HOW TO ROB A BANK.
Note of Instructions Comes Into Mr.
DOlley's Possession.

J. N. DoIley, state bank commissioner,
has a very interesting relic of a Kansas
bank robbery. 1t is the note of robber
scout sent out to make an examination of
a bank and report on the plans for rob-
bling it.
In planning a burglary, a member of
the gang known as the scout is first
sent over the territory to pick out the
most accessible bank for the purpose. He
travels throughout a section of the state,
usually cumming" his way, and finally
picks a bank in small town that looks
to him to be an easy mark. He notes
the make of the safe, where it is located,
the kind of lock on the doors and as to
what protection the bank has.
The information is turned over to the
leader of the gang, together with the
time Of the departure of freight and pas
senger trains from the town where the
bank to be attacked is located, so that the
robbery can take place IN time to make
connections with train, or so that If a
hand car or automobile is to be used, the
escape can be made at a time when trains
are not arriving.
In some instances the scout" after OBJ
tanning a desirable location, sends mes
sage to the leader of the gang with a
diagram and does not even communicate
with him to give him the information.
This, of course. is done so that com
plete alibi can be established should the
scouts connection with the robbery be
suspected. The following is typical
yegg note from the scout" to his leader:
Pick the back door, turn to your right
and there Sn6 Is. Inc l.. H. Is d ClnCIl.
She's got three doors. Use bths on the
first, 5sths on the second, and Ssths on
the third. Don't sueeze her, she
may burst. The steel is square. You
won't need number ones nor sparker.
Leave at Las back track, using N. w.
road
1--WE have tried and convicted five in
Kansas during the past month for bank
robbery and murder and have four or
five more on the way" said Mr.. Dolley.
1.-The busy season for the bank burglar
is about over as they do not work the
summer months. They spend the summer
locating banks and planning their work for
the winter. One reason that the winter
is best suited is that the people of towns
all have their windows down and sleep
soundly with the bed clothes pulled close
Nv over their heads and are not as liable
to disturb the bank robber as they are
in the summer when their windows are
all open and they are sleeping on porches.

ed From Topeka.

Tears stood in the eyes of John White
as he sat in the county attorneys Of
flee this morning and explained why he
had not paid Whitteker Brothers for d
load of fruit which he delivered. 1t was
plain, simple little story and when
White had finished representative Of
the commission firm said the man
might return to his old job. Then the
case was dismissed.
White was arrested Monday evening
on a charge of embezzlement. For
years the man has worked in Topeka.
His record showed he was faithful and
trustworthy. For months he had driven
a wagon for Whitteker Brothers. Never
once had there been an error in his
accounting. Last Saturday White de-
1ivered load of fruit. He collected the
money and started to return to the
commission house. On his way he met
his brother, who told White that his
only child had died in Leavenworth.
White was grief stricken. He tried to
telephone his employers, but failed.
Then he boarded train for Leaven-
worth. In his grief White forgot all
about the money. Not till he returned
to Topeka and was arrested by a
deputy sheriff on a charge of embezzle
ment, did it occur to the man that he
had violated the law.
ct didn't spend one cent of the money,
honest I didn't declared White, here

phone and failed. Then the train came
guess the thought of my little boy
was greater than anything else and [
thought I could wait till I returned and
give you the money then"
When White had told his story rep
resentative of the firm said the case
would be dismissed. Further than that,
White is back on his old job this after
noon.
In 1903 White lived with his little
family in North Topeka. The flood
that spring carried away about every
thing of value that the family possess
sed. But White went back to work and
tried to build another home. Two years
later his wife died Then three years
ago the little daughter died. The boy
in Leavenworth was the only child liv-
ing. White was heart broken when he
received word that the little fellow had
died. Probably the greatest surprise OF
his life was when he stepped from a
Santa Fe train and was arrested.
"It does seem that 1 have had a good
deal of hard luck" said the man, but
this is the first time that 1 was ever
tangled up with the law. 1 am going
to see that it's the last, too" con-
tinued White as he walked from the
court house to return to his old job.

