And Passed It at Fisher's Hardware Store

RECEIVING $17 IN CHANGE

Two Men Were In This Deal-They Are the Same Men Who Raised Two Other Bills

---

The two men who are passing raised bills here were yet in the city Saturday afternoon and victimized John C. Fischer, the hardware merchant. One of them went in and bought a dinner pail tendering a 50-cent piece in payment. About 4 o'clock be came in again to look over some tools, which he had looked at when he was in before. While he was looking at the tools another man came in and said, "Are you going to buy those, John?" John thought he was and did, tendering a supposed $20 bill in payment for about $3 worth of tools, receiving the change. When Fischer banked his money during the evening the "$20" bill was thrown out as being a raised $2 bill.

If any of our business men are tendered raised money they should not lose sight of the man who tenders it until the officers can reach him.
