COACHMAN SOUGHT
ON FORGERY CHARGE
Proprietor of Club Loses $3.50 on
Worthless Paper-Landlady
Also Complains of Be-
ing Vctinized

a warrant has been issued for the
arrest Of Willard Colman who, it is
alleged, left town after passing a forged
check on John Hinch, proprietor of
the Chicago club at 225 West First
street, Monday evening. The check
was for $780, drawn on the Broadway
Bank and Trust company and pur-
ported to bear the signature of f. P.
Hoegee. i is also alleged by Mrs.
Gail 1924 South Hope street, that Col
man owed her about $50 for board for
himself and wife.
On the evening of February he
gave her a ticket to the theater and
during her absence. between s and II
o'clock, took his wife and trunks and
disappeared. Hinch's faulty recol-
lection of the name as Holman and
his impression that the check was on
a Pasadena bank confused the police
in their search for him and his trail
has been completely lost.
Colman was a horseman. formerly
employed by the Tally Ho Stables and

THE VOICE IN THE RICE. BY Cow
erneur Morris, author Of Tom
Beauling. etc. Illustrated by ]. c..
Leyendecker. Decorated by Bertha
Stuart. New York: Dodd, Mead &
Co. Washington: Brentano's.
1t is useless to try to find on the maps
OF the United States and It's adjacent
waters any proof of the existence of
the South Carolina shores Of Lord
Nairn's realm. 1t is true that there are
some dense marshes around the mouth Of
Santee and possibly there are some im-
penetrable mazes there in which a man
might be marooned. However, Mr.. Norris
does not need justification from the atlas
for his story of adventure. 1t grips the
attention from the moment when Rich
ard Bourne fell off the steamer Pickens
on his way up the coast to New York.
1t takes man of exceptional quality to
swim ashore in such circumstances, and
any other than one with a genius for
meeting emergencies would surely have
succumbed to the dangers of the Santee.
Moccasin snakes play an unpleasant part
in the narrative. Craft and cruelty and
treachery combine to give young Mr..
Bourne plenty Of action. while romance
grips him from the moment of his en-
trance into this strange region. His
happy emergence from all of his dangers
with the wonderfully beautiful woman
whose voice. heard through the rice had
enthralled him, satisfies the reader who
likes stories to end well, but It is a mar
row margin which he overcomes. Mr..
Leyendecker's illustrations in color are
exceptionally attractive.

II. G. Wells, author of "TonoBun-
gay" ETC. New York: Duffield

For fifteen years Mr.. Polly was a re-
spectacle shopkeeper in Fishbourne. 1t
requires six chapters for Mr.. Wells to
develop Mr.. Polly to this point from in
fancy through a totally inadequate edu-
cation and a marriage which was chiefly
characterized by a silly lack Of fitness
Were it not for the remarkable quality
OF Mr.. Wells descriptive power, hrs
masterful ability to invest his narrative
with vivid realism. his wit and his ex-
ceptional definition of type. these first
six chapters might have been inexpress-
IDLY dull. As It is the reader goes on
and on waiting for something to happen.
for some justification of this biographical
sketch. Then suddenly things do hap
pen. This embarrassing little English
man develops criminal trait Fortu-
nately his crime causes no harm, but.
on the contrary, benefits everybody and
enables Mr.. Polly to transform himself
from comparatively useless appendage
upon the social system to an active. help
full worker. A charming humor pervades
the entire story. particularly the third
part dealing with Mr.. Pollys adventures
at the Potwell Inn, where he finds him
self.
1t may be that Mr.. Wells has under
taken in this whimsical tale to describe
the average British small shopkeeper. IL
the minor retail trade of England is as
