walked in the, same direction. A few
minutes he says he heard voices out
on the bridge and then the two men
returned. The woman never appear
ed. There was nothing suspicious
about the actions of the two men and
the guard did not take it upon him

The theory is now advanced that
the men were concerned In the girls

extent of having hurled her off the
bridge and into the river which is

Chicago, July %. Chicago's
fame as one of the great Catholic
cities of the world has decided the
pope, it is reported from Rome, to
appoint another American cardinal
and Archbishop James E. QuigIey is
said to have been selected as the
wearer of the red hat. The appoint
ment probably will be announced in
the fall.
The pOpe's reasons for appointing
another American cardinal are said
to be based partly upon his wish to
avoid the cry that the American
church is dominated by Rome. He
wishes 10 avoid a repetition of tn
costly home rule campaigns which
have recently been conducted within
the church IN France, Spain and Por-
tugal.
Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore will
be II years old July %, and sooner
or later his successor will have TO
be chosen. The pope feels that this
would be the diplomatic moment to
choose q man who would be in per-
feet harmony with Rome and at the
same time be distinctly an American
head OF the American church, it is
said.

Galesburg, ILL.,, July 22.-Mr. and
Mrs. Andrew Mccormack and Miss
Maggie Mccormack and Miss Sadie
Muir were passengers on the North
ern Pacific train that was held up
near Grand Forks, \. D., Wednesday
night, and they have some exciting
stories to tell OF the experiences. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Mccormack, they
were in sleeper No. next the OBJ
Grand Forks the train stopped for
water and the three robbers got onto
the observation car at the rear of
the train.
Mr.. Mccormack and wife were oc-
cupying berth No. IL, while Miss Nc
Cornack and Miss Muir were in
berth 10, which was next the end
that the robbers entered. Mr.. Nc
Cornack doubts the truth Of the story
that the robbers fired indiscriminate-
Iy about the train, and heard but one
shot and that was late during the
incident, after the robbers had gone
forward He says:
BERTH FIRST TACKLED.
We were in berth No. II, and
our berth was the first that the rob-
bers tackled For some reason they
passed by No 10, which was occu-
pied by Miss Mccormack and Miss
Muir. There we're two robbers at
the berth. One Of these pulled the
curtains aside and the other did the
robbing. The pulling aside Of the
curtains awakened Mrs. Mccormack
and when she saw the form of a man
who was pointing a revolver At her
head. she raised up and naturally
screamed. The robber said:
Keep still lady. we won't hurt
you. We want your money, that Is
all
Il was awakened by the noise, but
before l could 90 anything the rob
Der had repeated the demand:
We want your money
Meanwhile one of the two kept
point revolver at the head of Mrs
Mccormack
Il started TO pat my hand under
the pillow to get the money but the
robber anticipated me and swept his
arm under the two pillows and got
my watch and pocket book He took
everything had. Enchanting I
don't want your watch he threw it
back
LITTLE REMONSTRANCF
The two then went forward
through the car and it was remark
able how quietly they worked There
were no heads sticking out of the
berths 10 see what was going on and
from all ] could hear there was lit
tie remonstrance. The robbers miss

They got $50 out of my pocket book
and that left me with but the $3.50 .

they threw my tickets on the door
Of the diner and they were returned
TO me afterward. After going
through our car they went forward

The conductor told us that he
fired shot az one Of the robbers
" no was in our car and the bullet
hole was found, but We do not know
whether il took effect He fired
through the glass window of the
door.
After the robbers had gone for
ua-d there was considerable talking
throughout the car over the affair,
but no special demonstration. The
car we were in was as quiet as the
grave all the time the robbers were
going through it. All the men
seemed to want was the money and

The story about shooting the
engineer is correct The robbers

and do their work more thoroughly
but he would not do it and they
shot him. Then they got off and
escaped.
Il should say that all this happen

The conductor went through the
oar afterward and got the name ~
each person who had been robbed
and the amount II was .he under

the total amount secured by the rob-
bsrs was about $4,000. The train

MAY FOLEY, AGED is, GONE

The disappearance Of May Foley,
a I6-year-oId girl, whose home is on
Eighth street between Iowa and Le-
Claire streets IN Davenport, appar-
entity confirms the rumor which was
circulated yesterday to the effect that
a woman had jumped or been pushed
off the government bridge near the
Davenport side of the Mississippi
river Michael Foley, a railroad Ia
borer, father of the girl. has asked
the police to find his daughter II she
is alive, but both he and his wife
are ready to believe that it was she
who gave rise to the bridge mystery.
The Davenport authorities have COM
municated with numerous cities
along the river below here and ask
ed them TO be on the lookout for the
body should It float with the stream.
Thus far there have been no attempts
at dragging the river, for it is felt
that this would be a hopeless task.
DISAPPEARED AT NIGHT
About 10 or IL o'clock Thursday
night, the young girl went out of the
house in which her family lives. She
has not returned as yet. She had
neither hat nor coat on at the time
she left. AS far as could be learned
by the police she had had no trou-
BILE that would lead her to suicide
and her disappearance is a mystery
that is explained only by the happen
ings at the bridge. The girl was en-
pIoyed at print shop in Davenport
and was well thought of.

when suddenly they heard piercing
scream which was Immediately fol-
lowed by dull splash in the water.
Then all was silent. For a time they
refused TO believe their ears but af-
ter they had talked it over and found
that both had heard exactly the same
thing they concluded that murder
or suicide had taken place and
they notified the police. An officer
returned to the river with them in
rhe early morning and the bottom of
the river between the second and
third piers was dragged for a short
time but there we've no results and

A man travelling westward on a
through express one day last week
left his seat in the crowded dining
car just after he had ordered his
luncheon. He went to get something
he had forgotten in the Pullman.
When he returned, in spite of the
fact that he had left a magazine on
the chair in the diner, he found a
dressed woman in his
place. He protested with all the po-
likeness he could muster, but the
woman turned on him with flashing
eyes. Sir" she remarked haughtily,

no man cares to be kept awake until

only argument which he found effect

sorting to that argument. That was
the finding of the jury, and many
will rejoice in the verdict. Most men

creamery at this place, under a Co
operative plan, enough farmers TAX
ing stock and agreeing to furnish
cream from a certain number of COWS
The proposition was very favorably
received and we believe will later
bear fruit. To further the good cause
along and give those who have been
thinking of the question "a few more
points to consider, we give some
statements from the University Farm
Press as to what has been done
under this plan elsewhere.
