FIND WORTHLESS CHECK
Ex-Alderman John Derpa's
Name is Forged on
the Paper.

The finding of a note book, between
the pages of which contained a check
on the Woodlawn Savings bank call
ing for $72, bearing the signature of
John Marshall and counter signed by
John S Derpa, ex-alderman, has led
the police authorities to wonder at its
genuiness.
1t was found over a week ago in
the play gorunds at Bessemer park by
one of the attendants, John Hoffman,
but was held in his possession until
yesterday, when 1t was turned over to
the ex-alderman for Identification who
looked establishment upon what has
thus far developed to be a worthless
piece of paper. The number of the
check was 1865
MarshalIs address and number as
given in the note book on the identi-
fication fly leaf, is 8S4S Muskegon ave
nue.. An effort to locate him at that
number was unsuccessful and his
whereabouts it appears are unknown.
The check was made payable to the
order of John NJ. Smyth on the Wood
lawn bank, and as Mr.. Derpa has never
had an account with that institution
it makes the matter still more puzzling
and he is inclined to take the matter
as a joke Mr. Derpa still has the
check in his possession and any attempt
to prove it's genuiness will probably
lead to the arrest of the possible
forger

A DERELICT LAUNCH
Found by James Minas and
Jos. Hartswell on Calu-
met River.

While out rowing yesterday after
noon in the Calumet river, Joseph
Hartswel and James Minas found an
abandoned launch which was floating
in the water near the southern portion
of the river. The launch has a seat
ing capacity Of six, but there was nc
articles of furniture or other marks to
help locate the owners of the craft.
A canvas canopy covered the top OF
teh boat and an American flag was
led on the rear end of the boat.
No one to date has claimed the trim
little craft, which is a very valuable
one. The theory of drowning has been
offered in connection with the finding
of the boat, but the general opinion
is that it had become loose from its
mornings and drifted away.
