hooks and corners of the lawn the
most inviting little seats, over
which Pickering lanters casually
winked diaboIical eyes, beckoned
to the merry folk to come and sit
awhile. In the hallway and on
the veranda dancing was indulg-

young ladies. each taking turns
at the keys, then, later on, came
the most delicious and palatable

EATON, O., July 16.-To enter upon
an indeterminate sentence imposed by
Common Pleas Judge Risinger upon
his confession of a forgery charge, h.
c. Earle, So, alias CARMEL, no home,
was taken TO the state penitentiary
Wednesday by Sheriff Werts. In
Earle's case the term can not be less
than one year or more than 20.
When Earle dropped into Eaton
few weeks ago he represented him
self the agent of a concern operating
five and ten-cent stores throughout the
country. He wanted to secure loca-
ton upon which to start a factory for
the manufacture of novelties for his
companys stores. He later made sew
eral purchases at local stores and Of
fered large checks in payment. Mer-
chants grew suspicious, and authori-
ties were notified. Earle skipped soon
afterward, but was located at Oxford,
where he was arrested by Marshal Ac-
ton. The checks purported to be sign
ed by a Chicago construction company,
but investigation failed to establish
the existence Of such firm.
Earle, highly educated, claims to be
a graduate of Columbia University. He
says he has many rich relatives in
Pennsylvania, who doubtless would
have come to his assistance had they
known his trouble.
