Lawrence. Kan. June 2---There's a
lot OF such knockers and sore heads
running loose as Del Travis. but at the
present time he is the head Of the lot
that is rapping me and my work" said
Professor L L Dyche TO a reporter
this morning. It's no easy matter TO
be the game warden in Kansas in the
present lack OF funds to carry on the
work. let alone having to stand up
Under the fire Of personal abuse that
has been coming my way ever since
1 took the place
How about Del Travis2 Oh. he's
quiet now considering his nature He
has never made any reply to my letter
ago AMI which called his bluff
I saw Travis the day my letter came
cut in the papers He was with Wag-
staff and that crowd at a hotel III Wich-
tia happened to go in the lobby
JUS as he was reading the letter. and
you can bet that we had il out then
and there. He did not seem to be in
Cltned TO do anything, though, and
would not even settle the row when
some OF his friends offered to GO in half
on renting a hall I offered TO pay the
other half. but Travis backed out Since
then, ne hasr' had much TO say ex-
cept to knock at my back
The whole thing looks as II he were
sore because he lost his hold on the
Eatcher1es for his personal gain He
says mat m IN II IOr all can GET
but I'll tell you right here that the only
personal interest 1 have in the hatch
cries and wardenship is a personal de-
sire TO see Kansas get all it can out
OF the hatcher1es and make the money
so as far as possible"
Del Travis attack on Prof. Dyche's
administration was made at q meeting
of the Sportsmen's club held at
Hutchinson a few weeks ago Dyche
replied in a long statement. answer
ing satisfactorily all of the charges
Prof. Dyche has been in Lawrence
on 4 two days stay TO tend to some
of his duties as professor at the uni
versity. He Will leave for Pratt to-
day TO plunge again into his many
duties as state game warden
Our correspondence down there
is something awful and We can't pos
sibly keep up with It with the same
force in the office. The job down
there takes every minute of my time
I'm tied up on account of having little
or no money to run the business with
I expect TO get the fifty thousand tied
up in the state treasury by the next
meeting OF the legislature not to
count the hunting licenses for this
year I have $4,000 already spent
in improvements The only thing I
lack IS the money and will get rid
OF that as soon as I can get IT."
