ARRESTED AT ROCKFORD.
J. t. Clark. Claiming to Be From This
City Is accused of Forgery.


J. Z. Clarke, claiming Kenosha as
his home, was arrested by the police
Of Rockford, Ill, last night. on a
charge Of attempting to pass a worth
less check. The check was presented
to a saloon keeper in Rockford and
had been drawn on a Chicago bank.
The man was arrested as soon as it
was found out that the check was
worthless.
Efforts have been made to locate
Clark in Kenosha, but his address
does not appear in the city directory
ard it is thought that he simply gave
his address as Kenosha in order to
prevent the officers discovering his
true identity.
