Elderly Man Proved Himself Equal to
the Emergency.
II am quite willing to contribute to
the-er-amusement Of the evening""
interposed the amateur poet. who was
bursting to read hts latest, and
couldn't get anybody to take the
hints he threw out.
There was a sound like a groan
from corner OF the room, and a
guest went out The others prepared
for the worst, except one elderly man,
who pulled down his waistcoat with
determination. H.. -"
"The title of this little effort" the
poet went on, drawing a roll from an
unsuspected pocket, "is The Rain
drops on the Roof" "..
We'll of course it does," exclaimed
the elderly man. where would you
expect it to drop? When the rain
drops On any well-regulated house it
naturally chooses the roof. Perhaps
you expect people to take the roof
off when it rains? Or you think that
we imagine that it drops on the
foundation, or in the umbrella stand?
Everybody else knows that rain drops
on the roof, young man, and they
don't want you to write poem to tell
'er1 If you can write one that will
explain why it rains when man goes
out in new hat and without an um.
.brella, we're open to hear it."

BATTLE WITH BANDITS
POST OFFICE BURGLARS SUR
ROUNDED BY ARMED POSSE.

Special Dispatch to The Star
WILDROSE, Wis, October AFTER rob-
bling the post office here of $500 and maxi
ing an unsuccessful attempt to loot the
Wildrose State Bank, four safe blowers
and burglars were surrounded by a posse
of farmers in a forest eight miles from
here this afternoon. A pitched battle en-
sued, in which one bandit was shot down
and killed. two others wounded and one
was captured and brought here to Jail.
The gang are believed to be members of
the Eddie Fay organization The burglars
came to Wildrose in the night and broke
into the post office at l o'clock this morn
ing. The safe was blown up and $500 in
money and 500 in stamps was stolen.
Leaving the wrecked building. they made
their way to the state bank. They sue
ceeded in inserting large quantities of
nitro-glyceiin into the lock, but before
they could explode it they were scared
away.
Four men were in the gang and at day
break Were seen leaving the village. Be
fore daylight the alarm had been given in
the village and everybody in the neighbor
hood was aroused. The marshal hurriedly
summoned an armed posse and started an
investigation At the bank no one dared
to go near the safe for fear of exploding
the charge of nitro-glycern. An expert
was telegra phed for to Milwaukee and
Pnkerton detective was asked to be sent
from Chicago. Search for the bandits was
then begun Mlkmen who came to the
village at daybreak reported having seen
four rough-looking men along the road
north of here Fifty men, armed with
rifles and shotguns, took up the trail. At
noon the suspicious characters were sur
rounded in a forest. They We're found hid
ing in the underbrush and were told to sur
render. In spite of the enormous odds
against them the burglars refused to do so.
Come and get u.s., mockingly shouted
one of the men.
At that time revolver shot from the d.
rection of the brush showed that the ban
dts were ready for fight. Almost in
stantly the firing began. For an hour and
half the thieves and farmers kept up a
continued firing, and one by one the ban
dts were brought down in spite of their
efforts to hide behind fallen logs.
