CHECK RAISER cAUGHT-A tele-

CHECK RAISER CAUGHI-A tele- gram was received at the office of the sheriff last night from Deputy Sheriff Nash at Ray saying that he had just taken into custody, Earl Hudson, who is wanted here for raising check given him by Mrs. J. G. Brooks for whom he had been working. The warrant for the arrest of Hudson was issued July 22 Mrs. Brooks had given Hudson a check for $7. After the word seven" in the body of the check she had left plenty of room to write the syllable teen Hudson utilized that room Also between the dollar mark and the figure "7' she had accom- modatingly left a place for another figure and Hudson inserted a T. He would probably have chosen a larger figure if he could have made it correspond to the word seventeen, but the circumstances limited his crime to $10.

What happened yesterday on
the South Side wasn't ball
game. 1t was massacre.
Bill LANCE and his cast iron de-
livery were riddled by the Wash
ington sluggers, who punctured
the scenery for Is hits, totaling
% bases.
Walter Johnson, who has been
an actor in each of four games
played here, started to pitch for
the Nationals. After giving the
Sox two hits in six innings he
mercifully quit.
In the last three innings the
Sox scored one run and whaled
five hits off Engle, a recruit.
Peters wound up the game for
Callahan.
When Nationals weren't bust

Chick Gandil oiled up his rusty

knocked a homer and triple, lat

ting the seventh. One of Ratf's

Shanks and Milan each made
successive steals of second and
third.
Chick Mattick improves when
played regularly. In addition to a
pair of solid hits he stole only
base on AinSrnith.
Ted Easterly, catcher, has been
bought from Cleveland and will
join Sox today. Easterly has also
played outfeld and is a solid
swatter. Cal may use him in out

For second time nPhilly series
the Cubs lost a great chance to
edge up on the Giants, losing
when New York did.
Ed Reulbach mystifed Quak-
ers for sevei innings, but blew far
away in the eighth.
Lobert singled, was sacifced
and scored on Cravath's Blow to
center. Luderus then poked a
homer and stuff was off.
Releasing first basemen and
then having them get revenge is
a popular pastime with the Cubs
and Sox.
Rixey, the collegian southpaw,
baffled all the Cubs but Sheckard
and Evers. Each of them bingled
twice. Tinker and Safer got the
other two hits for the Cubs.
Lobert, Paskert and Doolan
enjoyed Reulbach's shoots to the
tune of two hits apiece.

DETECTIVE PRICES STORY.

icized and condemned.
II speak in this way because Of my
recollection Of the pounding re-
ceived when investigating the robbery
Of the Kingston National bank. /
know that I did not deserve all that
I got, but great many people thought
I was not abused half enough.
II was put to work upon the case
tho day the robbery was discovered.
which was on a Monday morning. A
very singular state Of things was
found at the bank when Cashier Bell
threw open the doors Of the vaults to
begin the days business. All the
clerks were present at their desks. as
the books were kept In another safe.
which was In charge Of the head book
keeper. The cashier entered the vault
to take out some bills to put In the
drawers IN his desk. A moment later
he staggered out and fell into chair.
He was not able to speak for mo-
ment. The clerks gathered around
him, thinking he had an attack Of
heart failure, to which he was sub
ject. He announced, when he got con-
troll Of himself. that there was no
money IN the vault, but he did not say
that there had been q robbery.
Ss AFTER q short consultation, the
bank was closed for the day. and
everything was just as It had been
found when got there. I made =
careful examinat ion Of all the windows
and doors. There was no sign that
thieves had forced an entrance Tho
vault, according TO the statement o.
Cashier Bell and all the clerks, was.
locked when they reached the bank.

WAted until banking hours were over
before going to deliver them. He
found several Of the clerks busy clos
Ing up the books. and he showed that
he was genuine book agent BY
starting in to talk against time. Bill
knew what he was after, and he got II,
after waiting an hour. Bill saw that
the cashier, whose name was Bell,
locked up the vault. He used two sets
OF keys, one for the inner door to the
small safe and the other for the big
iron outside door. He put the keys
In different pockets. Bill was close
enough to the keys to remember them
II he saw them again. Bill followed
the cashier to his home, which was in
the suburbs. in neat two-story cot
tage. and the preliminary work was
over.
1T would have been easy to take the
next step. which would be to get the
keys and open the safe. That IL what
some thieves would have done, but
I had a better trick up my sleeve,
which came out Of my caution, and
would aid us In making escape easy.
It was developed in this way: The
same night Bill found out about the
keys, we made a call at Cashier Bells
house after the family had retired.
We did not care to disturb their slum-
bers, 30 we entered the house through
parlor window. Bill had located the
room in which the cashier slept, and
I went there noiselessly. Either the
cashier or his wife had beautiful
snore. and I need not have been so
careful in my operations. I found the
cashiers trousers, removed the keys
and returned to the street, where Bill
was waiting.
I'VE went to secluded spot where
1t was safe to flash a lantern. There
took q careful impression of the
vault keys and the key OF the front
door Of the bank in wax. and all the
measures necessary. then returned
to the cashiers house and replaced the
keys in his pockets just as had found
them. We closed up the house and
went home.
! Immediately went to work on the
keys. They used to say I was the best
keymaker in the world. It took me
about day to file the keys.
"The night after we had called on
Cashier Bell, Bill and I paid a visit to
the bank about two o'clock in the
morning. when we knew the police
man on the beat was taking snoo2e
in bakery.
"The keys worked like charm.
Five minutes after we entered the
bank was inside the vault packing
up the green stuff. took all the
money and such bonds as appeared to
be negotiable. worked lively. and In
twenty minutes closed the doors of the
vault and walked out with $4,000 in
my grip. We were in time to connect
with freight train. After riding
about ten miles we left tho train.

took the first train to New York"
