Sought His Cash Reward.

"It was hot weather" said Albright

casts head and rubbed little salt on
it and put in in sack and started
for town to cash in on the reward
The state paid dead or alive in those
dear by-gone days. When he got right
near Wichita his horse went lame on
;; him and he turned it loose and started
to walk in. But by and by he caught
up with a farmer driving a load OF
hay and he climbed up on top with
the granger.
"'What you got in that there sack,
mister?' asked this inquisitive sod
mangler And the deputy. being a
little cross that morning. what with
his horse going lame and everything,
he just united the mouth of the sack
and picked the sack UP by the bot
tom and spilled that Salted head onto
the hay in front of the farmer.
"He never uttering a word the
deputy told Albright later. No. sir,
it was right queer. He never utter
ing a word. He just sort of spread
out his arms and he skinned away
! from there like right worried duck.
before he let down his legs and went
to running"
Reward Recalls Old Days.
The old days are recalled by the
recent action of the Kansas Bankers
Association in offering a reward of
$4,000 for the capture and conviction
of each individual engaged in a bank
robbery. The industry as developed
in Kansas calls for a crew of four
men. Two do the actual sticking up
of the bank officers, one acts as look
out, and the fourth is ready at the
wheel in the automobile. So that
lucky people who can drop the but
terfly net over quartet of bank rob-
bers in Kansas might conceivab1y
cash in to the extent of $4,000.
Volunteers for robber catching have
been few and sparse in the past
Every one realized that it is a civic
duty to throw a bank robber and sit
on his head if he is detected in the
pursuit of his nefarious arts, but the
trouble has been that the average
bank robber fights quite up to the
very high standards of the old James
and Younger days.
Three men robbed bank at Bailey
vile and two of them unexpectedly
ran into Kansas City policemen. The
two were shot. So were two of the
three patrolmen. A stool-pigeon tip
ped off the fact that his two partners
planned to rob a bank near Tulsa A

"One man might have escaped, but
he tried to help his desperately
wounded companion away the news
reports stated.
Many Kansas Banks Robbed.
Twenty-Five Kansas banks have
been robbed since the first of the year.
In only one case were the robbers
captured and that was when the Kan
sas City officers accidentally ran
afoul of the Baileyville group. Okla
homa banks have likewise ike tse suffered;
So have banks in all the western
states. The practice of bank robbing
with impunity-one might almost say
with immunity--has SO grown that
some action which would bring home
the predatory bacon was forced upon
the bankers. So they offered a re-
ward for ARREST and conviction.
But that does not carry any lure
with it to the wise man. Arresting a
bank robber is about as hazardous as
biting a shark on the lip, for one

jump this gap and give the desired
spark. There is an induction coil for
each cylinder That the spark may
occur at the right time there is COM
mutator, or spark timer, which serves
to send the current through the coil
at the exact moment the spark is de-
sired, the contact point in the commu
tator completing the circuit and pro
viding a path for the current
Caring for the Timer
The timer Is on the forward end of
the engine and is operated by the
cam shaft. 1t should have a few drops
of oil occasionally, an oil cup being
located conveniently for this purpose:
The body of the commutator is of
and in this are set metal contact pieces.
A roller fixed to the cam shaft re-
wolves inside the commutator and
whenever it touches one of the metal
pieces a current is sent through the
coil, giving spark in the proper cyl
inder OF course when the roller
touches the fibre between the metal
pieces no current passes and there is
no spark.
If this timer is allowed to run dry

which is distributed over the fibre,
making rather uncertain path for
the current, but sure to cause the
spark to occur at the wrong time and
the engine will fire irregularly. The
remedy is to take off the cover and
with knife or sandpaper scrape the in
side of the ring until all the metal is
removed from the fibre. Where con-
venient this may be done quicker by
putting the ring in lathe.
When the circuit is completed in the
timer and current flows through the
induction coil it operates a vibrator on
top Of the coil, under a removable
cover. The spark actually occurs in
the cylinder when the vbrs :or points
open, and this means that when the
vibrator buzzes there is a stream of
sparks occurring st the spark gap of
the plug. If cylinder should misfire,
it is easy to determine which one is
at fault, by removing the cover from
the coil box and holding down with the
fingers three Of the vibrators.
If the other one buzzes but the CYL
inder does not fire it is almost sure to
be trouble with the plug, which may
be fouled with an accumulation of car
bon, or may have q cracked porcelain,
or spark gap may be too large or too
small. Lack Of compression due to a

Thrift i'm America Urged
BY Sir Henry Thornton

Major General Sir Henry Thornton,
K. B. E., Director General of Trans
portation for Great Britain in the
military area of France, departed for
Liverpool yesterday on the Cunard
liner Mauretania after visit Of three
weeks with his mother in Newton,
Penn. Sir Henry, who became Brit
ish subject some five years ago to pre-
side over the operation of the Great
Eastern Railway, was once general
superintendent Of the Long Island
Railroad
During my short visit here I was
impressed with the great prosperity
evident throughout the United States.
Everybody, apparently, has more money
than he ever had before. I hope the
people of America will not spend their
money frivolously. Those who have
no real estate should buy their own
homes as soon as possible and those
who have surplus funds should invest
in solid securities"

large interests in Russia, sailed on the

or mining experts. He said that Boil

Man Swears
Property Left to
Him Is Withheld
Surrogate Cohalan Refuses
to Admit Will of Mrs. Ann
E. p. Allin, Offered by
Perry ]. Fuller to Probate

Surrogate Cohalan yesterday denied
motion of Perry j. Fuller to admit
to probate the will of Mrs. E. P. Allin,
who died June /, 1918. He reserved de-
cision on an application made in behalf
Of Joshua A. Dyer, for the appointment
of temporary administrator
Mr.. Dyer, who is eighty-fve years
old, was Mrs. Allin's business agant
and she left him life interest in the
residue of her estate of $150,O00. He
alleges that Mr.. Fuller and Friend l..
Tuttle, jr, whom the testatrix named
&c executors, assumed control of the
residuary estate, allowing him only SIS
week. The resiGuary estate is said
to include $4,000 in cash, jewelry and
property at 139 Manhattan Avenue.
Tuttle, who is q corporal in the 31Sth
Infantry, is patient at the Fox Hills
base hospital, Staten Island.
According to the allegations of
Mr. Dyer, Tuttle, before entering the
service, obtained possession of bank
books, six diamond rings, diamond
horseshoe pin and diamond cross and
had the aged beneficiary Of the estate
make a will in his favor This will,
Mr. Dyer continues, was destroyed, but
Fuller then had Mr. Dyer make will
naming him and Alfred NJ Hardes, an
employe in Fuller's law office, as heirs.
Hardes, Mr.. Dyer says, was man
whom | never saw and do not know"
This will also, he says, was destroyed
1t was not until ten months after
Mrs. Allin's death, it is alleged, that
the executors consented to file her will
for probate In the meantime, ac-
cording to Mr.. Dyer's affidavit, "they
took my personal property and allowed
me S5 week for my support and then
deprived me of the proper necessaries
of life"
Louis A. Cuvillier is Mr.. Dyer's
counsel
Fuller entered general denial of
the accusations and asked for a de-
lay to submit affidavits.
Mrs. Allin was the widow of DR..
Charles M. Allin. Upon the death of
Dyer the property in which she left
him life interest was to go to the
Home for Old Men and Aged Couples.
