George Brown is in the county Ja l
wnitiug for a preliminary hearing on
a charge of forgery.
Urowu wrote out two checks sign
ing "John Peterson" to each. Tk
checks called for $23 each in tft
coin of the realm. ,
Brown tackled the Alliance hotel
for cash on one of the checks but the
man behind the counter was not ac
quainted with Mr. Brown nor did be'
recognize the signature of "Job
Peterson." Therefore, there wa
nothing doing and Brown trapsied te
another place. He entered the store
of E. Essay in the 100-block on Bo
Butte avenue. He essayed to make
some purchases and tendered the bo
gus check In payment expecting te
get real money in change. Hut lb
check was such a bum looking docu
ment that the proprietor of the store
became suspicious and refused te
part with chattels or cash.
The police were told of the inci
dents and nabbed the get-rtck-quleJk
man In short order and now he wilt
have to explain matter to the eoesri
and Jury. The work of executlar
the check was done In aucb a bund
ling manner that it la no wonder the
writer of the checks was soon placed
where the "dogs could not bite Mm."
Since Brown haa been In Jail th
officers have discovered that h suc
ceeded in cashing a check for $22 7
at Render's place on Box Butt ave
nue. To this check Brown ..tened
the name wf Clark.
