COUNTR FBI HUS.
Our town is just now excited over the
bold attempts of counterfeiters. Below
is a long report of the full proceeding
thus far. On Friday evening last two
• hi n try me n from Forsyth county camo
to tnVTii under tin pretense of getting
guano. Thrir names were Van Spears,
and < liarlir Bcutn-tt and they lived on
Elsie Lewi* farm which is rented to Mr
Win Emerson Smith, about 20 miles
east ot this plant m-«r Sawnecs Moun
tain in Forsyth county. During tlm
evening they were seen together quite
°l <‘u a.id l iter Bennett went to Turk &
(J.'li in ins, drug store and Inquired for
galvanizing solution, not having any
thing of tbo kind prepared Dr Coleman
sold him ten cents w.-rtli of mercury,
(quicksilver). Alter this ho went to
J - \V. Jarvis j -w.-lry shop and while there
bought »f ,l/i Jarvis 23 c.-nts worth of
s dll'imi for plating purpo-n s which Mr
Jarvis ha-i * receipt for making and that
will give brass, cupper, etc an appear
ance t-f silver. From Micro ho went
across to Coggins & Son nnd a lied for a
pieco of flannel about 2 in.-In s wide and
il was given to liioi and no charge undo.
Bennett thanked thorn and 1. It, saying
lie would return and trade some with
them. Bennett and iS'pc.u# were not
se. n for some time aft.irwarJs—not until
dark came and Menu.-it (George Wash
mgton like) went back to Coggins &
Sou and bought ten c.-nts w rth of to-
l>.coo paving tor it with a bright ’.caden
dollar; Mr A. B. C ggins was in the
dark at the rear ol Ins store and had no
change and Initrlcd it to John to make
the uhangu. Join at mice detected the
dull ring and clumsy feeling and pro apt
ly denounce t it ss a counterfeit: Ben
nett claimed to know no'hlngof it say ng
hug.it it "f a man that evening win
Ini.1 since gone out of town and who
said lie got it at lb 1’. Jones store; not
having any . tlict in 'Hey(Y) tho tobacco
was handed li.ee,
From thi* John Coggins, who by the
way has proven himself some what of a
detective, became 8 ispiclinis and related
his Ideas to Deputy .S'lieriff—Marshal
Curtis and others and they . tonce began
to watch. Bennett passed on up the
street in un uneasy sort of away and
sauntered cautiou*ly into the c.mfcc
tionery store of T. P. Carpenter where
he bought live cent* each of Sugar and
candy paying for the sano in two nick
los. lie remained there a lew minutes
and then went to tho depot wlmru he
tried to buy a watoh of Frank Davis col
but for huote reason ih’y did not trade
While away nt the dep >t the two nicklo
he had previously spent at Carpenters
were examined and found to be a miser
atdu repsontatation of the genuin
When Bcnuett returned to town lie was
arr stid »n<l confronted with the niokles
and said lie got them «f Spears who was
then ov.-r Jonas store. B-mnutt was
then cmried where Spears was. While
searching Bennett Spears was standing
with his hack near tile lire and was set'
to throw something ill the tire, almost
us quick as thought the tire was put out
and Spear* arrested by Sueriff Giaitiling
In the ashes was foin.l $1 13 which
Spears hud thrown there. Upon th
person of Beunett about ¥23 was foun
and a small saw conceded in a seam
of bis vest. Soinu leaden money w
also iouud in thoiv box of provision
The coiu tound were of the same metal
as that which Uluii.U had attempted to
p is* and was of the denomination of one
dollar and nicktcs anmuntiug to ubout
#27,80. They were very poorly made
und easily detected. Bjuuelt ami Spin
were then carried to jail and ugain
search. .1 when one dollar was found in
Spears shoe.
Saturday morning Sheriff Orsmling
telephoned Hon. Emory Sneer. U. S
Att’y the fact* nnd asked to kniw what,
should be d>nu witli them. Gen.
Longstrcot, U. S. Marshal, replied t-
hold them that Deputy Marrhuls would
be nftcr them Sunday morning.
N"t satisfied with what had been
found on these men, although evidence
to convie' could have ii.-en easily rs ah
picious associations. How easy to get !•
but more difficult to escape! We
deeply sympathise with each but
especially do wo sympathise, with Spears,
and Ins family, yet sympathy docs no
go al. We have Imd several ta'ki with
licnnett and Sucars since their arrest, an I
particularly inquired as to how they
came by the nioucy, the moulds, tho
saw, the mercury, etc. and what they
intended to do with it. The money they
said was got by making change first
with one aud then another, and they
did not remember from whom either
piece was riceivod and they did not
know it was coonterleit; Bennett says
the moulds were left nt Ids houseby seine
one but lie does not know by whom or
wheu, and knew nothing of their being
their; lie says be got tbo uiurcury etc,
“not to rub up money 1 ’ but tj brighten
watches, chains, etc, ho had no watches
tc, himself did not k.iow that* his
neighbor* did hut thought ho might
lind a chance lo use it some tunc; he says
lie hud the saw to--well he could’nt
ell why lie had it ami it is supposed ho
llier coiutomplated sawing into some
store or else sawing out of some jail—ho
now li is u clnuco to saw out of jail hut
lias no saw. Spears threw what he hail
mt he lire because tie was scared surprised
alarmed yet lie did not know it was
counterfeit. Strange that they should
not know the counterfeit yet spend it
nly at night and good money during
uy light—well tlisro a good mmy
strange things about this mutter,
Altogether their case looks rather
gloomy from their stand point untoss

