THE SENTINEL, CHENEY, KANSAS TAKE BAHDITS AFTER BATTLE MEWS ITEMS FROM ALL OVER KANSAS D0TS3LDASIIES WIRE NEWS OF THE WEEK PAINS EARLY DOUBLED ME UP NotKmg Helped Me Until I Took Ly dia Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. lADCNROUIC BRONCHITIS FOR TWENTY-SIX YEARS IIOW WELL AUD HAPPY TH13 IS WORTH READING The experience of Mr. E. J. Tou palik, 1438 Hose street, LaCrosse, Wisconsin, is chiefly remarkable on account of the length of timo he was afflicted.

He writes: "I nave been suffering with chronic bronchitis for twenty-six years and every winter I would catch cold and become hoarse I could not speak for six or. eight weeks. I could get only temporary relief. "This winter I was taken witK Grip and was in awful A. fellow workman advised me to take-PE-HU-NA.

By the time I had used three-fourths of a bottle, the hoarseness was gone, also that tired feeling. I am on my second bottle Hereafter PE-RU-NA will be constantly in zny house. It is the best medicine ever put up for the purpose." For any disease due to catarrh or catarrhal conditions, PE-RU-NA is equally dependable. Coughs, colds, catarrh of the head, stomach trouble, constipation, rheumatism, pains in the back, side and loins, bloating, belching gas, indigestion, catarrh of the large and small intestines, are some of the troubles for which PE-RU-NA is especially recommended.

There were veterans on the pension rolls on May 30, 1919. The deaths reported since are 27,856. 4 HI ir F. Parker, president of the "Fidelity Picture Plays Syndicate," and Miss Harriet E. Mills, secretary, were held to the federal grand jury at Cleveland, on charges of using the mails to defraud.

It is alleged that they defrauded ministers and religious organizations out of $60,000 by selling worthless stocks through the mails. 4 4 4 Chicago detectives are seeking to unravel the mystery, surrounding two attempts recently on the life of Mac-lay Hoyne, state's attorney. From a post in a vacajL house across the street from the Hoyne residence, two rifle shots were fired at Francis J. Hoyne, 15-year-old youth, who strikingly resembles his father. 4 4 4 Announcement was made at Cincinnati that great quantities of New Zealand meat is being brought into the central states' markets to knock out profiteering in meat, as the new meat is free from duty, it is claimed, and of far superior quality to that sold generally in the United States outside of first class hotels and dining cars.

4- 4- President Wilson has signed the civil service retirement bill providing for retirement and pensioning of government employees. 4 4r 4 Bolshevist forces captured the entire White sea fleet, consisting of six cruisers and seven transports, following their occupation of Enzeli, according to a Bolshevist communication from Moscow. 4 4 4 Southwest All of the banks in the border towns of Eagle Pass, Laredo, Brownsville and El Paso are overflowing with money brought out of Mexico by former officials of the Carranza government and other refugees from that country. 4 4 4 The world's record for an airplane flight with three passengers was brok Sheriffs Force Wounds Two Kansas City Bank Robbers After a Chase Through Atchison. Walter Ingram, alias Walter Bradford, and Harry Kelly, pursued as the robbers of the state bank of Howe, probably were fatally wounded in a revolver battle with a sheriff's force near Bean Lake, late, the other afternoon.

Both are believed to be from Kansas City, as well as a third, Roy Edwards, who escaped. The bandits passed through Atchison about 6 o'clock and the sheriff, with four deputies, took up the chase. About a mile south of Bean Lake the motor car of the fugitives became stranded by a flat tire and the robbers turned to fight. Bradford received a shot through the abdomen, Kelly fell wounded and Edward McCuilough, a deputy, received a slight wound in a leg. A search was made for Edwards who, also, was wounded, the police believe, but without result.

The wounded men were brought to an Atchison hospital where it ii said Bradford can live but a few hours and there is little hope for Kelly. Several thousand dollars in currency, gold, silver and Liberty Bonds were recovered from the men afi-? the fight. The loot has not been counted, but early estimates place th9 sum between $20,000 and $30,000 despite the report from Howe that ap-protfimately $8,500 was stolen. The town of Lawrence is so chagrined over the report of the census bureau of an increase in population of only 82 or .07 per cent in the last ten years, that a second census enumeration was announced by Mayor George Kreeck. Mayor Kreeck said that he had been in communication with the census bureau ever since the federal enumeration in Lawrence had shown many failures by canvassers to list residents of the town.

