She MUST BE GOOD.
Charity Baucum, Who Beguiled Love
Sick Men, Given an Ultimatum.

After successfully evading the off1-
GERS for six months, Charity Baucum,
alias Goldie Bryde of DeSoto, Kansas,
was apprehended Sunday at her home
by U. S. Need, deputy United States
marshal, and brought to Topeka. Two
indictments were pending against the
woman for using the mails to defraud
and upon her arraignment Tuesday
afternoon before Judge John G. Pol
lock, pleaded guilty and was sentenced
to serve one day in Jail and pay fine
of $500. Later both fine and Jail sem
tence was RENTED upon the promise
that she made never to again beguile
trusting hearts out of money.
Charity Baucum was indicted first in
April of 1906 and later in April of
1907 another indictment was returned
by federal grand jury covering the
same ground, that of using the mails TO
defraud.
The particular crime charged up
against the woman was letter which
was written to ]. B. Collier of Spurger,
Texas, in which she asked for $55 with
which to pay railroad fare and travel
ing expenses for herself and daughter.
Mrs. Baucum stated in the letter that
she expected to marry Collier, wild
over, and with thirteen darlings, six
dearests and eight loves, expressed her
undying affection for the aforesaid
Collier. The epistle was a model or
the heart burning, thrilling kind. Col
lfer believed every word and sent the
s55. Charity Baucum never joined the

the loss of $50 started the law after

Edgar Oliver, Who Made False
Affidavits, i'm Trouble.
Secured Liquor by Giving
Fictitious Name.
FACES TERN In PRISON
Will Be Sent to Penitentiary ii
Found Guilty.
Says He Didn't Understand
Kansas Methods.

Edgar c. Oliver, who claims Cleve-
land, O., as his home. but who has
been in the custody of the Shawnee
county authorities for many weeks.
was placed on trial in the district
court this morning on a charge of
| forgery in the first degree. This forg-
cry charge was made by the county
peace officers because oliver signed
fictitious names to affidavits demanded
by druggists when he purchased liquor
from them. 1t is believed that this is
the first case of its kind that has been
prosecuted in this county, and pos
sibly in the state, since the prohtb1tory
law went into effect.
When Oliver struck town in July
last he made it known in several
places that he wished to purchase
grocery store and meat market; After
looking over a few places he got some
of the proprietors to cash small
checks for him. These checks were
said to be bogus and Oliver was first
arrested for passing one of them on
Mr.. J. NJ. Frank, West Sixth avenue
grocer.
After his arrest for this offense it
was found that Oliver had obtained
liquor from druggists on applications
and affidavits to which he signed fic-
titious names. So the county officials
elected to try him for this offense
rather than on the charge of passing
bogus checks. They wanted to make
a test case on this signing of fictitious
names by those who purchase liquor
from druggists It's been suggested
that perhaps it was trying it on "a
goat" because Oliver had only been in
the city for short time, when as a
matter of fact there are many resi-
dents of the town who are reputed to
have obtained liquor from druggists
on names foreign to their own. Be
that as it may, Oliver was accused of
this heinous offense and placed on
trial for it.
In his opening address to the jury
Mr.. Schenck. the county attorney, told
of divers arrival in town in July and
of his representations that he wanted
to purchase grocery store. Then ne
stated that on two occasions Oliver had
purchased liquor at Kramer's drug
store on East Fourth street and signed
the affidavits for the same with the
name of DIR. Yale and G. W. Yale Mr..
Schenck stated further that evidence
would be presented to show that oliver
had purchased liquor, or beer, in W. F.
Lakes drug store, under assumed names
which he signd to affdavits.
Several witnesses were put on the
stand to prove the assertions of Mr..
Schenck. 1t was divers defense that
he did not know the regulations of
Kansas regarding the purchase of Ii
quor as he was a stranger here. He
understood that the signing of the APP
plication for liquor was a mere form
Instituted by the druggists themselves
he had made no attempt or had any
intention of committing a crime.
Mr. Schenck asked for a conviction of
Oliver on the four counts against him
charging forgery in the. first degree.
In the oliver case the jury brought In
a verdict finding him guilty on the first,
third and fourth counts.
The case will be appealed.
