number, but it is certainly very small.
If Judaism is only religion, then re-

ON a FORGERY CHARGE.
Ed Fetty of jefferson County Is in
jail in Lawrence.

Lawrence, Kan, Feb. 13.-Sheriff
Woodward. assisted by the officers of
jefferson and Leavenworth counties,
arrested Ed Fetty and lodged him in
Jail here. Fetty is member of a
prominent family in Jefferson county.
He is charged with forgery.
The warrant for his arrest was
sworn out by George w. Snyder. who
claims his name was forged to the
note. Some time ago Snyder attended
a sale made by Fetty's father and
bought a team of horses, giving his
note for $175. This note was sold to
the Tonganoxie bank, it seems. and
days ago he got notice from the Peo-
pies bank here that the note was here
and about due. He was surprised at
the note being in Lawrence, but came
in and paid it. A day or two after
ward he received notice from the Ton
ganoxie bank to come there and pay
the note.
Snyder knew something was wrong
and at once began investigating, the
result being the discovery of two notes
exactly alike, where he had given but
one. He consulted the officers who
ran the matter, the arrest of Fetty
charged with forgery. being one result
note to the Tonganoxie bank and
made an exact copy of it, which he
sold here. He intended it is claimed,
to take up the spurious note himself
before 1t came due, but failed to raise
the money and discovery resulted.
People who claim to know say
Fetty has done things like this before,
and that duplicates were made and
sold of at least three notes from this
sale. Fetty is a young man. married,
and of a good family. He will be ar
raigned some time today.

MIR. DEIMAs WOULDN'T TELL.
jerome Spent Tuesday Trying to Filat
What the Defense VIII Do Next.
(Rv Winifred Black.l

New York. Feb. 13.-District At
torney Jerome, sleek, smiling and ex-
pectant, spent the dreary day Tuesday
leaning acres SIS the table and exhaust
ing every means in his power to call
for Mr.. Delmas' trump card And Mr.
Delmas, calm as a summer morning
and mysterious as the sphynx, spent
his day refusing to see the lead. Mr..
Jerome's one aim in life just now
seems to be to know what the defense
is going to use for a defensive weapon
so that he can go out and practice
with that particular instrument of de-
struction and get his hand in before he
has to show his proves to the jury.
Mr.. Delmas' one object in what
might otherwise be dull and uninter-
esting string of days, appears to be to
keep the knowledge of that weapon or
weapons from the counsel for the
prosecution, if he has to keep his ex-
pert witnesses jogging up and down a
moving staircase of explanations and
qualif1ca tons for the rest of their
natural lives. Mr.. Delmas being the
challenged party, has a right to the
choice of weapons, and he has let it
be plainly seen that he is going to
keep Mr.. Jerome guessing as to how
he had better practice up.
DR.. Evans went on the stand early
in the morning and led us, by his
words, out from the crowded and
sitting court room into the dreary
