Sioux City, Iowa, Nov. 1.-THE bank
at GIeenville, nine miles north of Sioux
City, was entered, dynamite exploded UNI
der the safe and vault and the contents
taken. The bank building was wrecked.
The bank is owned by the bank of Sioux
Rapids and kept on hand a comparatively
small amount of cash.
The robbers are supposed to have es-
capped on a handcar, as one belonging at
Greenville was found at Rock Island
crossing two miles south of there.
The bank robbers were found in the de-
pot at Albert City this afternoon by Of
ficers and posse. When ordered to sur
render the robbers opened fire, wounding
c. j. Iodine, the city marshal, in the
hip and John Sunbland, business man,
in the shoulder One robber was fatally
shot in the stomach by the posse. The
robbers escaped to the country, and meet
ing a farmer with team compelled him
to drive them east until his horses gave
out, and they met another farmer, whom
they compelled to take them farther.
They were overtaken by a posse from Al
bert City, and headed off by posse from
Laurens, six miles east of Storm lake,
where they were taken for safe keeping.
Two are white and one is a mullato.
The wounded man is about 40 years of
age, heavy set and wears a stubby brown
moustache. The other white man is short
and stout.

A TTamp'S Thanksgiving.
BY WELDON J. COBB.


CO thanksgiving cheer was in the
air; it spoke in the crisp activity
- of the village butcher, grocer and
baker, in the appetizing odors of home
kitchens, in the eager faces of school
children, elated and excited over no
studies for the rest of the week!'
Hobo Bill, gentleman of leisure, came
down the winding country road with an
eagle eye for the occasion His rollick-
ing glance took in the pretty town calcu-
latingy, and settled upon its most pre-
tentious mansion with conviction and
hope.
DAY before Thanksgiving, he solilo-
Quized. Most likely to have the fullest
pantry in the biggest house. Here goes!'
Bill observed IA path cutting across
yard. 1t was somewhat Overgrown, but
he kept on, to come not TO a gate, but
a solid board fence. He clambered to its
top, to be halted by a sharp mandates:
"Hey! get down therer'
Bill, astride the fence, confronted
6ne-looking but angry-eyed old gentleman.
"Al right" he said
"And stay down"
"Yes, sir
"What you after, anyway"
"Well, sir" answered Bill, 81 was aim
ing for your kitchen and grub"
Don't bother mel! gruffiy growled the
other. 'Try the house there. They raise
tramps there"
Bin tors this auspiciously, viewing a
neat cottage near at hand. The same
blockaded path ran to its rear door.
"Wonder what kind of raise | kin
expectY murmured Bill. "Hard-heart-
ed old mob, thatl AM there's the lady.
She's all right I'll tackle her"
Bill affected his most prim demeanor,
approaching a sweet-faced motherly
woman.
Lady" he said, might l intrude so
fur as to inquire If there was any chanel
of getting bite to eat"
Certainly; come in, sir"
"Heyw
Bill stared. With a welcome smile the
lady opened the door and graciously
waved him to a chair. Bill DOTTED his hat,
and hid his ragged shoes and gave his
wiry hair a smoothing toss.
She folded a snowy tablecloth over one
end of the table. She set out delicate
china plate a silver fork and a napkin.
"Gingerr' gasped Bill, when tell this
to the gang, they'll say l dreamed itw
And then the gentleman in Bill came

Know all men by these presents that
We turkeys do protest
Against an annual outrage which
Brings sorrow to the nest
We think 1t most becoming for
A nation to give thanks,
But we object in firm tones when
1t cuts into our ranks.
Think of the widowed ones, and think
OF orphans In the flock,
Who must this year with sadness view
The cruel chOpping block.

Our pleadings may be heard,
And II you must give thanks and feast

Guthrie, o. T., Nov l7.-Separate
schools for Indian children is the latest
issue politically in Oklahoma. In some
counties many of the indians attend the
public schools which have been established
for the whites, and the latter do not be-
lieve in allowing the redskins these privi-

the negro schools.

her husband she Travelled extensively in
| Europe and elsewhere, as the result Of
| which she contributed an interesting
series of letters OF travel to American
newspapers, her articles being illustrated
by Mr.. Forbes who is an enthusiastic
amateur photographer.
Five years ago Mr.. and Mrs. Forbes
came TO California to reside. During the
past year Mrs. Forbes has written, over
the signature Of Harry Forbes, a very in
| teresting series of articles on Chinese life
and customs, and military topics. which
have been widely published Her cosy
| home at No. CD West Fifteenth street,
| Los Angeles. is filed with choice bric-a-
| bac. gathered from all parts Of the world,
and is a favorite redezvous OF artists ana
literary people.
Asked how she became possessed of
the idea Of decorating the watery graves
! Of departed seamen. Mrs. Forbes said
/ she accidentally paraphrased the Scrip
/ tural injunction. Cast thy bread upon
the waters" by substituting flowers
for bread" and the thought immedi-
| atelyly came to her that it would be very
appropriate. especially in this land Of
| flowers, California, TO honor the mem
DRY of dead sailors as well as dead sol
diers with fragrant blossoms. With
| characteristic energy the little woman
| Immediately set 10 work to inaugurate
the pretty custom. with such success that
it has now become practically national
movement.
Mrs. Forbes claims no special credit
for what she has done in the matter of
reveT1ng the memory Of the naval heroes
whose bed is in the brine. but she has
received hundreds Of letters congratulate
ing her on the success of the movement
and heartily endorsing the sentiment
which prompted it.
Some of the endorsers Of the sugges-
ton, like Captain Jack Crawford the
Poet Scout" have expressed their ap-
probation in verse. Among those who
have burst into poetry on the subject is
Prof. J. w. Graham, superintendent of
public schools at Hanford, Cal, whose
muse prompted him TO write:
Thou wild wailing ocean, in thy rest
Come bear these sweet roses to our hon
ored dead,
Why slumber in peace. in thy dark
depths below.
Where none but thy waves with these
tokens may go.
Come each sparkling wavelet tiny leaf
bear
To Irvine the sailor-boy's coral-bound
hair;
Or press a loved kiss on each battle
stained brow;
IT'S all a sad Nation can do for them
now.
Then let the sweet roses be cast on thy
breast,
And let thy sad murmur one brief mo
ment rest,
Until these pure emblems are borne from
above,
To shed their sweet perfume Ger those
that we love.
It's but our glad tribute to those thou
hast claimed,
Who lie in thy bosom unknown and IN
named,
And slumber in peace to thy murmuring
strain
Which soothed them in life as they
sailed DER the MAN.
Their home is now with thee, in peace let
them sleep
Until the kind Father calls them from
the deep,
And bids them to leave thy low coral
lined dell,
In His holy presence forever to dwell.
