"A Young Woman Takes u Dose OF
Poison I'm Butte.
h Butte, Mont, Oct. 14.-Bertie Tripp,
whose right name was supposed to be
Helen Forsland, a member of the Sal
walton Army, committed suicide to-.
day by taking poison. No cause for.
the act is known. The girl has had a
remarkable career. She was about
athirty-tWo years of age and the daugh-
ter Of a farmer living near Spokane.
Years ago she ran away from home
and fell in with a gambler and high
Wayman, and together they worked,
and robbed all through the States Of.
Washington, Montana, Idaho, Wyom-
ing, Utah and Colorado, the girl hav-
ing assumed male attire and passed
under the name Of Charlie Miller. At
off times she acted as bartender and
placer miner. Three years ago she
became involved in a shooting scrape
in Butte through the jealousy Of
girl who had been in love with the
supposed youth. From Butte she and
her partner went to Helena, where
they committed numerous highway
rObberies, some Of which she carried
out herself. She held up a merchant
and was finally arrested and wrote to
her partner, thus betraying him. His
arrest also followed. In resisting he
shot a policeman. In resisting he shot
a policeman. At the trial he testified
in favor Of his companion, whose sex
had been discovered, and took all the
blame on himself. He was sent up for
forty years. She then went to Port
land and joined the Salvation Army
and engaged in army work all over
the coast and Western states

Bancroft caused their anger to break
forth in fresh inyective against the
piece of clay that occupied a rough
bench in another portion of the town
There seems little doubt that the.
men who committed the crime at Sher-.
burne are strangers to this part of the
state. No one knows or processes to-
know the name of the dead murderer.
There are many conjectures as to their
identity. A stranger in the city said
that he thought he had seen the dead
man as bicycle racer last summer at
Strawberry Point, Iowa. The general
opinion here is that they we're the.
men who boarded with the farmer
near Heron Lake several days preYi-
Gus to the Sherburne affair and who
gave their names as Sair and Pratt.
The dead man is supposed to be Pratt,
answering closely his description.

BANK ROBBERY AND MURDER Al
SHERBURN, MINI.
George Thorburn, the Assistant
Cashier, and Olaf J. oestern Of
Luverne, Travelling Collector Of
the Wood Harvester Company,
Are Murdered by Two Unknown
Men, Who Secure From $1,000 to
$1,000, ana Make Their Escape ON
Bicycles

Sherburn, Mimi, Oct. yesterday
afternoon two strange men entered the
Bank Of Sherburn and without any
warning shot down in cold blood
George Thorburn, assistant cashier Of
the bank, and Olof j. Oestern of Luz
verne, Mimi, travelling collector for
the Walter A. Wood Harvester COM
pany. Mrs. George Il. Browning and
Mrs. William Masters were eye-wit- 4
nesses Of the tragedy. Mrs Browning
tells the following:
II was on the sidewalk opposite the
bank and saw two young men about
twenty-five years of age walk brislzly
across the street and enter the Bank
of Sherburn, which is on the west side
of the street. I was standing where
I could see through the front window
to the back window. I heard two
shots in quick succession, and saw the
flash of the revolvers, and saw one
man fall at the same time. The cur
tain on the bank door was suddenly
drawn down. l saw man leap
through the paying window over the
counter and in an instant saw the
back window raised and two men
jump out the back window. They
cut the screen that was on the out
side and dropped the knife used to
cut it,
Escaped on Bicycles.
Mrs. Browning at once gave the
alarm. Mrs. William Masters corrob-
crates the story. The robbers, after
securing the cash and leaving the
building, mounted bicycles and went
west, then northwest from town. O.
P. Empey and Max Jacobs were the
first to reach the bank, and found
Oestern dead. Thorburn was still
breathing but past help. Thorburn was
shot just back of the left ear the ball
just coming to the skin on the fore
head. Oestern was shot just back Of
the right eye and death was instan-
taneous. Doctors Neageli and Harm
den were summoned at once, but could
do nothing. AS soon as the alarm was
given the citizens armed themselves
and commenced the pursuit. At this
time reports have reached here that
one Of the men has been traced to near
the Iowa line, south Of Alpha, MINI.
1t cannot be ascertained how much
money the robbers secured, but it is
estimated at between ST, 900 and 1000.
Over $4,000 in gold that was in the
till was not touched, together with
some silver. The robbers dropped
$1,000 in getting out Of the window.
Louis Kohler who was loading grain
just back of the bank, saw the men
get out of the window, one with re-
volver in his hand. He shook the gun
at Kohler and told him to keep still.
He was too frightened to do anything.

One Of the Robbers and a Marshal

Are Dead.
ElmCre, Mimi, Oct II. - Sensation
follows sensation in the now famous
Sherburne double murder and bank
robbery. The cruel killing of Cashier
George B. Thorburn and Collector Olaf
j. Oesteln is avenged in part, but at
the sacrifice of the life of a, brave cit
iZen of Iowa. --
At 9:15 one Of the men supposed to
be implicated in the Sherburne affair
was surprised at the home of farm
er fourteen miles east of Gilmore. He
opened fire on the posse killing Will
lam Gallon, marshal of Bancroft. an
Iowa town twenty-three miles south of
this place. Carrying at least two bull
let's in his body, the murderer, still
trusting to his bicycle to escape, was
brought down by a bullet from q rifle
IN the hands of Deputy Sheriff E.. d.
Ward of Martin county. Wounded
unto death, but desperate to the last,
the fugitive put the muzzle of thir-
ty-eight- caliber revolver to his head
and blew out his brains. The posse
that accomplished the capture and
death of one of the robbers found in
his possession a roll of bank notes es-
tlmated to amount to about $500. It
has been placed, securely sealed, in the
private bank of G. D. Williams & Co.
of this place. The body was brought
to fillmore by the posse and an inquest
Is being conducted.
The chase ended right on the border
line between Iowa and Minnesota.
Marshal Gallon was killed in Iowa
and the robber in Minnesota. The
Abody Of Marshal Gallon was taken to

is still at large. A telephone message
was received to-day from Twin Lakes,
short distance from Albert Lea,
stating that he had been traced in
some heavy timber near Twin lakes,
and asking for assistance Posses
were sent out from Blue Earth City
and other points, but nothing has been
heard from the man-hunt Indicative
of success. In this vicinity it is be-
leYed that the robbers separated
snort distance from Sherburne and that
the remaining robber abandoned his
wheel and is now hiding along the
west branch of the Des Moines river
near Jackson. The man-hunt which
ended in the death of one Of the men,
of whose identity as one Of the Sher-
burne bank robbers there seems lit
tie doubt, was conducted by four men

who in the discharge Of his duty was
shot dead. The history of the chase is
one punctured with tireless, unremit-
ting energy and peril. All the men
named above had been on the trail Of
the dead robber since Wednesday,
when the tragedy at Sherburne was
committed. They began separately,
following direct clues, and as the scent
became warm they came together.
In Gilmore the scenes almost baff1ed

Send for Burglars,

s Minneapolis, Oct Il. - For the last
four days the Nicollet National bank
has not been able to open it's big vault
wherein are the cash assets Of the
bank, the money to carry on it's rou-
tine daily business having to come
from other sources controlled by the
institution. Locksmiths and safe-lock
experts galore have been at work on
the newfangled combinations but all
to no purpose. It is thought that one
of the automatic bars has fallen out
of place, and it may be necessary to
adopt very radical measures to gain
entrance to the vault 1t was said
this morning that the vault would
have to be cut into.
