and fine for such violators of the
law. He fixes the penitentiary sen
tence at from one to five years and
the fine at from five hundred to one

Lonu Sentence for Bank Robbers,


There have been so many bank roe'
berries in Kansas recently that a bill
permitting sentence of twenty years
in prison on bank robbers who use ex-
plosives, has been decided on by the
banking committees.
Another bill prohibits any one issu
ing check on a bank when he has nc
funds in the bank. This does not come
under the forgery law, but the prac
tice of some people issuing checks and
getting them cashed, and then when
the checks go through the banks 1t Il
found that they have no money, causes
considerable losses to banks and
their customers.
The fourth bill prohibits the max
ing OF false statements relating to de-
posits in banks in order to obtain
credit. Some men have made state
nents that they had deposits in certain
banks and obtained credit, or they have
sserted that they owned or were in
crested in certain properties and OBJ
tained credit at banks.
All of these four bills are practically
lure OF enactment The bills were In
reduced by the committees on banks

be found almost everywhere in the state
follows: Herring gull bittern, great
blue heron, green heron, coot, mud-hen
spotted sandpiper, killdeer, ruffed

NO. Even If It doeG, It will be

1t is known as the presidents hat
and has been on the move for year

across the country. Whenever it il
received at an express office fresh
tag with a suitable inscription is at
fixed and it is sent on its way. There
are SO many tags on it now that the
outline of the hat is hidden. One Of

WAS USED TO SLOT MACHINES
Distracted Woman's Remark Was Too
Much for Ticket Man at
Theater. -


The matinee performance was
about half over when a distracted
looking woman with a curly-haired
youngster of six sought out the man
in the box Office.
'TheFe arc boxes on yonr chairs
in there" she began, "and they say
drop a nickel in and get box Of
candy" tlty

'fWell,' she continued indignant

"And couldn't you get the candy ~
queried the box Office man. "Wait,
iI'll see if we can get it out"
"0h, yes," answered the woman,
81 got the candy all right, but /
couldn't get the nickel out"
And to the ticket man at least
this remark furnished a more dra-
matte moment than any in the play.
