A SMOOTH FORGERY.
A Stranger Uses Rev. G. I. Mills sigma
ture to Secure 1915 From The
First National Bank

Rev. G. I. Mills, of the Methodist
church, was approached the other evening
i by stranger who introduced himself as
a civil engineer awaiting the return home
of Surveyor General Hobart who was to
give him employment, he said, and he
wanted to know OF Mr.. Mills if be
couldn't store his trunk in the lumber
room at the church parsonage for time.
Mr.. Mills was pleased to do the stranger
a service, and handed him his card, when
the fellow left, ostensibly to secure his
trunk and take it to the parsonage. Now
1t 30 happened that the script type with
which Mr.. Mills name was printed on
the card was fashioned identcally after
his signature. The following day strang-
er presented himself at the First National
bank and handed to Assistant Cashier
Howard Vaughn one of the banks printed
checks signed by James M. Thompson,
drawn in favor of Chas. Hunton and en-.
dorsed by &c. |. Mills" The check was
duly cashed although Mr.. Mills was the
only party to the transaction recognized
by the bank. 1t turns out now that the
rascal had forged Mr.. Mills name. The
forgery was skillfully executed, the en-
dorsement on the note being an excellent
fac simlle ofthe minister's hand writing.
Mr.. Mills is now at Las Vegas attending
the Methodist conference and an accurate
description of the forger can not be OBJ
tanned.

SATURDAY SMALL TALK
The Man From Santa Fe.

A merchant big, from santa Fe,
Who ne'er was here before,
Twas Whispered had arrived In town
To buy his winters store.
The drummers went in quest of him,
But no one knew the man,
So one, more "cheeky" than the rest
Proceeded on this plan
At every house h'd to the clerk
Say "Mr., will you tell
If Mr. Smith, of Santa Fe,
Now Atops at this hotel?"
In three of the best hustelries
This question brought a nay,
But in the fourth, how fortunate!
The clerk responded, yea
ayes, Mr.. Smith came in tonight,
He sits right over there
And pointed out a da1k-eyed man
P,rched in an easy chair.
"I've beat the DO. g." The drummer said
Unto himself, "thst's he
I've found him now 1'll hold him tight,s
This Smith, from santa Fe."

audience took part. Money was refunded at
the boX-offce.
Few dramatic companies have either the time
OF desire to do anything outside their own work.
With Miss Rosna Vokes and her company IL is
different. Some time ago she conceived the idea
of forming club, whose object should be the
exercise of physical, mental, and intellectual
qualities, and at the same time accomplish some
good for Others besides themselves. The club
was called the Half Hour Club It's purpose was
to work half an hour each day during the season
the result of that work to be sent to some chari.
table association or hospital.
During Clara Morris's recent engagement in
San Francisco Judge Brennan, of the Superior
Court of San Francisco, was sitting in the
audience. The voice of the actress recalled to
his mind long, lanky girl named Carrie Nor
rson, who had been one of his pupils in Pond,
Portage County, Ohio, where the now Judge had
taught school in that hamlet. Investigation
proved that Miss Morrison was his one-t time pupil
that hehad completely lost sight of, and who
had revealed herself to her old tutor through the
medium of her voice.
No other musical opinion is perhaps so widely
prevalent in England and America as the belief
that of the famous prima donnas of the last few
generations the vast majority were Italians.
Indeed it is currently assumed in an off-hand
way that almost the only singers worth listening
to are and were Italians. But if we look at this
question little closer, these judgments are seen
to be almost ludcrously inaccurate. The famous
Italian prima donnas, Catalani, Alboni, Pasta,
Gris etc., are almost all mere memory to even
the older ones of the present generation, and if
we look at the names which are most familiar
to-day we find that almost all of them are
Austrian, German, French, Spanish, English, or
American. Even Patti is only half italian, her
mother having been native of Spain, where
Patti herself was born. The two famous sisters,
Viardot-Garcia and Malibran, were born in Paris
OF Spanish parentage. Jenny Lind and Nilsson
are Swedish; Tietjens and Gerster, Hungarians;
Lucca Mallinger, Parepa- Rosa, Peschka- Leutner,
Materna, Dl Murska, Wilt, Sembrich, Austrian;
Ellington English; Desire. Artot, Lagrange,
French; Brandt, Malten, Sucher, Lehman,
Sontag, Schroeder-Debrient, Trebelli, (Gilbert,)
German; Albani, Van zaudt, Nevada, Hauk, etc.,
American.

The attraction at Albaugh's Grand Opera
House last week drew crowded houses. 1t was
Mr.. William H Crane in his comedy, "The Sen
ator." The play, which is refreshing in its
simplicity, deals in humorous and slightly ex-
aggerated manner with incidents in the personal
and public life of one of the nations law-mak-
ers, and presents sufficient of the pathetic in its
development to make the story complete.
With play so peculiarly American in character
and so cleverly written it could not be expected
otherwise than that comedian of Mr.. Cranes
eminent qualifications should catch the popu-
lar favor Since the former appearance here of
s'The Senator" when THE HERALD took occa-
sion to speak at length of the performance,
there has been no play at Albaugh's that has
more thoroughly pleased the public, and the
immense patronage of last week indicates that
it could continue to do so for q much longer
period with profit to Mr.. Crane and the man
agement OF the house. The company is so uni
formy excellent as to preclude an attempt at
individual mention.
"There are no flies on me,' sLet her go Gal
Iagher," 'Bet yer sweet life,' "You're loo
loo" and kindred highly elevating expressions
constitute large portion Of the dialogue of the
thing called ''Later' On" presented at the Ma
tional Theatre last week by Hallen and Fart,
while the balance of the show is made up for
the most part of sensationalisms in costumes
and dancing adapted rather to the tastes Of
hibitues of the variety theatre than to the
patrons of the legitimate playhouse Hallen
and Hart can 'do turn such as it is, but
neither of them can act. A little makeup, a
deal of slang, few property brick-bats, and
the ability to makeonoise-these are the attri-
butes of their comedy qualifications. To help
them out they have "three very noisy girls'' do
a dance in an abbreviated costume that is in
describable if not vulgar. A skirt dance by
another member of the company approaches
more nearly can-can, and by way of variety
some songs are sung descriptive Of drunken
brawls and bar-room scraps. Among the spe-
cialties the singing of Miss Ada Somers and Mr..
John E. McWade deserves commentator.
Little Miss Annie Lewis was really the star of
the performance and she worked nobly to re-
deem the show, but it was past redemption.
Miss Lewis is one of the leading soubrettes on
the stage to-day, and the enthusiastic reception
greeting her appearance in this city was as
much tribute to her genuine merit as it was q
manifestation of local pride. She is clever in
everything she does and it is to be regretted
that the opportunities for q more Legitimate
display of her ability are not afforded by 'Later
Ou.n
