A Bank Blown and Thous-
ands Taken.
They Cut Wires at GiIbertsViIIe, IsO'

Checking the Villagers With
Parthian Shots.
Parthian Shots
(By the Associated Press. }

Oneonta N. Y, May "A band of
masked robbers rode into the village
of Gilbertsville, about fifteen miles
from here at 8 o'clock this morning,
blew open the modern and supposedly
burglar proof safe in the private bank
of e. c. Brewer, and made good their
escape with booty estimated at be-
tween 5000 and $4,000. When the
startled villagers were awakened by
the muffled roar of the explosion ana
had been halted by the pistol fire of
the retreating bandits. they found that
the robbers had completely isolated
GilbertSVile from the outside world
by cutting all the telegraph and tele-
phone wires. Efforts to communicate
with neighboring towns We're futile.
Parties are searching the woods in
every direction in hope that the rob-
bers have sought shelter in the thick
cts and will seek to leave the vicinity
of their daring exploit under cover of
darkness tonight. The bold attack ri
balls in the details of its thoroughness,
it's daring and it's success, the exploits
of the most notorious bandits of the
western country. -
1t is believed there were five men
in the band. That all were heavily
armed was shown by the frequency of
their fire when the villagers arrived
near the bank. The men first pried
open the front door of the bank. Not
a light glimmered in the village and
they evidently set about their work
leisurely. Two holes We're drilled into
the heavy steel doors of the newly in
stalled safe and into these the eXplos-
i've, believed to have been nitrogly-
cerine, was inserted. The explosion
which followed wholly wrecked the
safe and shattered every window in
the bank building. The robbers hast
lily gathered up all the money exposed
by the explosion and started on a run
ust as the first of the awakened viii
layers reached the scene. Other resi-
dents quickly came up. but in the
meantime the invaders were making
good their escape, firing as they went.

A SAD DEATH.
Friends Step i'm and Render Services
of Sympathy and Love.

There was a sad death in the hum
BILE walks of life yesterday when Mrs.
Hulda Mines passed away at the home
of Mrs. Finch on Jones street. 1t had
in it the deepest elements of sadness
and with these a lesson in brotherly
love that finds the world
The deceased, who was about 50
years old, was a member Cyl the Bap-
fist church and had been living in
Raleigh for about fifteen months, and
for some time was employed at the
Childrens' Nursery on Salisbury street.
Later she was housekeeper in some
homes here and did some work in the

little son is in the Oxford Orphanage.
Her death came suddenly yesterday
morning and there was no money left
by her, no relatives at hand to see
to her burial. Friendship stepped in
and secured a casket and carriage,
the funeral being conducted yester-
day afternoon from the parlor of the
J. w. Brown Coffin House. There
were a number of ladies and gentle

day, the 114th anniversary Of The
Polish Constitution, and More
BIoodshed May Follow.
(By the Associated Press.)

Warsaw May 2.-9.11 p. m.-The
Day death roll totalled sixty-two in
Guiding ten persons who died in the
hospitals during the night. Probably
two hundred were wounded
Some minor disturbances occurred
today IN different sections of the city
but no casualties have yet been re-
ported.
All day long infantry and cavalry
patrolled the streets which were
crowded with people who did not spare
their criticism of what was generally
termed an unnecessary slaughter. The
popular irritation could not be con-
cealed. The soldiers evidently were
nervous, and open outbreaks resulting
in a repetition of yesterdays terrible
scenes were only averted by the evil
dent desire of the authorities to pre-
vent a clash coupled with the fear
inspired by the soldiers bullets. The
population is most bitter against the
military and the government officials
expect many attempts at revenge upon
the officers commanding the troops, all
of whom are known.
The nationaliStS have arranged the
usual demonstrations for tomorrow,
the Hath anniversary of the procla-
nation of the Polish constitution, and
disturbances are highly probable. The
Workingmen are in an ugly and uncer-
tain mood. The workmen at all the
factories struck today, and great eff
forts are being made to bring about a
general strike, but this is not likely to
be successful. The people have not
yet recovered from the exhaustion and
losses resulting from the last strike.
The Industrial population are deep
ly exasperated over the Sanguinary re-
suits of yesterdays encounters The
strikes inaugurated on a large scale
here, at LodZ and in other cities are
rapidly spreading and $4,000 persons
are on strike in LODI. Cossacks are
patrolling the streets OF Warsaw by
companies on account of the danger to
smaller attachments.
A great crowd which gathered to-
day in front of the police stations to
which the corpses of those killed on
Monday had been taken, demanding
the bodies of their dead, was dispersed
by CossackS.
According to an official statement
the dead, not including those of the
wounded who died in hospitals, num-
bered thirty-one. The majority of the
dead were working people.
In Lodz, according to an official re-
port, four women We're killed.

