We're shot in a freight car near Elk
Point by three robbers, who opened
fire when one harvest hand in a party
of 30 made objections to being "frisked"
by the bandits.
The wounded men were rushed to the
Yankton hospital and Brown died
shortly after arriving here. Griffith is
shot through the back and lungs and
is said to have very slight chances for
recovery. Posses are in pursuit of the
bandits who left the train at Meckling
and are supposed to be hiding in the
cornfields near that city
According to the story told by the
holdup victims about 30 harvest hands
were riding the midnight freight from
Sioux City. A short distance out of
flashlight and three armed men, and
given orders to .'line up" ALL sub
mitted tamely until Griffith was
reached and he put up q fight. He
was getting the upper hand of the rob-
Der who was doing the "frisking" when
the one stationed at the door opened
fire.
The first shot struck young Brown,
who was lined up with his hands in
the air, and the victim dropped in a
dying condition. Griffith was then
shot twice and he dropped to the floor
of the car.
The bandits then completed the rob-
berry of the harvest hands. including
the two who had been wounded. They
jumped from the train at Meckling and
disappeared in cornfield.
Members of the train crew were
aroused by the shots and made an in
vestigation. They rushed the two
wounded men to the hospital here. but
Brown lived only couple Of hours.

this locality this year occurred here
when three men carrying guns of
heavy caliber, Lid up and robbed
about 60 harvest hands of nearly S15O
in broad daylight. The deputy sheriff
was out OF the city, and hurry call
to Aberdeen brought force Of four
policemen, headed by Chief G. W.
Hurst. who has done SO much IN ar
resting gunner there this year.
The victims Of the robbery turned in
and assisted Chief Hurst in searching
n corn field into which the three men
had taken refuge. Two of the men.
William De Wore. of San Francisco.
and Harry Clifford. of Yorkshire. Eng
land. were arrested The third man
broke away.
The two men had buried their guns
and plunder in the corn field. but De
Wore was heard to tell another pris-
oner in the jail where SGT and his guns
were to be found, and search is being
made for them.

the same ones who robbed harvest

them, Z. F. Campbell, who is in n
serious condition ut the hospital at

Tinker in Bad Again

Early thls week Sheriff J. C.. Lane returned from Paris. Ill.,. having in charge John c. Tinker. who was wanted here for issuing bad checks. Tinker had been employed on a local paper known as the Mineral Wealth and got into the good graces of some of the people to such an extent that when he got under the Influence of liquor and issued bad checks the matter would be hushed up Having quit hls employment he at once went around town and cashed a number of checks on local business men and then made his getaway. He was located in Paris. H.. where his wife had preceded hlm.
 It was known when Tinker came to Kingman that he was out on probation for a like offense at Holbrook. He was bound over to the Superior Court at a hearing this week.
 Tinker is one of those unfor- tunates who cannot let booze alone and will do anything to ob- tain it. He is an excellent print CT and when sober is a good fellow, but booze apparently has him grabbed. "-Mohave Coun- tv Miner.
 Tinker was at one time em- ployed by the Holbrook News Publishing Go. After leaving this company he remained in Holbrook for a few months and was arrested for forgery. He was given. a years suspended sentence last January by Judge Sapp and left town, going from here to Kingman. Judging from the above article, his old habits still have him and he will pro- bably make his next trip to the penitentiary at Florence.

Bndee Builders ot Work

The work of getting the forms in place for the concrete abut- ments to the new government bridge across the Colorado river is well under way and it will be but short time until concrete pouring will be commenced. On the California side of the river the work of cutting the new road to the bridge site through the hard volcanic rock is progressing slowly. It is said that the rock is so hard and brittle that the shots put m do little work. The work IS certain to be expensive, but the results will be all that the people can expect. On the Ari- zona side there will be a short fill, but this will entail only a small expenditure.
 When this bridge is in, auto mobiles may run through from Klngman or other points east oyer the bridge to Needles with out loss of time or expense, as the bridge is to be free to all kinds of travel. It will be the only bridge across the Colorado rlver between Green River and Yuma, and has long been recog- nized as a public necessity. = Mohave County Miner,

Epworth League.

The Epworth League, under the
leadership of Miss Catherine Dahnke
has become one of the most enjoyable
and profitable services of the Metho-
dist Church Many of the older peo-
pie are going and being benefited by
listening to the special music, read
| ing and talks of the boys and girls.
Sunday night they accepted the in
vitation of Brother Armstrong to
meet in the main auditorium and fill
the regular preaching hour, which
service was much appreciated by a
large audience. The subject, "The
Prophets Call to the Young" taken
from Joel, was led by the President
who, after making few appropriate
remarks on the scripture, spoke of
youth as time for training and of
the things youth could do in the
Kings service. Miss Juno Reynolds
gave splendid reading, 1.-THE Value
of a Smile" followed by solo by
Miss Kate Robinson. Miss Dahnke
then spoke of how the young had an
influence, often winning even older
ones to the Lord, which thought was
illustrated by beautiful story read
by Mrs. Henry Little. Miss Dahnke
then spoke of how God did not ex-
clude people from working and testi-
flying at all times, and then we
listened to a heart-searching ques
ton in beautiful poem, Are You
Shining for Jesus?" read by Miss
Mary Lee Rodgers. We had the
pleasure of having with us Miss
Burch, of Kenton, who SO beautifully
rendered a touching reading from
Lies Miserables' Brother Arm
strong then made a few remarks |
after which the service closed with |
the league benediction to meet again |

one of our members, Mr.. Young, first |
