Clew to Stolen Money.

Leavenworth, Kan, May 27.-Gov-
eminent secret service men who have
been working on the mystery sur
rounding the finding of more than
$4,000 in $40 gold certificates on s.
Leavenworth streets during the last
month declared today it was their
belief it is the money stolen in st.
Louis since March 20, 1912.
This declaration was made upon
receipt of a letter from the Treasury
Department at Washington that sew
eral thousand dollars in $40 gold
certificates, bearing the same serial
numbers as the certificates found
here, were sent from Washington to
a st. Louis bank on that date.
All of the certificates were found
in the vicinity of the home of Mrs.
Sarah Williams. a negress. and grand

Primary Not Far Off.

August End, the date of the prf-
lary for the selection of those who
wish to be voted for in the Novem-
Der election, is now little more than
sixty days off and candidates who
have not completed their petitions
should do SO at once. The law re-
quires the filing Of these petitions six
ty days in advance of the primary.
They must contain the signatures Of
at least 3 per cent of the voters Of
the county. 1t is better to procure
the required percentage in each vot-
ing precinct, but this is not required
by the law. .u.r
Most Of the candidates have been
circulating their petitions for some
time and several have the required
number OF signatures. These will file
their petitions in short time. Sign
ers should guard against singing the
petitions of two aspirants for the
same office, as signature to a petit
ton is supposed to pledge to the can
didate the support of the signer.
Many have not read the petitions
carefully before signing them. and
have not understood this condition.
1t Is unfair to candidate to sign his
petition. leading him to expect your
support, and then vote for another
aspirant for the same office.

After.

Central City, KY, May 24.-J. w.
Hogard supposedly hailing from the
west will spend from 2 to 10 years in
a Kentucky penitentiary as the re-
suit of his hiring a horse and buggy
from a local stable and before Il
hours had elapsed had sold it to a
man in Hopkins county. Fortunately
for the local stable owners the pro-
prietor of the stable at jacksonville,
where the horse was lodged, recogniz-
ed it. and getting in communication
with the stable men here the man
who had sold the horse and buggy
was shortly under arrest, under the
name of ]. w. Wright, the name he
gave at jacksonville. Hogard or
Wright, neither OF which names Is
considered to be the correct one, was
caught at the station where he had
a ticket for Evansville and the bal
ance of the money on his person.
He did not resist arrest but went
meekly before Judge Gordon. pleaded
guilty to the offense OF horsestealing,
and was sentenced to the pen. less
than "a hours elapsing from the time
the offense was committed and the
time he was on the way to the pen
itentiary. He was a man of pleasant
mien, well dressed. SO years old. and
made a good appearance generally
1t is believed that he Is wanted for
a graver offense as he seemed anx-
ious to be sentenced and to be taken
out of the court room. After being
told by the court that he had another
day in which to make his plea. he
stated that he wanted to plead guilty
at once. Chief Langley, who made the
arrest, is making an effort to To-
cate his residence before he came
