CHARGED WITH FORGERY.


Ogden Standards: Yesterday morn
ing Detective Pender picked UP n
young man giving his name as Chris
Hogeson. In an Electric avenue Joint,
on charge OF uttering forged paper.
When arrested he had in his possession
check for slOO.and early in the morn
ing had passed one for $50 on Thomas
Topham of the Mint saloon Both
checks We're signed by the name of
Aurelius Fitzgerald. Il stoekman of
Draper Salt Lake county, and e,awn
ON the Doseret National bank.
Hogeson claims he has been herding
sheep for Fitzgerald near Tecoma, Ne
vada, and that he was paid of with
the two checks. He met a friend and
they proceeded to have a time and had
just got well started when Fender
made the roundup and he was cor
rallied.
The check has been forwarded TO
Salt Lake and its value at the Deseret
National bank will decide the truthful
ness OF Hogeson's story Hogeson's
writing and that Of the signature on
the check are suspiciously similar.

DEATH OF DAUDET.


New York. Dec. 1.-THE Figaro. ac-
cording to a special dispatch to the
Herald from Paris gives the following
additional facts about the death of
Alphonse Daudet, the author:
At half-past seven the whole family
of NJ. Daudet met at dinner. Nine.
Daudet the two sons, Leon and Lucien,
Mile. Edmee Daudet and Nine. Allard
Nine. Daudets mother. The gather
ing was a merry one and there was
plenty OF chat and laughter. Suddenly
NJ. Daudet gave p cay and his head
fell back. He had fallen into n syn
cope. 1t was then quarter past
eight. Everything was done that
could be done. A messenger was at
once sent for DIR. GILES de Ia Torrette
The family's anxiety was extreme. for
NJ. Daudet showed no signs of recov-
ering consciousness. He had been car
ried to bed pale and almost cold, and
II was in vain that his wife and sons
bent over him and called him by name
After few minutes OF dreadful sus-
pense the doctors reached the house
and with them the Cure of Saint Clo-
tide. AS they entered the room the
priest caught the Doctors eyes and
fell on his knees reciting the prayers
for the dead. Every resource OF sci
