BOGUS CHECK ARTIST
WORKS SMOOTH GAME

Tallahassee, Nov. Just before
dark Saturday night, well dressed
and apparently honest young man,
went into one of our prominent
grocery stores, ordered $1.75 worth
of groceries sent to 100 n. Duval
street, to Mrs. w. F. Norton, and
requested that 1915 in change be
sent alon with the goods, and the
lady would return a $40 bill.
The porter who delivered the goods
was met at the door of the house by
the same young man, who gave him
. check on w. L. Norton for $1,000
and received the change. On at
tempting to deposit the check, the
bank reported it worthless, not
knowing any such party.
The grocer then went to the speci-
fed house, found the goods under
the back steps, the building empty,
and no appearance of the young
man.
The police are attempting to find
the thief, but the bogus check artist
has no doubt made good his escape.
