coming so widely known tbat stranger
are Imposing upon him. He ha been
in tbe habit, for several years, during
hia time as landlord at the Nash, of ac
commodating his guest by Indorsing
draft and check for them, and not
until last week did he lose a penny by
so doing, but now be is shy just $25 by
his over Indulgence In kind-heartedness.
A young man, giving hia name
as Harry O. Collins, was stopping at
the Nash last week for a few days and
as "Shorty's" thirst parlors are next
to or a part of the hotel they naturally
became acquainted. Just prior to Col
lins leave-taking for northern points
Mr. Hamilton was asked to indorse a
sight draft on Wm. Wadule, ot Rose
burg. Mr. H. demurred for a while
but being bo well acquainted with Wad
dle and knowing tbat Collins had form
erly been in bis (Waddle's) employ he
bitched bis name to a draft tbat drew
from the bank $25. The draft proved
to be a forgery and Mr. H. was out the
gold shinners. Collins is said to have
worked the same scheme o: er al Horn
brook, where F. T. Fredenburg put up
$10 on an Ashland draft, and again he
worked Lou Heberlie, of Grants Pass,
to tbe tune of $25 on a similar forgery.
