Alleged Bank Robber in Jail.
(Potosi Journal }

(PotoSl journal }
Charles Harris of Doe Run is in jail
here, charged with being one of the
two men who robbed the Bank of
Caledonia of $4,000 shortly after II
O'Clock last Thursday morning. His
preliminary hearing has not been
held. Harris surrendered to Deputy
Sheriff Sam Doss of st. Francois
County Saturday, saying he had heard
that there was warrant out for him,
"but didn't know what for" Doss
notified Sheriff Casey of this county
of the arrest, who went over to Doe
Run after the prisoner and brought
him back by way of Caledonia, where
he was positively identified by Cashier
Lacy Coghill and other parties as one
of the robbers. Harris claims how
ever that it is a case of mistaken
identity, that he had nothing to do
with the job. Whether he can prove
an alibi remains to be seen.
The robbers quietly entered the
bank Thursday morning, poked their
guns at Cashier Coghill and ordered
him to "stick 'em up,V which he was
prompt in doing, They then bound
him hand and foot, tucked him in the
vault and locked the door, and clean
ing up all the cash in sight, approx
imately $4,000 in currency and coin
and made their getaway by walking
out of town as quietly as they enter
ed. They were seen on the streets by
several citizens, but no one suspected
them of having just robbed the bank
of the town. However they were
both recognized by someone who
knew them both by name. This fac
led to Harris arrest. The other man
also said to be q Doe Run resident
has not yet been located.
Cashier Coghill soon managed tt
free himself from his bonds and with
the aid of screw driver and laml
kept in the vault, managed to looser
the vault lock and throw back tht
bolts, but although this took only tel
or fifteen minutes, by the time ht
was out of the vault the robbers haC
disappeared. His alarm threw the
community into tremendous fer
ment. Potosi was communicated
with and Sheriff Casey at once Or
ganized an armed posse and went il
pursuit of the bandits, but withou
results.
| The bank will lose nothing, as tn
robbery of its cash is covered by in
surance.

tied this year to 81 900. Certainly the
old stagers who have come down to
us from the check book orgies of the
days of Mckinley and Roosevelt, the
men who subscribed and spent the
money in sums of $4,000 and $100, 900,
are not going to believe that the high
cost of electing Presidents has reduc-
ed so suddenly.
The fact is that for several m onths
past Chairman Hays has been quietly
filling in his war chest, and the meas
ure of his success is to be judged by
the announcement now made that
passing the hat for small donations
will be depended upon hereafter to
meet all necessary expenses. With
everything underwritten earlier than
ever before by the big interests, upon
whom the gospel of preparedness has
been urged with telling effect, the
free-will offerings of the small fry are
expected to produce at least an ap'
pearance of thrift and devotion that
will disarm criticism.

Land Sale in Madison County.
ST. Louis, Mo-, August 13.

(Fredericktown Democrat-News.)
The largest land deal in the recent
history of Madison county was per-
fected during the past two weeks, in
which approximately $4,000 acres OF
land changed hands. The land is that
known locally for many years as the
Lead Belt land and is scattered in al
most every section of the county.
The transfer was made by the Mu'
tual Agricultural and Mining 90. with
headquarters at Memphis, Tenn, to q
Mr.. Staten of Illinois and Mr.. Church
of Memphis. The first named firm
took over the land two years ago from
the Lead Belt Land Co., Missouri
concern. the president, MIR. Riggs,
living at Cameron. The Lead Belt
company had for several years previ-
GUS been in financial straits and fore
closures were constantly threatened.
Practically all the land is rough,
though several tracts have the max
ing of good farms. There is fair tim
ber on some of the more remote sec
tions. 1t was all originally sold for
taxes and was accumulated.in that
way. :,
The rumor is the new owners paid
approximately 100000 for the 2S,oO(
acres. They were here two weeks
ago and are expected back within 9
few days. Their plan is to sell the
timber and the land and probably at
tempt colonization project on some
of it. It is said they recently sue
cessfully disposed of large acreage
of similar land in Wayne county.
George W. Albright has been local
agent for the land for year or more
and it is said he will receive five pei
cent of the purchase price as com
mission.
