NOTES FROM NEARBY

Mrs. Daisy Mack, of DeKalb, who
had just been granted n divorce from
John F. Mack, was greatly surprised
when her husband handed back to
her 100000 she had given him as a
wedding present. She is wealthy.
and when they were married gave
him the money so that he might not
feel under obligations to her. They
failed to agree and decided to separ-
ate. The woman now has her free
dom and the money and they parted
on friendly terms.

Leslie Snyder, of Lafayette. is now
an inmate of the Stark county Jail
and will probably remain until the
next grand jury is in session. He
worked for Ed Nowlan on the lat
ter's farm near Lafayette a week
or SO ago, at $1.5O a day, putting in
four days. When he quit he had six
dollars coming to him, and Mr.. Now
Ian gave n check for that amount
upon the bank of Bailey d Beecher.
Six dollars seemed small amount
to Snyder. so he added ''ty' to the
six, and attempted to cash the check
for sixty dollars. BY an over sight,
however, he neglected to add another
cipher to the figures, $500" on the
check, and the bank officials at once
noticed the discrepancy. Snyder took
back the check and doctored it again,
and after a short time attempted to
pass it on another member of the
banking firm. 1t would not work.
Monday he was arrested by Sheriff
Williams upon the charge of forgery,
given hearing before Justice Blair,
and sent to Jail in default of $1,000
bail.-Stark County News.