confronted with the mould und told how
they canto here lie had nothing t> my.
Bennett’s wife, a yoimg girl about
17 years old, came down with Mr. Curtis
to see her husband behind tin b irs—
t'.iey have no children now. Bennett is
known by other names, is about 22 years
old, nnd is from Teuiies*eo where lie
says he married this girl whose maiden
name was Alsobrook; they were carried
from Atlanta to Forsyth couuty about 8
mou/li* ago in an almoBt de*t.tute condi
tion by Mr Smith who had routed them
a portion of the Lewis farm. He was
looked upon by his neighbors w th .-ut
picion and consequently was g ven ratti
er a wide berth, however be geuer.-tlly
managed to work him-clf into almost
every crowd by his bold speech aud
irec manners.
Van Spears is ft man about 30 years
old and has a wile uiui live children,
lie ha* lived ia Forsyth county about 24
yi-ars and lias always been looked upon
as an honest uprigut citizen und a good
worker—a faithful coulcderato soldier.
He married the daughter ot James l’hil

He owns no laud but bus sum.: suck.
During the w inter months he has been
running an engine at Red, Phillips &
Tribbles’ saw mill and has lived happily
at home with his good wife ami lovely
children, not having ever hud a law suit
of any kind or been imprisoned. Not
withstanding the 1'iyiug appeals of bis
affectionate wife, aud kind friends, lu

waived a hearing and plead guilty to
having the spurious coins on hi* person,
but ii«ked that lie bo allowed to intro

One evening last week a man cama
down on the trim from Ball Ground
wi Ii a #100 chic'c on the First Chat
tanooga Tenn. lJank.drawn byJ. W.
letter 16 Co. and undo payable to Dr
Jolio W. Krai I or order. Tlie man pre
sented the clitck to Scott and Keith
saying he wa* the I)r Krall, aud that ho
wanted to trade some and asked if tbry
would cash the balance. They replied
that they would and then Dr Krall
I -ought #10 worth of clothing, shoes etc,
ami was given Ij)l00 in cash ana the check
with his endorsement on the bock w -a
banded over. So m afterwards Jos Keith
carried tlie clu ck to R. T. Jones exchange
office to get it cashed and of course was
asked to endorse it; be was told thut
the check did not look like it was good
from the way it was drawn and the cir
cumstances by which they came by it.
From this Scott A Keith became some
what alarmed and telephoned the Chat -
tanoogu Bank as to tho standing of Vet
ter & C>, checks: the bank teplied they
were goo I; yet they was not satisfied anil
the following night went to Ball Ground
with a warm it in their posession .to sco
this Dr. Krall about the matter. When
Dr Krall was told their suspicions ho
said the check was good aud paid them
buck the #10D and told them to keep
tlie check aud see that it was. This all
seemed fair enough yet it wasonly a bluff
as Inis been shown. J. W. Vetter &
Co replied to ft telephone message that
they bad issued no cheeks to Dr J. W.
Krall and that nil their checks were
stamped and numbered, As a matter
of cour.-se Dr Krall is now gene and is
notonly wanted to appear hero but m
Jasper whtre wo understand he ebtaiued
money 01 two similar checks. Scott A
Keith are out about #7 cost so they say.
We understood that this Dr Krali was
arrestcl in Pickens county and got&wsy
tram tke bailiffs by aaying some one
would be killed before he would go,
consequently they let klmg-i. Mr J. A.
Slums was arrested as aa accomplice and
on bur, lay had a committal trial where
ti the aid of C. D. Maddox, Attorney,
settled aad dismissed.
th* cosj was
others to beware fiout strange and suv Beware ot sharpen.
