1t is expected that Garry Hermann
will be reelected to lead the national

Clever Forging
Game Is Worked,

One OF the most clever pieces of
roguefy worked for some time in the
vicinity of Waterville Was brought to
light, Friday morning. when it was
discovered that check signed Daniel
b. Mason and drawn for SO on the
Peoples National Bank of this city,
had been forged by man supposed
to be T.. w Taylor of Boston, who
had eashed the check at the store OF
K. II. Mosher. Belgrade. Taylor, who
claimed to be an agent for cheese
cutting machines and scales called at
the store of 4. Is. Mason in Winslow,
the early part of last week and en-
deavored To sell Daniel 3. Mason, a
member of the firm, machines and
scales. The man VAS in the store
probably about il minutes, but WAS
unable to induce Mr.. Mason to buy.
Having just paid a bill with a check
Mr.. Mason had left his book on the
counter a few days previous he
had obtained a new one. The re-
naming blanks in the old book he had
torn out and placed in the back of the
new one. The checks evidently
worked out or the book was deliber
| litia oBtlltu tfit NiA
by Taylor. The loss was not dis
covered until Friday when word
reached the Winslow store from the
bank about the suspicious check. In
Vcstigations showed that checks 5l57
and 515S were missing and that the
one given to Mr. MoSher at Belgrade
WAS numbered 5157 and bore the name
of A. X. Mason on the end near the
stub. The check was dated Sept. IL
and drawn in favor of h. w. Taylor.
Mr.. Mosher was visited at his store in
Belgrade by the man and placed an
order with him for a machine and i
small case for $15. The stranger in
turn asked to have the check cashed
and the storekeeper felt that the arti-
| Gle was genuine and readily paid him
