the evening Mayor Kane drove to M . j

the paper. It was a case o f forgery,!
Mr. Bernards declared, and he ex-
plained that a man answering Burke's
description had called at the farm and 1
represented himself as traveling sales I

to place his signature in a memoran-

Burke appeared at the bank In the

opened. Instead of getting the $300,
however, he faced the gun as h e 1
reached out for the gold, and was or­
dered to throw up his hands. Mean­
while the bank president had taken a
position at the entrance, and with
drawn revolver prevented Burke from
making good his escape. The sight
of the two deadly weapons had the de­
sired effect, for Burke threw up his
hands and kept them above his head
till the arrival of Marshal Cronin, and
in a few minutes Burke was safely
locked up in the bastile.
In the afternoon he was removed to
the County Jail at Hillsboro by Dep­
uty Sheriff E. B. Sappington, where
he will be given a preliminary exami­
nation.
When searched Burke had $380 in
gold, $85 in currency and a 17-Jewel
