SHE ASKS $4,000.
Mrs. Burles Says Hotel Clerk
Mistreated Her.
She Refused to Admit Him to
Her Room.
CAUSED HER ARREST.
Later She Was Released and He
Was Fined.
Travelled Under Assumed Name
to Avoid Husband.
CAUSED HER ARREST.

Independence, Kan, April 15.-Al-
leging that she was expelled from the
Mecca hotel in Coffeyville in her night
clothes, because she refused to allow
a drunken hotel clerk to come into
her room at three o'clock in the
morning, Mrs. Alice Burles, alias Leh-
men, has begun suit for $4,000 against
the Hines Hotel Co., in the district
court here.
Mrs. Burles was the first witness in
her behalf. She said her name at
present is Lehnen and not Burles, al
though this is the name under which
she registered at the Mecca hotel, in
August, 1910, which was the time she
was expelled from the hotel. Accord
ing to her story she is 30 years ola
and has been married twice, and is not
divorced from her last husband. IL
was to keep him from getting track
of her that she Travelled under false
name.
On the night she stopped at the
Mecca she was in company with a
young lady named Minnie Smith. They
took a room and about IL o'clock they
called for a lunch. The clerk answer
err them over the telephone saying
he would bring it up right away. He
was told to bring a pitcher of water.
Mrs. Burles says he began to banter
them over the phone, asking them If
water was not too weak to be a sat
isfactOry beverage.
Yes, it is, but in Kansas l did not
know We could get anything better,
she told him.
Il think l could get you some beer, "
he suggested, and she told him to
bring it.
Presently the clerk appeared at the
door of their room with the lunch. He
left it mad went away, presently re-
turning with two bottles of beer. They
paid him fifty cents for the beer and
he left. The women drank the beer
and went to bed.
About 8 o'clock the witness said
the clerk returned. He knocked at
the door and was asked what he
wanted.
81 want to come in and jolly you
girls" was the reply. She told him
he could not come in. Finally she told
him, just to brighten him that If he
came in her husband would attend to
him.
Witness said she ran to the tele-
phone and called for help. The porter
answered and told her that the clerk.
Charles Atwood was upstairs. This is
the man who was at the door and
another man was with him. When
he saw she was in earnest he ran
down stairs and answered her at the
phone, asking her what was the mat
ter
She told him she was going to re-
port his conduct to Manager Sinclair.
The clerk was frightened and to save
himself she says he went and got
three policemen and told them she
and her companion were drunk and
were raising a disturbance and he
wanted them expelled from the hotel.
They were expelled and taken to
the city Jail At the trial they were
released and the clerk paid a fine for
his misconduct.

the Hutchinson News and for the past
nine months editor and part owner of
the Lyons Daily News, has sold his
interest in that paper to his partner,
J. w. A. Cooke, who has already taken
full charge.
Mr.. johnson has not yet announced
what business he would engage in for
the future, but it is almost certain that
he will remain in the newspaper field.
1t is known that he is considering

For the present, Mr.. johnson will

TURK ADMITS CHARGES.

Kan, to DeS Moines.

Des Moines, Ia, April 15.-Uncle
Sam and the Kansas state authorities
nearly clashed in Des Moines over the
possession of Peter George, the al
arrested here Sunday. George is want
ed by the government for traf1cking
in white slaves, while the authorities
of Kansas City, Kan, wanted him for
larceny. Deputy United States Mar
shall BidweI yesterday received a COM
munication from the immigration Off
ciaI at ST. Louis, asking him to take
George in custody. That there is truth
to the white slave charges was shown
by the Willingness of George to return

cial and Chief of Detectives Johnston
turned the prisoner over to the Kan

lose the alleged white SLAYER. Deputy
United States Marshal Bidwel re-
ceived assurances from the Kansas
City officer that he could have the
prisoner as soon as Kansas City is
through with him.

KILL MORNING GLoRIEs.
This "FIOwer'' as Pestiferous as Ca
madam Thistle.

