FIERCE BLIZZARD RAGED.
Heavy Fall of Snow Reported
Throughout Eestern States.
New York City was visited by a snow
storm Wednesday morning, the ‘‘beauti
ful” falling at all intervals of several
hours. The cold was as raw as a Decem
ber day.
Lispatches from points in New York
state and points in New England also
report snow and bitter cold at those
points, From Buffalo comes the report
that nearly a foot of snow fell in that city
during a blizzard which raged for several
hours. ‘

A Surprise Coming
The idea has probably never occurred
to the purchasers of scalped tickets that
they are liable to prosecution for forgery
when they sign another persons name to
transportation.
The law in some states, and especially
in Georgia, is very strict and explicit on
this point.
Thousands of men who would not dream
of forging another’s name to a bank check
have committed forgery in dealing with
scalpes, and have been just as guilty and
as subject to prosecution for forgery in the
purchase of a signature to ticket from
a scalpor as if they had passed a forged
check on a bank.
The public will be startled some day if
-a grand jury indicts a man for forgery in
connection with the purchase of trans
portation from a broker.—Railroad Re
cord and Common Carrier.
