MAN ALLEGED TO
HAVE RAISED 81
BILL ARRESTED
Henry SaIazar Is Taken Into
Custody by Local Police;
Treasury Department viii
Investigate Case

A man who first gave the police
the name Henry Sanchez and later
admitted his correct name is Henry
Salazar and his residence l422
South Third street, was taken into
custody Friday night charged with
having raised 81 bill to $40. Of
ficer Fred Renfro made the arrest.
Miss Mabel Hays, cashier at the
Lyric theater. reported to the .po-
lice Friday night that a man had
come to the window and attempted
to pass a 81 bill on which an o
had been carefully r ,sted. Officer
Renfro was sent to the theater,
Miss Hays said the man had enter
ed the building, AS the officer
was about to enter the theater to
search for the man, SalaZar came
out the door and Miss Hays identi-
fled him as the man who had at
tempted to pass the bill on her.
Miss Hays said he had been in the
theater only short time.
According to the police a num-
ber of these bills have been passed
in various places about the city
during the past week. They say
the work has been done so artis-
tically that close inspection is re-
quired to detect the raising and
that they pass when given through
ordinary channels.
A raised bill had been passed at
the Pastime theater Thursday
night and all motion picture houses
were notified particularly to be on
the alert for such attempt. Miss
Hays scrutinized every $40 bill
which was presented to her Friday.
She told the police that the man
she later identified had come to
the window and attempted to pass
a raised bill. She said that she
asked him where he obtained the
bill and that he said he had re-
ceiyed ii from a bank In Socorro.
She said he had told her he lived
in Socorro and also said she had
talked him out" of giving her the
bill, at the same time handling the
matter j. such manner as to ally
any suspicion he might have Of be-
ing suspected.
When the man was searched al
the police station the police were
unable to find any raised bill, al,
though he did have a good $40 bill
After the man was arrested the
United States treasury officials were
notified. Roland K. Goddard, spe-
oial agent for the treasury depart
ment, with headquarters at Dem
yer, received the report from the
government. He was in tele-
phonic communication with the
city police yesterday and notified
them he has sent a man to Albu-
querque to investigate the case.
Goddard is the government Of
fetal who is in charge of the in
vestigations of the recent sensa-
tional holdup at the United States
mint in Denver. He told the police
that it is probable the thugs who
staged that daring holdup will be
taken into custody within the next
few days.

Industry, in our country, when

of confidence in the future of

We are confronted with the
fact that drouths and storms dur
ing the past few years have de-
creased very appreciably the num-
ber of sheep in the sheep growing
areas of the west. Lack of sta
bility in the industry, coupled
with liquidation demands which
forced young ewes and ewo lambs

to do with the present tremen-

A sorry mess, all.
In a way Sikh stands out as the
greatest tragedy OF the year. Con-
sldering the chance he had to win
fame and glory for himself, his
native race, his adopted country
France--and for the boxing game
in general, it is pathetic and more
that he should have abused that
chance.
on the other hand the public has
only itself to blame. Its proness
to "fall' for built-up matches, for
"made" fighters and it's tendency
to hero worship without sane reas-
oning brought this Sikh affair and
others of a similar nature about.
Place the blame where you care
to.
Suffice it to say, Sikh stands out
as the supreme goat, tragedy or
sensation OF 1922.

Z CONDEMNATION
s j | 7 s FILED IN
DISTRICT C0u RT.
County Seeks to Condemn
Property for Park Pur-
poses; City Seeks Storm
Sewer Right Way

Two suits OF great importance to
the City of Albuquerque were filed
in the district court only a short
time before court business for the
year closed yesterday The first
suit was entered by the county
commissioners, for the county of
Bernalillo, and the second by the
City of Albuquerque.
The suit filed by the county was
to obtain certain property for an
entrance to the proposed Rio
Grande park. II was filed by Dis
trict Attorney &. 3. Garcia, for
the county commissioners.
The city filed a condemnation
suit on this same property some
time ago. Owners of the property
filed demurrer to the suit on
tho grounds that the City Of AL
buduerque has no jurisdiction for
condemnation, since the property
lies outside the city limits. Dis
trict Judge M. e. Hickey sustained
this demurrer.
The city might Iave filed an
appeal on Judge Hickey's ruling.
However, it was considered more
advisable for the county to enter
the suit. since there. would be
great delay in case the ruling was
sustained by the supreme court
The suit for the Rio Grande park
site property is filed against A..
Huning, Ernestine Huning, w. L.
Trinble. Martinez and the
Spanish Methodist church. The
complaint alleges that the plain
tiffs and defendants cannot agree
on q proper compensation for the
lands and asks judgment con-
demning the premises.
The suit entered by the city is
to obtain a right OF way for the
storm sewer which is TO be run
to the river. The city commis-
sioners have received numerous
reports to the effect that this storm
sewer will be badly needed during
the flood waters next spring.
The condemnation proceedings
were filed by City Attorney Il. b.
Jamison, with Bert II. Calklns,
city manager, representing the
city. Suit is filed against o. f.
DdIuONdlt II, Il. bdIultt leudu ..
de Candelaria, il. f. Reynolds, Il.
S. StoVer Rev. Juan Slower, j. II.
Salazar, Sophie Osterkoh, Julia
Balduini, Louis Balduini, Marga-
ret Balduini and Charley Balduinl,
It is generally understood that
there will be little opposition to
this suit, 1t was necessary to file
It in order to gain clear title TO
the property with IL. least posi-
BILE delay, The allegations In the
complaint are practically the same
as those contained in that filed by
the county, except that they refer
TO different parcels OF land and
the purpose for which the land is
required Is different.
In the suit filed by the city the
city asks that three disinterested
freeholders be appointed as COM
missioners to ascertain and assess
the value of the property sought
to be condemned and to ascertain
the damages and benefits to the
land

