Sheriff Captures Alleged Forger
 The arrest of Joe Martinez, charged with raising two cheeks issued by B. B. Crosby and pass ing them on local merchants, was effected by Sheriff R. L.. Newman last Saturday morning at an Indian began near Old La guna in Valencia county, New Mexico.
 The arrest of Martinez was the culmination of chase that started on Wednesday of last week. when Ben Slade. foreman for MT. Crosby, swore to a. war rant charging Martinez and AL fonso Ranjil with forgery. The sheriff followed the trail of the men from Holbrook to Gallup; thence to Grants; from there to| Cubero, where all trace of Ranjil| was lost. From Cubero Mar tinez travelled alone to Old La guna and when arrested was washing dishes in the hogan of a Laguna Indian.
 Sheriff Newman recognized Martinez from the discription furnished him by Mr. Slade and also by a Stetson hat purchased fromL. Caldwell Co.,. in Holbrook. He placed him under arrest and started at once for HoIbrook, ar irving here Saturday evening.
 Martinez protested his inno cence to Sheriff Newman, and also at his preliminary trial We'd nesday before Justice Boyer. However. he accompanied the sheriff without resistance.
 While Martinez did not pass either of the raised checks. one of the checks was issued to him and it is alleged that he raised l both of them and gave them to RanJil to pass. The fact that he wore hat secured by one of the checks is damaging evidence. at least it was sufficient to warrant his arrest and detention.
