FLIM-FLAMMERS CAUGHT Two bunco men who gave the names of Frank Whitney and James Evans were brought up from Doming by Sheriff Lockhart and placed in the county cooler charged with working the flim-flam racket, the making change puzzle, whereby the merchant in changing $10 for them gets mixed and they come out $5 ahead. They worked the game all right on two Demingites, Messrs. Byron and Hogdon, but were caught dead to rights at Smith & Fleishman’s store.
