MRS. A. REYNOLDS
TRIED FOR FORGERY
CASE HAS SOME VERY UNUSUAL
FEATURES.
Defendant Was Positively Identified
as the Woman Who Went to the
Lackawanna Tmst and Safo De
posit Bank ond Obtained Money
Theio But Sho Positively Denied
Ever Having Been in That Bank
and Succeeded in Establishing a
Fairly Good Alibi.

ot the commonwealth nK.iinst Ml Ala
inanzo Reynolds, or t'hestnut stieet,
"West Scrnnton, who was charRed with
forgery. The foiseiy 'insisted of
binning her husband'B -..tine to a le
celpt and drawing S" from the Uick
uwanna Tiust itr.. Safe Deposit com
jiany's bank. The husliuiul had an ao
lount at that bank.
Mis. Reynolds was Identified by Pay
ing Teller Hummler as the woman to
whom he paid the money. She posi
tively denied receiving the money. Sho
had never been In the bank in ques
tion. Sho fuitheimoie pioducrd a
number of wltne.st.es who es-tabllshed a
lalily good nllbl.
Mis. KoMiolds did not seem to be in
any wise affected by the position In
which .she found heibelt when ni
laigned ycsteiday. Hhe sat at the de
fendant's table all day with her hus
band und two little daughters and
i hewed gum with great Industry and
even refused to dicaid her wad of con
solation when she went to the stand
lo testify. She was vory composed and
f-elf-rellant when on the stand. The
Juiy retired soon after 4 o'clock and
had not reached a eidlct up to tho
hour of adjourning.
COMMONWEALTH'S CASK.
The testimony of the commonwealth
was to the effect that on March 21 last
the husband of Mrs Katherlne Maud
Reynolds had money on deposit In the
Lackawanna Tiust and Safo Deposit
company's bank. On that day a wo
man went into the bank about 10
o'clock and produced the bank book
of A. Hey nolds. She said she was the
wife of Mr. Reynolds and wanted to
draw $r.O. Pnlng Teller Hummler,
who positively Identified the defen
dant as tho woman who called at the
bank, told hei she must obtain an
order for the money from her hus
band. Ho made out the form of the
order and gae It to her. She said
phc would get the signature ot her hus
band to the order within a few min
utes. Retween ten and fifteen minutes
later she returned to the bank with
the signed older and was paid the
monev after she had endorsed the ol
der on the back.
Mr. Reynolds was put on the stand
and said lie did not sign the older,
that it is a forgery, and Prof. M. II.
Piouty, of the penmanship depart
ment of the International Correspond
ence school of this city, gae it as
his opinion that the signature "A. Rey
nolds" on the face ot tho older and the
endoisement "K. M. Reynolds" on the
back weto written by the same person.
About noon on Match 21 Reynolds
called at tho bank and was appiised
of the fact that money had been drawn
by his wife. He denied giving the or
der and that afternoon Mr. Hummler
went to the Reynolds lesldence and
Identified Mrs. Reynold as the woman
to whom ho paid tho money. Sho
thereupon denied having eon at tho
bank or having drawn out nny money
to be chaiged to her husband's ac
count. THAT BANK BOOK.
Evidence concerning the manner In
which the bank book picentcd bv
the woman at the bank could get out
hldo the Reynolds' household was very
meagie. When Re nolds was on tho
The doctor looked wise and said it was
"nervous indigestion."

the bank book was on March 8, when
ho went to tho bank and drew Bomo
money. He usually kept tho book In
n trunk, but wns unabla to say what
ho did with it after he went to the
bank on March S. He has never seen
It since.
Tor the defense the husband testi
fied that ho was in tho house until
about ten minutes after 10 o'clock on
the morning of March 21. His wlfo
was in the house all morning and he
left her there when ho went out
Cleiks In Clarke Brothers' stoio and
Rlumo's bakery testified she was In
these stores about 11 o'clock on the
morning in question. Prod II. Jones
nnd William Faulkner swore they
saw her on Chestnut street about tho
time she was supposed to be at the
bank.
Mis. Reynolds went on the stand
and denied going to tho bank, signing
the paper or obtaining the money. Sho
explained in detail where sho spent
the morning of March 21. After leav
ing the stand she wioto her signature
on a piece of paper for the benefit
of the juiy. It resembled only in a
slight degree the signature on the
paper on which the money was ob
tained f i om the bank.

This is an invitation to "a sheet and pillow case party"
that has the swing now at our Cotton Department. Cot
ton prices have been on the up grade ever since January.
A pillow case costs from 3c to 5c more today than it did
then, an increase that, in the cotton trade, means a great
deal. Yet the prices that we give you today are as low
as the low priced record of last January. The explana
tion? Never mind it. Isn't the fact enough?
The cotton used in these is one of the best known
makes in America and the very best grade that is made.
Here Are the Prices :
Bleached Pillow Cases 42x36, lie. 45x36, 12Jcj 50x36,
54x36, 16c. Special 45x36, lie, Bleached Sheets 63x90,
72x90, 45c. 81x90, 50c. 90x90, 55c. 90x99, 65c.

These prices rule for the present, but under the existing
conditions of the cotton market we cannot guarantee them to
last long.
