Among the Institutions which have
been secured through the efforts Of
the Commercial Club in the past is
the Interstate Manufacturing Company,
whose condition is prosperous, prom
Using and pleasing, as shown by the re-
port of committee appointed to in

Other institutions brought to this

There are number of things pend

turned over to the new Board, and no
doubt will develop into something ad-

One of, the institutions referred to is
the Pella Brush Factory, by which a

The Commercial Club is grateful to

TUCSON, Dec. 31-Upon com plaint q G.. 3oletti, of Rossl & Ro letti, warrant was yesterday is. sued by Judge Richey for a Los An. geles travelling man, Charles Burris, charging him with having passed bo- gus checks.
 Burris came through here about December 21, representing the Thom- as Barkley Tea 6 Coffee house of Los Angeles. He did considerable business while in the city, but his finances becoming rather low, he wrote number of checks on a Los Angeles bank, to which he attached his signature, passing them at local places of business. When the checks reached the Los Angeles bank, they were declared worthless. Rossi 6 Ro- letti lost $50, while other business houses in Tucson honored the paper In all about $200 worth of checks bearing Burris' name were cas1eo here.
 It was discovered several days ago that the paper was bogus, but Burris could not then be located. However yesterday morning Mir. Roletti learn. ed that he was in Florence. and i'm mediately swore to the warrant The complaint was placed in the hands ot Sheriff Pacheco, and the authorities at Florence were notified over the long distance telephone to place the man under arrest.
