MEN LEAVE WALES:
 GIRLS PLAN PURSUIT

ABERTILLERY, Wales, Aug, ', |R)-The man problem has become acute in many communities in this South Wales mining district. The youth of the country apparently prefer to make their fortunes in America or the Dominions, with the result that hundreds of girls are stranded.
 Abertillery has been particularly hard hit and the number of maids so far exceeds that of the bache- lors that the girls themselves are contemplating emigration to places where positions and men are more plentiful. Tn addition to the large number of unmarried girls there are 500 widows in Abertillery, the majority under 30.

 The federal government is expending millions of the peoples money in Alaska.

decided to postpone the robbery
until Wednesday morning because
there were quite number of peo-
pie in the village. Leaving Metre
Grove they drove to Belgrade
where they attended the street fair
and spent the night. They arrived
, on the outskirts of Metre Grove
about TOO o'clock Wednesday NOR
ming, hanging around until the
bank opened up for business.
Deputy Sheriff Steege says that
neither Humbert or Hendricks is
particularly "hard". The former
is about 2s year old, 5 feet II inch

dressed in a light suit of clothes.
Hendricks is about five foot ten,

After leaving Metre Grove their
purpose was to drive on No. to
about Olivia, then south to about
Fairfax and return to Minneapolis

When they were arrested the
money had been divided and every
cent stolen Wednesday morning
was recovered.
Sheriff Schooner has caused a
heavy guard to be thrown about

! going to take any chance on these
slippery birds getting another
break for liberty.
When they reached Minneapolis
after their escape early Saturday
morning they went to the home of
| a friend who could not give them
sapY financial assistance. Hendricks
tkEn went to his room where he
had his two guns parked.
: Wednesday evenings papers car
ried stories of the pitched battle
waged before the men were cap
tured. AS matter of fact only
FIVE shots were fired, and these by
farmers.
Sheriff Schooner and his efficient
deputies are to be congratulated
upon the speedy roundup of he
bandits.
It is understood that the prison
ers are ready to go before the Dis
trict Court, to enter pleas of guilty
and take their medicine. AS both
have several prison sentences back
of them their sentence under Min
nesota's Baumes law will put them
out of the way for a long, long
time.
After careful survey the Herald
believes the above story of the rob-
berry and arrest of the bandits is
the most accurate published up to
the present time.
