AN ARISTOCRATIC FORGER
Jos. Martinez of a New Mexican F.
F. v. Is in the County Jail.
He Signs sswarren Live Stock Com
pany" to His Checks. Utters Them.
HI Young Man Has Had h Same
Sort of Trouble Before.

Joseph G. Martinez, son of one Of
New Mexico's foremost citizens is in the
county Jail on the charge of forgery, with
every probability that he will be convicted
and sen to the penitentiary.
The bogus instrument was a Warren
Live Stock company check for sl6S and
was uttered yesterday. Frank Anderson,
of the Chicago saloon, advanced $50 on
the worthless paper. The victim became
suspicious and presented the check at the
office of the company here. 1t was at
once pronounced a forgery and constable
Smith corralled Martinez at the so
licitation of Anderson. The appear
ance Of the order on the bank should have
condemned it, but Martinez has a win
ming way that dispels thoughts of crooked
ness. The check number was in tour
figures and it is signed simply Warren
Live Stock Company"
When arrested Martinez had s42. so
Martinez seems to be thorough scamp.
The writer is cognizant of two similar es-
capades during his residence of a year and
a half in this section. Both times the
matter was kept quiet on promises of re-
formation and PREPARATION, and out of re-
gard for his family, the culprlt making a
strong plea IN this direction. 1t is evil
dent that he is incorrigible.
About eighteen months ago Martinez
was taken from this place to Boulder, and
then sent to the Colorado state peniten-
tisry for a year for forgery. Ten days
ago he realized about 5000 on a bogus
check of the Warren Live Stock company.
The victim Is 6 man who soon after real
lied hat he should have known better,
but who declined to prosecute, being
charitable and accomplishing.
The forger was schooled at Notre Dame
and st. Louis, and is well educated. be-
sides being naturally bright. Old Senior
Martinez is New Mexico's ~tavorite son.
He was candidate for delegate to congress
against Stephen B. Elkins and was
elected, but counted out. Martinez had a
good majority until the stuffed boxes ar
rived from Elkins' sheep ranches.

A JAY
The Adventures in Laramie County of
Fly Copper

A fly detective has lately dashed ACROSS
the local horizon. His name was Schmidt
and he came to the county with the
ayowed intention Of trapping all the cat
tie thieves popularity supposed to flourish
in this section, and add wealth to glory
by landing a few of the 81 1000 standing
rewards for the apprehension OF rustlers.
Schmidt selected the Horseshoe valley
as his field. He appeared as a sewing
machine agent. He protested love for
the country and admiration for the pretty
daughter of a ~ranchman and secured
quarters with the family. Schmidt said
here that he was engaged to the young
lady and this may be news to her.
Two bullocks were missed, and when
given this tip Schmidt located the hides
and in his mind placed the pelts of the
thieves in his back yard collection Of tro-
phies. He came to town with the damn.
ing evidence, and while the hides were be-
ing cleansed established himself in the
West end and bought wine four bottles at
a clip.
When the tangible testimony became
fitted for official society a post mortem
was held with Sheriff Martin, Deputy
Thomasson, r. f. Glover and a few more
eminent experts on the board. The hide:
were cowskins and devoid of brands OIL
marks, and the combination shattered.
Schmidt stampeded. To get a board
account allowed he had the bill made out
by a member of the ranch family who was
in town. He was to apply this money on
a grocery account. He forgot to do it.
Schmidt had borrowed the watch from
his prospective brother in law and took ii
along as a souvenir. A warrant for hi:
arrest has been issued.

MOUNTAIN AND PLAINS.
Scheme for the Formation of a Fine
Base Ball League.

Local base ball enthusiasts have Matched
a grand scheme for the formation of a
league to include Cheyenne. Fruition OF
the plan will insure this city a creditable
team for the season and a big advertise
ment. Here are the details:
The Mountain and Plains league is TO
be organized. Laramie, Cheyenne, Gree
ley, Denver, Golden and Boulder will be
represented, making a short circle with a
handle and a tangent. The forfeit will
be 800 each, the purse to go to the win
ming team. Denver's club will be
one of the commercial league mines,
and no professionals will be allowed il
the new association. The guarantee will
be $40 ard hotel expenses to visiting
teams, and this alone is ample for rail
way fare. Fort Collins, Erie and Lewis,
town will be exhibition towns.
The mountain and plains towns are all
on the Union Pacific, and a very low rate
could be secured. 1t is only $50 miles be.
tween the most widely separated points.
The scheme seems feasible, has been re-
ceived with favor wherever preached and
can be made a go. The thing TO be done
now is to have a good, live man make the
circuit and interest the proper people in
each town.
