man by the name OF Robert Legrand
entered plea OF guilty to the charge
OF forging the name OF Frank Smiley

and the other for $40. The offense Is
alleged to have been committed on
July s at Wells, where Legrand went
to spend the fourth. He had been
working for Mr.. Smiley In Starr Val
ley, and the latter advanced him
some money that he might celebrate
Independence Day. giving him check
for SIS. Legrand went too rapid a
pace and soon found himself out OF
funds. He wrote the two checks and
IN due time they reached the bank
where they were pronounced forger-
les, When Legrand was arrested he
admitted his guilt and waived prelim-
rtsary hearing in the justice court OF
{, Wells before Judge Jacoby. He will
be sentenced this evening to term Of
on to fourteen years in state prison.
This is about the twentieth case where
the officers have secured pleas OF
guilty within the past year, and the
saving to the county of trials will
probably total $4,000 to 500, 900. Can

INCREASED PRICES
DIMINISH SALES
SAY FURNITURE DEALERS OF
THE COUNTRY. BUT TO TEST
THEORY. o. NJ. PRYOR WILL
SELL GOODS AT COST.

Reports from retail dealers in all
sections of the country indicate that
sales of furniture have diminished
to a remarkable extent during the
past few months. Fewer homes are
being refurnished and the demand
for new pieces has slackened. Those
who have studied the matter say
that the falling off in sales is not to
be attributed to money stringency
but results instead from the increas-
ed prices which manufacturers have
demanded for all home furnishings
during the past two seasons. The o.
NJ. Pryor Furniture Company has de-
cided to test this theory through a
sale of furniture at cost for one
week, commencing next Monday.
The sale will include everything in
the store, and as much of the stock
was ordered before the manufac-
turers advanced their prices, Mr..
Pryor gives assurance that it will
be the greatest value giving sale
ever conducted in West Florida and
one which everyone who is in need
of furniture should profit by. Full
particulars regarding the bargain Of
ferings will be given in an advertise
ment in tomorrow's issue and the
sale will begin Monday and continue
one weekday.

Dorothy Dalton is starred in the
Triangle-Ince-Kay Bee drama to be
starred at the Isis theater Monday.
This is tense story of big bust
ness. Having been assisted to a big
position through the answering 10y
atty of Ellen Holton, quiet but un-
usually efficient stenographer, Lar
nv Thomas, an ambitious country
youth, decides to throw Ellen over
and marry the daughter of the pres
ident of the company, despite the
fact that he knows Muriel Brooks to
be reckless, pleasure loving para
site. In company with one of her
unscrupulius companions Muriel
gets into her fathers office at night
to rob the vault. A quarrel devel
ops between the girl and her accom-
plice,. and during the ensuing strug-
gle Muriel is shot and killed. Larry
Thomas, who has been working late,
rushes in. But the real murderer
has escaped, and when the police ar
rive they find Larry bending over
Muriel's body. Ellen Holton is the
only other peSson in the office. Lar
ry is held for the crime, and Ellen
is to be the chief witness against
him. Just before the trial Ellen
persuades Larry to agree to their
marriage in Jail. Then the case is
dropped, because a wife cannot be
forced to testify against her hus-
band. In the end Larry tracks down
the real culprit and makes amends
to the brave girl who was willing to
sacrifice everything for him.
