LovELAND WRITES LETTER.
Says Lawrence Whisky Case Is
"Laughable joke

LaugnaDle JOKE
Lawrence, Kan, March 21.-The
following letter was received by Coun-
ty Attorney Amick from Doctor Love
land, pastor of the First Methodist
church of Topeka:
Il am in receipt of yours of the
18th concerning a reporters story in
city paper to the effect that I had
secured a half pint of whisky at one
OF the hotels in Lawrence
The statements in your letter are
an incident that was simply utilized as
a laughable joke on preacher
which we preachers hugely enjoy on
each other. The story, as you report
1t from the press, is so far astray that
it would be utterly useless to attempt
to base any prosecution upon it.
Again, so far as Identification of
any person is concerned, that too,
would be impossible.
II regret exceedingly this reporters
version of the matter has caused any
reflections upon the hotel or it's pro-
prietor-they seemed most excellent
people, and I am sure are in no wise
responsible for certain acts of any col
ored gentleman Whereabouts.
IT would have no hesftancy in giving
you any facts in my possession if they
were such as could stop any violation
facts.
II have long since ceased bearing
any responsibility for what reporters
do They are fine fellows as a rule,
but tits often very difficult to base
prosecutions upon their news items
Very sincerely,
FRANK L. LOVELAND.'

WHOLESALE CHECK FoRGERIEs.
Spurious Paper in Wichita Will Total
sum of $500.

Wichita, Kan. March 21.-The dis
covery was made here that no less
than thirty-one checks drawn on &C
counts of well known citizens are
forgeries of almost unbelievable skill
The sum total of the checks will run
above $4,000, with two of them drawn
for $500 and $500 on Attorney S B.
Anidon, and the law firm of Stanley,
Vermillion & Evans.
A bank clerk questioned the checks
because they came from Denver, and
he knew that none of the mem bers of
the two law firms had been in that
city recently.
When Attorney Amidon was shown
a check bearing his name he first said
it was his signature. The forger had
gone to the pains of forging the hand
writing of Colonel Amidon's stenog-
rapher.
Attorney Earle Evans, who repre-
sents the Standard Oil in Kansas, first
thought that the signature of the
check bearing his firms name was
genuine The writing of his stenog
rapher had been forged. Both checks
were made payable to 1T. Foster
Levin"
Blank checks had been stolen from
the two law offices, other law offices
and two department stores.
