On Saturday couple of Germans,

other the landlord of the Nicollet
house, complained to the police that
they had been yictimized by a sharper
who had passed confederate SO bills
upon them. They had never before
seen the queer money and supposed
that Confederate States of America"
printed across it's face meant the
same thing as Omitted States Of
America" and they innocently took
them. Not until they attempted to
deposit them at the bank did they
discover that they had been swindled'
and there was a good old-fashioned
roar when the error was manifested.
A description of the swindler was
furnished the police, and they at once
went upon the trail of the fugitive.

resident of TinckOmville hill, and
