BIG TIMELY DRAMA COMING
SOON.

Manager Reed announces that he
will shortly have the pleasure Of pre-
senting the Frank keenan, special pro
duction in six parts entitled ''The World
Afame'' a drama, strong, compelling
and artistic, with a message, but not
with propaganda Here is a page taken
from actual life; and from it has been
evolved a big, throbbing, human drama,
so intimate in its relation to the life at
the moment that its spell is most com
polling. It is big in its emotion, big in
the problem with which it deals and big
ger still in its ultimate purpose, which
proclaims: Here is the answery' It
offers remedy for the countless con-
coded evils existent in this Work-a-day
world In tense situations, in graphic
action, in evenly sustained interest
throughout, it is a play calculated to
spread it's own attractions through the
best advertising play can enjoy spoken
praise from entertained and enlightened
audiences.

GETS FORTY DOLLARS IN FIVE
DOLLAR CHECKS FROM
GROCERIES
LOOKS FOR "FRIENDS" AMONG
DOCTORS FOR BOGUS
as SIGNATURES

A total of forty dollars was cleared
by stranger who visited several
New Uhn and Mankato groceries, last
week. He appeared first in New Ulm
where he passed three forged checks
on Saturday, October rs, and then ex-
tended his field of operation to Mankato
where he repeated the performance five
times, two days later. The checks were
made out for FIVE dollars each and all
signed By some doctor of the city visited.
Evidently, everything had been well
calculated by the forger making his
operations successful in every detail
and giving him sure chance to escape
with his booty.
Visits Groceries. E.
With firm check of the Meme Cloth
ing Company in his possession, which
he received on request at that store by
one of the clerks the stranger entered
the Red Front Grocery and presented
the bogus check signed DR.. ]: Vogel in
payment of some small purchase. The
check was made out in favor of A. Ander-
son and accepted in good faith. Mrs.
Dongus' store was visited next, the
circl instances of the action being about
the same. The third victim was VIM A.
Pfeferle whose clerk also put too much
trust in the financial transaction of the
visitor. The check presented in this
store was made payable to Al L. Berry
the signature being the same and State
Bank blank being used -. "
Young Man. a.
From the description given it appears
that the stranger was a we'll dressed
young man who took every precaution
to make his getaway safe. In each
store, he put on different appearance,
it is said by the police. A blue top
coat, a khaki overcoat suit were the

things worn by him. The police were
first notified by Mrs. Dongus who being
a little suspicious about the affair had
asked DR.. Vogel whether he had made
out the check, and receiving the answer
that he did not know any thing about
writing it. This was about eight O. clock
that evening too late to block the safe
departure of the stranger from town.
Appears In Mankato.
Five checks, totalling $25 were re-
Gently passed by an unknown stranger
on business places in the north end of
the city, says the Mankato Free Press
in its October 80 issue The checks
were all for SIS each and the man who
cashed them, according to reports,
made some trifing purchase, paid for
it with the SIS check and pocketed the
change.
Checks for SIS each were passed at
the Sievert Olson grocery, Otto KAN
merer's grocery and confectionery and
at the Braun and Schulze grocery. 1t
is reported that two other checks for
the same amount were also taken in
payment at two other business places.
They bore the signatures Of DR.. c.. N.
Weyer and DR.. J. H. James. The police
were unable to get the man before he
left Mankato.
Pays Visit to Faribau1t.
"Anderson-Berry" made his appear
ance at Faribault last Saturday Just
one week. after he had made the rounds
in New Ulm. He's wanted there by the
police department for forging three
five dollar checks. The checks came
in to DR.. E. X. Clements on Monday,
each made for the sum of SIS to GA.

ments. They were cashed at the Steg-
