Passed Another of the Corners Checks,
 This Time at Poughkeepsie.
 George Huntington, the former hired man employed by Dan Corners, of New Marlboro, and fugitive from justice. wanted here for two forgeries of Con- ners name to checks on which he raised small sums of money, appears to be still at his old practices as word comes here from Poughksepsie to local bankers re- garding another of the Corners checks passed on Poughkeepsie merchant, from whom Huntington is alleged to have received $15 in cash. It will be re- membered that at the time of his for geries here, Armington stole Corners check book on the Canaan National Bank and it was from this book that the Poughkeepsie forged check was drawn. Asl long as Huntington has Conners' check book it is quite probable that he will find people who will accommodate him by cashing these checks.
 Poughkeepsie newspapers can aid the cause of justice and possibly save some of their townspeople from being victim ized by this check swindler by calling 7 the attention of their readers to Arming ton game, and may thus lead to his de- tection and arrest.
 He is wanted by the Cannan authori- ties, who have requested the Chief of Police of Poughkeepsie to watch out for his appearance there, but apparently Huntington has succeeded in eluding the Poughkeepsie officers. Z

ENGLISH AND PERSIAN
!. TROOPS IN BATTLE

Teheran. Nov. A pitched battle
between invading forces Of British
troops, landed under cover of British
warships. and Persian soldiers occur
red today near Kishm in the Straits
Of Ormus. 1t Is reported that many
were killed and that the commander
OF the British cruiser Prosperine was
injured. 1t is expected by diplo-
mats that the conflict will result in a
serious difference between England
and Russia over the latter's attempt
to obtain port in the Indian ocean.
It is predicted Germany and France
will be drawn into the controversy
It was learned later that England
and Russia were working together in
this particular case. It Is understood
they reached a secret agreement re-
garding Persia. 1t has been ANNOUNCE
ed that England's action was taken
''to preserve order in the British
sphere of influence"
Recently England notified Persia
that unless order was maintained
England would invade the country,
restore peace and charge indemnity.
This was done with the knowledge
that Persia couldn't pay and the result
will be the annexation OF some more
territory.

NO RED HATS WILL BE
GIVEN THIS MONTH

Rome, Nov. 4.-For reasons not
definitely known, the consistory
which has been tentatively set for to-
day has again been postponed. Three
times this year the hopes of candi-
dates have been raised and three
times they have been disappointed.
Two or three months ago it was
thought that today had been defi-
nitely decided upon as the date for
the creation of new cardinals, but
it is now practically certain that no
consistory will be held this month or
next. AS the pope has announced
that no religious ceremonies will be
held during 1911, owing to. the fact
that the italian government will be
celebrating the anniversary of the
overthrow of the temporal power of
the church, it will doubtless be at
least fourteen months before the va
cancies in the college of cardinals
are filled.
About three years have passed since
the last consistory, and eighteen red
hats are now without wearers. Many
other vacancies must occur before the
arrival of 1912. 1t is impossible 10
predict who will be chosen as the new
members Of the sacred college at the
consistory which was to have been
believed that the United States will
be given another cardinal, and Arch
bishop O'Connell of Boston. will
doubtless get the red hat in case such
action should be decided upon.

PURSE THIEF NJ =
OF MANY / ES

Loaded down with three purses, a
money belt and s131.25 in gold and
silver coin, John Spitzpolus, Greek
was arrested this morning by Chief OF
Police Gurdane on a charge of steal
ing a purse from the Gritman Broth
ers cigar store. He is being held in
the city Jail and will be given a hear
ing as soon as an interpreter can be
found.
The Greek first denied that he had
taken the purse from the Gritman
store, insisting that he had purchas-
ed it at Hermiston. He therefore re-
fused to pay for it when Gritman de-
manded the price Of the purse. When
the police arrived he changed his
mind and wanted to pay for it, but
was not permitted to do so.
When searched at the police sta
ton it was discovered that he was q
man of many purses as we'll as oi
much money. Most of the money was
contained in the belt around his body
This was covered with rag belt and
on top Of this was a third leather belt
Each of the purses also contained
some money.

ONE ROOM CLOSED
FOR SCARLET Fever

In local school circles a stir has
been on today over the fact that one
OF the teachers in the Washington
school, Miss McLeay, has been taken
i'll with scarlet fever. She is the sew
enth grade teacher in the Washing
ton school and because of her ILL
ness her room is closed today and
will be closed for several days at
least.
In speaking of the scarlet fever sit
uation today w. E. Brock, one of the
members of the board. said:
For some time past the school
board, Superintendent Landers and
all the principals and teachers have
been taking strict precautions so as
to prevent the spread of the disease.
1 feel there is nothing alarming in the
situation and that we will soon have
the disease stamped out. The seventh
grade room at the Washington
school is closed today and this eve
ming the entire school will be dis
missed early so that all the rooms
may be disinfected. We have been
disinfecting all of the buildings on
saturdays heretofore. I do not be-
leive there is any occasion for the
closing of the schools because of the
disease. The teachers are taking the
strictest precautions and send a child
home if it has the slightest symptom
of fever"
DR.. D. ]. McFaul, city physician,
said this afternoon that he did not
consider the situation alarming. With
the close inspection of the pupils and
the disinfecting Of the rooms he be-
lieves the disease can be kept down
He has recommended the closing OF
only the seventh grade room at the
Washington school,
Acting upon the suggestion of Dr.
c. j. Smith, the city physician will
make personal inspection of all the
pupils at the Washington school Mon
day morning. He will look particu-
larly to pupils who have had the dis
ease and may try to reenter the school
too soon .L
