FORD BANK ROBBERY.
Recalls Some of the Former Gun
Fighters Around Dodge City.

Western Kansas has been singularly
free from hold-ups and bank robber1es,
notwithstanding the fact that the safes
are crowded with valuables. The men
doubtedly started for the Bad Lands in
Oklahoma, having as an objective
point a hiding place in the fastness OF
Beaver county. where capture viii be
next to an impossibility.
Ford is 90 miles east and south of
Dodge City, the home of many former
gun fighters, man hunters and bad
men. The country to the south Is ex-
excepting for two excellent roads
which traverse the district north and
south and reach the Oklahoma line.
Once the robbers gain their objective
point in Oklahoma they will be able to
defend themselves against force
greatly outnumbering theirs.
There are now living in the vicinity
of the robbery half score of the men
who were famous when Dodge City
was known as the worst town in the
west. The excitement of the chase will
probably make them part of the
posse now in pursuit of the robbers
and woe betide the bandits If sighted.
Among the famous old timers who are,
/ in all probability, on the trail are
| Chalk Beeson and Ham Bell who for
a number of years have held the Of
fee of sheriff of Ford county between
them. John Madden. city marshal at
Dodge City and son of famous sire,
Pat Shughrue, Jim Kelly and perhaps
Lieutenant Governor Fitzgerald.
| The robbery occurred only a few
miles from the ranch of Governor
| Fitzgerald and near the Soldiers
home where Jim Kelly, the famous
old peace officer of Dodge City when it
was in it's halcyon days, is spending
his declining years.
History records but one bank rob-
| berry in this section of the state and
| the perpetrators were run to earth and
killed or captured. In 1894 Bill Doolin
and his gang came up from No Mans
Land and in broad daylight robbed the
bank of Spearville, 20 miles north of
| the location of the present robbery.
| James Baird, an old man, was beaten
| nearly to death before he quit fight
| ing and the robbers, taking all of the
cash in sight, fled to the south on
| horseback.
Chalk Beeson was sheriff at the time
and followed the bandits trail into the
| bad lands of Oklahoma and in fight
| that ensued one or two of the robbers
| were killed and the remainder were
| afterwards killed or captured. Several
| of the men who formed the posse in
1894 are on the trail of the robbers of
| the bank at Ford, and a safe guess is
that the bandits will be either killed or
captured before the chase is aban-

The regular use of a good complexion

ounce of almozoin and put it in half a
pint of cold water. adding two teaspoon
fuls of glycerine. Stir and let stand over

taking out all dust, oil and CRIME. Its
regular use tends to make large pores
the skin soft, pliable and fresh looking,
and removes tan, freckles and skin PIN
pies. Almozoin cream jelly can be used
both as a massage cream and face cream
for it contains nothing that might cause a
growth of hair. 1t is splendid for chapped
face and hands.
Miss NJ J.: It is no wonder that your
friends think you wear a switch. The
light streaks in your hair are the result
of shampooing with soap All soap and
alkah which takes the very life out of
the hair and leaves it dry, dull and brittle.
When. you wash your hair be sure to use
a good and reliable shampoo, and you will
note a big Improvement in your hair.

''Brewster's Millions" the play after

enough as play to make good by it

are necessary to make it a real success.
When "Brewster's Millions" first took to
the boards, it was presented by good
cast, and was voted the comedy hit of
the season. The principal feature of
last nights performance was the scenic
effect of the third act which, aside
from being a little time and travel
worn, is the same as shown in the or

who played the difficult part of Monty