TO STOP CONTRACTION.
Plan to Erect Preventive House Here
Medical Board OF Rex Hospital
Recommend This to the
Trustees.

There is a proposition being urged
which if favorably conslderel and
arranged will do much wards add
ing to the health record nf Raleigh.
This is to erect a bull i'i'G in which
to place patients affected with conta-
gious diseases, these patients to be
such as are temporarily residing in
the city, who are at h )tels or board
ing houses, or who are in l,Omes
where the proper attention can MT
be given them.
The purpose is to- have in this
building patients suffering from such
diseases as scarlet fever, diptherla
whooping cough and other contagious
or infectious diseases except smallpox.
Oftimes people are affected with these
and the disease is spread by people
passing in and out of the homes of
the patients.
The proposition for this building
comes from the medical board of Rex
Hospital, who at a meeting passed
recommendations to this effect, the
recommendations being sent to the
Board of Trustees of Rex Hospital
which meets on Monday night next.
The same matter will be presented to
the new Board of Health to be elect
ed by the new Board of Aldermen. 1t
is hoped to get aid from the city N
this matter.
No place has been selected in which
to erect the building though there has
been some talk of placing this on the
Rex Hospital lot. This, however, is
considered as being too cramped, as
the present buildings cover large
portion of it. 1t is suggested that
some citizen with lands on the edge
Of the city could aid this plan great
ly by donating sufficient land on
which to erect building to be used
tor atients with contagious disease.

MAXWELL GoRMAN IN JAIL.
Suffering From Mental Alteration
Confinement Became Imperative.

Maxwell German, who for many
years has been engaged>in newspaper
work in Raleigh, was yesterday con-
lined in Wake county Jail by reason
of his mental condition, which was
such as to cause his family to fear
that he would do violence either to
himself or to others.
For several months Mr.. German had
been drinking heavily and on Monday
night his conditions became delirious
and alarming, as he exhibited signs
of suicidal mania. Yesterday Mrs.
German, who could stand the anxiety
and nervous strain no longer, was
prevailed upon by friends to take
steps to secure her husbands confine-
ment, if possible in the Hospital for
the Insane. DR.. Mckee stated, how,
ever. that this was impossible, owing
to the crowded condition of the hos
pital, although Governor Glenn. Rev.
DR.. Tyree and others interested them
selves actively in the case. In the
afternoon the necessity of taking some
action became apparent and it was
only then that application was made
to the sheriff to put Mr.. German in
jail.
Mr.. German has large number of
friends who deeply regret his con-
dition and sympathize heartily with
his family in their trouble. He is a
man who has been cursed with the
thirst of drink and at times and for
long periods fought manfully against
the craving to which he has again
succumbed. AT such times he was an
ambitious and Industrious citizen, de-
voted to his family.
The fact of this last fall, which it is
feared has cost the final loss of reason
carries with it nothing but pity to all
who know the man and his misfor-
tune

the organs working properly.

simply means a strong, healthy system.
When the nerve system is not strong and we'll

The Moss Pharmacy Say They Do
Not Charge Anything for vinol
Uuless Il Gives Satisfactory
Results.

When asked by a reporter of The
Advertiser how they could make such
a broad offer in regard to any medi-
cine, Mr.. Davis replied:
"If Vinol we're a patent or secret
preparation it would be another
thing, but it Is not, everything it cOn.
tains is named on the label.
VinOl is simply the up-tO-date form
of administering cod liver oil, which
for centuries has been recognized as
the grandest of all bodybuilding
agents for wasted human strength ami
vitality, and during the last five years
WI have seen it produce such grand
results that We Ire now willing to
back it with any kind of guarantee.
In Vinol we have simply done away
with the useless, system-clOgging oil
and have given to the people all the
medicinal, bodybuilding elements of
cod liver oil in a highly concentrated
and deliciOusly palatable form, and
we have sold in Our store a
medicine of more curative and
strengthening value than VinOl,
and If the people of Lafayette only
realized it's value we would not have
clerks enough in our store to supply
the demand for it. In a natural man
ner VinOl tones up the digestive
organs, makes rich, red blood and
creates strength. We can only ask
the people of Lafayette to try it on
our guarantee" Moss Pharmacy.

Good weather has prevailed
throughout the sugar district
since the beginning Of the cur
rent week. It has been clear.
dry and comparatively cool,
though the temperature has
scarcely been as low as is to be
expected in the middle of Novem.

the weather conditions has
greatly encouraged our sugar
planters and they have made fair
progress, while this good
weather prevailed, in the har-
vesting of their crops.
The tonnage is still reported to
be disappointing and of curse
no amount of good weather can
change this condition, but the
sugar contents of the cane is
susceptible of improvement, and
is increasing under the favorable
atmospherical conditions. The
planters have so far been work
ing their most inferior canes and
we may be able to chronicle an
improvement in the situation
when they get fairly to work on
their plant cane.
