Il was about two weeks ago that
the young man arrived in Canon City
looking for health and suckers. He
found the latter all right. but unfor-
tunately his scheme was such that he
had TO make a return call. and that Is
when he got himself into all kinds of
trouble.
The above is only sample case, as
there were many others throughout
the city, and II the young man has
ret ned from here he had better keep
IN hiding for some time TO come.
There were perhaps fifty ladies In
Canon City City who were Induced to
have various articles Of silverware
replaied. They were told that the
work would be the finest ever and
NA1iy equal to new ones just out OF the
store. When returned they were al
most twice as heavy as before and
about as smooth as street paved

man, an electrician, and they entered
into conspiracy to get from him GER
tain money and checks which he had
