MEETS BANDITS
H. w. Allen, Formerly of This City is
Held Up by Bandits in Kansas
City, But is Not In
iured.

Friends here of Herbert w. Allen
of Kansas City, who learned yesterday
of his encounter with bandits at Kan
sas City Saturday will be glad to
know that he is safe.
A telegram was received here py
his brother-in-law, J. J. Ayres Satur-
day night stating that he had been
held I'D but was not hurt. The rob-
bers caught the payrole of $3,163 but
it was recovered, the telegram stated.
According to the Chicago Tribune
Mr. Allen was held up by three rob-
,bers who took possession of the pay
roll which he was carrying and made
their getaway but were finally caught.
The story is of local interest due to
the fact that Mr.. Allen was formerly
resident of this city, and that Mrs.
7 T. Ayres Of Keokuk is his sister.
The Chicago Tribune story reads:
Three bandits today choked and rob-
he'd Herbert w. Allen, cashier of a
wholesale millinery house here. in
Front IF a downtown hotel, seized a
nov roll of SO, 1863, and fled in motor
car They were pursued more than
mile nv a motorcycle policeman. The
bandits automobile was wrecked and
two of the three men were captured.
The nav roll. dropped by the bandits
when their car was wrecked was
Dicked up intact. -@

rated from her husband, making her

made the trip to the scene of the
shooting with the county officers, the
| four occupants Of the auto told the
story of the shooting.

calling her a vile name shot her.
After shes fell he went after Ket-
zell and said, It'll get you too" His
gun failed to work. Ketzell picked
up board and the assailant ran out
of the driveway into the road
While Mrs. Humphrey was UP town
she told the Reeder girls that she
saw Humphrey on Hampshire street.
It was only a short time before they
left for home. It is not known how
he got there in time to be waiting for
them.

there at the home about 10 o'clock
and changed his shoes. He said then
