PASSES WORTH
LESS CHECKS
Lee O'Connor, Of Ft. Dodge, Arrested
Last Week, Charged With
Drawing Worthless Checks.
LANDED IN THE COUNTY JAIL
Friend From Fl. Dodge Comes to the
Young Mans Assistance and
Pays AL the Bills.

Leo O'Connor, who has been clerk
ing in drug store at Dunlap, bu:
whose home is at TT. Dodge, spent
most of last week in Denison in al
tendance at the liremens festival, but
wound up his week OF celebrating by
landing in the county jail for passing
worthless checks.
O'Connor seemed to have plenty OF
money while in the city and did not
miss Il single attraction at the fcsti-
val lie tok his acquaintances into
the shows, dined them at the best
cafe in the city and even went so
far as to tip the walters for courtesies
they showed him. When he ran OIt
of ready cash he wrote checks on Il
Dunlap bank, signing his own name.
and had them cashed at the Mllhek
cafe. These checks amounted in all
to $4,000.
Nothin. was thought OF the matter
however, until Saturday when the 10
cal bank, through which the checks
passed. received notice from the Dun
lap bank that Lee OConnor did not
have an account in that bank and that
they could not honor his checks. The
young man was then placed under ar
rest on information filed by the pro-
prietors of the Milhek cafe.
The matter was Strengthened out
Monday without coming to trial when
Mr. Ryan, Of 1T. Dodge, an intimate
friend of the O'Connor family, came to
Denison and paid all the costs, to-
gether with the amount OF the worth
less checks Q'Connor returned to
1T. Dodge imbued with the idea that
it didn't pay to draw checks on a
bank where he had no funds.
