The troubles which drove Charles R. Black- man, grocer, of Ida Grove, Iowa, to shoot himself through the heart a few days ago, were not small emba : ments as was believed.

A report from Des Moines states that Blackman’s defalea this was almost due, which caused Sifackman to take his life. _— \ FOUND AFTER SIX WEEKS. Pierre, S.

Little Falls, N. ¥., May 2.—Addition- al developments relating to the whole- sale forgeries commited by ex-Mayor Hadley Jones of Little Falls are of a most startling nature. His scheme to bunco banks by putting up forged cer- tificates of stock of the National Her- kimer County bank of this city as col- lateral for loans is developing into one of the greatest bank swindling games that has been unearthed for some time. From the evidence now in it is certain that when the full roll call of bank victims is made up it will be found that his winings from bank forgeries alone will be over $150,000. Later de- velopments also tend to show that he got away with the greater part of the money. fATHER AND DAUGHTER BURNED. Flaming Oil Lamp Responsible for Serious Injuries.
