Los ANGELES, CAL, Dec. 20.
Dick Ferris introduced aviation
10 America. He staged the first
aero meet In tho United States
and brought Paulhan, the cele-
brated French aviator, to this
country to fly. And Dick also
financed a revolution In Lower
California. He was going to set
UP n republic and appoint himself
Kink, but Uncle Sam stepped in.
After Dick eXtricated himself
from the tolls of the federal gov
eminent he decided that "revolut-
ing" WAS too strenuous an exer-
else even for n red-headed gent.
Dick next took up politics. He
ran for Lieutenant governor of
California and got beat.
Now Dick is involved in a do
n1estic tangle. The courts will
soon be combing the snarls out of
a divorce case that involves Fer
ris and his wife, Florence Stone,
actress, in the principal roles, and
Willard Mack, actor, and his wife,
Marjorie Rambeau, actress, anu
Miss Evelyn Desmond. There are
letters and kilograms in abund-
ance.

Limon. Colo.-The desperate who
early Sunday morning robbed Brake

insensibility while the train was on
siding at River Bend, six miles west
of here. and few minutes later shot
and killed Conductor Samuel f..
Marts when he gave chase across the
fields, is still at liberty.
While the train. which left Limon
at 1920, was on the siding, Brakeman
Reed went along the cars looking for
hot boxes. About the middle he dis
covered man riding the rods. He
called to him to come out. The man
complied and pulled revolver on
Reed when he arose from under the
car. The men grappled and during
the fight for possession Of the weapon
Reed was stunned. The tramp robbed
him of watch. his pocketbook and
his Rock Island pay check, and ran
across the fields toward the south.
Reed staggered to the caboose and
reported his encounter to Conductor
Marts, who started In pursuit Of the
holdup, with Reed following. They
crossed an open field and Marts saw
the man hiding behind tree. He COM
manded him to give himself up. The
desperate responded by opening fire.
shooting three times and killing Marts.
Others of the train crew knew nothing
of what was going on, as Reed and
Marts were in charge of the rear end
of the train alone. Engineer Chris
Kunn of Denver started to pull the
train out of the siding. when Matt Dali
ley. forward brakeman, reported that
something was the matter at the rear
of the train. They stopped, and Reed
informed them what had happened.
They discovered Marts' body and
made futile search for the desper-
ado.
The engine was unlocked and
Marts' body taken to Limon Marts
