Davenport. Iowa. Nov. GA west

Rock Island road, known as No II, was
held up by twelve masked robbers soon
after midnight this morning three miles
west of Davenport The robbers uncoup-
led the express car and ran it two miles
further west, where the safe was blown
open with dynamite. The explosion was
heard in Davenport.
The train which was robbed left Chicago
at sos last night. 1t was the fast train
that runs through to Fort Worth by the
way of st. Joseph and Kansas City.
The robbers We're successful in remoV-
ing the contents OF the safe from the eX-
press car No person was injured.
The robbers stopped the train by pla-
cling red lantern on the track. When
the engineer saw the danger signal he
brought the train to a stop. Five masked
men boarded the train. detached the mail
and express cars, and. forcing the engineer
to accompany them, took these cars west
ward leaving the rest of the train stand
ing on the main track. Near Gale Siding
the express car was blown up. The train
usually carries a large amount of money.
Loss Was Heavy.
Train No. II is one Of the popular trains
on the Rock Island road, and is known to
carry in the express car thousands Of dol
lars for Kansas City merchants and
banks and their correspondents through
out the west and southwest. The fact
was evidently known to the robbers. else
they would not have selected this especial
train for their work
Railroad and express company officials
intimate that the loss will be one Of the
heaviest sustained by any of the express
companies for several years. They de-
clare that unless the nights business was
exceptionally small there might be any
press companys safe, besides other valu-
ables Of no inconsidera BILE sum.

STORY OF ELLEN GORE
What Is Known Of Her Life In the Ca.
madam Northwest.

Vancouver. B. c., Nov. 22.-Special in
terest in the reigning sensation Of Paris
Is felt throughout western Canada, where
Ellen Gore, then only budding into beau
teous womanhood, was some ten years ago
or more leader in both musical and So
cial circles. Her husband, Thomas Gore,
was noted for his explorations into the
wilds Of the Canadian northland as presi-
dent of the Provincial Land Surveyors
association. It was on a professional
visit to Lower California that the young
Canadian became acquainted with the
singer. He was vocalist Of considerable
ability and an acquaintance fostered by
mutual love Of music fast ripened into
love. After the marriage at Los Angeles
Mr.. and Mrs. Gore returned to Victoria
There Mrs. Gore reigned undisputed queen
of the social and musical world until dis
cord was sown in the household by the
chance remark of the director Of Emma
Abbott's company, then touring the west,
that voice such as hers belonged to art
and the public rather than to the family
circle. Her ambition was fired and her
insistence being met with equal deter
mination upon her husbands part not to
lose his wife even for arts sake, she
finally went to San Francisco where a
divorce was obtained upon a technical
charge of cruelty and non-support. Then
the Divorce drifted out of the orbit Of
her former husbands life and he has
since had only casual reports Of her in
Mexico, at Naples. at st. Petersburg and
Leipsig. He never remarked and still re-
tanned slumbering regard for his wife
AS to her tragic death he has no advices
save those contained in the papers. Mr..
Gore Is the brother Of w. D. Gore, the
present deputy commissioner Of public
| lands and works for British Columbia.

mometer rose several degrees, only to
drop to about 2s this morning about

The prediction for today is fair and
colder. In all sections of the United
States there are reports of snow and

try east of the Rockey mountains.
The drop in temperature here amounted
to nearly thirty degrees the highest re-
