and banker of that city. Behind
the action is story of swift love, an
obdurate parent and social disparity
In his complaint Clark alleges that

1908, when he was a marine on the
United States steamship Minnesota
accompanying the American fleet on
its trip around the world He had
but few hours shore leave at Santa
Barbara, but in that short time he
gained the consent of Miss Vedder
to marry him, conditioned. he says.
upon his retirement from the service
of Uncle Sam.
He says that after the cruise
around the world he so conducted
himself that he was found guilty of
breaches of discipline which caused
his discharge. He then came to Cali

be told that her father would not
consent to the marriage and that

Christmas present. +
+ *I++ +++++f
The story goes back seven years,
to 1902, when Harvey was switching
on the Shawnee (Okla.) branch OF
the NJ. X. & T. railroad. One cold
day in December, Harvey came across
poor tramp huddled in a box car
at a small place called Konawa. co
miles from Oklahoma City.
1t was against the rules to let him
ride; but the man was so weak and
cold that Harvey carried him He
talked with him en- route, and at the
first stop at Shawnee got him q meal.
The fellow ate ravenously and Har-
vey felt sorry for him.
At Oklahoma City he took him to
his room, fitted him out with. good
underwear and an old coat, and gave
him 81. The fellow begged Harvey
with tears in his eyes for his ad-
dress.
"Oh, that's all right, " said Harvey.
Il won't ever miss the 50. When
you get on your feet and another poor
devil comes along. pass the two bucks
on to him. So long and keep a stiff
upper lip"
But the fellow was insistent. and
Harvey gave him his mothers adj
dress at Checotah. Il don't know
how long I'll be twisting brake beams
on this end" said Harvey: but she'll
always know where | am"
Yesterday morning Harvey got
letter which had been forwarded to
him by his mother from Checotah.
Okla. He got 1t at the Anthony on
west b street, where he lives, lust as
he was going TO work He put the
letter in his pocket and forgot all
about it until late last night
Then he opened the letter. AS he

BANK ROBBER LINCOLN NAN
Mysterious Imogene Bandit Identi.
fed as Auriel Walla.
WIFE GLITTERs WITH DIAMONDS
Walla Had Good Reputation I'm
60 Last June, but Is Now sus-
pected of Several
"JObs."

SIDNEY, Ia. April 3.-(Speciall-The
identity OF the bank robber. who. as Ed
ward Gordon was sentenced to serve ten
years at the state reformatory at Anamosa
has finally been discovered. He was identi-
fled by Detective Malone Of the Lincsln
police force as Amlel Walla of Lincoln.
The bandits wife and brother came to
visit him, but did not arrive until after
Sheriff Harris had departed for Anamosa
with his prisoner. The woman was very
stylishly dressed and wore diamonds.
Detective Malone said that Walla bore
q good record up until last June. Since
that time he has been suspected Of com
plicity In no less than five robberies. He
has been arrested three times. but so far
as known has never before been convicted.
II Is now believed that he was the ring
leader Of the gang who looted the Imogene
bank. and tnat his pals were both young
men, instead OF pld-timers, as he repre-
scented them to he.
waila says that II 1t hadn't been for the
fool farmers they would all have made
their getaway successfully. One farmer
discovered the robbers asleep in his straw
pile. and another held up walla with a
shotgun. ordering him to surrender or he'd
blow his head off, He surrendered and
kept his head-by a close shave. As walla's
identity has come put, II is now thought
that the rounding up of his accomplices
is merely q matter OF time. A letter sup
posed to have been written by the bandits
wife, was received by Marshal Moomaw
OF Sidney. She signed herself Mrs. Walla,
