YOUTHFUL FoReER ARRESTED.
George WeIden, 16, Passed Check for $10 Made Out on Blank Stolen from Employers Book.

George Welden, 8 mulatto boy of Is, who says his father is in the U. S. army, and his mother an army nurse, will have to answer to the charge of forgery in the police court this morn ing, as the result of passing a bad check in the store of Henry Silver man, at 794 Main street, Saturday night.
 The boy, who comes from Chatham, N Y, and is said to have been an in- mate of reformatory nthat state, made some purchases in the store, and produced in payment a check for ten dollars, purporting to be drawn by William H. Squires. a farmer of Pleas ant Valley to and endorsed by one Frank Patterson.
 MT. Silverman made some inquiries, ascertained that MT. Squires was all right, and cashed the check. which ap- pears on the face of it to be perfectly good, and is a very clever imitation of Mir. Squires' signature and a fine piece of work for a IS year old boy.
 Being Saturday night, the game would have succeeded finely, but MT. Squires was in town Saturday, and happened to meet Mir. Silverman on the street. He was told of the check and unhesitatingly pronounced it a forgery Mir SilverInan then went to the police station and took Chief E. H. Richmond down Main street. to look for the boy. Shortly afterward he picked the lad out of the crowd. and Chief Richmond arrested him. At the station he confessed to making the check the blank for. which he took out of MT. Squires' cteck-book.
 Welden, who has Ee en working for Squires. had s16.e0 in his pocket when arrested Frank Patterson the one in whose name the check was endorsed. also used to work for Squires. and was also formerly an inmate of a. re- formatory. There is nothing, however to connect him with this matter.

Authorities Forbid Sunday Football
 Game,

A crowd of several hundred people was disappointed Sunday afternoon when the football game between the West Ends and the Emeralds, trans ferred from Rhoades Field to Windham Field because there were no goal posts on the former, was called off by order of the police authorities.
 The latter have been very lenient in the matter of Sunday sports, but com paints were made about the game, so Chief Richmond went up to the field and told the players that they were too near the thickly settled part of the city and the authorities could not permit Sunday games on that field. The crowd took the setback in good part. akd disappeared without any trouble.

The goods on sale with the dealer. and Snstructs him to take advantage of the public by substituting the false article for the genuine at sveFE opportunity. You can be ask for 8 we11-known product and the dealer tells you he has some thing else that's just as good, or even better, the dealer is going to Maka Q greater profit on that ar t1cie than the one you call for, Will get a much inferior article.
 Some buyers are easily imposed upen and this encourages the 'gat-rich-quick" schemers to in crease: their substitutions. This also discourages the legitimate fnanufacturer who is putting out articles Of merchandise that rep resent honest value Io the con sumner.