IT'S FRIGHTENING UP.
Wheat Conditions Improving Accord
ing to This Report.


If F. D. Coburn, secretary OF ths
Kansas board of agriculture, had
waited a week before getting out his
crop report on Kansas wheat, published
today. he would have had a much bet
ter showing to put~out as to the condi-
ton of the wheat crop. He received
belated crop report from Logan county
today. 1t said:
.The protracted dry weather in this
section was broken yesterday afternoon
(Sunday, the 23rd) by general rain. 1
estimate about an inch of water has
fallen up to this writing (the 24th), AMI
the clouds indicate more to come"
Secretary Coburn's report issued on
the 18th was the result of a canvass of
conditions as they existed on the 21st.
and hence the situation in many por-
lions is probably materially improved,
owing to the rains of Sunday and since.
In all probability the rains of the west
ern parts of the state are moving east
ward as it is raining in Topeka this
morning. Plenty of moisture from now
on would assure Kansas big yield OF
wheat, other conditions being favorable.
In Secretary Coburn's report it was
shown that of the wheat sown last fall
$780, 900 acres were left standing, with
average condition of 1884. The acreage
harvested last year was 4,I7O,551 acres,
and the condition of the growing winter
wheat last April averaged for the state
IS. The 1910 yield was over 60 million
bushels.
The belated report from the Logan
county correspondent brought good
news, and If Secretary Coburn'S report
were based on conditions existing Fri
day. April %, instead of as found April
p, the showing would likely be consid-
erably more encouraging, especially for
the western counties where rains have
fallen since.

ed that blue paint or blue paper in

the growing of hops as a fly preven-

THE BIG WEEK.
Merchants Holiday Time Fixed for
June z, and 9.

At a meeting of the executive COM
mittee of the Jobbers and Manufac-
turerS' association held this noon at
the Commercial club it was decided to
hold the annual Merchants week"
entertainment June Z, and 9.
The program will be more elaborate
than on previous occasions, but there
will probably be no spectacular fea-
ture such as the aviation meet which
was held last year.
AS proposed a large smoker and
banquet will be held in the Auditorium
which will be more pretentious than
the event on the opening night in 1910.
A band will be engaged to play all the
day following, and the feature for that
day will be a baseball game in the
afternoon and a theater party in the
evening. Then the ''seeing Topeka
cars will be feature of the day of
merriment.
The last day of the week of festivi-
ties" will be spent by those of the
guests of the city who care to do so in
visiting the various manufacturing
plants of Topeka
The attendance last year was nearly
1,400, but then the aviation meet was
the special attraction, and it is thought
that the number accepting the hospi-
tality of the local jobbers and manu-
facturers will not exceed this figure in
June.
The committee which will investigate
the freight rates proposition and will
report before meeting of the associa-
ton is composed as follows:
George P. McEntire of the McEn-
tire Brothers Manufacturing company,
chairman; H. L. Whiting of the A. B.

Rare Musical Treat.

In the concert by the Fonzaley
String quartet April 20 at the Knights
and Ladies of Security hall. one of the
best opportunities of the season is Of
fered to the Topeka public to hear the
world famed artists.
These four artists are conceded by
critics the world over to represent the
acme of perfection in quartet playing.
The string quartet of itself. first and
second violin, viola and cello, is the
most perfect combination of instru-
ments known, for here exists that in
innate relation between individual
players which makes the music Give
in manner equally appreciable by
the unsteady learned and unlearned.
One last effort then to welcome this
wonderful quartet with a house that
will guarantee to Topeka their future
appearance as we'll as that of other
world famous artists.

Suicide.


A. P. Pelton, an inmate of the To-
peka hospital for the insane, COM
mitted suicide in a ward of the hos
pital late Tuesday evening by hanging.
He waited until the other patients in

eral days. He talked but little and
had never mentioned suicide to any of
the attendants.

Pelton had been in the Topeka asy-
lum nine years. He was brought here
from Dighton, Kan, where his wife
and several children still live.
