STACK ENJOYED
MOTOR JOURNEY

Mr.. and Mrs. B. T. Stack have
just returned from trip to California,
having made the greater part OF The

journey by train and steamer when
they found motoring monotonous.
They had, taking it all in all, very
delightful trip. Starting in their car
they went to Great Falls, Helena,
Butte, Missoula, Kalispell. Libby,
Sand Point Spokane, Walla Walla,
Pendleton and the Dalles with en-
Joyable visits at each place. AT the
Dalles they took the steamer to Port
land, shipping their car. From Port
land they went direct to San Francis
co, and after enjoying the exposition,
motored on down to Los Angeles and
San Diego and then back to San
Francisco where they took the steam
er to Portland. At San Diego they
met so many old residents of Fergus

especially enjoyable.

MRS. WHITING
LEWiSToWN WOMAN TELLS OF
OCCURRENCES WHEN ROBBERS
BOARDED TRAIN.
CACHED HER MONEY AND JEWELS

The holdup which occurred on the
Olymplan Just outside of Minneapolis
last Sunday evening. has caused no
little interest at the time it was com
mltted and since. An interesting let
ter from Mrs. G. l.. Whiting, who hap.
pened to be one OF the passengers in
the observation car which the masked
robbers ransacked. gives a detailed ac-
count OF Just how it all happened She
herself had the presence of mind to
throw her bills and rings under the
radiator. while the men were in the
smoking compartment and there they
remained intact 1t was good move,
too. because although the women went
unmolested, their hands were search
ed for diamonds.
In her letter she tells how a stranger
carrying red lantern. entered the OBJ
scrvatiOn car as the train left Glencoe.
AS he passed the conductor. who was
counting tickets, the latter suddenly
looked up with the question: "Who
was that?" He and the brakeman en-
deavOred to seize and hold the bandit,
but without result. The man shot
twice and ordered all hands up, and
meanwhile another man clambered
over the railing Of the platform and
into the car. He shot out one window
and fired close to two or three men,
creating a reign OF terror throughout
the car. The first man then marched
the conductor to the front of the OBJ
servatiOn, but someone in the Pullman
shut and locked the communicating
door. With a shot or two the robber
then ordered the conductor to pass
the hat while lie himself kept up
running fire Of conversation with his
victims. 1t was his order that the
women should not be allowed to con
tribute. There We're several hunters
aboard the train. who had their guns,
of course. and when they prepared to
battle with the bandits in the rear car,
the two took to their heels. with shots
raining after them. They made a get
away. carrying with them $23775
Mrs. Whiting herself was interview
ed bv one of the st. Paul papers when
she arrived in that city, and it is evi-
dent from her observation Of details
that she had her wits about her from
first to last Following is the version
she gave:
"One bandit swung over the railing
of the observation car at Glencoe"
said one Of the victims, woman from
Montana. at the Frederick hotei last
night. He wore a raincoat and slouch
hat and had a lantern
Passing through the car, he met
the conductor and brakeman and
scuffle ensued. Then the brakeman
came running back to warn us.
"a shot followed and soon the men
in the smoking compartment came
in with the bandit behind
This time there was dirty handker-
chief over his face. Up went our
hands and the conductor started
around with the hat
ITO man he said: You're watching
too close; you might know me next
time And IL shot whizzed over his
head
warning Us not to move until we
reached Humboldt avenue in Mime
apOlis, he stepped out through the
front door. In a moment he was back
again. How about the diamonds?' he
asked. UP with your hands,. But
they were under the radiator"
