A PACKAGE LOST.
Detectives Are Said to Be Hard at
Work on the Case Trying to Solve
the Mystery.

There is a great deal of excitement
in local express circles, over the dis
covery of the loss Of an express pack
age, which was sent out from Topeka
a few days before Christmas, and
though little can be learned at the
companys office regarding the matter,
it is rumored on. the streets today that
the company has two of their secret
service men here working on the case.
The secrecy the company has main
tanned since the loss has leaked out to
the general public, leads those associ-
ated to be more or less uneasy, as the
express company will follow a matter
of this kind until it has been thorough
ly uncovered.
The discovery Of the loss was made
when the sender. not receiving a reply
of the arrival of the package, forward
ed the accepting receipt of the express
company here in Topeka where it was
sent from, to the party the package
was addressed to, and when the pack
age did not arrive in a sufficient time,
the agent for the company at the des-
tination of the package reported the
matter to the Topeka office, which sent
out tracers but this method failing, the
matter was turned over to headquar-
ters. and the detectives were put on
the case.
Up to a late hour this afternoon the
local office could give no information,
OF rather would not as to the theories
of the company or the officers on the
case, or even the information Of what
the package was supposed to contain
A reporter however, learned the
name Of the sender of the package,
which is causing the express company
so much worry, and was Informed
that the package contained pair Of
the celebrated ninety-eight cent eye
glasses made by the r. H. Baker Opti-
cal company Of Topeka, the same
glasses as jewelers. and others are Of

Their attempts to get away.
Parker was first sent to the federal
penitentiary from Ardmore, I, T, to
serve a sentence of five years for lar
ceny, and was received on February
%, 1900. He was one of the first
men to be caught after the prisoners
had made a successful escape. He
was captured at NortOnville, Kan, on
November 10, three days after the
mutiny occurred. Parker was not
tried with the mutineers in this city,
but was taken to Topeka, Kan, for
trial and sentenced to life imprison-
ment on November 23. 1903.

BEGINS A LIFE TERM.
Had It Not Been for NIutiny Convict
Would Be Free.

Leavenworth, Kan, Jan. Had
not Gus Parker taken part in the big
mutiny of November z. which took
place at the new federal penitentiary,
he would have been released from
confinement in the prison on the 21st
day of this month, but as it is he viii
have to begin his life sentence on that
day. With good time Parker would
have been released in March Of last
year, having at that time finished his
five years sentence. 1t is a noticeable
fact that nearly all the prisoners who
tried to escape on the day of the great
mutiny were short term men and
many of them would have been re-
leased before this time.
Parker is considered to be one of
the most desperate of all the prison
ers- All of the prisoners who par
ticipated in the mutiny of 1901, are
now confined in the new penitentiary
with the exception of a few, who are

COLLECTION OF COINS.
G. III. Wilkes of Clyde Has Over One
Thousand Pieces.

There are few larger collections of
old coins than is found in Clyde, the
owner being G. H. Wilkes, the propri-
etor of the Commercial hotel. He has
over one thousand pieces of silver.
gold and copper. Among his rarest
collections are a 1904 silver dollar and
a 81 gold piece, coined in 1879, OF
which the United States only coined
$40 of them In his collections are a
Confederate States silver half dollar
coined in New Orleans in 1881 IT, Is
said only four of these pieces were
only three in existence at this time,
the fourth one having been lost in the
Yazoo river He has several rareAmeri-
can cents, one of which is known as the
bar cent, coined in 1888. On one side
are the letters U.S.A. while the reverse
side has a picture of 13 bars, repre-
senting the thirteen states.
Another cent, coined the same year,
has a picture of George Washington
on the face, while the reverse side has
a female behind a gate or screen,
holding a pole and olive branch. This
cent, is known as the Triumpho cent.
Another cent In his collection, has a.
picture of George washington on the
shield surrounded by a spread eagle
and the words liberty and security. On
the edge is this inscription: IAN asy-
lum for the oppressed of all nations"
Mr.. Wilkes has been gathering these
coins for years. Many of them are
among the rarest ever coined. They
are worth a visit. The collection Is
the largest and rarest in the state, and
has few equals in the United States.
