Forged School Warrants.

Spectators in county warrants at
Woodbury. are very much worked up
over the discovery that they have been
victimized into buying lot of forged
school warrants. Geo. Busey, school
teacher, worked off one of the bogus
warrants on Woodbury. firm, but when
the officers went to look for him he had
skipped. Investigation developed the
fact that J. d. Vance, clerk of the dis
trict in which Busey taught school, had
been issuing bogus warrants for years.
but to what extent is not known. A
warrant was sworn out for him by one
of the victimized spectators, but when
the officer went to look for him he, too,
had fled. The question which is now
disturbing the spectators is whether
the county can recover of them the war
rants which have already been paid by
the trustee and which were forged.
The whereabouts of the swindlers is
unknown.

THE CELESTIAL EMPIRE.

Storekeepers in China seldom give
credit. If their patrons need money
they borrow it of the money-lenders.
The oldest freaTms were used in
China. The Chinese were fighting with
guns at a time when Europeans used
bows and arrows.
The Chinese have a singularIy COM
plicated calendar. Their cycles have
90 years, each year, month and day
having its own name, and by combin-
ing these the day, month and year are
designated
The foot of Chinese woman, from
the heel to the great toe, measures only
four inches; the great toe is bent
abruptly backwards, and its extremity
pointed directly upwards; while the
phalanges of the other toes are doubled
in beneath the sole of the foot.

Seeking Pardon for George Darcy.

Seeking IA Pardon for George Dazey.
Friends and relatives Of George r.
Dazey are active in securing signatures
to petition to President Cleveland ask
ing that Dazey be pardoned; also per-
sonal letters from influential citizens to
the same effect. Dazey was sentenced
to two years, beginning June 25, 1894,
and fined $4,000. He will be allowed
four months good time, which would
secure his release February 25, 1896. AS
he will be unable to pay the fine of $10,-
900, however, he will have to remain an
other month-until March 25-and will
then be released on his making oath
that he is unable to pay. Any funds or
property that he may afterward become
possessed of would be liable to attach
ment for the fine, and this is one of the
reasons his friends seek his pardon.