Manhattan, Kan, April 15.-Morn-
ing glories may have their artistic
side, but every farmer who has fields
infested with them, knows them to
be his bitter enemies.
w. NJ. Jardine, professor Of agron-
omy at the Kansas State Agricultural
college says that the fallow method
is the best way to eliminate the morn
ing glory, and that this system should
be used until June l. After that time
cane, which can be pastured later, or
cut for feed which is best. This
should be followed by a crop rotation
and the pest will disappear.
The wild morning glory is weed
that is almost as big a pest as the
horse nettle. 1t spreads by under
ground rootstocks and fine seeds.
Here are the methods for fighting
it. By the fallow system the use of
the grounds is lost for one vera. Plow
it deeply in the spring and follow
throughout the season by frequent
diScings and harrowings. This method
never fails.
The smother crop is also effective
and is preferred by some persons be-
cause it furnishes green feed. After
the ground is in shape, seed to buck
wheat, millet, sorghum or cowpeaS.
Any of these should be planted after
the ground has been warmed well.
Prepare a good seed bed and sow
broadcast "a bushel and a half, or
drill a bushel to the acre.
When the morning glory begins to
vine start the mower and continue
to cut frequently because this will tend
to smother the vines. On farms,
where clean cultivation is the rule,
the morning glory is unknown. In
fields that are infested already this
method takes more times than many
farmers can afford to give it. Pas
turing infected fields with hogs is a
good method for the animals are fond
of the juicy roots and will root for
them. The land can be plowed in the
fall after which the hogs should be
turned in and allowed to run in the
field during the winter.

WHO STOLE THE LOCK?
Only Prisoner in WestmOreIand Jail
Makes His Escape.

Manhattan. April 15.-The only
prisoner in the county jail at West
moreland has escaped. 1t was found
the paddock on the front door of the
jail had been hacked off, the door was
open and the solitary prisoner was
gone.
The prisoner was one of the two
captured at the Amiss home near st.
George several weeks ago by George
Moreland. One of the pair pleaded
guilty and a short time ago was SEN
fenced to the reformatory at Hutchin-
son.
When the Jail delivery was discov-
cred Sheriff Huey was at Topeka. But
on his return he got word of the de-
livery at Wamego and wire at once
to the officers here to keep a look
out for the man. Then he wired for
some bloodhounds at Topeka and they

Forgiven.
Kansas City, Mo-, April 15.-From
a little town in western Kansas
farmer came to Kansas City few
days ago. Upon his arrival here he
went to the Leeds Farm-the city's
cure for criminality. His son was
there on a charge of wife deserton
and beine here in company with an
1S-year-old girl from his home town.
The father brought with him big
bag of apples and word from the boy
mother-that was the hardest and set
speII'' the boy whispered that there
was a chance for his father to get him
out. 1t was the parole system and
father set out to learn about it.
When the parole committee met at
the city workhouse he handed a
bundle of letters to L. A. Halbert, sec
rotary. with the words that they were
his recommendations. The man was
old His hands were gnarled and his
clothes showed the mark of farm
work
Fined 500, February 81. Wife de-
sertion and being in company with
another woman" Mr.. Halbert read the
boys crime. He had come to Kansas
City with the other woman while his
wife was away from home. In police
court he said he was going to get
divorce from her.
Hes only 23 years DID, the old
man said, his lip trembling. '.Virgie,
that's his wife. had just Joined the
church before he left. That's what
makes it so hard. But his mother was
hurt the most-she cries and cries all
the time. Virgie said she would keep
on loving him if the other girl hadn't
already won him. I guess he's just
about ready to go home. I'll take him
back with me and he'll live with her
all right. Mother and sister wanted to
come along but 1 wouldn't let them"
He sank back into the chair again.
There was a brief consultation be-
tween the members of the committee,
and then:
We'll recommend his parole to the
board" The old man tried to muir

farmer in the neighborhood of Melrose
who is not bruised and cut by the ter

Tales of freaks played by the wind and
stories of hair breadth escapes from

every street corner and are as common
as crop yarns in August.
