The leap year social given by the
Epworth League was decided Sue
cess in every way. The parlors were
tastily decorated and thronged with a
merry crowd. The readings by Mr..
Akers and Miss Maud Gregory and the
musical numbers by the Misses Greg

applause. Many OF the beautiful bas-

With several cases of smallpox in
one family at Milton somewhat of a
scare Is now on in the east end town
and the proposition of how to handle
the tuation has been put up to DR..
d. j. McFaul county physician.
1t Is in the home of a. family named
Harrison that the once dreaded dis
ease now has a foothold Several of
the children are i'll and in consequence
thereof others living in the town are
becoming anxious lest the disease
spread.
Last evening DIR. McFaul gave in
structions that the home where the
disease now exists be thoroughly
quarantined so as to prevent others
from being infected. He does not
con ider the situation sufficiently Sc
rious to necessitate the closing of the
schools in Milton.

A CRUDE ATTEMPT
 AT CHECK RAISING
Evidently First Work in That
 Direction.

Manuel Ochoa has a good deal to learn Yet before he will become an expert forger. His familiarity with commercial paper is quite rudimen- tary. He was given a check for $3.50 by George Boston and thereupon he set out to multiply it. The check had been made out with a so-called indelible pencil. Ochoa smeared the purple of the pencil all over the document and then set out to make the figures and the amount more to his liking. He changed the written amount to twenty three using an ordinary pencil Likewise, he chang ed the figures and then he did a curious thing. Evidently distrusting the credit of MT Boston at the bank on which the check was drawn he wrote below his name, the words, "by Mrs. G. M Boston" That was done with a black lead-pencil the name of MT. Boston having been written with the indelible pencil
 The next move was a particularly foolish one. Though the check had been mad payable to him he en- dOrsed it with the name of Juan Carrezas. Having fixed it up to suit him he took it to Mrs. sam Ballsum who keeps small general store on South First avenue and tried to make some purchases with it.
 It presented so many unusual feat ures that Mrs. Ballsum was sus- piciOus and decided to submit the check to expert examination. She took it to Col Johnstone who gave lit one look and directed Constable Murphy to bring in the forger.
 k The one wise thing that Ochoa did tin connection with this affair was to
