Jordan Tp. Man Robbed in Chicago.

“Say, will you cash a check for me,” asked Peter E. Nafziger of Goodland, Ind., as he approached Policeman Malone of the Maxwell street station and drew a checkbook and a fountain pen from his pocket. Instead of cashing the check the policeman took him to the station, where he is being held. Nafziger tola the police he came to Chicago to see his wife, a patient in the Presbyterian hospital, but stopped in several saloons and when he left found he had spent or lost sls, whfle his watch wae missing.—Yesterday’s Chicago Herald. Mr. Nafziger is a well known Jordan tp. farmer, and is not a bunko man, as the above article would infer. His wife is in the Presbyterian hospital in Chicago, and if he asked to have a check casned he had the cash In the bank to take care of it. <
