Some person brought to this Office
yesterday an item announcing that
Mrs F. II. Macy had arrived in the
city. Mr.. Macy is unmarried and the
item was false. If the person who
brought that piece of news to the Of
flee did the act deliberately, being
cognizent of the fact, or it was done
through a motive of malice with the
purpose of doing an injury, then
it was a criminal offence. The
TELEGRAM always appreciates the
kindness of friends who bring items
of news to the office, but the manage
ment is on the other hand eager to
see such an offence as this one prose-
cuted to the extent of the law, and
had it not been in this case that the
injured party interceded, the matter
would have been placed in the hands
Of the State'S attornev
