THOMPSON HAS
NUMEROUS NAMES
HARVESTED CRIPPLE AT
CITY JAIL WHO ISSUED BOGUS
CHECKS WANTED AT AlTKlN
AND WADENA FOR FALSELY
OBTAINING MONEY.

J. NJ. Thompson, the rheumatic Grip
PIE who issued the bogus checks In
this city last week for sundry amounts
ranging from $1,000 to IS, and who
gave himself up to States Attorney
Fowler to be arrested day before yes
terday, Is wanted at AItkin. MINI.
and Wadena, where is said to have
obtained money under false pretenses.
Word also came this morning
through the banking association. who
returned his checks issued here as
worthless, that Thompson is also
known in Ft. Wayne Ind, as Hunt
Camparet and has quite a record
there, though the banking authorities
knew no criminal charges ever had
been preferred against him in Ft.
Wayne.
Through City Attorney HamneI OF
Aitkin, MINI. word was received last
night at the police headquarters that
Thompson answered the description
OF a man who was there recently and
known by the name of C, w. Blake.
This was confirmed in a report from
Wadena, where he also went under
the last mentioned name.
The Fargo police department was
requested to hold Thompson here I'M
Ill Aitkln authorities could arrive In
the city and claim him. AS the mys-
terious man is serving a sentence Of
fifty days In the city Jail, he will be
here at the time Of the arrival of the
Aitkin police.
He still acts strangely, though II is
hNy rRAr 4 T.
Put on and that this insane stunt of
mis- queer remarks about his financial
affairs being Strengthened out, is
merely ruse and will be the means
or mis- cling set at large eventually.
Either the man Is very shrewd crook
or is very much unbalanced is the be-
lief entertained by the majority of
those who have seen and talked to
him.
FURTHER particulars were learned this
noon, when the word came from NJ
Wayne that his name there had bean
Camparet. Under that name last
night he telegraphed to parties in |
TT. Wayne for 800, which at 1880
CLOCK this afternoon, had not been
answered. He told the officials at the |
police department, that the money
would be Immediately forthcoming
Just as soon as he could be permitted |
to telegraph.
"A communication from Aitkin this
noon stated that the authorities there
were on their way to Fargo to claim |
MIN and take him back where he faced |
q charge Of obtaining money under
raise pretenses. Until this noon
thompson had not been appraised Of
the communication from the Attkin
so 1t is not known whether
or net he acknowledged the charge.

DESERTED AT The
DEVILS LAKE CAMP

Devils Lake, ". D., July 27.-Word
from the officers at Fort Lincoln to
the effect that Frank Kessinger of the
Fourteenth infantry had deserted the
company while in camp In Devils Lake
was received by Chief of Police
Barnes. For a time 1t was thought
that the fellow had met with foul play
as no reason was given for his deser-
tion.
Chief Of Police Barnes investigated
the matter at once and found the uni
form belonging to Kessinger in a box
car near the stock yards. The fellow
evidently changed his clothes and
skipped.
Kessfnger deserted camp on July 10.
His time would have been up July 81
when he would have had a months
pay coming.

New Apportionment Scheme to
Be Considered by Lawmak-
ers This Week.
SAMUEL RUSSELL'S PLAN
PROVIDES FOR DISTRICTS
Will Be offered to Assembly
With Suggestion That 1t Is
Fair TO All.

One of the most important matters
which will come up for consideration
early this week in tho Legislature will
be the reapportionment Of the state in
TO legislative districts and the assign
ment Of the number Of senators and
representatives to the different districts,
based upon the population ascertalned
by the federal census Of 1910.
The senate committee on apportion-
ment, OF which Senator Charles e
Marks Of Salt Lake is the chairman,
has the reapportionment under consld-
GRAFTON and several meetings Will be
held this week on the subject:
Senator Stookey has a bill for the
reapportionment now before this COM
mittee. The bill leaves the boundaries
of the districts as they are fixed by
the constitution. 1t provides for a SEN
ate of twenty two members and house
of ffty-flve members. Salt Lakes rep
resentation in the house is increased
from ten to seventeen members and in
the senate from five to eight members.
Weber, Utah and Box Elder counties
are each given another representative
and the Twelfth senatorial district is
given another senator. To this bill some
opposition has arisen because of the
large UuHlDeG OF representatives. III pnc
legislature given to Salt Lake.
Russell's Apportionment Plan.
Samuel Russell has prepared an ap'
portionment bill which viii likely be
introduced in the legislature this week,
1t is a comprehensive measure which re.
districts the entire state. Each ward
in Salt Lake City is made representa-
tive district. from which two members
OF the house are to be chosen. From
the city at large five senators are to
he chosen. In the county there are four
representative districts. each entitled to
one representative. while from the en-
tire territory outside Of Salt Lake City
in the county two senators are to be
named.
This plan provides for n house OF rep
reseniatlves OF fifty members and SEN
ate OF twenty members. The con3titu-
ton requires that the membership OF
the house of representatives shall not be
less than two or more than three times
the membership of the senate, The ratio
In this plan IS two and a half TO one, the
mean ratio between three to one and
two 10 one.
House of Representatives.
The constitution requires that each
county be given at least one representa-
tive in the legislature. The general ratio
for counties having more than one rep
rescntaliYe Is one representative for
5000 iuha bitantS.

provision Of the bill was unanimously
agreed to by the committee at its meet

Gardner liquor bill Of two years ago.
At Saturdays meeting Senator Ben
ner K. Smith, chairman Of the commit
tee, was absent, and in his absence it
was decided that no definite action with
reference to a decision on any proposed
sections should be taken. However, the
committee went thoroughly into a great
many regulation features of the pro-
posed bill and tentatively agreed to
several Of them.
Brewery Owned Saloons.
In the absence of Senator Smith, Rep.
resentative Rock NJ. Pope acted as
chairman of the committee. The Penn
sylvanla regulation law was read and
discussed at considerable length.
Among the features of the proposed
regulations taken up were the elimina
tion Of brewery owned saloons, the own
ership by manufacturers and wholesal-
ers Of buildings occupied by saloons, the
use of attractive signs by saloons, the
employment CT persons under 81 years
OF age in saloons OF breweries, the ques-
tlon Of the sale Of liquor to Indians
and other wards Of the government, the
notify a saloonbeeper not to sell to a
certain individual, the removal of
chairs, tables, music and gambling par
aphernalia from saloons, the anti-treat
ing clause, the liability of a saloon
keeper for acts of his employees. the
labelling oe intoxicating liquor shipped
between points within the state, the
consigning Of liquor to fictitious per
sons.
Agrees on Most Of Features.
The committee has practically agreed
upon most of the regulation features
desired for the bill and these will be
drafted and presented to the commit
tee IN tho form Of sections Of the bill
Monday forenoon when the committee
will again meet at 10 clock.
From the present progress it is prob
able that the committee will be consid-
erlng a completed bill by Wednesday,
and after the final amendments are
made will be in position to submit the
measure to both houses Of the lepisla- |
ture by next Thursday,
