POSE AS DETECTIVES.
Secret Service Trying to Break Up OBJ
jectionab1e Practice.

jectionab1e Practice.
"a surprising large number of peo-
pie seem to have mania for posing as
United States secret-service men, re-
marked Chief WilBie Of that service
recently, says the Washington CORE
spondent of the Brooklyn Eagle. I'VE
are running across instances nearly ev-
cry day Of men who pass themselves
off as members Of the secret service.
Some Of them are amateur hawkshaWs,
who have been reading the Sherlock
Holmes stories and pose around mere
ly for the sake Of making an impress
sion. Others are more vicious in their
intentions and pass themselves off as
secret service men in order to profit
thereby. The law strictly prohibits this
practice and imposes a fine and i'm
prisonment for conviction. We are
trying to break up the business and
are prosecuting cases wherever they
are found. Here is case we have on
hand now.
"a man was arrested in Indianapolis
a couple of days ago for masquerading
as q member of our service. He evil
IDENTIFY is a shrewd fellow and was
making use of the deception to get a
check for $3.50 cashed. The man went
into one of the indianapolis banks and
presented a check for this sum Of
money. He told the cashier that it
was the check of the paymaster Of
our service. The cashier required the
fellow to secure an indorser, and when
he went out to look for some one to
identify him the bank telegraphed to
the paymaster at st. Louis for infor-
no such person in the secret service.
The man turned up with an Indianap-
oils citizen named Rice, who indorsed
the check. Rice explained that he had
met the man while travelling from Mon
treal to Troy and had no reason to sus-
pect that he was a bogus government
employe.
''When the man was arrested papers
found on his person indicated that he
was long-headed chap and had pre-

sible question as to his identity. He
had in his possession two Or three let
ters addressed to me which he had
just dictated to the hotel stenographer
They all referred to details of office
work and were calculated to disarm
the suspicion of any one who might
doubt his claims Another was ad-
dressed to the president, but in this he
rather overreached himself In this
letter he made it appear that he had
been having correspondence with the
president in person about his transfer
to the war department to look after
some confidential work for Secretary
Taft. If anything were needed to ex-
pose him that letter was sufficient,
for, of course, no letter on a subject Of
this kind would ever be sent from the
White House."

Graham Lambs official record during
his term of office is above reproach.
Never in the history of the office has
there been so large a number of GRIM
inals caught and convicted on felony
charges.
very important thing to be considered
by the voters of Humboldt county is the
licenses collected and paid to the county

him there another term regardless OF
