Latest Kansas Events.
Little Crime in the State.

For more than three months Fred
w. Knapp, president of the Kansas
Association of Charities, has been
gathering statistics regarding the
causes that have placed the inmates
of the states charitable institutions
to be where they are. AS Mr.. Knapp
is secretary of the state board of
control he has been given better OPP
portunfty than is given the average
person to arrive at definite informa-
ton It was probably for that reason
that more than the usual interest was
given President Knapp's address be-
fore the association at Hutchinson
The results of the presidents investi-
cation were rather startling even to
those who had considered that they
had made some investigation along the
lines of which he spoke. He said in
part: Kansas ranks the third state in
the Union in the minimum percentage
of illiteracy, and further statistics will
prove that she stands well toward the
top in the smallness of percentage of
crime, dependency and effectiveness
: among her citizens. Out of the 105
counties in the state, there were July
1, 1909, only 81 that had no convicts
in the penitentiary. So had no prison
ers in the Industrial Reformatory and
! 50 had no prisoners serving sentence
| in their county jails. Sixteen coun-
| ties were without a prisoner under
sentence in any of these institutions.
The total population of the peniten-
tiary was S14, of the HReformatory 359
and of the county jails 44S, of whom
| 215 were merely confined awaiting
trials. There were 226 boys in the
state industrial school at Topeka and
200 girls in the girls industrial scnool
| at Beloit.

Independence reverted to the sales
day idea of 20 years ago recently, in
augurating the Gillen system, and it
proved a great success. The country
had been billed and the town was full
of people by 1920, the hour set for the
parade of livestock. A public auction
was held at which S5,571.35 worth of
livestock, implements and poultry was
sold for spot cash, and everything
offered found a buyer. No account was
taken of private sales, which were
numerous.
