CHRISTMAS DAY.

A Pies for Aid from tho salvati on
The following notice OF the work ol
the Salvation army explains itself:
To meet the emergency and to give
every man, woman and child in Los An
geles good reason to be thankful fol
Christmas day, the Salvation army
means to give free dinner to all who
have not the means to prepare one for
themselves, and they mean to give NOT
only dinner, but Christmas dinner,
commencing with turkey and running
clear through to mince pie.
Last Christmas the army fed 1400
this year they expect 1000. and will not
be surprised if $500 accept their invita-.
tion. When one begins to calculate on
the number of turkeys and chickens, the
mountain Of cake and mince pie required
to make q Christmas feast for 200(
hungry people, an idea may be had Of
the magnitude of the contract assumed
by the Salvation army. But the energy
of that organization is proverbial, and
they have q way Of doing this kind o.
thing that is simply phenomenal
to the ordinary observer. In all con.
fdence the army appeals to the public

and agent for the good people of the city,
and are willing to have it considered
that the feast is given, not by, but
through the army.
If the canvassers fail to call upon you
for contribution, don't feel offended,
don't feel overlooked, but call at the
barracks, No. 3291a South Spring street,
where from this date you will find
army officers whose fervent thanks and
hearty God bless you will OF itself re-
pay the gift of turkey, chicken, cake
or mince pie, or the equivelant in the
current coin OF the realm.
Reader, you certainly can afford 70
give a Christmas gift to the needy and
hungry of our city, and contribute some.
thing to make one Christmas that may
close without finding in Los Angeles
one hungry man, woman or child with

The army has engaged the pavilion
for Christmas night, and invite all who
have had dinner with them, as we'll as

he Tries Signing Sheriff Cline's Name to
q Check.
For several years past Frank Lamoree,
a half-witted young man who lives in
Los Angeles, has been constant source
OF uneasiness to his parents. He has
an unfortunate penohant for forging
checks for small amounts and cashing
them. He has been in the courts
several times for such things, but his
evident lack of mental balance and de-
formed limbs have always kept him
from conviction. Yet he has never
been considered insane enough to send
to an insane asylum.
His latest escapade was Friday night,
when he went to Lamanda park. Here
represented himself to Mr.. Novel;, OF
the firm of NOVEL; & Wilson, as HI. O.
Cline, q brother Of Sheriff Cline, and
exhibited deputy sheriff's badge he
had procured in some way. He asked
them to cash check Of 90 for him,
which they did. 1t was afterwards
found to be worthless, and Sheriff Cline
was notified. He had no trouble in
identifying the forger from the descrip-
ton, and Lamoree was soon in jail. A
complaint was filed against him late
Yesterday afternoon in Justice Bartholo-
news court, charging him with en-
bezzlement.
