YOUNG GIRL CASTING CHECKS
WITH MOTHERS NAME

Checks, purpoting to have been
signed by her mother. well-known
Paris woman residing on High street,
have been cashed by various Paris
merchants in the last few days for a
young girl of the school age. The
checks have been pronounced for
geries when returned to the Paris
woman, who upon investigation, to
her horror, found that the forger was
her own daughter.
For the protection Of the public
the police have the young woman
under surveillance, and If any more
of the forged checks turn up, she viii
be taken into custody. The amounts
which the merchants had unwilling
ly advanced on the supposedly good
checks. have been made good by the
girls mother, but IL the incident
happens again, 1t is likely there will
be prosecution in the courts.

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT

At recent meeting OF the Board
of Officers of the Paris Christian
Church, the following resolutions OF
respect to the memory of Mr.. John
T. Hinton, for years one of the faith
full and most earnest members Of the
church, were read and adopted by a
unanimous vote:
LAS members OF the Board Of OFF,
GERS of the Paris Christian Church.
Of which body Mr.. John T. Hinton,
ST., was long and honored member,
we desire to express our deepest re-
greet at his loss and to give express
sion to our feelings Of appreciation
for his great service and worth to the
church.
For over forty years he has been
a member of this church and through
all these years his devotion has been
beautiful and inspiring. We recog-
nize him, not only as one of the
church's most distinguished mem
bers, but likewise as one of Gods
truest noblemen. He loved the
church with an ardent devotion and
was never absent from its services
from choice. He leaned upon it FOL
support and expected through the
church to enter the external home al
last. He found his greatest joy In
giving and serving for his glory.
"And now that he has finished his
testimony here and gone to his home
above, we wish to record here ouI
deep sense Of loss in the departure
of this great and good man, whose
untiring zeal for the church and un-
tagging interest in it's work have
done so much to make the church
what it is to-day.
HE was wise counsellor, a
helpful advisor and a safe guide in
hours of trial. His gentle wisdom
loving sympathy and good judgment
fitted him prominently for the place
which he occupied in the church as q
leader in all its business and socta
and moral interests. The community
has lost one Of it's most distinguished
citizens, the church an invaluable
member and the hctue one WHOSE
place can never be filled.
1--WE would express our sinceres
sympathy to his family. The los
| here is irreparable. But to have haf
such a father and such a husband Il
distinction enough for any family
The community, too, will miss hin
because he was interested in every
thing that looked toward the better
ment of mankind. But the churcl
above all else will miss him becaus'
of his minute interest in every de
tail of it's welfare and work. 1t wa
his very meat and drink. His low
for II was beautiful. His interest il
| 1t intense. His service for 1t wa
untiring.
1.-The memory of his devotion t.
his church it an inspiration to US
his fellow workers. And speaking
from the shadow of that memory w
;. call upon Our Heavenly Father Z
help us to be more faithful and Ell
cient in the service of our Lord an
Saviour. This great and good mai
has gone away from us. but his 1nnu
ence fingers with us to cheer an
help. -
1--WE deplore his loss, we honor nj
memory, and we confidently expec
to meet him at no distant day In tina
home above where paintings are n
more.

Ted Rice Rides Two Winners on
 Opening Day

Baltimore, Nov. 15,-BoWle opened it's fall meeting of 4 days with d pls crowd a heavy track and brlsk specu- lation yesterday afternoon Ihere were three stake events on 'he program. They were the 1naugural, for all ages at seven furlongs, Whlch was won by kaShmir; the Chesapeake, for 3-year-Olds at one mile, Whlch was captured by Drummond, and the Pads and Fancies, for Allies and mares of all ages, at six and one half furlongs, which was gathered in by Ophelia..
 Ted Rice, one of the best jockeys in America, rode Kashmir and Ophelia It was the irst time he ever had the mount on Kashmir. Kashmir is one of the laziest horses on the turf and will not race his best until forced to do so. Rice is as strong as was Snap per Garrison in the heyday of that jockeys prominence and compelled KashmiT to show his best speed.
 The start was not one of Edward Tribes best, and Charley Leydecker, the favorite had his chance spoiled. Penrose showed trace of that great speed which enabled her to win so many races last year. She broke in front and acted as the pacemaker to the homestretch. Pastoral Swain was second and Irene well up.
 Kashmir was far behind. He pin- ned his ears back as soon as the bar rier went up and resented Rice's vig- orous efforts. But the jockey kept to his job and finally got his mount to do his best. Rounding the turn for home Kashmir moved into fourth place and when strengthened out for the final run moved up fast, and catch ing the tiring Penrose at the sixteenth pole, won by two lengths. Pastoral Swain beat out Penrose by five lengths for the place.

New York, Nov. 15.-When an- nOuncement was made that Wilde would box man named Benny Vogel in Milwaukee on December 1 the i'm pressiOn was created that the t1yweight champion was picking an opponent who would be eager to subdue. In or der to dissipate that view of the case Wilde and his managers have insisted that the best bantam in the west be selected to meet the champion, not only as proof that he desires to meet the ablest men in America, but also as a means of attracting the largest pos- sible crowd.
 Therefore it has been decided that Wjlde's opponent be selected from a list including Jack Sharkey of New York, Joe Burnham of Chicago and Frankie Mason of Indianapolis Any one of this trio should make very in- teresting bout With the champion.
 While waiting for the Milwaukee promoters ot reach a definite decision 12 or 15 other offers from the west are being held up and the managers of the champion declare they are get ting tired Of the delay and will make other arrangements unless the Mill Waukeeans develop a bit of speed.

New York, Nov. 15.-The Columbia freshman football team defeated the Wesleyan yearling eleven at South |field yesterday by a score of 10 to '. It was the first victory that a Colum- bia first year team has won over a Wesleyan combination since the sport was resumed on Morningside heights four years ago, and the Blue and White youngsters had wild celebra- ton after the contest.
 The Columb bia youngsters won by the margin of a goal from field, kicked in the second period by Captain Burtt from the 20 yard line, but the value of this goal did not become apparent un- til the final quarter, in which the Wesleyan cubs hammered their way for 50 yards and a touchdown through the Blue and White eleven. The Co., lumbia team was the first to score, getting a touchdown in the opening quarter.

TYLER LOSES TEETH
Dentist Tells Cubs Southpaw Lame Arm Was Due to "PuS Sacks" So Lefty Has Them Extracted.

: Chicago, Nov. 15.-George Tyler, southpaw pitcher for the Cubs, had an early app / ltment with dentist yesterday and at it's conclusion he had only two teeth left in his mouth. The pitcher, who did little work for his team last season because of pains in his arms, spent several days of the present week in a hospital at Roches- ter, Minn., where practically every ex- pert at the institution examined him. All except one pronounced his con- dition "almost perfect" The expert who made the unfavorable report eX- amined Tyler's teeth and declared that the lameness in his arm came from "pus sacks which had formed on his gums. After removal of his teeth Tyler would be in better condi- tion than he ever was, the expert de- clared.

NOT PARALYZED.

New York, Nov. 15.-Although a physician at Portland, Me-, declared that Eugene Brousseau, Canadian boxer, had suffered an attack of slight paralysis of the face and arm follow ing a. bout with George Chip, Billy MoorehOuse, manager of Brousseau, denies the doctors assertion. Moore- house disagrees with the physicians diagnosis and says that the boxer has a slight attack of neuritis which will not interfere with bout with Levin sky in Montreal next Monday. Moore house hardly can be blamed for re- fusing to believe that his promising boxer is suffering from so serious an ailment as paralysis.
