Especial to The Times D!spatchl
Amherst. Va. October 2i.--An I'M
successful attempt was made here
this morning about o'clock TO rob
the safe o. the Farmers Bank. u State
institution. but the burglars were dis
covered and frightened off before they
completed their job. and the funds OF
the bank were untouched
Reports differ as TO the number of
men engaged in the effort to rob the
hank. TWO men were seen, but II Is
believed that more Of them were en-
gagged in the attempt. They escaped
in the direction OF Lynchburg. either
in an automobile or on horseback
Before leaving the town. the yegg-
men shot up Main Street. but no one
was struck by any OF the bullets. A
number of shots were fired In front
OF the bank. Then two of the
strangers went in the direction Of
the courthouse, where three shots
were fired. They returned to the bank
shot three more. and then disappeared
1t is evident that the several outside
doors OF the banks safe were blown
off by heavy charges OF nitroglyccrina
The charge. however. failed to dis
lodge the inner docs OF the safe. and
the burglars were in the act OF pre-
pari. & TO blow this open when they
were frightened off the job.
The cracks around the door had been
hllcd with the liquid, and it ran down
over the floor. In sufficient quantities.
1t Is believed. to have demolished the
building had it been discharged.
1t is not known how much money
was kept in the bank, but it Is thought
this must he between $1,000 and $4,000.
No statement as TO the amount OF funds
missed by the would-be robbers is
given out for publication.
An Investigation this morning shows
that the entrance to the banking room
was effected through rear window.
In the room were found monkey
wrench. punch and hammer. which
had been stolen from a nearby black
smith shop. In addition to these there
was pick and pinch bar, which
were taken from the Southern station.
Three hundred yards from the bank
Il lantern was picked up. which is be-
lieved to have been dropped by the

GETS THREE THOUSAND.
Ellen Osenberg Content With Wash
burn Compromise.

Following a conference this morn
ing of attorneys in the Ellen Osenberg
case, compromise was announced,
whereby Mrs. Osenberg will receive
$4,000 in addition to the property
which had been decided &c her by John
w Moore. Washburn college, to
which Moore had willed his $4,000
estate, will pay the costs in the Feb
ruary trial.
The plaintiff in the action was for
more than thirteen years q housekeep-
er in the Moore home. Herself and
son testified in the recent hearing that
Moore had frequently stated that when
he died he would leave her property
which would make her very wealthy.
But Moore gave the woman property
valued at less than $4,000.
It was while Moore was in Christ 8
hospital that he gave the woman a
deed to certain Topeka property val
ued at $4,000 and signed a will which
transferred the remainder of his
estate to Washburn college He pro-
vided that the money should be placed
in a fund for the education of poor
Kansas boys and girls who were un-
able ito pay for an education. At
tached TO the will was memorandum
signed by Mrs. Osenberg in which she
accepted the terms of the will.
Not until the provisions of the will
were made public did Mrs. Osenberg
assert her rights Then she said that
she had signed the memorandum un-
der a misapprehension and that she
believed she was to receive large
share of the estate. Mrs. Osenberg
imm ediately filed proceedings to con-
test the will. She obtained a verdict
for $4,000.
