He Would Rob Medora Bank


He Would Rob Medora Bank
Geo. H. Wheatley aged 81, a Dickin-
son brakeman, donned black mask,
borrowed a Buick car from w. H.
Brown of Dickinson drove to Sully
Springs near Medora, N. D., where
he held up Hans Elkins, of Medora,
and after backing him into the bushes
tied his hands, driving Elkins' Ford to
Medora. He entered the bank, carry
ing two guns in his pockets but his
nerve failed him when he confronted
the pretty young woman cashier. In
stead of robhng the bank he fumbled
around in his pockets f0r some money
saying he wanted to buy a draft for
$22.50, but he had lost his pocket
book. J, He left the bank, got into
the Ford and drove away, meeting Ell
kins who had united his own hands
in the bushes. He drove to the place
where he secreted the Brown car and
started for Dickinson where he was
met on the road by officials and ar
rested. He confessed and was given
an indeterminate sentence of from two
to five years. Wheatley was married
ayyear ago. He claims that he was
hard UP, having lost heavily at cards.

CHINA WELCOMES
CAR FROM U. s.
Popularity of Detroit Car Helps In
crease Confidence In An
American Goods

A constantly increasing regard for
American products in China is IN
dicated in a recent report from E. G.
Willems, travelling representative to
Dodge Brothers, Detroit motor car
manufacturers. The popularity of the
Detroit car or rather the characters
tic manner in which it continues to
prove it's right to popularity, is hav-
ing a highly favorable influence on
American trade in general.
every Dodge Brothers car that
comes into China increases public con-
fdence in the trademark Made in
America according to Mr.. Willems,
who left Detroit nearly year ago
on tour of the far east. "1ts rec
ord of performance is so good. that
the Chinese are beginning to feel that
anything made in the U. S. A. must
have merit. American manufacturers
should strive conscieptiously to JUS
tify this confidence by exporting only
first class goods"
The reports show that Dodge Bro
theirs car has gained official recog-
milton at the hands of the government
on more than one occasion. In fact
the government is one of the best
buyers, having found that car entirely
suitable for hard usage in various
departmental capacities. Among the
Dodge Brothers cars sold by Emile
Bainier, the dealer in Saigon, alone
are from one to six to each of the
following:
Public transports Of Cochin China
Postal service in Indo China;
Provincial governments of Sadec,
Thudaumot, Taynih, Gocong and Co.
chin China;
Resident superior of AMMAN;
Resident superior of Laos;
Resident of Savannahket;
Resident of Takhek;
Resident of Keng, Kalbao;
Resident of Dalai.
Delivery of an additional four cars
for the Indo- China government was
being awaited At the time Mr.. Will
lem's report was mailed.
