ROB KATY FLIER'

UncOuple Express and Mail Cars
Dynamite Safes and Escape
In Skiffs
TRAILS DESPERADOES
TO BANKS OF RIVER
Loot Garnered In Desperate Ex-
plot Will Not Exceed $1,000,
Is Statement

ST. LOUIS, July 10.-Posses today
were searching for the four masked
highwaymen who last night boarded
the Katy fiier, Texas-bound, when ii
stopped for water at Matson, Mo-, un'
coupled the express and mail cars,
dynamited the American Express Co
safe, and escaped with loot, value un-
known AS the holdup occurred near
the bank of the Missouri river and
the bandits are known to have rowed
away in skiffs, bloodhounds, rushed
to the scene, have been unable to do
effective work
While the fier had been known to
carry large sums Of money, n. T.
Brown, general agent of the Ameri'
can Express Co.. said early today that
there was no shipment of money in
the car, but that the safe contained
several packages of jewelry, the value
of which he did not think would ex-
ceed $1,000.
When the flier stopped for water at
Matson four bandits boarded the
blind baggage" and about three
miles out climbed over the tender and
ordered Engineer John Schnabley to
stop the train.
A few shots emphasized their com
mand TO curious passengers TO 'go
back to bed" Baggage, express and
mail men were quickly covered, the
two cars cut off and the engineer
forced to pull further west until they
reached an abandoned section. There
the engineer, fireman, baggageman,
expressman and mail clerk were lined
up along the bluff, guarded by two
highwaymen, while the other two
blew the safe. A track walker stumb-
led into the group and was added to
the line Of prisoners.
Following a muffled explosion two
of the bandits dropped from the ex
press car with pockets bullying and
ioined their comrades on guard. With
warning TO the waiting line" not to
start trouble, the four dashed into
the darkness toward the river
The surprised crew re-coupled their
train and returned to Matson to give
the alarm and a posse was quickly
organized by the sheriff at st
Charles.

CHEANEY PLANT
BRANCHING OUT

Growing rapidly in capacity and
point Of efficiency is the Cheaney Man
ufacturing company, 3121a Kansas ave-
nue., that some moneys ago started in
the manufacture of canvas gloves.
Their first orders were filled by the
efforts OF one operator and one ma
chine. Since that time the plant has
developed and the demand has increas-
ed until the constant work of four and
five operators have been required TO
keep up with the orders.
Besides supplying the local trade,
regular customers have been establish
ed over the state and in those adjoin
ing and a lively wholesale trade has
been piled.
The plant has now expanded and is
adding another line That of womens
ana childrens garments. However, at
this time, the management will not at
tempt the general manufacture of silks
and satins, nor tailored suits, but for
the time being will devote their time e
the less expensive garments. This de-
partment OF the plant will in the be
ginning be custom garment shop and
will, in addition to filling orders for
the retail stores, cater to the individ-
hal trade.
Other machines are being added to
the plant and its efficiency increased

THE SCHOOL HOUSE AT THE STATE sANAToRIUM.

to earn a living for themselves and
their families. And they get well not
by taking medicine-there's very little
medicine given at Mount Vernon--but
by consuming large quantities of fresh
air and wholesome food, by resting
a lot and living out-of-doors. All ma
ture's medicines you see, wisely ad-
ministered by doctors who have made
study Of tuberculosis, or consump-
ton.
The first thing that surprises the
visitor to the life-saVing station at
Mount Vernon is the cheerfulness of
the place. Instead OF a gloomy atmos
phere, which so often exists around
a hospital, there is a general air OF
hope. Almost everybody you see,
doctors, patients and nurses, seem to
be smiling. Even the folks who are
sick enough so that they have to be in
bed are cheerful and smiling and ex-
pecting to get well. And the very
large majority OF them do, too.
The sanatorium, OF course. is for
the benefit of people in the early
stages of tuberculosis. IF the disease
Is taken early enough, 1t can almost
always be checked. Not always, Of
course; there are some unfortunate
cases, and there is no cure-all for con-
sumption. Any doctor who tells you
there is, Is lying. and any patent
medicine which guarantees cure for
consumption is quack remedy and
usually of no benefit at all. But doc
tors have learned that the great white
plague which twenty years ago was
! almost always fatal can very often
be checked, and its victims restored
to health, so that they are able to lead
active, normal lives. There Is at
least one country editor In Missouri
today who is we'll and earning a liv-
ing for his family because he went TO
the state sanatorium at Mount Yer
non in time. His friends didn't be
lieve he'd ever get well. But the
editor had courage and faith, and the
sanatorium justified it.
The method of getting into the sana
torium is this. The sanatorium people
have appointed doctors all over the
state who are qualified to examine

Better Light Service.

A. B. Cortright, manager of

forms US that he certainly ex-
poets to have an all.day current
next summer, beginning with

numerous other things, is one to

State Sanatorium at Mount

Stricken by tuberculosis.
SUCCESSFUL BATTLE WAGED
II Costs the Poor Man Nothing and
Scores of Men and Women are
Restored to Health and
Usefulness.

On sunny hilltop in the Ozarks
within rifle shot of the town of
Mount Vernon in Lawrence county,
the state Of Missouri runs life-saving
station. BY means of this life-saving
station many people get well every
year who otherwise would die Of con-
sumption. The life-saving station is
called the Missouri State Sanatorium
for lncipient tuberculosis, and the
state maintains it 50 that those suffer-
ers from the great white plague"
who have not the money to go to
private sanatoriums may have just
as good chance to get we'll as folks
with money have.
And they do get well at Mount Yer
non, too. More than 60 out Of every
hundred people who come to the big,
cheerful, well-kept institution go away
