.
Poor long whiskered Mike O'Marai He
is again in the tolls of the law. Yester-
day he went to Staten Island to put in
action the machinery he knows SO well,
to prevent the Grand Jury of
Richmond county finding an in
dictment against him for il
legal voting at the election recently
held there. His bondsman learned OF
his presence and had him taken to
Court, where he was surrendered.

sent word to his friends here of his en-
barrassing predicament. and then went
to Jail.

Island have determined to push O'Mara
to the wall for his audacious illegal vot-
ing. and that his bondsman, when he
heard this, feared Mike might not be
on hand when wanted and for that
reason surrendered him. A prominent
police official, speaking of O'Mara's
trouble, said this morning in a significant
prefer to have Mike safe on Staten Island
until these election trials are over in this
county"

Well, you know
The irrepressible Mike appeared on the
street again this afternoon. 1t was said
that Jimmy Hunt purchased piece of
property on Staten Island and became
Mixes bondsman. Mr.. Hunt could not
be found this afternoon.

BANK TRANSACTIONS.
President Answers an Important
Question.

President Answers an Important
Question.
The president of bank was asked this
question: Suppose give man check
on my bank for any sum of money. and
when the check is presented the paying
teller, not knowing the holder, certifies
the check; the holder gets it cashed out
side; in the course of time the check
reaches the bank upon which it is drawn:
in the meantime have learned that the
representations upon which | gave the
check were false and made for the pur-
pose of committing an illegal act; | have
notified the bank that such is the case.
When the check is presented is the bank
bound to pay it and am / the loser?"
The reply of the bank president is:-
"Yes; the bank must honor it own GER
tiication; inasmuch as the check was
certified on the fact that you had a bank
account where the check was presented
and that the signature of such check was
yours, you must lose. You have no re-
course unless YOU catch the fellow who
made the misrepresentation and that
doesn't always get the money. / think
such an act as the one of whicn you speak
is penitentiary offence. ~ Chicago

The police are investigating the firing

night before last. The fire broke out
late, and had the Fire Department been
two minutes slower in arriving upon the
scene it is thought that two persons, a
man and a woman, WHO occupied the
second story would have been burned TO
death, as both were asleep and knew
nothing of the fire until after it had been
partially extinguished.
Smiths actions during the fire aroused
suspicious He declared that he had 1920
hidden in certain place in the saloon, and
attempted to enter during the fire. He
was held back by several firemen. The
flames were extinguished and search
made for the money; it could not be
found.
Those engaged in making the investi-
cation are of opinion that no place where
money could have been hidden was so
destroyed as to obliterate traces of the
alleged treasure The police Will give no
particulars, not even as to insurance.
They say it is merely an investigation
which may possibly result in clearing
