BANDIT is SHOT.
While Trying to Rob Pullman Passen-
gers Brakeman Gets Drop on Him.

Belle Plain, Ia. July iS.-A bandit
who attempted to hold up the occu-
pants of a Pullman sleeping car on
eastbound North Western passenger
train No. at an early hour today lies
in local hospital with a bullet wound
in his side. He gave his name to the
police as William Morris and said his
home was in Plainheld, N J. The bull
let wound was inflicted by Arthur
Morris. who subdued the bandit after
a hard struggle
When the train was between Tama
and Belle Plain the occupants of the
car were awakened by William Nor
ris, as he calls himself, who demand
ed in loud tones that they surrender
their money and other va1uab1es.
While the surprised passengers were
hurrying to comply with the order the
brakeman slipped into the car and got
the drop on the bandit. The latter re-
sisted and the brakeman fred one
shot, which entered the outlaws side.
He was brought to Belle Plain and
placed in a hospital, where his condi-
ton is pronounced dangerous.

Shontses face eviction because they
have no funds with which to pay rent
arrears. It is stated at the Shonts Of
flee that he has sent them sufficient
money to take care of the rent, but this
check has not been received to date.
1t is quite evident that one American
gentleman has little or no use for the
social advantages of the French court
and would very much prefer that his
wife and daughter return to the Unite1
States and cease parading about
Europe lavishinc money everywhere.
