They Had Been Selected as Possible Victim

BOSTON, July 1.-Two bogus concerns
masquerading under different names,
came to grief this afternoon by the ar
rest of two men by police inspectors.

ry G. Arnold. 10 years old, who says his

but says that he has been stopping at
different places in this city of late.
1t has been their scheme to send let
tiers from their establishment on Chat
ham street under the name of tsChas. II.
Thompson d CO.. to the banks, with
the representation that an agent from
this house might call at the banks to
which .the letter was addressed. and
present check for few hundred
dollars. 1t was stated in the letter that
if this was done, it would be all
right to give him the cash as
Thompson 6 Co.. said it had large
account with White, Newton 6 Stock
bridge, bankers. To substantiate this
claim they inclosed certificate from the
bankers showing that they were all Sc
cure.
A list of banks in various cities were
found in the pockets of the men arrested,
Among the cities included were Portland

Major John McEldowney for Interna
Revenue Collector.
b ~ Flilor of Ms ReQlsLer.

To tho Editor Of dls Register:
SIR:-Whilst other counties or our
State have pushed to the front their
favorite sons and We have seen them
honored with State and federal appoint
ments, Wetzel county has been content
10 stand in the back ground and ask for
nothing, not because she has not got
the men with the ability to fill any Of
fee made by appointment either State
or federal, but simply because the grand
old Democratic party of Wetzel county
has not demanded in proper tones the
recognition she has so long deserved.
But such is not the feeling
in Wetzel county at this time for one OF
our sons is asking for federal appoint
ment, that of Internal Revenue Collect
or for this State The one referred to
is John G. McEldowney. Mr.. McEl-
downey's sound Democracy and thor
ough business qualifications are historic
all over the State, and a more mt man
for the position could not be found In
the State, and certainly no county in
the State has as strong a claim to the
appointment as WetZel, for how often
has her magnificent majorities saved
the State to the Democratic party in the
past. The appointment OF Neil
dOwney will be boon TO
the grand old party in Wetzel
county, and would be hailed with pleas
ure by every Democrat in this end OF
the State. The Democrats OF Wetzel
are unit in asking for his appoint
ment The high esteem I'm which he is
held by the Democracy Of his own coun-
" is fully demonstrated by the long
term OF years which he held Office in his
own county, having served as Clerk OF
the Courts Of Wetzel county for twenty
two years.
Aside from his fitness to FIJI the posi-
ton, aud aside from his personal claims
upon the party, the Democracy OF old
Vetzel is asking and demanding OF the
incoming administration his appoint
ment as a reward for past services rem
dered the party.
1t will be remembered that Wetzel
was-the first county in this State to give
a Democratic majority, and she has
been promptly at her post az every cleo
ton slnce the formation Of the State,
rolling up her gigantic majorities and
often saving the State 10 the Demo-
cratic party, and now we are asking to
be recognized by the party we have so
faithfully served il the appointment OF
one of our favorite sons to the Office Of
Internal Revenue Collector for the State
in the person of John c. MeEldowney.

The spencer hospital.
Editor OF the REGISTER:

To the Editor OF the Register:
As the Spencer Hospital for the In
sane is nearing completion it will neces-
Sarily require some one to superintend
and manage it. This Will certainly de-
mand a physician of both ability and
experience, and most assuredly of prac
tical experience. Ne do not think there
is another man in the State
who can fill the position more
thoroughly than DR.. Thomas III. Hood,
who has been assistant uperintendent
of the Weston Asylum for several years.
We have been thoroughly acquainted
with him while acting fer days in the
capacity OF superintendent OF the Yves
ton asylum during the absence OF Su-
perintendent Lewis, aud his thorough
knowIedgeof the position caused the
business connected with the institution
to move along as smoothly and pleasant
IL as could be desired. His natural tact
for forming and retaining the friend
ship of both Subordinates and patients
is marked.
He is graduate of the State Uni
versity and also of the Jefferson Medi-
cal College, of Philadelphia, First Vice
President of the West Virginia Medical
Society, and 8 Democrat because he
thinks it right to be. The Directors
would make no mistake by appointing
DR.. Hood. DEMOCRAT.
