HOlD-UP
Masked Men Rob Street Car Motor
man and Escape.

Minneapolis, Nov. 10. "A daring
hold-up carried out in every detail in
true melodramatic wild and woolly"
Western style took place at Chicago
avenue and Forty-fifth street, Min
neapolis, about 10 o'clock Sunday
night, when three masked men enter
ed a car on the Chicago avenue extern
sion and at the point of gun robbed
Motorman Orlando B.. Soule of 218
Third avenue northeast of $25in money
and gold watch valued at $25.
Soule works one of the ''dinky'
cars than run on Chicago avenue
from Thirty-eighth to Forty-sixth
streets, acting both as nnotorman and
conductor. He had stopped his car
at Forty-fifth street, and was count
ing over his money, $25 in all, of
which about half was his own, when
the three masked men entered the
car, each one armed with revolver.
Showing their weapons in his face
they demanded his money and val
tables on pain of death, cautioning
him not to try to give an alarm if
he valued his life, they ordered him
from the car. One of the bandits
then started the car, while the other
two kept Soule covered with their
guns, and ran the car down to
Fortieth street, where after tying the
trolley down the trio abandoned it.

SHOT down IN
A Street DUEL
EX-SENATOR CARMACk KILLED
IN STREET BECAUSE OF Po-
LlTIcAL EDITORIALS.
Robin Cooper, Young Attorney, With
His Father, Accosts Victim and
Bullets Fly Fast. Tragedy 10 Sc
quel of Campaign.

Nashville, Tenn, Nov. 10.-Edward
Ward Carmack, former United States
senator from Tennessee, was killed
yesterday afternoon in a duel with
Col. Duncan B. Cooper, a Democrat
ic politician, and Robin Cooper, the
latter's son.
The fatal clash occurred in the
street and was the elimination of a
series of editorials that appeared in
the Tennesseean, daily paper that
has been published by Carmack since
his retirement from political life.
The articles were caustic criticisms
of the policies of Democratic leaders
and in some of them direct refer
ences were made to Col. Cooper.
He was taken to a surgeons Office
and an ambulance was called and the
remains of Senator Carmack were re-
moved to an undertaker's establish
ment.
Later Col. Cooper was taken into
custody and held at police headquar-
tiers. Robin Cooper was removed to
hospital.
AhO ohoooihS CouSCu SUCH d ocuSd-
ton in the city and occurred so
quickly and unexpectedly that the
police have been unable to get any
definite information from persons
who were near the scene of the trag-
edy. The Coopers will not talk, alb
solutely refusing to make any state
ments thus far. The younger Cooper
is one of the younger attorneys of
this city and it is believed that the
father and son have agreed to refrain
from talking of the affair.
Spectators declare that Carmack
fired but one shot, but his revolver,
found where he fell, had been fired
twice, as two of the cylinders were
empty. AS to which party began the
shooting, that is a mystery.

Big pltching.

Brainerd.-R. A. Ely of MARSHALL
town, who is taking out half million
cubic yards of earth for the state OF
Minnesota in Koochiching county,
says that contractors in the swamps
Of the north generally have put in q
very good year.
r. A. Ely & Son are building two
bitches in Koochiching county which
they will complexion contract time,
the first Of the year. Both bitches
drain into the Rainy river basin and
are located near International Falls.
One of the machines is digging down
the ditch and on the other ditch the
machine is digging up from the Rainy
river. The bitches are very long and
deep and will drain many thousands
of acres of tillable land in that neigh
borhood.
The machines employed on the work
are ''fioaters" or vertical dredges.
Their progress has been threatened
somewhat on account of the lack OF
water during the dry months of the
year. Even at this time, however, wa
ter is very scarce and some difficulty
is experienced in getting enough to
float these huge machines.

stomach and nerves began to give me
much trouble.
"At times my appetite was vora-

followed. Other times I had no appetite
whatever. The food I took did not
nourish me, and grew weaker than
ever.
II lost interest in everything, and
wanted to be alone. had always had
good nerves, but now the merest trife
