HERR BANDMAN
DIES SUDDENLY
WORLD RENOWNED ACTOR DROPS
DEAD AT HIS RANCH NEAR
MlSSOULA.

Missoula, Nov. 24.-Daniel E. Band

and one of the best known residents of
Montana, dropped dead at his ranch
near Missoula last night of heart fail

and was born at Cassel, Germany. He

Was Famous Man.
The passing of Herr Bandmann re-
moved one of the best known CHAR.
acters of Montana. An actor who had
appeared in all the leading cities OF
this country, as we'll as before the
crowned heads of Europe during his
long and varied stage career, Band
mann had as large an acquaintance
perhps ny man in the state.
During the past score of years, save
for intermittent occasions, Herr Band
mann had spent the last years of his
life on farm near MissOula. So great
was his love for Snakespearean plays
however, that he seldom denied those
who sought his services.
On two such occasions he visited
Helena, the last time about year ago
when in behalf of the Colorado suffer
ers he gave rendition of "Richelieu.'
Bandmann showed to better advantage
perhaps, as Shylock in the Merchant
Of Venice" In this rendition he had
few equals.

stranger in Helena. 1t is remembered
by many that he was the defendant in
the celebrated suit of Louise Baudet,
in which breach of contract was al
legged. The suit was tried in the fed
eral court and had more than one dra-
matte passage.
Especially was this true on one &C.
casion, when Bandmann, who was on
the witness stand, and in response to
an Interrogation of the plaintiffs law
yer, he arose, and majestically declar-
ed: "Sir, l love that woman" mean
ing Miss Baudet.
Mr.. Bandmann was once a member
of the state board of horticulture, be-
ing an appointee of Governor Robert
r. Smith. While thus serving, he first
called attention to the Goblin moth,
a pest that had done great damage,
and which resulted in more rigid in
spection of fruit shipped to this state
from California and other states.

er posse, consisting Of city police aug.
mented by citizens, appeared in front
of them, and, seeing that further fight
was cut of, they stopped the horses
and made desperate stand. Lane was
thrown to the bottom of the wagon,
and. crouching over him, shielding
themselves to the best possible advan-
tage, the convicts opened fire, back to
back on their pursuers. The prison
officials shouted to them to surrender
or they would be shot dead. Their
only reply was a volley from their re-
volvers. Then followed a desperate
street battle. The posse jumped be-
hind trees and shot with telling eff
feet, splintering the wagon and final
ly putting bullet through one of the
convicts, who fell to the ground. The
others, seeing that death was inevi-
table and further resistance useless,
surrendered.
1t was found that Convicts Vaughn
and Blake We're suffering from bullet
wounds. Driver Orville Lane and Con.
victs Ryan and Raymond were I'M
hurt. The convicts were Immediately
taken back to the penitentiary, where
their wounds were given medical at
tention. while the uninjured were plac-
ed in solitary confinement in dungeon
cells.
Convict Harry Vaughn from st.
Louis. was sentenced for IS years for
first degree robbery. Vaughn was a |
member of the Morris Rossenau gang,
with which three detectives fought a
terrific battle on Chestnut street in
ST. Louis. One detective was shot
dead and the other two detectives
died later in the city hospital from
wounds. Rossenau, one of the lead
ers, was shot dead at Morris, the 9TH
er leader, died subsequently from
wounds. Vaughn was badly beaten
up and after recovery was convicted
ad sentenced to the penitentiary.
Eli Zeigler from Warrensburg, was
sentenced to three years for robbing
dead bodies at railroad wreck.
