men that something is about to happen

Beware Of the counterfeit dollars
like one discovered today in Salem. 1t

little darker color than the regulation
silver dollar, and although properly
milled the edges are q little wider than
real dollars. IL is a trifle light in
weaght and lacks the real ring Of sill
yer when tested. II is dated 1902 and
thought to have been made in Portland
as a eounterfeiter was recently arrest
ed there.
