N|MMEL MYSTERY
STILL UNSOLVED
Man Refuses Arkansas City Offer to
be Identified.
BRAND NEW THEORY is SPRUNG
Idea That Man at Niles, MIeh' 10
Neither kImmel Nor white,
Causes Excitement In
Kansas Town.

Arkansas City, Kan. Sept. 2S.-The
man claiming to be George Kimmei,
now in Niles, Mich. has lost several
adherents here by refusing to visit
this city. Business men offered to pay
his expenses, but the offer was prompt
" declined with the statement that
Kimmel refused to be made q show
Of"
There are number Of Arkansas
City men who are positive they could
solve the riddle II the man would let
them see him. 1t isn't improbable
that he will see delegation from
Arkansas City soon, II conflicting argu'
ments, theories and evidence grows
warmer. ,..
HE isn't Kimmel. He is Andrew
]. White. II he isn't White where 10
White?" was one Sumner" promul'
gated by a participant. The answer
was:
HE 10 White. II he were Kimmel he
would want to be identified here
especially when the business men
offer to pay his expenses"
However, several citizens declare
that Andrew Hunt, the miller who
questioned the man in Niles was mis-
taken when he said railroad men
never rented the third floor Of the
Security state bank building, then the
Farmers State bank The man said
something which most Arkansas City
people had forgotten about. Some now
remember that the statement was
correct. This is used in the argument
that White could have learned OF this
when be worked here as a piano sales
man.
A new theory just came to light here
and caused a bit Of excitement. 1t is
that the ex-convict is neither Kimmel
Nor White, but James Whosemer. II
was under this name that he was first
committed to prison. He gave his
occupation as q conductor and bill
clerk. 1t is suggested he may have
been one of the members of the rail
road lodge that rented the room here
and possibly he helped institute thai
order, as there once was a man By
that name here.

ANOTHER TRAGEDY OF 1HE AIR


Dayton, o., Sept, 2S.-Forced into
the air by the jeers Of thousands who
called him a coward, Frank H. Miller,
20 years old, Toledo, o., aviator,
shot into the sky at twilight and when
200 feet up was burned to death while
the spectators on the Miami county
fair grounds at Troy looked on.
He could be seen making a frantic
attempt to get his machine under con-
troll, when suddenly flame was seen
coming from the engine, and the gaso.
line tank exploded, and the machine
was wrecked. What remained Of the
aeroplane and its driver was burned
as it dropped rapidly to earth. In q
short flight his machine acted un-
steadily and he did not care to 60 up,
