TWO JOHN HARNEDs
Caused $500 to Get Into the
Wrong Hands.

A young man named John Harmed
got a letter addressed to John Harm
ed, that contained a check for $500
intended for John B. Harmed, a
farmer living a few miles east of
town. He cashed the check at the
Planters Bank & Trust Co. Saturday
afternoon. Previously he had failed
to cash it at the Bank Of Hopkins
willie, as he remarked in the hearing
of the cashier that he didn't know
who had sent him the money. The
other cashiers were notified soon af-
ter he had obtained the money that
the check was questionable and in
vestigation brought out facts that
the check was intended for thefarnl-
er of the same name. Chief Roper
was notified and Harmed was soon
foundand arrested by Officer Claxton
on an old fine and when taken into
court was required to give up the
money, which was all recovered. He
had changed one $50 bill. but had
not spent any of it. He ,said:he was
lust about to send it to Cousin
John" when arrested.
He was not held, but was caution
ed to be more careful whose checks
he cashed in the future.
The money was returned toI the
bank. to be given to the real owner.

THE FROST
Sunday Night Did But Little
Damage it is Thought.

The frost of Sunday night. though
almost as heavy as might be expect
ed the latter part of March or the
first of April, did no damage to
crops it is thought. Tobacco plants
were mostly under canvas and those
that were not suffered but little, if
any. on account of the dampness of
the earth as rain fell almost every
day last week. even up to 4 o'clock
