A Clever Forgery

A Clever Forgery.

EMPORIA, Kan., March 28.--A man representing himself to be W.A. Gower, presented at the First National bank here a check for $65 drawn on the First National bank of Hutchinson by M. Gower, bearing the indorsement of Judge E.B. Payton. It has developed that Judge Peyton's signature was a clever forgery, and that the forger had worked banks all over Kansas in the same way.
