YOUNG YOLLMAR GUILTY..


Judge Hazen Sentences the earn EFT
Preachers Son to the Reformatory.
There was a very brief session of the
district court this forenoon about IL
O'Clock.
1t was called for the purpose of al
lowing Luther H. Vollmar to plead
guilty to forgery in the second degree.
Vollmar is the young man who forged
the name of "A. Lutz'' to a check for
$3.50 on a Miami county bank and
cashed it at James Sproat's store. The
check was protested and as young
VoIlmar was in the city still he was
hunted up and arrested
He was bound over by a justice court
some little time ago and today con-
cluded to plead guilty and take his
chances.
He was sentenced to the state re-
formatory at Hutchinson as he is but
Is years of age.
VolImar's father who is a highly re-
spected citizen of Garnett and a Meth
odist minister was present at the court
room and is a splendid looking man.
Young Vollmar appeared in the court
roomspick and clean with Wei
1aundered shirt, and a summer suit of
light stuff of fashionable cut and
pointed well polished tan shoes.
In sentencing him Judge Hazen said;
You are to remain at the refofma-
tory until the officers of that institution
conclude you are reformed and dis
charge you. They cannot, however,
maximum term prescribed by law as
sentence to the penitentiary for the
same Offense which in this case is five
years. Your term of confinement there
will depend entirely on your behavior.
The purpose of the institution is to re-
form and even if you are released be-
fore your maximum time has expired
aud you get into trouble again you can
be arrested and returned to the insti-
tuition without further. process or trial
The courts are disposed to give all
criminals, particularly young men, a
chance to reform and for that reason I
prefer to send you to the refOrmatOTy
instead of the penitentiary. IT, how
ever, after this at any time you come
before this court for resentence you
will be given the limit at hard labor.
I hope this experience will be a les
son to you and that you will be in the
future what your parents have tried so
hard to make of you, a useful citizen"
Young VOllmar has been in similar
scrapes before but has heretofore es-
capped serious punishment.
