Recognized by Cashier.

Chautauqua. Kan, May civilian
Tenant, under arrest in Denver,
charged with the robbery of the Citi-
zens' State bank of Chautauqua on
April Il last, is we'll known here. He
has been missing since the robbery.
Cashier WalterhOuse of the bank,
shortly after the robbery stated posi-
lively that Tenant was one of the two
men who held him up.
The hOld-up of the Citizens State
bank was one of the most daring ever
executed i'm this part of Kansas. Cash
Ter WalterhOuse had scarcely opened
the bank and placed MS currency on
the counter ready for the days bust
ness when the two robbers entered.
There was one customer in the bank.
The robbers, both of whom were well
dressed. made their may to the cash
ier's window. One of them drew a
pistol and ordered WalterhOuse to
throw up his hands. The other then
ordered the cashier and his customer
into the bank vault and slammed the
door shut after them. After locking
the bank doors and drawing the cur
tainS, the robbers proceeded leiSuTely
to loot the bank. Into an old gunny
sack all the cash in sight was put.
Then taking their leave the robbers
passed down the main street of the
town. speaking to a number of ac-
quaintances. A few squares distant
they mounted horses and rode in the
direction of the Oklahoma line. Posses
were organized and a number of times
they had the men surround
ed but the robbers shook off the pUr-
suit and escaped.

Protest Against Probate of viii.

Charles w CottIe yesterday filed in the
district court strong protest in oppo-
sition to the probate of the will of the
late Thomas +. Cottle. An application
to admit the will to probate was filed
in the same court a few days ago.
The reasons for the opposition. as set
forth in the papers filed yesterday, are
that the document which is purported to
be the will was not signed by Thomas
E. COttle, but by John Nav. who as
sumed to act for the deceased. The pc
tition estimates the estate as valued at
$1,000. of which 5000 is real estate and
the remaining $1,000 personal property.
Petitioner, in showing why the widow
should not be appointed administrators
of the estate, AYERS that the surviving
wife" is incompetent to execute the du-
ties of Administrative of the estate by
reason of her improvidence and want Of

own appointment as administrator.

Woes of the Collector.

The dog question which puzzled Judge
Murphy sitting in the city court has been
decided and the important point made
that the dog tax collector has no right
to enter upon the premises of a dog own
er for the purpose of impOunding a ca
nine upon which the tax has not been
paid. The case arose over the dog tax
collector going to the home of Louis
Wessler for the purpose of securing a
dog upon which it is alleged the tax had
not been paid. Wessler took the collector
by the arm and showed him to the gate.
The collector took this as an assault and
swore out a warrant for WessleTs ar
rest The court has now ruled that the
dog tax collector exceeded his authority
and WessIer was discharged.

My dear heavenly Father-Why dident
you tell the truth to Adam and Eve about
the apple so that the Devil would have to
lie to them, or either keep still? The best
people in Los Angeles would have thot
more of you, If you had. Most all the peo-
pie at Watts like you, but there are not SO
many and they are quite dark. There Is
only about $50 people at Watts and there
is $50 thousand at Los Angeles Why did
you take one of Adams ribs to make Eve

l should think you wood of taken one
OF his fingers. How many times have you
operated on people, that way? Can you
operate on them without hirting them?
Who was the girl that Cain married in the
land of Nod? l cant seem to understand
whether she was an old maid or a grass
widough and 1t even puzzles Papa Joe
says it is plain enough for anybody that
has faith. He is going to explain it all to
me some day when he Is specially inspired,
after he stays to communion. Do you think
1t is all right for them to eat the body and
drink the blood of Jesus? Why dident
Jesus get married and have a home and a
wife and baby of his own? Wasent he
as good as Roosevelt? Was he Preasti

Are you married?
Would you have struck Roosevelt died. IL
he had not put 'In God We Trust" back on
the coins? Joe says you would Of Why
don't you strike him ded for Icing about

I'll bet Jim Jeffries can lick Sampson.
Jim lives next to us but l spose he and

A new LIFE OF JESUS
Modern Version of an Alleged Ancient
Romance Now Accepted by Many.
(By John f. Clarke

(By John F. Clarke)
Jesus Christ was born in a barn and be-
came a transformer of one night stand
Eotoriety
Joseph Carpenter stood sponsor for him
after a dream seance with an angel of the
Lord.
Jesus was heralded by a jack olantern
that looked good to several Wise Guys,
who lived insomnomanical lives, and well
coined a diversion. They came to the &C.
couchment and witnessed the Saviorical
Birth. They were traditional first-nighters
and their bald heads made a splendid
showing from the gallery. The star ad-
mitted them to reserved seats at the ex-
vition. There was an entire lack of
modesty displayed by the Carpenter family
and the star guests. Coming as they did
from a distance and being Wise Guys,
they deserved 10 have the best foot shown
prominently to them but no display above
the ankle was the one thing needful in
hospital sense. AS Jesus was not con-
suited about his BIRTH we charitably relieve
him from the open shop attachment.
Strange to say, the Wise Guys after
taking the trouble to follow the will O. the
wisps for the purpose of attesting the birth
of the Savior, forgot in the rubber neck
fest to make affidavit to the fact and the
historical gents only got oral statements,
that one breath passed to another breath,
the servants who hot-footed after the Star
of Bethlehem are Extraordinarily lost in
the haze of history. Lew Wallace, in ben
Hur," labels them, but / take no such lib
critics with Dame History, for the wench
might recoil and kick my reputation for
veracity. biographer without veracity
is like photographer with cross-eyed
lens-he distorts the truth by personal
veniality The true historian should
conceal himself and reveal his hero and
that is my mission, but the fond reader
must observe that fact for himself, as I
shall, under no circumstances, aid nor
abet the game. This is depression, and
l must revert to my hero, Jesus Christ. I
left him in the act of being born. The
mother and babe did well for the time.
The proud father, Mr.. Carpenter, who was a
dream parent, demurely rocked the manger
in lieu of a cradle.
The semitic word k-h-w D., means stoned,
but translated it as rocked. l learn that
Mary, The Madonna, was brought up in
monastery, and that Joseph Carpenter, had
but recently called for her and married
her, which leads me to think of a prophetic
statement in The Decameron to the effect
that even the shadow of a convent
wall it pregnant, /. e., infested with
Holy Ghosts. The Infant Savior failed to
invite the Wise Guys to join him in his
supper and as they could not eat hay like
other asses they took their departure and
the family silver as souvenirs of the occa-
sion. The Star having fulfilled its mis-
sion blew out its candle and vanished in
the darkness and left the Wise Guys to find
the back trail as best they could
1t is a fair presumption that they got
lost as history forsakes them at this psy-
moment. I shall not attempt to
out do history so I say, R. I. p. History
called the bunch into existence and she
