public may safely leave the conduct

GETTING MONEY EASY.

A young man by the name of F. L.
Green, who worked for Whistler g.
Trobitz, the plumbing firm, thought
he could make money much easier
than by laboring for it, and there
upon started to do little forging of
other peoples names in order to get
rich quickly.
He signed the name of Whistler &
Trobitz to check for s27. 40 and pass
ed same upon A. l.. Gourley. having
bought some furniture and received
some change, ordering the goods sent
to fictitious residence number in
this city.
He then signed the name of S. F.
Durfee, well known farmer, to a
check for SIG. 90 and passed same upon
j. M. Cameron.
The discovery of the forgery of the
checks was soon made and the officers
notified and they at once set out to
trace him.
After having sent tracers of the
man with descriptions of his appear
ance. they received word yesterday
from Castle Gate. Utah. that he had
been apprehended there.
At noon today Sheriff Struthers left
for Castle Gate to bring the forger
back with him to this city.