Then came the blow.
He announced publicly that his

heard the public urging him (Siki)

his best and win, he said. The bout
ended when he dropped Carpenter

CHARLIE JONES IN A
NEW FOX THRILLER AT
THE PASTIME THEATER

Coming to the Pastime theater
today is new Fox picture, star
ring Charles Jones. 1t is called
"West of Chicago" Supporting
Jones is the vivacious, winsome
Renee Adoree, whose acting in
Fox productions of late has been
the subject of O great deal of very
complimentary comment.
According to advance notices,
this photoplay is filled with thrills.
The action takes place near the
Mexican border. TO quote the
producer:
Startling scenes follow each
other In rapid succession. A pow
erful sweep OF dramatic strength
carries the mind OF the spectator
right along to the end. Romance
Is deftly woven in the story, and
there are many touches of COM
edy."
In previous photoplays Charles
Jones' acting has been particularly
noteworthy. If all the other ele-
ments required to make a good
motion picture are on a par with
the work OF this star, a night of
real entertainment Is assured
theater-goers.

DOWNFALL OF ROME is
FINELY PICTURED IN
DeMILLE'S "MANSLAUGHTER''

There were no photographers to
record the dress and customs of the
day when the barbarians over
threw ancient Rome. Nevertheless,
Cecil B. DeMille has produced an
historically faithful reproduction
Of this for his latest Paramount
picture, "Manslaughter," coming to
the "B" theater today for a run of
five days.
The episode IN question is his
torical cutback, which vividly de-
picts the descent Of the barbarian
hordes upon Rome. Weeks of re-
search work on the part of the
director, scenarist and art director
preceded the filming of tile scenes.
Leatrice JOY. who is one of the
principals of the modern portion
Of the story, is the hostess at a
lavishly beautiful Roman bac-
chanal which is interrupted by
Thomas Meighan in the role of the
leader of the Goths. Lois Wilson,
John Miltern and Casson Ferguson
are the other members Of the not
able cast who appear Il this Sc
quence.
A strikingly realistic gladiatorial
combat is one Of the many inter-
esting features Of the bacchanalian
entertainment. Although this epi-
sode required more than a week
to film and kept nearly 1000 peo-
pie employed, 1t will occupy the
screen for only few minutes. 1t
Is used to point n powerful lesson
and serves to draw an interesting
comparison between ancient Rome
and modern America.

LONG ISLAND MODEL
FILM COLONY UNLIKELY
No Confirmation of Reported
Plan of Will Hays.

The report that a model motion pic
ture colony will be started on Long
Island under the supervision of Win H.
Hays. new head of the film industry, in
order to counteract the reputation which
is generally attributed to Hollywood and
also TO take advantage Of the convenient
supply of actors here, could not be con-
flrmed yesterday. Eugene Zukor. assist
ant to his father, Adolps Zukor, president
Of the Famous Players-L -Lasky Corpora
ton. said that he had heard nothing of
such plan.
Its all bunk said Samuel Goldwyn,
who was chairman Of the committee that
brought Mr.. Hays into the film business.
Instead of Long Island having been
found suitable place for picture maxi
ing, It was recalled that the Famous
Players-Lasky company has abandoned
plans to reopen its studio in Long Island
City. which was to resume operations on
April /. Now it's reopening has been
postponed again, though II is said work
may be started there again in August.
THE is the second year that the big
studio, which cost $1,000.000, has been
idle.
1t was estimated that the land needed
for the model movie city alone would be
more than 500. 900. and the erection of
suitable houses would run over 81 1.000,-
600. At the Office of Joseph =. Day, who
was reported to be looking for a tract
of several hundred acres on the north
shore Of Long Island for such a purpose,
IL was said that in Mr.. Days absence
nothing could be said.
