ALLEGED FoRGER IN JAIL.
Attempted to Pass Check for $3.50
Pronounced Clumsy Forgery.

A man named William Jaeger now
lies in the county Jail awaiting trial for
forgery. while A. seafeldt, the propri-
etor OF a saloon on Asaor street is out
OF pocket to the amount OF $50.
Jaeger presented a check for $3.50,
signed by Wolfe & Zwicker, Of Port
land, to seafeldt few days ago, but
as the latter had not the amount on
hand at the time he advanced Jaeger
$50 on the paper.
Yesterday afternoon Jaeger again
asked Seafeldt sor money and was told
that he had not endorsed the check.
After doing so he requested Seafeldt
to go to the bank and cash the check
for him.
At the First National bank, upon
which institution the check was drawn.
1t was pronounced a forgery of the
olumsiest kind; being dated August II,
ana having no revenue stamp affixed
to 1t.
While awaiting an answer to tele-
gram to Wolfe & Zwicker, making in
quirics concerning the check, Seafeldt
went to the county attorney and OBJ
tained a warrant for Jaeger's arrest.
Upon receipt Of reply pronouncing
the paper bogus. Seafeldt returned to
his saloon and. himself arrested Jaeger,
taking him to the county Jail.
According to Jaeger's story he came
here from Portland to work for Wolfe
& Zwicker on the light ship, but gave
up his place and sought employment
here. He said the check was given to
him by Charles Mitchell. foreman for
the firm.
A man answering Jaeger's description
went into the Eagle pharmacy, S5S Bond
street, few evenings ago, and asked
for blank check on the Astoria Ma
tional bank, but was told that they
had only First National bank checks.
He replied that such a one would do,
and wrote out the check at desk in
the store.

JUDGE NELSON'S CHARGE,
II Is n rather unusual proceeding
In police court when the Judge himself

this was done in court yesterday af-
ternoon.
Attorney J. NJ. Hughes was late when
court opened and this In itself was
quite contrary TO his usual custom.
lie dld not appear until after the first
case had been disposed OF.
When he read the charges In the sec
ond case. hIs voice was weaker than
usual. but sufficiently strong to be
heard by all present.
After Judge Nelson had passed sem
tence upon the prisoners and they We're
heng taken from the room, he arose
from his chair and requested the audi
enoe to remain on the benches as he
had yet another case to dispose Of.
Attorney Hughes looked on the table
for the papers in the case, the police
men looked at each other In q ques-
tIoninR manner. but Judge Nelson smll-
ed smile that meant volumes.
Quiet being restored. the judge said;
II wish TO prefer charges against Mr..
Hughes for matrimonial negligence. or
to be more explicit, for appearing in
court the day after being married.
That he is guilty there can be no doubt,
but pending good behavior will dis
miss the case as this is his first Of
fense."

Z chief Hallock.

Of Chief Hallock.
The first case called was that OF
Thomas Olsen. charged with being
drunk and conducting himself In a dis
orderly manner. To the charge OF
drunkenness Thomas could not plead
anything but guilty. his face was suf-
hcient evidence. He pretended to be
Ignorant OF the English language when
questioned regarding the second charge.
Officer Phillips was called. He told
the court that Olsen was trying to
drink every color OF liquor along Bond
street. without paying for 1t. At the
Louvre. Olsen became noisy and was
thrown out twice, but returned TO the
place for another go. Phillips remon-
strated with him but Olsen tried TO
run a biuff. II worked so disastrously
that he was arrested. "siO," said the
Judge. and the next case was called.
Dick Van Blbben. who had imbibed
too freely In that which cheers, but
lnebriates. stood up and admitted that
he was guilty. It cost him IS for his
little time.
The third prisoner in Jail for drunk
enness was too jagged and sleepy to
make a presentable appearance so his
case was continued until today.
