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. ‘ e e P @ men 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. ——— > P O e Col.
