WORKING AN OLD GAME
The Authorities and People Warned
Against Couple of Crooks.

Yesterday the County Clerk receiv-
ed the following. which should assist
in keeping the farmers ewes opened
to couple of crooks who have been
working the farming districts in the
East, and may drift this way. The fol-
lowing descriptive matter tells of the
plans and the men who are working
it: .s
First they appear at the Office of the
Register Of Deeds and examine the
title of different farms in the county,
finding piece of property to which
the title is unquestionably clear.
The older Of these men, when here

der the name of John Klein. They re-
present to money loaner they wish
to obtain aloan of $4,000 five thousand
dollars) upon this property which they
are about to purchase. They prefer
to make the loan from a farmer When
the farmer is produced they take him
to view the premises and while there,
in his presence, they attempt to pu'-
chase the property from the owner, but
do not succeed on account Of an appar
ent difference in price. The intended
victim then goes home. and Reilly and
Klein then get an option on the prop
the money lOaner that they have p'ir-
chased the property, and have the
deed and abstract and are ready to
make the loan with the farmer. They
produce a deed Of the premises run
ming to Klein, and this being placed
upon record the money is loaned. The
deed proves to be forgery. Reilly
and Klein having secured an impress
ion of the seal of the notary who &C
knowledged the option and having
forged the names of the grantors that
appeared in the option and also the
witnesses. sa5 s