Because TOf laxity in conducting the enumera tions the census bureau has granted the right of a recount, Mayor Kreeck said. The count will be conducted by the city and any increase will be added to the federal report. The federal census figure of 12,456 announced recently as the population of Lawrence is 1,018 less than the population report compiled by the county enumerators. The county enumeration showed a population of 13,474. Kansas railroads are going to get nearly seven thousand box cars next month.

In exchange for these the roads must give up eleven thousand coal cars to Eastern lines. The industrial court received a telegram the other day that the interstate commerce commission had directed the Eastern railroads to deliver to the Burlington, Union Pacific and Rock Island seventy-five empty cars each day for thirty days, beginning May 25. The Santa Fe will not. receive any of these cars, as it now has a large number of cars on its line. The same is true of the Missouri Pacific.

This order will bring a large number of cars into the Kansas wheat district to take up the remaining loads of 1919 wheat. The Santa will deliver four thousand, the Rock Island three thousand and other roads four thousand coal cars to Eastern lines within the next twenty days. The trial of Rufe King, alleged triple murderer of Maple Hill, was continued in the district court at Lyndon by Judge Heizer until the June term on strength of representation made by the defense that Mrs. Lo-retta Fowler, now an inmate of the state hospital for the insane at Topeka, should be a material witness in the case. Mrs.

Fowler cannot become a witness until she is pronounced as cured at the state hospital. Walter Wilson, state bank commissioner, has appealed to Fred M. Tate, head of the federal secret service for this district, to aid in the search for August Jaedicke, missing president of the Hanover State Bank, according to well informed sources. Wilson is said to have called in the secret service because the state authorities have been unable so far to trace Jaedicke's moves beyond the small" town in Nebraska where he left his motor car. Twelve thousand cars will be needed to move the 1920 wheat crop along the Central Branch, Missouri Pacific officials said.

They estimate that cars will be necessary to move the remainder of last year's wheat crop now stored in mills and elevators. Fosr places of business in Lebo were robbed the other night. The robber left town on the early morning' train and was traced to Ottawa, where he evaded the officers. A part of the loot consisted of all the morphine and cocaine tablets in a drug store. The Belleville Telescope has moved Its printing establishment into its new modern home, and with additional equipment now, has one of the most modern newspaper plants in Northern Kansas.

Six county papers are published from the plant Chancellor Frank Strong made his farewell address recently to students of the University of Kansas as head of that institution. Doctor Strong's resignation, tendered last summer, becomes effective at the end of the pres-, ent school year Peace Notes Feeling is growing in Tiflis that the Russian Bolsheviki are directing their armies toward Persia, as they have concentrated about sixty thousand troops in the vicinity of Baku. The capture of Enzeli, the' chief Persian port May 18, by the Bolsheviki is regarded there as the initial step of a large movement against Persia. Far reaching possibilities hinge upon the success or failure of conferences about to take place between members of the British government and representatives of soviet Russia, some of whom already are in London. 4 "4 The senate has adopted a resolution by Senator King of Utah, extending the senate's congratulations to Italy on the fifth anniversary of that country's entrance into the world war.fc "Ic 4 The German government has noti fied the British charge at Berlin of its acceptance of the entente's invitation to participate at the conference at Spa.

Authority to accept for the United States a mandatory over Armenia has been asked of congress by President Wilson. The executive said he was conscious that he was "urging a very critical choice" but did so in the earnest belief that it will be the wish of the people of the United States that this should be done." 4 4 The situation in the far East is still too unsettled to permit the withdrawal of Japanese forces from Siberia, said the imperial address read by the i empress at the annual meeting of the Japanese Red Cross the other day. 4 France is to receive 55 per cent of Germany's indemnity, Great Britain 25 per cent and the remainder is to be divided between Belgium, Italy and Serbia, Premier Millerand has told the finance and foreign affairs committee of the chamber of deputies. ir 4 The reparations commission of the allied nations has elected Louis Dubois president of that body on the proposal of Sir John Bradbur3 principal British representative on the commission. Washington Investigation has been ordered by the state department of circumstances attending the kidnapping of two Americans in Mexico.

