MOOrhead, Minn., Sept. ia re-
ward of 5000 has been Offered for the
capture of two bandits who early this
morning shot and killed George Shef-
field, telegraph operator at the
Great Northern station here, and es-
capped with the contents of the cash
box, amounting to $l5. Up to late
hour today the men had not been ap-
pretended, although posses were
securing the vicinity Immediately aft
er the shooting. A large sum of
money in safe was overlooked by
the robbers.
Gun Wasn't Loaded.
Sheffield, who was shot down when
he attempted to resist, drew a revol-
yer and fired at the bandits when
commanded to throw up his hands.
The gun, however, was empty, some
one having borrowed it a few days
ago to shoot a horse" The robbers,
after firing four shots, three of which
missed, shot Sheffield through the
lungs.
Passengers Held Up.
The other man held up the baggage
man and two passengers in the wait
ing room, taking all their change. A
coroner's investigation will be held
this afternoon, and the police of Moor
head and Fargo are uniting on the
search for the robbers.
One clue worked on today was that
the two men crossed the river to Far
go Immediately after the shooting and
applied for rooms at a lodging house
on Front street They were turned
away because the hotel was full. A
good description of the men was OBJ
tanned from the landlady, however,
and with this the police hope to have
the two men under arrest before night.

between the freshmen track team and
non-varsity men, and finally a big in
tercollegiate track meet which Will
exclude all varsity track candidates

say that 200 or more men will come
out for the various events

the largest OF any state department
This means that during the last two
years more than 100000 persons paid
the license fee Of 81, or approximately
100000 a year.
Philadelphians who 90 in for the
sport during the open seasons predict
that the number to apply for licenses
this year will exceed the $500 mark.
The plan talked of in the legisla-
ture to tax fishermen 81 a year for
the purpose of defraying expenses of
the departments of fisheries, forestry
and game did not meet with the same
interest as the game commissioners
report, as most Philadelphia anglers go
an for fishing off the New Jersey re-
sorts
Sportsmen who conferred with mem
bers of the board of game commission
ers in Harrisburg concerning the sug-
gestion said such a law would help
preserve fish. but would result in
poaching. Small boys, they pointed
out. would be unable to pay the fee.
and. therefore, would keep wardens on
the jump at all times. Philadelphians
however. strongly approved the new
game code.
