BOY BANDIT

SWEETHEART OF FRANK DUPRE
SCREAMS IN TERROR AS Low
ER GOES TO HIS DEATH.

Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 5-Frank Du-
pre-, boy bandit, who after several
jewelry store robberies, one murder,
and the wounding of several others,
fled to Detroit and was captured,
brought back and convicted, was
hanged here Friday afternoon.
Dupre's body shot through the
trap at 2:05 and he was pronounced
dead a few minutes later.
The condemned youth maintained
his bravery to the end. He said
nothing after the death warrant was
read to him. The black cap was ad-
justed and the trap Immediately
sprung.
Screams of terror from Mrs. Cora
Lou Vinson, now under sentence of
death for the murder of her bus
band, and of Betty Andrews, sweet
heart of the condemned youth, rang
through the corridors just before the
boy was led to his doom. The two
women, brought into contact after
Miss Andrews had visited Dunrc 3
cell. refused to be consoled and
screamed piercingly time after time.
Scenes that were dramatic ami
solemn in the extreme preceded the
execution of the slight boy who last
December shot down Toby Walker,
as the latter was attempting to pro-
test jewelry store from being rob-
bed
Almost hysterical and with tears
streaming down his face. the boys
father bade him an affectionate
farewell an hour and a half before

SHOPME|V To
KEEP UP FIGHT
INJUNCTION Is A SEVERE BLOW,
SAY LEADERS.

Sioux City, Ia, ept. 5--'The fight
will go on the same as ever" stated
Louis Hammer, chairman of the
striking shopmen's publicity COM
mittee, in commenting on the fed
eral injunction issued to the United
States government
the injunction is a severe blow
''but we were already enjoined prac-
tically everywhere. The injunction
means, however, that no picketing
will be allowed
So far no orders have been re-
ceived by local strikers to remove
pickets from the borders of the
railroad property.
1t may become necessary for the
national organization of the strik ers
!. to remove all funds from the United
States. 1t was pointed out by Mr..
Hammer that the organization could
readily do this, as it is international
in character and in charter.
Removing the funds from the
United States would preclude the en-
forcement of fines on the organiza-
tion as the government would be
powerless to touch the funds In Can
ada or Mexico. Heads of the strik-
ers could change their headquarters
to Canada or Mexico and direct the
strike from there, if necessary.
THE strike is still 100 per cent
offnnfiy-O fo4 E~a
perienced men picked up b. the rail-
roads are themselves striking for
better wages and many o. them are
joining our ranks"
Commenting on Samuel Gompers'
threat to call general strike, Kam-
mer admitted that such step might
be taken as a final resort. 1--WE don't
want to do ii, of course" he said; !;
this has been a peaceful strike and
we intend to win 1t by peaceful
means, if possible
That railroad wrecks over the
country were being caused by strik-
ers, was vehemently denied by Kan.
mer. 1T is untrue" he stated "A
lot of failures from defective en-
gines and other equipment are nev-
er reported to the public, though
you will notice."
Striking shopmen crowded the
halls of the Labor temple this morn
ing discussing the federal injunc-
ton. General opinion is that the in
junction will not prevent the strike
from continuing in its full effective
ness.
