s.15 o'clock tonight shot and killed
Ollie Dudgen, 80 years old, when he
attempted TO prevent their robbing

Within two blocks Of the police ste

After the shooting the men rob
bed rs or 30 men, who were stand
ing lin the barroom and then calmly
backed out, The robbery occupied
probably balf an hour. and during
this time Budgen was lying behind
his bar dead.
Backed Men Into Place.
According to seme of the men.
who were In the saloon at the time,
the highwaymen entered the front
door as two men were going out. Not
wishing to overlook anyone. the
robbers compelled the pair to back
into the room With their hands over
their head. \ M si
Il After Backing the men into the
saloon. the robbers ordered everyone
to elevate Everyone obeyed ex-
cepting Dudgen. He dived back Of
the bar and reached for an auto
matte revolver. He obtained the re-
volyer and started to raise up, when
one of the robbers fred The bullet

killing him instantly.
Didn't Mind Killing.
After the shooting, the highway
men, apparently not worried about
the matter, went through the pockets
Of the men. They obtained $50 or
$50, In this way and then one of
them walked behind the bar, and
after stepping over the body of Dud-
gen, robbed the cash register and
safe. More than $500 was taken
from the safe and from the patrons
Of the place.
Paducah has been infested with
robbers all winter, More than 100
crimes have been committed and not
one has been cleared up.
The citizens are excited over the
elimination of the affair and are de-
manding that something be done.
The town Is terrorized and women
and children are afraid to stay at
! home alone at night.
Women Are Robbed.
Several Of the robbe-ies have been
of the most outrageous kind. Women
have had their rooms entered and
the robbers would awaken them and
compel them to show where they had
placed their iewelry. Men have
been awakened and forced to show
the robbers where they keep their
: money.
The robbers have worked with Inn
punity. despite the fact that the po-
lice force is large enough to cover
the town In good shape. There are
eleven bloodhounds here and they
haven't even caught rabbit.
Palice Arc Slow.
| The police had not really started
| work on the catching of the mur-
(, derers at II o'clock. Everybody was
standing about talking about how IT
happened and trying to figure " out.
tAs matter OF fact, though. the po-
lice have very little to go on, Every
man In the place has different de-
seription OF the men. Some say they
we're clean shayen. others say both
had whiskers, while there Is y vide
