4 FOOLISH FORGER
 FATALLY FINGERED
The Arrest Yesterday of Henry Smith at Glendale.

Henry Smith. Harris or whatever | his name may be. is a disgrace to the order of forgers and utterers of fictitious checks with which organiza-
 tion he enrolled himself a week or | more ago. He performed the first
 part of the work all right. but he fell down on the getaway and is now in the county jail. His was a most un-
 accountable blunder, for he could have
 been more than half way to Europe l before his crime was discovered. Harris has been employed during the cantaloupe season as a packer for Lish Pool near Glendale. A week ago last Thursday he had a check for $l5 cashed at BOehmers pharmacy. The
 check bore the signature of MT. Pool | and was drawn on the Valley Bank. In the regular course of business it was deposited by MT. Boehmer at the Phoenix National bank In due time ] it reached the Valley bank and it 1 was not until yesterday that it was l discovered to be q forgery. At first there was no probability that Harris, who by the way appeared on the face of the check as Henry Smith and who ] had endorsed that name on the back | of 1t, was anywhere in the country. Mir Boehmer reported the matter at | the sheriff's office and Mir. Pool was
 called up by long distanced telephone. | He replied that Harris was still in | Glendale. A telephone message to Constable Evans there directed his
 arrest which was made within a few | minutes and Deputy Davis went out ! after him.
 In the meantime a warrant charging | him With forgery was issued by Jus ! tice Parker. He will be arraigned to- morrow.

A certain young gentleman well known in official circles in these parts. one having more or less tO do with match-maklng in general though no date never having successfully ar ranged one for himself. is the subject of a joke now going the rounds. He was himself the sole pOssessor of the facts, but he enjoyed it so much he told a friend in strict confidence, and now everybody knows it.
 Shortly after his return from his va cation he made a dinner engagement with his steady and arranged to meet her at the postoffice at the din ner hour. Both were prompt, and he excused himself for a minute while he mailed a letter. Returning to the sidewalk, he hastily noted several wo- men about the lobby door. One young lady who in general appearance and attire resembled his company seem ed to be moving off toward the Hotel Adams quite rapidly. Without taking a second look around and being agi- tated lest his girl should get away, ap- parenely fearful that she would if she had a chance, he took after the figure of the retreating maiden with throttle open and the high speed lever in gear
 Almost a block was traversed before the young gentleman could acquire an angle that presented a prolific view, apprising him that he was on the wrong track. Then he reversed his en- zine and sped back across country, cutting for trail. finally arriving at the postOffice door again, to see his invited guest calmly waiting and watching, and wondering if he was equally as susceptible to every piece of cotton fabric that chanced to be waited down the street.
 Then n cy went to Ii UT and lived happy ever afterwards.

There is something very pitiful
about a girl. She wears calico. but

be- observed at dinner, a reception
or a ball, although she never attend
