A man representing himself as Broth
sr employed at St. Mary's College, this
city, called on NJ. d. Smith, the baker, a
few days ago, and ordered him to send to
the College next day eight dozen cream
puffs and numb, of pies. The baker
thought nothing wrong of the order as
he had frequently on former occasions
filled such orders for the church, and as
the man had formerly been employed at
the college and had before left orders
with the baker to be filled, he asked no
questions. Later in the day the man
came back to the baker. and increased
the order for cream puffs, saying that he
did not think his first order would be
enough. At tho same time, he took a
check from his pocket and asked Mr..
Smith if he would cash 1t for him. The
check was from II. Kaiser and made
payable to Rev. Father Brick, St. Mary's
Church, for the sum of ten dollars, and
endorsed by Father Brick. Mr.. Smith did
not hesitate to cash the check, and said
he would have cashed it If ii had
been for$100 Nothing more was thought
ofthe affair until next day when the cream
pulls and plea were sent to the College,
when they we're returned to the baker
with the word that they were never or
dsred Mr.. Smith then Investigated the
affair. and found that the man was a
fraud and that the check was forgery.

NEW STORE UNDER THE
OPERA HOUSE.

Our boot and shoe trade is en-
couraging, and the indications are
that We will largely increase it over
last year. We deserve to, as our
stock was never better or cheaper.
You don't need to buy-we won't
ask you to do that-but you'll save
money if you come in and see what
good goods we are selling and how
little money we ask for them.
Everything in boys and mems boots
and shoes, both in leather and
rubber.
Mems hats. The new shapes in
dress hats for young men. and the
older men also, are in stock. You
can save 25cts. on the purchase of a
hat, and get the latest and best of US.
our stock of clothing was never
so large, and We shall make LOW
PRICES on it this season. This
means just as it reads. If you want
reliable goods at the lowest prices
you ever saw or heard of, come and
look at our stock. You will not 60
away disappointed.
Our own good make Of panta-
looms and shirts, made in our own
factory, not skimped in cutting or
sighted in making. None better
made in this country. This is the
decision OF those who are selling
them elsewhere.
In word, if there is anything
you want in the clothing or outfit
ting line, come to our new store
under the Opera House and we will
do you good.

The Prohibition movement has taken a
new turn in Georgia where the county local
option law has been in force for several
years. An act has just been signed by the
Governor to prevent the sale of liquor
within three miles Of any church or school
except in incorporated cities. As either
schools or churches now stand almost
every three miles, a1d as these will be put
up where there is vacancy, it would seem
