    BIG REWARD IS
NOT APPROVED
Fremont Bankers Think
Danger in $5,000 Dead
Bandit Offer
Fremont, Neb., _ . <UP>—Fre
mont bankers expressed disapproval
of the plan to offer $5 000 reward
lor capture of "dead" bank bandits,
suggested to stop bank looting in the
state.
Dale Millikin. of the Fremont Na
tional bank and Howard Heine, of
the Union National bank declared
themselves against the idea of giv
ing $5,000 for anyone who could
bring in the body of a bank bandit.
They pointed out that it would prob
ably lead to unnecessary shooting and
possible killing of persons without
definite knowledge that they were
guilty.
Both bankers agreed that some
change should be made to curb bank
robbers’ activities, but the only plan
they could advocate was that heavy
sentences be placed on all guilty of
bank robbery and that the prosecu
tion of suspects be rigid.
The proposal to make a reward of
$5,000 ft r all “dead’* bank bandits
was made by the Nebraska Bankers'
association and the plan will have
to receive approval of 900 banks be
fore it can go into effect. Millikin
and Heine were*of the opinion that
the plan would not be passed.

CIVIL WAR VET CAN REMEMBER
WHEN PRESIDENT TOOK ORDERS
“Field Reporter’’ Nicknamed
the “Flea’’ by Abraham
Lincoln
Chicago.—Jason H. Edgerly, 38
years old, a color sergeant in the
Civil war, remembers when he gave
orders to Abraham Lincoln—and the
president obeyed them.
Broad shouldered and carrying his
6 feet height with erectness, Edgerly,
who acted as a personal spy or “field
reporter” for Lincoln during part of |
the Civil war, lives here with his
daughter.
Lincoln, he said, nicknamed him
the “flea” because he was so adept
i at getting information the president
wanted.
He shouted orders at Lincoln dur
ing the siege of Washington by Early.
Eager to watch the prgoress of the
attack, Lincoln stood boldly on ths
fortifications, even though the enemy
had h!s range and cannon balls were
falling all around, Edgerly said.
"Get down from there, Mr. Lin
coln,” Edgerly said he told the presi
dent. “I’ll watch and bring you word
of developments.”
“Your life is as sweet to you as
mine is to me,” he quoted Lincoln
as answering.
Just then a “minute ball” hit be
tween Lincoln’s feet and Edgerly
shouted again and reached up to
help the president dowrn.
mi ngni, uuiunu oaiu, x Jl gel
down."
Edgerly said he stole the Willow
creek battle plans from under the
nose of Gen. Robert E. Lee and Lin
coln called him the "flea” from then
on.
Common Kresge.
From Time.
An owner of more than one share
of the common stock of S. S. Kresge
company last week bought an eve
ning news sheet. As he turned its
pages to the financial pages to in
vestigate the condition of nis invest
ment an Item caught his eye. This
was its headline: KRESGE CALLED
PHILANDERER. Shocked, the share
holder oegan to persue the article.
As he did so, his face darkened.
The story was one of those com
monplace scandals so often current
in this day. Told in public by law
yers for Mrs. Doris M. Kresge who
is suing her husband. Sebastian
Spering Kresge. for a divorce, it re
lated an alleged instance of miscon
duct performed in Manhattan by S.
S Kresge and one Gladys Ardelle
Fish. But the shareholder was cer
tain that the charge was untrue.
Himself morally immaculate, he had
made sure that the head of the com
pany in which he was about to invest
was ethically as well as financially
unimpeachable. He had discovered
that Mr. Kresge was well known, not
only as an able millionaire, but also
as a philanthropist, a reformer, a
church worker and a prohibitionist.
Onlv last week the shareholder had
read with satisfaction an account of
S. S. Kresge's $500,000 gift to the
Anti-Saloon league. Accordingly, he
was sure that the alleged misbe
havior, although it had remained
undented, was merely a hollow de
famation.
His face, however, did not grow
less clouded with anxiety. Was it
impossible that other Kresge share
holders. less sensible than himself,
reading such a headline, might be too
hasty to inquire as to the truth of
the charges before selling their hold
ings, and thus reducing the value of
his? Or might they, as sensible a:
himself, not realize that patrons of
Kresge's 5 and 10-cent stores, many
of them people of small tolerances
and high integrity, after hearing
such a rumor of scandal, might well
patronize some other emporium?
Might not then the shrewd share
holders sell their holdings in view ot
an inevitable decline, thus further
depreciating the value of hta own?
It was not a problem for a market
‘operator but one for a student of hu
man nature. The shareholder, one
such, turned to the financial page

From the Baltimore Sun.
Everybody is familiar with that vig
orous, determined type of person who
knows what he wants when he wants
it. He sets his eye on a desirable ob
ject and fights until it is wdthin his
grasp. He treads on toes, smashes
right and left if need be. bellows and
threatens. He can make himself un
pleasant when opposed, but so long as
others stand aside or do his bidding
he is not particularly objectionable
In fact, in the eyes of the less persis
tent he may be a source of admira
tion. He gets things done.
There is, however, another and
much more annoying type of person,
who does not know what he wants
but what he does not want. Oddly
enough, everybody feels a sense of
responsibility for such persons. The
type is as common among women as
men. They will order everything to
be brought out from the shelves and
showcases and market stalls. They
will try on a dozen hats and finger
as many gowns. They will keep the
office force sweating at doing and un
doing. With criticisms on dusting,
food and other domestic tasks they
drive a household to despair. What
the determined person accomplishes
by force the other achieves simply bv
looking unhappy. Yet when it comes
to giving definite instructions or ex
pressing their ideas they are as vague
as the seas.
Such people at least emphasize the
desire of the majority of human be
