William Carlisle, Last of Spectacular
 Western Train Robbers, Never Shot Man;
 Love of the Game Motive of Bandit King

Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 29.-Tht vests most spectacular train robber William Carlisle, is on the rampage Great Salt Lake and the Missouri reinforced by 10000 railroad men, re searching for him. Within AS hours after escaping from the Wyoming state penitentiary, where he was sen, for life for train robbing, he had held up an overland Union Pacific train robbed the passengers and was away again with troop of United States cavalry and hundreds of officers searching for him,
 Carlisle is about 35 years old and so far as the authorities have beer able to discover he had not commit ted an unlawful act in his life until he suddenly made his debut as train robber, in the spring of 1916.
 Jesse James held up trains, but he always had band at his back. Bill Day and Ben Fitzpatrick and others held up trains and then ran for the Hole-in-the- Wall, but they never tri- ed it unless there were at least half dozen of them. Shacknasty Jim and Mexican Joe robbed a train once in while as it went through the Red Desert, but there were never less than five in their party.
 Always Plays Lone Hand.
 Carlisle, however, always plays a lone hand. And instead of fleeing for tall timber after the job, Car lisle has always let it be known Jus, where he would be.
 T am going to hold up the Paci- fife Limited next Friday night" he telegraphed the railroad authorities in April, 1916. And he did it.
 "Your guards had better watch me, I'm going to get out of this place." he told the guards in the Wyoming pen>,ntiary. They watched him But he got out.
 Carlisle is Robin Hood to the people of southern Wyoming and about three out of four of them want him to escape. It is believed that this feeling for him on the part of the cowboys and ranchmen is the reason he has been able to drop ou. of sight for day or two following his robberies and then to turn up in some place where the railroad peo- pie least expected to find him.
 ASsoi Hht'iu' .auy, heeP youI lHoH- ey, I'm not robbing women," Car lisle has told women passengers when they handed out their purses.
 Let Poor Man Keep $100.
 Say, Mister, I'm a poor man and I've worked mighty hard for this S1OO," a roughly dressed passenger told Carlisle, as the latter passed down the aisle of the car, taking val Iables from the passengers.
 "All right, old man, keep it; I'll get an extra hundred from this prosper cus-looking fat man." Carlisle ans wered pleasantly. And he did.
 You soldiers don't have to pay toll; keep your money" he told a bunch of soldiers in one train he was holding up. ~
 Carlisle's plan is simplicity itsels. He climbs on q train at some regu- lar stop. He waits until the porte, comes into the last car on the train. Then he shoves gun in the negro's back. Next, he stands up in the front of the car, fires a couple of shots into the ceiling, says Hands up," and then forces the negro to pass down the aisle and rob the pas sengers.
 ''The first man who makes a false move dies," he tells them. But he never has shot man in his life.
 After robbing the car, he takes the porter into the next car and goes through the same operations. He locks the door of the car as he passes out so that he cannot be followed
