SOMEWHAT OF A FOUNDER.
Chase County Young Man Confesses
to a Theft.

Emporia, Kan, Dec. 1.-The Gazette
says: 1873 en+-
The loquacieus young man who was ar
$3.50 diamond ring from A. C. Tolbert of
Chanute, confessed that he stole the ring
and has told the whole story. The young
mans home is in Chase county and be-
cause he begged the officers to keep his
name from getting in the papers, he goes
by the simple name of John Doe. He has
a wife and child in Chase county, and
both his father and his swife'S father are
influential men, but evidently the prisoner
is somewhat of a rounder. He says he
stole the ring because he was hard up
for cash. He was employed the Toll
bert farm by the month, and when he left
the farm a few days ago he took with
him a $3.50 ring which the owner had left
in his room. He came to Emporia after
making a trip to Kansas City. At Kan
sas City he sold the ring to a jeweler for
500.
The owner of the ring accompanied by
the Chanute marshal, Mr. Meaner, came
to Emporia last night and after a short
consultation with John Doe, in which it
is said they promised to do the right
thing by him if he told his story he con-
fessed and the owner consented to file a
light charge of petit larceny against him.
John Doe says he is a tile layer, but
has been working on the Tolbert farm
running drill engine on land leased by
a number of Emporia men. Tolbert, it is
said, has the drilling contract for the oil
well being sunk at Strong City. Mr.. Doe
says his wife is graduate of the State
Normal school, and because she has many
friends here he withheld his name.

SAYS POLICE HELPED ABDUcToR
w. III. Taylor Charges Them With As
sisting i'm Taking Away His Child.

w. H Taylor, who lives at the
Adams house in North Topeka, is on
the war path. He says that he has
| been mistreated blythe Topeka police
and makes a pretty good case against
| them. He is the man who was con-
cerned in a struggle for the possession
of his 12-year-old daughter last Tues
day and he charges that the Topeka
police aided his wife to abduct the
little girl.
Mr.. Taylor says that his wife re-
sides in st. Joe and that the decree of
divorce provides that the children
shall be allowed to remain with which
ever parent they choose. He had a
few days ago secured possession of the
little girl and MES. Taylor came to To-
peka for the purpose of taking the
child away from him. He says that
he was on the way to the police sta
ton to deliver the girl to Police
Matron Thorpe until the question of
her possession might be determined by
the courts. On the way to the sta
ton Mrs. Taylor made an attempt to
get possession of her daughter and
during the controversy Policeman
James came up and took hold of Tay-
lor and said that he wanted him.
Taylor replied: 1T want you. 1 am
on my way to the police station to
secure protection James took the
child away from Taylor and turned
ner over TO the mOther and the whole
party went to the police station. James
took Taylor into the front office and
made a show of booking him but did
not do so. Meanwhile Mrs. Taylor
the child and her attorney were
piloted into the court room and
through back way out into the Jail
yard and allowed to go. When Mr..
Taylor was released his child was
gone. He charges that Chief Stahl as
well as Policeman James and other
officers were in the plot to abduct his
daughter.
81 would like to know what kind of
police force you have in this town."
said he. 81 went to them for pro-
lection and they assisted in the abduc-
ton of my daughter without process
of law or any authority whatever. In
addition to this Policeman James
threatened several times to strike me
] was not locked up and no charge was
preferred against me. I was simply
held long enough to permit the woman
and her attorney to get away with my
little girl

BURNAM ISN'T SATISFIED
SIS 81 - -s.f-ftfs
Sues For Interest as Well as the
Principal.

The jury in the case of Frank Bur-
nam of Omaha against the Kansas
Union Life Insurance company in the
United States court returned a verdict
on Wednesday night giving the plain
tiff $4,750 Mr.. Burnam sued for $4,000,
of which $4,000 was prospective dam
age, or money that Mr.. Burnam could
have made if the Kansas Union Life
Insurance company would have carried
out it's contract. This part of the suit
vas stricken out by Judge Pollock.
The sum of $1,000 was therefore con-
tested as actual damage for unpaid
services. The jury gave Mr.. Burnam
$4,750 with no interest for the twoy years
since the case was actionable. Anotha r
suit was fled this morning to recover
interest at 6 per cent.
The Kansas Union is the company
which succeeded the Kansas Mutual,
of which Mr.. Burnam was agent at
Omaha. The National Life absorbed
TIE Union and inherited the suit. L.
a. Stebbins, now general counsel for
the latter concern, was here from Chi
cago to defend the case. Clifford His
ted of Kansas City and G. A. Mccoy
of Omaha represented Mr.. Burnam.
