A BOGUS CHECK.

Authorities Looking tor u Man Who Had
IL Cashed at Centreviile!
The authorities all over the State and
in neighboring States are looking for a
slick German crook, who until recently
was employed on farm in the vicinity
OF Centreville. His name is not known,
although he was known as Myers by
aome people in thnt neighborhood.
few days ago he drove of his en-
ployer's team and went TO Centreville,
where he had a check cashed at John
Stewards hotel. After the man had
left the town 1t was found that the
check had been forged on A. j. Kooch,
manager at John A. Lengel's Baverian
Brewery. 1t was for $40 and was signel
"a. Myers" The loss of the team
was discovered about the same time and
a search for the man was instituted.
He had made good his escape and haE
not been seen since. 1t is supposed
that the man went either in the direc-
ton Of Chester or West Chester and il
ia expected to apprehend him in the
vicinity OF one of those places.
lie is described as being middle
aged man, about 5 feet 10 inches tall,
and hau on gray suit and straw hat
when last seen.

though the murder Of Major William
G. Wilson, the aged and eccentric
librarian and founder of Wilsnn's Cir

no tangible clue has been found TO his
murderers. and the police department
is entirely at sea. The entire detective
force 10 working on the case, and seem
no nearer locating the guilty ones to-

murder was committed.
The result OF the autopsy by DIR.
Cattel showed that the cause OF death
was fractured skull. In addition to the
great number OF blows the murderous
thieves landed on the aged man with
the hammer, ID of his ribs were also
badly fractured.
Two of Wilson's relatives arrived here
this morning, and formally identified
the body, after which they received a
permit from the coroner for the removal
OF the remains. The body will be taken
away some time during the day, and
the funeral will take place at his old

in that manner. A rough estimate of
the extent of the library places the
