FINE CLOTHING

Utah COnfeSSeS to Theft
of Wearing Apparel.
FORGERY ALSO CHARGED
CHECKS FOR VARIOUS AMOUNTS
WITH FALSE NAME.

George A. Sheets. chief of detectives,
last evening arrested Alice Thompson, a
member of a prominent family of south
ern Utah, on charges of grand larceny
and forgery. Miss Thompson, which is
not her true name. not long ago moved
in good society and was exceptionally
popular. She is strikingly handsome.
Her age as given on the police register
is %, but she looks even younger.
The charges against the girl are that
she stole $500 worth of wearing apparel
from Mrs. Alonzo Z. Hyde of 965 East
First South street and forged the name
of Mrs. Hyde TO four checks aggregating
Sl9 Miss Thompson was employed as
servant at the home of Mrs. Hyde. She
went to work at the Hyde home a month
ago and her employers soon recognized
that she was apparently of excellent
breeding and far superior to her position
Yesterday afternoon she disappeared
from the home, taking with her two alli-
gator suit cases filled with clothing be
longing to Mrs. Hyde. She also took a
blank check book. The theft was report
ed to the police and an excellent descrip-
ton of the girl given to Chef Sheets
had cashed two checks for Sc. one for 81
and one for 50, to which she signed Mrs
Hyde's name. These checks were cashed
at the Halliday. the Smith, the Godbe-
Pitts and the COombs drug stores.
Chief Sheets received a clue to the
identity of the girl last evening and ar
rested her at the home of her friends in
the southwestern part of the city. All
of the stolen goods We're recovered. The
young woman confessed to the theft and
the forgery.

SCURVY THIEF INVITED TO CALL FOR
THINGS HE CROOKED AT STATION

The crooks knew him and didn't dare to
turn a trick" With his eyes bullying,
when told of the theft a few hours later.
Sergeant Hempel could only say:
BY Yimminy, now what dosyou tink
of that?"
Desk Sergeant Smith across the hall
took a hasty inventory of all the NOV
ables in his office and finally concluded
that the thief had only robbed the report
ers. leaving the furniture of his room I'M
touched.
In connection with the theft of the type
writer from the police station il is inter
eSting to note that the person who stole
it has but little chance TO keep the type
writer from ultimately being returned to
its owner. 1t was a Remington type
writer and the Remington company have
taken the greatest precautions in manu-
featuring its typeWriters: il is hard for a
thief to dispose of one of their machines
On each typewriter the number appears
in several places and some of these num-
bers are so small that they cannot be read
without the aid of a microscope and one
of them is placed on a part Of the type
writer that only an expert knows Each
stolen typewriter is reported to the COM
pany and a list of the numbers of the
stolen machines reported to the various
agencies and the numbers of all second
hand machines that come to them are
compared with this list.
