DANGER OF FORGERY.
Anxious over the susceptibility OF
the Certificates to Foul Play.


Atlanta, Ca, sept THE banks COM
posing the clearing house association are
exceedingly anxious on account Of the
500 600 ~ clearing house certificates is
sued for general circulation two weeks
ago To has suddenly become apparent
that the certificates can be forged or du-
plicated with almost no trouble al al. IL
is not Yet known whether there are any
bogus certificates I'm circulation, but If
there are none, it is simply the
luck Of the banks. A duplication
of any OF the series could not be detected
unless by accident, and would probably
continue in circulation until the redemp-
ton begins. The certificates are so
simply executed that any ordinary job
printing establishment can get out fac
smile form; and the fact that the several
denominations are signed by various
clearing house officers and attorneys is so
confusing that il would be next TO impOssi-
bic for the public TO detect a bogus sigma
ture
PRINTED Of COMMON STOCK.
The paper upon which the certificates
are printed is also common stock. such as
can be had anywhere and increases the
danger of forgery. II was predicted when
the certificates first made their appear
anCe that when redemption begins the
bduhtES WOulu Luu themselves utLuEtu
with duplicates. aud to-day the clearing
house was so suddenly brought to re
alizatiOn of the seriousness Of this risk
that it is more than likely that the Ger
hcateS will be called in much sooner
than was intended. The circumstances
that opened the eyes Of the clearing house
officials to-day was the passage Of an ad-
vertisemenJ gotten up in the form of the
clearing house certificates One of these
advertisements was passed over the
counter OF the Fidelity Bank, and
caShed.
JOKE on THE TELLER
The teller did not detect the imitation
until the firm name of the enterprising
advertiser was pointed out to him, and
the money was handed back by the gen
tleman who had perpetrated the test on
the teller Several other instances are
reported were merchants accepted the
advertisement as a clearing house GER
titcate, not detecting the fraud The
clearing house officials promptly
called upon the firm which was using the
misleading advertisement to call a halt,
and, fearing serious trouble, the firm is
now advertising to pay 81 apiece for
every one Of the bogus certificates re
turned 10 them. Since the occurrence of
to-day the bankers are very apprehen-
sive OF a genuine forgery of the certiti-
Gates, and the public is also getting scary
of them.

AN OLD TINE REVIVAL.


The very largest of sll the "big
meetings" that have been held in
the county FOR the past generation
is now under full Roadway out at
the Millersport Chapel en- the Nor.
eantown Pike about three miles
west of Kingwood. IL has been
going on for three weeks aud no one
knows when it will end. We feel
perfectly safe in saying, without
fear Of contradiction from anyone
who has been there, that il knocks
cut any other big meeting" held
in the county. and no preacher
either. The Chapel is an old store
building fitted up temporarily for
holding services till church can be
built. They expect to build a
church this coming summer. The
last conference failed to send them
a minister and they were deter
mined to have their annual revival
anyhow, and their class leader,
John White, has been conducting
the services. They have been
expecting minister to help with
the meeting, but are probably hav-
ing bigger time without him.
Mr.. White Is a fluent talker and
exhorts with far more spirit and
force than most Of the ministers
aud has awakened more enthusiasm
among the members and sinners in
attendance than any minister ever
in this section. No denominations
influence is allowed to interfere
and tits free pitch in for everybody
1t is n United Brethren meeting
and as Salvation is said to be free,
the narrow walls of no sectarian
confines arc recognized, but
all are invited to come and take
part. The altar is crowded every
night with seekers and friends
praying with the penitents, and il
is hard to tell how MANY converts
have been made. The services
begin at ESQ every evening and
continues till about ton o'clock and
some nights till midnight. If any
body ever enjoyed q big meeting,
those folks do, aud when it. gets
under full Roadway the singing,
shouting and praying could be
heard over IN the next township on
summer evening. Talk about
your old time rovivals-we'll back
this one against any ever held in
the county. All the old revival
pieces arc sung and everybody gets
50 happy that the millennium seems
right at hand. The house is
jammed TO suffocating cvory night,
as the shedding is fine and people
come from far and near. People
in the community who have been
at outs" and haven't spoken for
years have en- bEced each other and
are marching on to glory side and
side.