The American consul at Chihuahua City was instructed to conduct the inquiry and there were indications that no representations would be made to the new Mexican government. 4 i Work is underway for the establishment of a system under which 425,000 government employees may look forward to old age pensions, under terms of the newly enacted federal retirement bill. 4 4 4 Reports to the interstate commerce commission from its agents throughout the country show a continued, but slow, improvement in the railway freight congestion situation. Members of the commission expressed belief that the peak of the congestion had passed. 4 4r 4 An analysis of alleged profiteering in flour, filed with the United States railroad labor board by W.

Jett Lauck, consulting economist of the railroad brotherhoods, states that wartime profits absorbed one-third of the price paid by the consumer for a barrel of flour, and that 60 per cent of that huge margin was chargeable to profiteering. 4 4 4 Advices from Mexico indicate the revolutionists have much to do before a stable government can be establish- ed. Military leaders are reported at various points with small armed forces either still loyal to the Car-ranza regime or for other rearons hostile to the de facto government. 4 4 4 Establishment In the United States of a British-built air service, controlled by Great Britain in the same way that the merchant marine was dominated prior to the war with Germany, is foreseen by military and commercial air men in this country as a result of the extended visit here of HandleyPage, the famous English airplane builder. 4 4 4 Domestic Federal Judge A.

B. Anderson of Indianapolis has held the Le. ver law to be unconstitutional. Judge Anderson's decisions was in ruling on the motion to quash indictments against 125 bituminous coal miners and operators charged with violating the Lever act That the honor system is a failure and cannot be carried out effectively was the statement recently of Everett J. Murphy, warden of the Joliet penitentiary.

Warden Murphy announced that men sent to the state farm are there, not as honor convicts, but as merit men. nrr. The government's gross loss in operation of the railroads during federal control was $900,470,000, according to the final report of Swager Sherley, railroad administration director of Happenings of More or Less interest Gathered From Many Sources. BIG YEAR 111 BANK FAILURES Salina and Hanover Crashes Were the Largest in the History of the State. WTiile there has been a considerable number of bank failures in Kansas, none has reached the proportions of the Hanover State Bank and the Kansas State Bank at Salina.

The Hanover bank failed just recently. The Kansas State Bank failed a year ago. Within this year there have been four bank failures due to the looting of bank officials and there also is recorded the looting of a building and loan association at Emporia. None of those implicated in the wrecking of the banks ever has been punished. The losses in the bank wrecks exceed a million dollars.

The Kansas State Bank loss will exceed $300,000. The Hanover State Bank will lose directly $138,000 and the customers will lose approximately y2 million dollars. The Aulne State Bank loss is 36,690 and the LaCygne bank loss was The Emporia Building Association loss has not been determined definitely, but was reported to be as high as $90,000. The relatives of Fred Pohlman of the LaCygne bank put up all the money needed to make good that loss. The relatives of V.

O. Johnson are expected to make good the loss in the Aulne bank. A. J. Conklin, who wrecked the Emporia building institution, has disappeared, as have H.

J. Leffer-dink, cashier of the Salina bank, and August Jaedicke, president of the Hanover bank. The worst failure of a state bank in recent years in Kansas was that at Ellinwood, where Edward Bochemohle absconded, then committed suicide. That bank paid less than half the amounts due depositors and the failure was one of the causes for the enactment of the bank deposit guaranty law to protect the innocent depositors. Shortly after the enactment of the bank guaranty law caine the failure of the Abilene State Bank, wrecked by John A.

Flack. The final losses in that bank amounted to only $30,000, due to some fortunate increases in the values of the assets. There have been few national bank failures in Kansas in recent years. There were four failures of national banks which caused sensations. One was the wrecking of the Atchison National.

Another was the closing of the Cross Martindale bank at Emporia. Then came the failure of the Devlin bank in Topeka, and a few years later the failure of the Grant Hornaday bank at Fort Scott. New York estates are paying two-thirds of the inheritance tax receipts of the Kansas treasury this year, while Kansas estates are paying in only about one-fifth of the total taxes paid, according to a statement by Fred W.
