Kaiser Bill Bars Salvation Army Out
of Hunland.

New York, July 1.-The Saliva
ton Army iii Germany and Austria
has been wiped out of existence by
order OF the Kaiser, not only because
the organization was founded i'll Eng
land and was developed in that coun
try, but because Salvationists from
ali over the earth are in the trenches.
fighting under the various flags of
the Allies. This news was received
today by the Salvation Amy here.
All oi the orphanagcs, rescue
homes, lodging houses, hospitals and
corps headquarters belonging to the
organization had long since been
confiscated and the Salvation Army
as such has been put ont OF existence,
so lar as the Central Powers are con-
cerned. Its members are scattered in
many directions, and all cooperation
among them stopped. They have not
been permitted to communicate with
their London headquarters since the
war started.
y work OF mercy which was begun
about so years ago is thereby wiped
out by the Kaiser.
There are over 100000 Salvationists
now in the trenches and bearing arms
for the Allies.

Dale Jones May be a Train
Robber.

Suspecting that the occupants OF a
house at 37I5 Wyandotte street
Kansas City, were the men who last
week robbed NJ. K & I. train a
short distance west OF that city, the
police raided the house and after a
revolver duel. succeeded i'll capturing
three women and little girl. The
men. who were supposed to be Frank
Lewis and Dale Jones, two police
characters, made their escape. The
police claim that they found some OF
the loot from the NJ. X. & T. rob
berry in the house.
Several years ago Jones was ar.
rested at Hume. charged with rob-
bing cars on the Kansas City S"rth-
ern railroad While the train ",
which he was being brought to But
Ter by Constable Mcqueen wa, i'll
Rich Hill, pal OF Jones named
John Shead, boarded the train and
after shooting Mcqueen, made his
escape with Jones. Shead was after
wards captured and sent to the penl-
Tertiary for the killing of Mcqueen.
Jones was captured in California and
brought back to Bates county by
Sheriff Johnson, but he afterwards
escaped from the jail by digging
through the brick wall.
The Kansas City papers intimate
that Jones has been seen around
there. several times recently, but al
ways just as the police were going to
arrest him he managed to make his
escape Jones. by much Dragging and
telling what an awful bad man he is.
and how he just dearly loves to kill
policeman, has gained reputation
of being very bad man indeed. He
has even got himself suspected OF
killing a Kansas City policeman.
This reputation. which has probably
been fostered by the Kansas City
police, has been of good service to
him as the police seem to dislike to
crowd him too close.
