BIKE RIDERS ROB A BANK. Kill the Cashier and a Traveling Saies- man. Fairmont, Minn., Oct. masked and bicycle-mounted rob- bers awept into the little town of Sherburne, fourteen miles from here, to day, dashed into the Bank of Sherburne, murdered the cashier, a by-stander, and securing $1,000 from the eash tray, wheels and escaped before the eyes of the etartled villagers. The affair was conducted witb all the bravado of the border drama, 7.—Two and the killing of the two men, one) of whom died instantly, was purely wanton, 28 neither made any resist ance. The persons killed were: J. A. Oerstern, traveling agent of the Walter A Wood Harvester compa ny, shot through the heart. Cashier | Thorburn of the Bank of Sherburne shot in the head. The crime is par- alleled only by the raid of Jesse James and the Younger boys, when they swooped down upon the little town of Northfield, north of the scene of to day’s crime, shot the cashier the bauk of Northfield down and decamped with a large amount of money. In that instance the robbers departed on horses, whereas to-day the criminale, in keeping with the times, used bicy- cles in escaping from the enraged citizens of Sherburne. At about 1:30 o'clock two masked men walked through the front en trance of the bank to the cashier's box and, without a word, whipped out their revolvers and leveled them at Cashier Thorburn. The latter did not move, but the next minute the report of two revolvers rang out and Cashier Thorburn fel! at hie desk. At another desk in the bank stood Oerstern, a traveling man. He was the only immediate bar to the ends to which the robbers sought to gain and as Thorburn fell to the floor they turned and shot him dead. As quickly as possible they leap ed over the railing and secured $1,000 in cash. They then ran for the back door of the bank, where they had taken the precaution to leave their wheels, mounted them and rode away. It all happened inside of two minutes, and the only a few mntles of witness to the deed was a woman |the interest of the so-called middle- lar, who stood across the street from the front entrance of the bank, who was attracted by the report of the revolvers. She gave the alarm and in five minutes after the deed had beer committed the little town of Sherburne was in a state of excite- ment such as has never before keen seen there. Oestern was found dead, but Thorburn lived two houre. The town contains about 300 inhabitants, but inside of ten minutes several posses had been formed, and a search at once instituted. Every town and village where there is the slightest possibility of the robbers visiting, in their eflorts to escape, has been warned, and their capture is expected at any moment. The Ideal Panacea. James L Francis, Alderman, Chi- cago, says: “I regard Dr. King’s New Discovery as an ideal panacea for coughs, colds and lung com- plaints, having used it in my family for the last five years, to the exclu- sion of physician's prescriptions or other preparations.” Rev John Burgus, Keokuk, Iowa, writes: “Ihave been a minister of the«<M E church for 50 years or more,and have never found anything so beneficial, or that gaye me such speedy relief as Dr. King’s New Dis- covery.” Trial bottles free at H L Tucker's drug store. 16 4¢ Killed Ris Wite.

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 6.—The popu- list state central committee of Ne- braska has issued a card denouncing Paul Vandervcort of Omaha, who is traveling through the country in of the-roud movement. As Vander- voort has been spending a great of his time in Kansas lately, the Committee has sent copies of the card to Chairman Briedentbal for tribution. The card ia signed by H. Edmiston, as ebairman, andS. R B. Weber, as secretary. It reads: “We denounce Paul Vandervoert asa tra'tor, whose sole object is to defeat Bryan. His reputation for twenty years has been that of a rail road lobbyist around the Nebraska Legislature. He has been exeluded trom all Populist conventions, and is known among Populists es 2 Hanna erat. He holds an office by gift of Republican McKinleyites, and we warn all friends of Bryan and Tom Watson to beware of him.” Always inseason, iny (Hulled Corn).

The Supreme court of the United States in the famous legal | , tender decision says: “Money is not | a substance but an impression of | legal authority, a painted decree.” Blackstone's (see Cooley's Black- stone, vol. 1, page 276): “The ecin ing of money is in all states, the act of sovereign power.” Tiffaney's | constitutional law, chapter 12, sec. tion 400, page 223 (Power of Con gress to coin money) says: “There is legally no such thing as gold or! silver money or paper money.
