Hampton in Jail Un m ' der $1000 Bail, Inveterate m Reader of Get-rich-quick fl. Stories, Friends Say j-yr Articles which recently appeared in tW a prominent national weekly maga- , zine containing a history of forgery iM and other get-rich-qulck nehemes, . which were thoroughly read by Wal ) ter M. Hampton, former bookkeeper H for the Johnson-Stevens company ' and the Golden Rule store, now in Bl the county Jail charged with forgery, Hr are believed to have been responsible HI j for leading the young man astray. This is the opinion of persons who H were close friends of the young man H : aiuL know Intimately his craving for H- reading matter pertaining to forgery H and other crimes. Inquiry this H '' - morning made apparont the fact that IB - Hampton was a confirmctr reader o pi ; the particular magazine containing vl the articles anJ that he made spc- Ril cial efforts to obtain a copy of this ! " weekly each week as soon as it was ' placed on sajp in Ogdcn. "Waives Hearing V'i ' ' Hampton waived preliminary hear- l '. ing before Che city court thin morn- :V ' ing when ho appeared on a forgery ' charge. Ball was fixed at "$1000 by J Judge D. R. Roberts, j Jf The articles contained a histoy of. ' i schemes which have been used In jft . defrauding banks and the tactics em- s ployed are surprisingly similar to those adopted by Hampton. 1 hose ' who knew Hampton intimately be fore his arrest declare that he ap V peared to be a young man of ex- ...ji tremely strong character and a de- voted church worker. His sudden plunge from his former method of living Into crime Is believed by them 3 to have resulted from his intense I sturlv of " rnnf idrnpr snhomes .which led him to make the attempt which H resulted in his being jailed. H Hampton boarded in Ogdcn with a Hi family that came here aome time ago H from Baltimore. Hampton became ac- H quaintcd with the family more than H five years ago In the ea3t and they H said today that ho was a young man H of unquestionable character. Ho H joined the L. D. S, church in the H cast and Bince living in Ogdo.n has H been. a prominent worker, a teacher H and a master in the Boy Scouts. Ht Appears Worried About ten days ago. according to Hf - the family, Hampton appeared to be- H come worried and talk about nothing H but money and money matters. Ho H spoke about his coming marriage H with a Lehl. Utah girl which wis to I be held in Juno and about his fi- H i Aaiices and scorned to be extremely nervous, fie purchased a houso in Ogdcn and paid a small sum as first payment. It Is believed that Hampton, almost crazed with worry as to how to gain finances for his coming marriage, read the articles in the national magazine and after sleepless nights In which ho threshed over In his mind his financial condition, decided to take the plunge. Ho adopted a scheme similar to that explained .in the articles, but failed to carry it through to success. Good Reference. R. W. Stevens, mauager of the Johnson-Stevens company which is the general offices of the Golden Rule stores, and where Hampton was arrested yesterday morning, said to day that the man had come there for work offering exceptionally fine ref erences. The recommendations as to his character were signed by a Utah senator and other prominent men of the state. Further inquiry beforo Hampton was finally employed brought replies which left no doubt as to the integrity of Hampton, Mr. Stevens declared. no SWAINS FIGHT TO 'DEATH FOR LOVE OF PRETTY GIRL NEEDLES, Gal..
