BUNCOED.
Two Young Men Put Up Money for
Situation They Don't Get.

Frank johnson and S. J. Neel of To-
peka have been f1eeced out of $205 by
two SharperSs of Kansas City. They
saw an advertisement in a paper stat
ing that the Hampton Printing and
Manufacturing company was desirous
of enterprising young men who wanted
to canvass for books and had money to
invest. The investment was for the
purpose of showing the good faith of
the parties. The two young men went
to the office of the company and were
offered good positions. Neel was to be
private secretary to r. B. Nisbet and
Johnson was to be ]. 2. .McNulty's right
hand man. The money was deposited
with Nisbet and McNuIty and Johnson
and Neel were ordered to report for
work on November 1st. Bright and
early Monday morning they reported at
the office of the company. There were
others. About ten persons besides
themselves were waiting for the pro-
prietors. They waited in vain and fin
ally reported the matter to the police.
1t was found that the two men had
skipped after having worked as many
victims as they could. johnson is out
S105 and Neel is minus 500. Johnson
formerly worked at the asylum as fire
man and Neel was a conductor on the
city railway.

The second part of the game was all
K. US way. While the Lawrence boys
failed to make the big end gains they
made in Iowa game, she went through

HUNTING HER CHILDREN.

For two years Mrs. Anna McCulIom
and Fourth, has not seen either of her
two children, Thomas, aged land Fred
aged 9. Two years ago she allowed the
she claims, with the understanding that
she would be allowed to see them when
she wished to. Mrs. McCullOm says
that she has not seen either of the chill
dren since the day she gave them over
to the charge of the home and that she
does not know where they are. Today
her lawyer, W. I. Jamison, brought
suit of habeas corpus before Judge Ea-
zen to have her children restored to
her custody.
One of the great difficulties orphans
homes and similar institutions have to
encounter is that after a woman has
permitted her children to be adopted
by other families, she changes her mind
and wants the children back again.
