FORGED REV. c. II. sTRoNG's NAME.
Two Merchants swindIed out of $40
Each by a Slick Young Man.

A very neat case of forgery has Just
come to light as the result of which two
well known retail merchants are out just
$40 each. The work was done by means
Of forged checks, and the cleverness with
which the forger worked his scheme
makes an interesting story.
Last Saturday night a young white man
walked into p Tuberdy's shoe store and
presented check bearing the name of
heV. Z. II. strong. The young man stated
thar Mr.: Strong vas i'll at his
him to town 10 make some
PURCHASES, giving him the check
with which to make the payments. The
check was drawn on the Southern Bank
and was properly made out, the handwrit-
Ing being neat and regular.
The man looked rather tough, but he told
plausible story, saying that he had been
recently employed by Mr.. Strong and that
ne was soon 10 take the position of sex
ton of st. Johns church. This being the
case ne was allowed TO purchase what he
wanted. After purchasing several dollars
worth Of goods the man said he did not
care for the change, but finally decided to
buy q pair of shoes, which he did. He
was then given the change coming to him,
which was small.
From Tuberdy's the fellow went to w.
G. Cooper's grocery store, where he told
much the same story, and presented SIM
liar check for the same amount. He only
bought small amount of groceries, how
ever and said that Mr.. Strong wanted the
rest of the check in cash. The cash.
amounting 10 several dollars, was given
him. Being Saturday night the checks
were not deposited in bank until Monday
morning. Mr.. Strong has a deposit at the
Southern Bank. 1t Was noticed there that
the signatures did not correspond with that
of MIR. Strong and he was communicated
with. He promptly announced that the
checks were forgeries. The matter was
kept quiet in the hope of catching the
forger. Mr.. Strong was of course unable
to say who the party was who had made
such use of his name, but he had his sus-

 She who can't quite stand the all tight sleeve will change all her old ones, tightening them to the top arm and then pushing just little bit above the shoulder line. She will have enough material from the sleeves for funnel cuffs, and if the sleeves were very big, she will have enough for a folded ceinture-it looks just as pretty if you call it girdle. If the old bodice had pouch front, she will bind 1t close as far as the ceinture extends and let the bag above be very slight. She will make fresh collar out of any scrap she may have: and it can be just as the collar was before, only fresh, stiff and crisp. FLORETTE.

be seen. This exhibition of pure polite ness is very pleasing to all who want New Haven to have a good reputation In some places there are laws against big theatre hats, but no such law is needed in New Haven.
 It is interesting to note that some of the lovely women of San Francisco though not quite as spontaneously and generously polite as the lovely women of New Haven, are showing disposi- ton to do right in the theatres. At one of the San Francisco theatres on the opening night of the season each lovely woman on entering received a card on which was an appeal to her good nature not to needlessly lessen the enjoyment of other patrons The plan was sue cess. All the hats, except the unobtru- sive flat headgear were removed, and the habitues Of the theatre were de- lighted The managers mail has been crowded with commendatory letters, among which were not few from the lovely women themselves. The per manency of the reform rests with the women,' one of the managers sald. "No amount of mere legislation will ef- feet anything in this matter. Now 1t may be that the women were so well pleased with the experience that they will doff their hats again and again, and what was a novel experiment will become the fashion A comparatively few women may bring about this re- suit; if number of women, we'll known in society, would take off their hats others would do so merely by way of following a good example-by way, in other words, of being in the fashion. It would be recognized as matter of good taste to remove the hat in the theatre-which it certainly is--and the reform would be then effected perma- nently."
 It is to be hoped that the politeness of the lovely women of New Haven will persist, and that the politeness of the lovely women of San Francisco will in crease There is a crown Of glory on every lovely woman in theatre who has on little hat or no hat.

woman's Influence in Government.


 The following resolutions were unan- imously passed by the legislature of Wyoming at it's last session, and cer- tified copies are sent to every leglsla- tion body in the world:
 Be 1t resolved by the legislature of the state of Wyoming. That the pos session and exercise of suffrage by the women of Wyoming for the past quar- ter of a century has wrought no harm and has done great good in many ways: that 1t has largely aided in banishing crime, pauperism and vice from this state, and that without any violent or oppressive legislation; that it has se- cured peaceful and orderly elections, good government and a remarkable de- gree of civilization and public order. and We point with pride to the facts that after nearly twenty-five years of woman suffrage not one county in Wy oming has poorhouse, that our jails are nearly empty, and crime, except that committed by strangers in this state, almost unknown, and as the re- suit of experience we urge every civil ized community on earth to enfran- chise its women without delay
 Resolved. That an authenticated copy of these resolutions be forwarded by the government of the state to the legislature of every state and territory in this country, and to every legislative body in the world, and that we request the press of the civilized world to call the attention of their readers to these resolutions"
