Tomorrow evening at o'clock there will
be shown for the first tina N this country.
in the lecture hall of the Carroll Institute
lifelike reproductions of his holiness Leo
XIII. The pictures We're photographed by
the Vitascope Company as the venerable
head of the Apostolic Church is seen
passing through the gardens of the Vati-
can. and will be SHOWN by the American
biogEaph.
The exhibition is specially accorded in
honor of his eXcei'ency Most Rev. Sc

panying the presentation of the views will
be delivered by Rev Thomas Malone. ed
itor OF the Colorado Catholic. Those in

The pictures which are to be presented

Nothing could be more touching than
the appearance of the aged and enfeebled
father Of the church in his declining years

Pope Leo himself. and upon seeing his

ARRESTED FOR FORGERY.
Columbusoy phomns Presented
BOsfIn 'Certffied Cheek.


Columbus Thomas. a contractor and un-
til neutrality-suspicious. of lunchroom at
No. 1925 PENNSYLVANIA Avenue was ar
rested last night by Detective Proctor
and locked mp at No. station with a
charge of forgery opposite his name,
The ofiense.fer which Thomas was ar
rested is a peceIiar one. and while he adj
mits perpetrating i; he gives no exp!ana-
ton of his conduct. The offense consists
of uttering what purports to be certi-i
fled check for 81. coo, drawn on the Column
bia National Bank. The check bears the
name of Thomas as maker and the in
dorsement of C. Pliny Hough, formerly
cashier of the bank.
The check is a very clumsy piece OF
work. IT consists of an old promissory.
note for $500 made by Thomas and bear
ing the Endorsement spoken of. Across
its face is written paid, and under that
word appears the name of Hough
cashier -s
Pasted over the face of the note is 1t
thin paper check form OF the Columbia
bank. The check paper is so thin that
the printing on the note beneath 1t
shows through in places
Thomas had traced his own signature
and that of Mr.. Hough through the thin
paper. He had raised the amount from
$500 to $1,000 and changed the date. He
had also written above the traced name
of Mr.. Hough the word certified. This
at a casual glance made the paper in u
measure resemble a certified check. II
would not, however, stand the slightest
scrutiny. t".
The check was received at the District
htttl. J. a hnt 10
collector of taxes. In company with bid
from George W. Harrison, a bidder on
District contracts. 1t accompanied the
bid as guarantee of good faith for the
performance of the contract If the bidder
Is successful in securing 1t and is in COM
pliance with the usual form of procedure.
Mr.. Davis did not like the appearance
of the check and called the attention of
| Commissioner Wight TO it. He examined
1t very carefully and referred it to In
, spector of Detectives Mattingly. who i'm
| mediateiy instituted an investigation and
| assigned Detective Proctor to locate Har-
| risson. A warrant was issued for Har-
| rissons arrest and after a short search
| the detective found him and took him
| into custody.
| Harrison acknowledged that he pre-
sented the check. but stated he had sim
ply acted as an agent for Thomas. who
| he said. had given him the check to be
deposited with the bid. He stated fur
| ther that Thomas was the real bidder.
| but that the bid was not presented in his
| name because Thomas, 1t seems. was not
| i'll good repute with the Commissioners.
| Detective Proctor. armed with this in
| formation, procured warrant for the ar
rest of Thomas and yesterday evening
| placed him under arrest. Thomas corr
| roborated the statements of HARRISON
| and admitted that the check was a for-
gerry. .-i.
What Thomas expected to accomplish
| by such IA crude piece of work is hard
| to imaginh The check was such a
| clumsy affair that 1t would not bear close
| scrutiny and he must have known it.. He
will probably he arraigned in court this
morning. when ne may explain his action
