ROBBED IN DAYLIGHT.
Burglars Crack Safe at Marsha1ltow
and Secure Large Sum.

Burglars Crack n Safe at Marsha1ltown
and Secure Large Sum.
MARsHALLTowN, Ia, Nov. 21.-At
the noon hour yesterday the Office Of
the Southwestern Mutual Life associa-
ton was entered, the safe blown open
and cash, drafts and certificates of de-
posits to the amount of about $500
distracted therefrom.
The robbery was the boldest in the
history Of the city. The Office of the
association is situated in the basement
of the court house, one floor below the
sheriff. Office and but short distance
removed from the court chamber in
which the session of the district court
was being held at the time It is sur
rounded by offices which were more or
less occupied by employees at the time
and the corridors Of the court house
were thronged with residents of the city
and county, called there by the court.
And yet no one has yet been found who
heard the explosion or saw the depart
ure of the robbers.
1t took something less than Is min
utes for the robber to open the office
door by meals Of pair of nippers, blow
open the safe with giant powder, tear
the money box from its place, wrap it
iii a woman S macintosh hanging near
and make his escape.
President H. S. Halbert of the asso-
citation was in the Office until 1890,
when he went to dinner, and at pre-
cisely 1915 F. B. Cooper, another official,
entered the office. During the interval
the robbery was committed.
The county treasurer's office is i'm
mediately above the Office which was
robbed. Shortly before the robbery an
attempt was made to unlock the door of
the auditors offic., but the man was
frightened away by Auditor Hargreave,
who CHANGED to be in the Office at the
time From this it is believed the rob-
Der had designs upon the county treas.
ury.

Question of a North Road.

The question of getting good roads i'm
and out OF jamestown is 81 important
one 1t the merchants want to hold and
increase the farmers trade. TIE road
leading north along the j. &N. track
to the Foster county line, has been
travelled for some 90 years. It is short
road to the towns north OF the city. but
needs permanent location and improving
and permanent entrance to the city.
From time to time the commissioners
have been asked to get the right of way
for this road and 10 years ago or 30 such
could probably lave been done, with lit
tie or no cost. As the price of land ad-
vances the cost of right of way may be
greater and whatever is done about the
matter may be Of advantage to be done
soon, both to CITY and county. The,
matter has again been brought before
the board and the council for action.
There are two north roads vest OF the
Jim, and east Of the Pipe stem rivers,
which it ls proposed to improve, to pro-
vide easy access to jamestown for the
heavy traffic to and from the Northern
part OF the country.
One is to continue and make permR-
nent the present road over Capital Hill
and greatly improve it. At present the,
city has no regularly laid out road from
the CITY limits going north to meet the
county road that follows the section line
running east OF Highland Home ceme-
terry. The county already has a road
laid out to tho south. east corner of the
cemetery, and it is proposed that the
same be continued to the city limits and
join the road which should be made by
the city. 1t is said the city could get in
3 or 4 acres at $40 per acre. sufficient.
right of way to JOIN this regular county
line. Little grading would be needed
besides the already necessary improve
ment OF Capital Hill
Such road gives two entrances into
the city, one over the railroad crossing
at the round house, and one over the
bridge as at present. In driving stock
from the north the stock yards are more
easily reached by this than any other
north road. 1t is question also,
whether the county has not already sc-
qulred title to this road by long use.
The other proposed road 10 over the
eth avenue bridge and north to the
Nichols farm, thence west to Join the
present county road near the cemetery
To make thls permanent road, deep
ravlne will have to be filed and q large
amount of grading done, on tho bluf
where the road now rune. Eventually al
so it is said the city will need new
bridge over the Jim at 9Th avenue.
Both Of these north roads are practi-
cable, and one ls needed ss permanent
easy road. The comparative expense
has not been figured. The distance Is
said to be about :he came. The ad-
vantages and disadvantages OF each can
be judged by the public and the city
anu county have the matter to consider
and act upon.

OF the injured We're mingled with the
cries the living as they found their
dead. The seriously injured received
the first attention ct the four doctors OF
the town.. The doctors instruments
and medicines hal been lost in the
storm. The rudest bandages were used.
The doctors were overwhelmed by the
more than $50 injured who were discov-
cred in the first few houses. Some of
the wounded were not found until
morning, and the ruins yet cover many
dead. Reports are yet to be received
from the country, the path of the
storm being at least 25 miles long.
It is estimated that $50 houses were
destroyed in the village. on the west
side and 100 on the east side, in addi-
tion to about so business structures.
Reports from the country tell of scores
of farm houses crushed. About two
hours after the storm, fire broke out in
the ruins of stores and are still burning.
Explosions of cartridges and ammuni-
tion and liquor barrels began and still
continue, making the sea:ch of the
ruins difficult. At II o'clock p. IN.
relief train arrived from Saltwater and
was of vast assistance. At 5 a. m. an
other came from Chippewa Falls and
during the forenoon two more arrived
from St. Paul and Saltwater.
The policemen from St. Paul were of
much assistance in arresting drunken
men and thieves who were early at
work. They also secured the town,
bringing in wounded and dead. A fire
engine from St. Paul rendered great
service in fighting the fire. All day
hundreds Of people have wandered aim
lessly through the street, staring at the
inconceivable ruins. The residence
section Of the town on either side Of the
direct path of the storm escaped with
little injury, and left asylums for the
wounded, whose number can not be esti-
mated except by the hundreds

Frederick Palmer, the Manila CORES
pondent of the Now York World, has
the following in last Sundays World:
Manila. P. l., April, 18-It was the
fourth day after Gen Lawton . force had
loft Manila on it's dash into Laguna.
We were approaching the town OF Paete,
and squad of five Of Weissen berger's
sharpshootsrs, men from the North Da-
kota regiment, we're working their way
through the bamboo thicket. 1t had
been the bosst OF the North Dakotans
that they had as yet lost no men in
action.
Suddenly the squad received q volley
OF 6fty ehots from an insurRent trench
fifteen yards in front. Two men were
killed, one mortal]y wounded, one
slightly wounded and the fifth unhurt.
He was Slutland, big and red checked.
He does not think he did anything re-
msrkable; but instead of running he
dropped behind rock, yelled for assls-
tance and emptied the chamber OF his
rifle intol the enemy. He held bis
ground till assistance came, and then he
joined in the charge of our line, which
emptied the trenches.
That night two North Dakota men
who knew that their wounds were NOR
tai were lying on cots side by side.
"Let's smile and die game," one said.
1--WE might % we'll whistle too," was
the reply.
They whistled until their breath gave
oat and thenithey died smiling.
II have heard that the American VOL
untsers didn't do we'll in Cuba" said an
Englishman who accompanied the ex-
pedition. ''Damme, won't you please

MAJOR Frame was the ssddest man 10
the army the next day.
"The MAJOR cusees Us lot" said one
OF his men, 'but seeing how be took
this to heart, l guess bis cussin's pretty
we'll on the surface, and he cusses
mostly for our good and to cover up his
own feelin'e."
The expedition, having spent three
days IN the field proceeded to eat up its
ten day ratlons. While it rested in the
towns it ate cocoanuts and mangoes and
got the diarrhoes Then 1t went home
on the seventh day.
The three days work was magnificent
and exhibited the endurance of our
men. Before taking part in the final
tight at Paete, the North Dskotans
marched twelve miles, carrying ammuni.
ton and blankets and fordlng streams
This is equal to about thirty.five miles
unaccourted on Broadway IN August.
