Jimmie Johnson, negro, is confined in the city jail with a charge of forgery recorded against him, following his arrest yesterday after an alleged attempt to pass a raised one-dollar bill as a five to a west Main street apple dealer. He will be given a hearing before Recorder Graham Monday morning.
Local police were kept active Saturday with various arrests of a more or less minor nature. At midnight the usual list of drunkenness and gambling charges indicated that a full docket would be had by Monday morning.
In a raid on a gambling game in Hayti yesterday the following negroes were apprehended: Celop Garey, Jim Thompson, Atlas Nelson, and Thomas Robinson.
