QUINCY man IS CHARGED

ter his days work on Saturday II was
found that the lock of the locker had
been wrenched off and the checks taxi
en-.
Later in the day the checks, which
were drawn on the Superior National
bank were presented at the First Ma
tiunal for payment and cashed. The
endorsements on the checks 1t is
thought were written by some one
other than the man under suspicion,
as Guisti's name is written as Ekisto

held by the officials is that someone I'm

alleged 10 be the one who presented

Strict as to Guard Duty.

and orders regarding this are made
very plain and conspicuous in the gem
cral order. They state that no man
shall be allowed to do guard duty who
cannot repeat his general orders, sa.

CURTIS FOUND JESSE JAMES.

When Chicago Reporter He scorsd i
BEAT" and Kept His Word.
One Of the earliest scoops" Of Will
liam q. Curtis. who died recently in
Philadelphia. was that of getting an
interview with the James boys while
they were in the midst of their war
with the authorities.
While detectives were endeavorine
to locate the desperadoes Curtis. then
a reporter for a Chicago paper, went
out to Missouri, found their hiding
place and calmly announced he had
come for an interview with the bandits.
I'VE know what you're here for.
You're spy" was the reply of Jesse
James. whats more. you won't set
away from here
But the aggressive reporter was not
to have his cherished scoop thus SPOIL
ed until too old to be Of use to his M
per. He refused to be a prisoner He
talked to the James boys about his
trip out there to see them so that he
might put the truth about them be-
fore the public and finally convinced
them he was there for the purpose he
stated.
well. I'm going to give you any
thing you want, just to satisfy YOU"
Jesse James finally agreed.
And he did. He gave Curtis the
most vivid interview anybody ever
nao mad with him. Having accom-
phsned his purpose. the reporter re-
turned to the nearest telegraph station
and wired his scoop to his paper.
But he kept faith with the men who
had taken him at his word. He did
not reveal any Of the secrets OF the
rendezvous Of the desperadoes, and he
did not tell the detectives who were
searching for them the location Of
their hiding place.
