Negro Secures SO From j. r. Allison
Residence, 1924 Clay.

While Mrs. J. R. Allison, 1924 Clay
street. was talking to a neighbor in
her back yard about IL o'clock this
morning, a negro entered the house,
took Sc in money and escaped. Police
were called, but by the time they ar
rived the burglar had disappeared.
When Mrs. Allison re-entered the
house after talking to her neighbor,
she noticed that the front door was
ajar. Closing it. she sat down at a
lures when she heard-a noise upstairs.
Presently the sound of someone
descending the stairs reached her ears,
she said. Frightened, she ran into the
back yard again, called a neighbor
and ran around to the front of the
house in time to see the negro leap
from the porch and run down the
street.

DR.. P. P. Womer, president of
Washburn college, will start out again
tomorrow on an automobile tour of
Northeastern Kansas in the interests
of the college endowment fund.
He does not look forward to the trip
with particular pleasure. 1t is cold
riding these days. 1t is cold sleeping
in some of the small town hotels. The
fact that Doctor Womer stands and
sleeps, well over six feet, increases the
difficulties.
IT had a very annoying experience.
recently" he said. THE bedclothes
were not long enough to go over my
toes and my shoulders at the same
time. It isn't any fun to sleep with
ones feet sticking out in the cold air.
1t isn't any fun to sleep doubled up
like a jacknife"
In addition to these personal diff
culties, Doctor Womer is meeting with
the inevita Bile discouragments caused
by low prices for farm produce and
business depression. He feels assured,
however, that the state, outside To-
peka, will eventually raise the $780,
600 allotted as its portion of the
100000 fund which the college is
seeking. On a recent three-weeks'
trip thru northwestern Kansas, he and
his assistant, Asa r. Crawford, travel
ing separately, obtained $4,000. OF
that amount, $1,000 was contributed
by citizens of Oberln.

She PLEADS UNWRTTTEN LAW
West Virginia Woman Declares Her
Victim Failed to Keep Pact.

Wheeling, W. Va Nov. 2S.-Mrs.
Louise Conkle, blonde and pretty,
went on trial for her life here today.
The unwritten law, it is intimated,
would be her defense to an indictment
accusing her of the murder of her
girlhood chum, Mrs. Pearl Williams,
in the latter's home on October 20.
The murder followed assertions by
the defendant that pact that ended a
love triangle that involved the Con-
l1les and Mrs. Williams had not been
kept by the parties involved. Mrs.
Conkle went to Mrs. Williams's home
as she was ready to leave for her work
and shot her down. The greater part
of today will be devoted to a selection
of trial jury

Crime WAVE HERE
Shawnee County Is Center for
F. Two Successive Years.
Total of 324 Prisoners Taken to
II. Kansas Penitentiary.
STATE AUDITOR MAKES REPORT
Ihirty-Six Contributed From
Here, Report States.
Thirty Per Cent Increase Shown
in Crime in State.

For two years in succession Shaw
nee county has been the center of the
crime wave in Kansas. according to
state prison reports compiled today by
n. A. Turner, state aduitor. During
the last fiscal year 324 prisoners were
taken to the state penitentiary at Ian
sing. 1t was the same number con-
Veyed for the year ending June 80,
1920. Shawnee county contributed
thirty-six prisoners during the last
year and thirty-seven the previous
year.
The fact that Shawnee county has
held the crime record for two years IS
regarded as significant. Auditor Tur-
ner. tho, does not presume to point
aut.Whether law enforcement has been
more rigid here or crime in the home
of the capital of the state has been
more rampant. Shawnee county is the
third largest county in Kansas Yet
during both years it led Wyandotte
and Sedgwick counties with their
larger populations.
Increase of 80 Per Cent.
) Returns for the first four months of
the present fiscal year show 142 pris-
state penitentiary. on this basis the
record for crime in the state will show
d big increase for the year. The rec
ord of four months is equal to COM
Tnftnent of 426 men and women 70
abe state prison for the twelve months.
That would mean an increase OF luz
Or practically 80 per cent
The crime record for the last two
years showed big increases over the
year ending June 80. 1919. During
that year, 219 prisoners were conveyed
to Lansing as against 324 during each
of the succeeding years.
While total commitments TO Ian
sing have stood at an even score TOT
two years, there has been slight in
crease in crime among men ana ma
terial decrease among women FOR
the fiscal year 1920, there were q
women sent to the penitentlary, WhlIe
last year there were but ~ women
and sos men.
ScdRyyicIz County in Second Place.
In the fiscal year of 1920 Sedgwick
county ranked second with SO COM
lnittments and Crawford county was
third with 10. Last year Wyandotte
was second with So and Sedgwick
third with 81. In 1919 Sedgw1ck LED
with 80, Reno was second with 10 and
Iabette and Wyandotte tied for third
place with IA each. In 1918 Reno
county held the record with %, which
included transfers from the reforma-
tory. Wyandotte was second with Il
and Shawnee third with 49,
