KANSAS CORPORATIONS MUST
FILE STATEMENTS QUICK,

Topeka, May 16.-At the close OF
business last night there remained
about 125 corporations in Kansas
who we're delinquent in making their
annual reports to the secretary OF
state. Further delinQuence will
mean, when the charter board meets
on June1, that the charters will be
cancelled and that receivers will be
appointed to wind up the affairs OF
the various concerns, according to
Secretary Of State Charles Sessions.
There are a number of corPora-
lions that have ceased to exist since
last June. and no reports are en-
pected from such. When the time
comes the board will merely wipe
them out Of existence. But LITTLE
more than one corporation to each

ness. 80 far has failed to make the
necessary report. Comparatively lit

NOW SOLD IN AMERICA.
In Less Than Five Years, Partisan
Sage, the Splendid Hair Tonic,
Is Sold All Over America.

There is a reason for the phenom-
email sale of Partisan Sage in the
United States during the past three
years.
And the reason is plan to all:
Partisan Sage does just what it is
advertised to do.
Ask J. M. Gleissner & Son about
it, they will tell you that they rigid
ly guarantee it to cure dandruff,
stop falling hair or itching scalp in
two weeks or money back.
There is no reason whatever why
any man or women should fail to
take advantage of the above gem
erous offer.
But one thing that has made Par
isian Sage so famous is its peculiar
poyer to turn the harsh, unattractive
hair that many women possess into

Attorney General Files Suit Against
stewart-Peck Stand Co.
COMPANY OWES STATE $4,000
SUIT Was 20 Head OFF Sand Com.
m,nies Who Were Getting
Ready 20 Fight the Law
injunction Asked.

Topeka, May 1.-THE sand COM
panies taking sand from the rivers
will not only have to pay for the
sand they take out in the future but
for what they took out during the
past ten years, II the state OF Kan
sas wins the suit filed against them
today by Attorney General Dawson.
The suit was brought against the
S2ewart-Peck Sand Co. Of Kansas
City, and all other companies oper-
ating in Kansas. An injunction is
also asked to prevent these COM
panies from taking sand from the
streams until proper provisions can
be .made for the collection Of the
royalty.
The suit in reality was brought
to forestall any action the sand COM
panies were preparing to bring In
the federal courts to stop the en-
forcement of the state sand royalty
law enacted by the last legislature.
The sand companies have been
talking of how they would cheerfully
comply with the law and pay the
royalty. But the attorney general
received some information yesterday
that indicate the sand companies
were going into the United States
courts to obtain an Injunction
against the state.
The suit was brought to collect
a royalty on all the sand taken from
the Kaw River by the Stewart-Peck
Sand company during all the years
1t has been in existence. 1t is a Mis-
souri, corporation and since 1905
has been licensed to do business In
Kansas. 1t is asserted by the attor-
ney general that the company has
taken enough sand from the KaV
river to entitle the state to a roy
atty of more than 100000 pre-
vious to the law going into effect
and $4,000 for sand taken since
. April 80.

President Names A. 3. Jacques for
Wichita PostOffice.
SHIELDS THoMPsoN's CHOICE
0urlesOn Says Shields Was Too Old
--Thompson Will Fight the
CONFIRMATION Of Jacques
in Senate.

Washington May 17.--President
wilson's first appointment to an imA
ipOrtant federal position in Kansas
Is a turn-down for Senator William
"a. Thompson. In naming 3. s..
jacques to be postmaster at Wich-
ata the president ignored Senator
Thompson's Endorsement and accept
I'D the candidate Of Thompson's po-
aitical opponents in Kansas. III X
Unless Thompson changes his
mind he will fight the confirmation
Of jacques nomintion by the SEN
ate. He says he was deceived and
shat the nomination Of Jacques was
. piece Of political trickery.
Capt. J. H. Shields, the publisher
Of a Democratic newspaper in Wich-
Sta, was Senator Thompson's candi-
Aate for postmaster. There were
three other candidates, Jerry Fitz-
patrick. Jacques and Ray Taylor, all
Wilson supporter sin the primary
campaign last year. Until few
days ago Jacques had not been mem
9ioned in connection with the APP
pointment.
Thompson says he received the
assurance of Postmaster General
Burleson that Shields would be APP
pointed and he was amazed yester-
day afternoon when the nomination
of Jacques went to the senate. The
latter had the Endorsement of the
Democrats in the Kansas delegation
An the house, and it is understood
4hat Henderson Martin, chairman of
the Democratic state committee in
Kansas, joined in his Endorsement.
The reason given at the postoffice
department for turning down Shields
was that he was too old. He is 10
years Of age, but Senator Thomp-
uOn says he is in good health and
vigorous and that his age is a poor
excuse for the appointment Of an
other candidate.

DETECTIVE w. J. BURNS
ON ISSUING CHECKS

The william J. Burns Detective
Agency, representing the American
Bankers Association, has, at the
request Of some banks, issued the
following notice of caution on the
subject OF forged, raised" and
fraudulent checks:
Depositors are urged to exercise
unusual care at this time in filling
out and issuing checks, no matter
to whom they are issued, on account
of reports the agency is still receiv-
ing on the work of fraudulent check
operators throughout the country.
It is important to remember that
each depositor owes a duty to his
bank to protect 1t against possible
loss through error or carelessness on
his part in issuing checks. In the
event of such error, the loss natur-
ally falls upon the party whose
neglect made the loss possible.
Caution in each of the following
respects is especially to be recon-
mended:
/ CD Writing and Issuing Checks
Care should be used in writing
amounts, no matter to whom the
check is issued. Professional check
manipulators never have any trou-
BILE in securing plenty of genuine
checks signed by responsible bust
ness men which they can cash any
where. Spaces should never be left
before, after or between amounts
as this allows loopholes for additions
Ito the actual amount, Never erase
81. alter the wording Of . check once
1T is written. Better destroy every
spoiled check and write q new one
Each and every check bearing your
signature should be carefully pro-
tected by stamping just above the
signature with a reliable check pro-
tector such as generally used and
recommended by the banks.
u (2) Care of Blank Checks All
checks should be kept under locA
and key until issued. Printers
should be forbidden, to keep any
samples of your checks under any
circumstances whatever. Attention
to this one point will prevent many
of the forgery cases we are called
upon to investigate. Bear In mind
while the bank may be responsible
in certain cases for paying on a FOR
gerry, it is still up to you to prove
the forgery, and this proof nigh
be difficult II your blank checl
form is used by the forgers.
60 Checking Bank Balances
Balances should be checked careful
ly as soon as pass book is returned
by the bank with cancelled checks
This warning may seem unnecessary
to careful business men, but many
clever forgers and check raisers are
at liberty today simply because bank
depositors did not know they were
defrauded until it was too late &c
catch the criminals who secured
their money. The law in many states
debars depositors from bringing
suit against their bank in case o.
forgery, unless the forgery is dis
covered and due notice given to thu
bank within a certain time.
