BIDDEFoRD KNOWS HIM! TOO.

Young Thomas Does Hotel Man to the
Extent Of $50.
Biddeford, Septem Der 29.-Landlord
Smith of Hotel Thacher would like to
see young man named 6. M. Thomas,
who has been On the road In this state
as salesman for Boston supply house.
Thomas got Mr.. Smith to cash check
for $50 for him the other day, ana the
paper was found to be worthless.
The swindle is regarded as one of the
coolest that has been perpetrated in
Biddeford for long time. Thomas is
we'll known here among clothing deal
ers, having been ON the road for several
years, and stopping here occasionally.
bout two weeks ago he came to Bidde-
ford and got dinner at Hotel Thaoher.
He called on Julius Cohen to whom he
was slightly known, and asked him to
cash check for $50.
Mr.. Cohen declined and Thomas then
went to the Biddeford National bank
and presented the check. Cashier Good
win told him that he must get some one
to vouoh for him and have the check
endorsed, and Thomas then left the
bank. He did not hunt up Mr.. Cohen
to get his endorsements, for he probably
knew that would be useless, but he went
| to the Hotel Thacher, and worked
Landlord Smith for the amount, giving
him the check in return for $50 minus
the price of his dinner. The check was
ON the Everett bank of Boston and waf
drawn to the order Of Thomas and
purporting to be signed by Jones &
Co., of Boston. He gave Julius Cohen
as reference, and Mr.. Smith took it.
Thomas hasn't been seen here since.
Thomas is not only known here through
his connection with the clothing bust.

in the Biddeford house under Frederick
Yates. He is rather short. thick -se,
individual, about 80 years of age. He
wears full heard. though in his day.
as porter at the hotel he was smooth.
shaven, and therefore many Of his old
acquaintances here failed to recognizes
him lately.

FREE COINAGE OF CHECKS.
G, N. Thomas Evidently an Apostle of

Bangor. September 29.-What his vic
tins regard as one of the coolest bits of
swindling whiohDhas been seen in Bangor
in long time, was recently performed
here by one g. NJ. Thomas, native Of
Milo, and during some time an employe
at the Windsor hotal in this city. After
leaving the hotel he. went to Boston and
worked for the Standard Clothing Com
pany a while. but was dismissed for
some reason. Later he went on the road
for Boston clothing supply house. and
frequently came to Bangor. He has done
business. with some of the leading cloth
iers, and has been considered reliable
man, as far as business went. Several
firms here were in the habit of oashing
checks for him at any time, and none
of them ever went to protest.
More than week ago Thomas appeared
in Bangor again. He said that he was
travelling for liquor house. He stayed
at the Penobscot Exchange. He had
not been hers long before there were
signs of orookedness in his transactions.
Thomas owed bill at the Electric Grill
on Exchange street. He paid it in a
check for quite sum. The proprietor
gave him the change, and then tele
graphed to Boston to find out about the
paper. He received an unfavorable an
swer, and Immediately went to the Pc
nobscot Exchange and confronted Thorn
but paid the bill In cash and took back
his check, and had to pay for telegraph
ing.
Thomas got check Dashed at j. A.
Robinson's clothing house. The check
was forwarded to Boston. 1t was drawn
| by 9. M. Thomas on the Beacon Trust
Company of Boston. That institution
sent back prompt word that the paper
was not good.
Thomas got suit of clothes at W. H.
Salley's store, paying with check, and
receiving quite sum in return as the
balance of the trade. He also visited
Myer NJ. Levy's clothing store with the
same dodge. Other places were also
visited, and no one yet knows how many
were viotimized. At the Exchange he
tried to induce Landlord Crafty to take
his pay in "paper," but could not dc
go.
Thomas went to Dover from here. and
in that town ha carria6 IN afrpi Ior
swindles. He left there Friday nigh,
for Boston, an has not been heard oil
since, although the police are on his trail.
1t has been reported from Augusta that
he did some work there, Beck, the cloth
Ter having been fooled on check drawn
on Boston party, and signed BY Thorn
az, for which there were no funds.

hearts of the American people, Hon.
Thomas B. Reed. (Applauss.)
He was glad to see so many present, as
1t eviuead their interest in the purposes
of an order which was ofsgreat benefit to
che American home. The home was the
great and fundamental institution of
this country The homes OF the common
people of America had furnished the
men who had made the nation in the
past, and upheld it now. The homes of
TIE "nlasses' furnish those who become
the "casses'' 1t is the fashion of some
in this country to try to array the So
called masses, against the so-cailed
"classes." But there can be no perma-
nent antagonist Of this sort. The fra
ternal beneficiary system had come as a
great aid to the families and hands of the
people, Twenty eight years ago the
Anciert Order of the United Worknen
was esba blished at Meadville. Pa. To-
day there are q multitude of these, with
a membership of two million men and
women. They have paid to families and
homes more than 300 millions of dollars
in a quarter Of century. Last year they
paid forty millions to widows and or
phans.
The order of the Maccabees is one OF
these great organizations. 1t takes its
name from the great leader, Judas
Macoa bees, who first enunciated the
principle that portion of the fruits OF
victory should go to the widows and
children of the comrades who fell. The
order was established in 1881 at Port
Huron, Mich, and now had over $50, 00(
members. The order is liked best where
it ia best known. In Port Huron it has
$500 mem bers, and in Michigan 90, 600.
All classes of people belong, from 6
United States Senator and Judge of the
Supreme court, to farmers and laborers.
Mr. Marley then went on to explain
the conditions of mem bership, and to tel
instances of the great good done by the
order in its beneficiary and insurance
provisions. Some preJudioes had beer
caused because it was western order
but it was strong in eastern states like
New York and Ohio.
