.COUNTERFEITERS
CAUGHT


John NJ. Hanger. member of
notorious counterfeit gang, opcrat-
ing between this city and cumber-
land the past several months on an
extensive scale, was brought here
Thursday from his home at Corinth.
Preston county, by operative United
States Secret Service Agent John Z.
Washer. whose headquarters are in
Pittsburg. Hanger was given into
the custody Of United States Deputy
Marshal E. D. Hupp here, who took
him before United States Conamis-
sioner T. S. Spates at the noon hour,
where he was ara gned on the charge
of making and passing counterfeit
silver dollars. Hanger waived eS-
animation and was held in bond of
81, 500 for the federal grand jury
here in April. In default he was
committed to jail.
Several days ago a confederate OF
Hanger was arrested and lodged in
jail in Pittsburg, through the efforts
of Mr.. Washer. He is likewise ac-
cused of making and passing eoun-
terfeit dollars. He is known by the
name of George Manear.
The complaint against Hanger
was made by John w. Davis, Of Oak
land. Md, who states that Hanger
passed a counterfeit silver dollar on
him October 90 last. The specific
charge against him as appearing in
the warrant is made false, forged
and uttered counterfeit silver dol
lars and did attempt to pass and
did pass one counterfeit silver dol
lar on said Davis on the date men,
toned. knowing the same to be false,
forged and unlawful.
The operations Of Hanger and his
confederates were reported several
months ago and some clever detec-
tive work followed, resulting in the
arrest of Hanger and Manear. They
had made and passed quite num-
Der of counterfeit silver dollars,
combining their operations mostly to
Preston county.
In searching hangers premiFs
the secret service officer found Va
basket full Of counterfeit moulds and
other contraband property buried
there. These he took possession OF
to use as evidence and later to de-
stroy.

BRANCH OFFICE
TO Be OPENED

Miss Jessie Hall, OF Fairmont.
will open an Office in the Oak Hall
building here about Feb. 20 for gen
eral stenognphic work. 1t will be
operated in connection with a SINH
lar office at Fairmont conducted b.
Miss Anna A. Russell and Margaret
c. Caswall. The Fairmont West
Virginian has this to say about the
proposed Office and business:
.'The legal fraternity and business
men of Clarksburg are to be con-
graduated upon the opening of q
new Office in their midst for general
stenographic work, where all classes
of stenography and typewriting vii!
be promptly and satisfactorily exc
cuted. The office will be opened
about the goth of this month and
will be temporarily located in Oab
Hall. Miss Jesse Hall will have
charge of this Office and it will be
operated in conjunction with one of
like nature now being conducted in
this city by Miss Annie A. Russell
and Margaret c. Caswall
'sThe business which has been
handled by these two young ladies
in neighboring towns justifes the es-
adjustment of a branch Office in
Clarksburg. These offices will Abe
able to supply good and efficient
stenographcrs on short notice for
out of town work.
3.The high grade work done bt the
office here has won for 1.-THE patron
age of the most cSacsipg end fastidi-
Gus clients, hnd this alone should be
sufficient recommendation for the
Clarksburg people to patronize an
associate Of this Office. That Miss
Hall is a stenographer Of unusual
ability is evidenced by the fact that
besides being connected with the
Current Issue, monthly periodical,
She was also secretary to the Texas
Worlds Fair Commission to the st.

TWO CHANGES
IN TEXT BOOKS

The school book board in session
Wednesday etening made but two
changes in the text books. They
changed bookkeeping from Meser-
vey's to Williams & Rogers, and
physiology from Cutters to Over
toms. Both books are published by
the American Book Company.
There was quite a contest on ply
siology and five ballots were neces-
sary to decide the matter. The
Williams s. Rogers system of book
keeping is one of the finest in the
world. 1t has been taught many
years at the Williams & Rogers bust
ness university at Rochester, N. Y,
and one of the editors of the Tele-
gram can recommend it, as he took
that system at Rochester.

CAR SUPPLY
TO Be BETTER

The local officials of the Balti-
more & Ohio railroad company be-
lieye that this week there will be a
great Improvement in the car supply
over that of last week, when nearly
allof the mines in the Fairmont and
Clarksburg regions were practically
closed because Of the sudden famine.
1t is very seldom that the mines
here do not have cars enough to run
on Monday but last week was an ex-
ception. The Indications Monday
morning were that good supply
would be on today and the official
believ that there will be an increase
all week.
What caused the car famine is not
evident. In some parts of the state
reports were sent out that the car
supply was better than it had been
for many months, but the Fairmont
and Clarksburg regions were cartain-
~ under the hoodoo.
