LONE ROBBER ATTEMPTS MILFORD BANK UP Easily Captured and Sentenced to Long Term at Michigan City. John Collins, 30 years of age, giving his home as New Y’ork, was sentenced to Michigan City prison for from two to fourteen years by Judge Royse in the Kosciusko circuit court at Warsaw Tuesday morning, after pleading guilty of attempting to rob the Farmers' State bank at Milford Saturday morning at 11:15. Cashier Shepard and his assistants, Mrs. Blanche- Parks and Mrs. George Eelkner, w-ere in the bank when the burglar entered. He proceeded to the cashier’s window and leveling -his gun at Mrs. Parks said, "Stick ’em up.” Thg women objected, but the cashier dropped beneath the counter and sounded the burglar alarm. Apparently believing Shepard was to fire, the burglar left the building. Shepard, with an army rifle, gave pursuit. He used his automobile, which was parked near by, and fired two shots at the fleeing robber as he ran east on Catherine street, hut failed to hit him. By this time villagers began assembling and the tracks led to the Hasting barn. The prisoner, who was taken to

Warsaw, was caugh! in the Arch Hastings barn in the southeast part .of Mil_fo’rd T within 30 -tn inutes from the time the Dank burglar alarm was sounded. Villagers thought.the alarm was for fire. James T. Shepard, cashier of the bank, and'Milo Maloy and Ofdie Legman, Milford residents, took the burglar to Warsaw. He did not resist arrest, although lie was armed with a revolver. The large crowd that surrounded the Hastings barn included many persons with weapons and they made it evident to the burglar that he would be shot if he tried to escape. Authorities are inclined toward the belief that he is more of a tramp than a bank robber and that becoming desperate and surveying ‘the situation at the bank, he thought he could scare the two women into turning over the cash. The presence of Cashier Shepard behind the counter was no doubt a big surprise to the_robber. MISSIONARY ASSOCIATION. The next missionary, meeting" of the United Brethren society will be held at the home of Mrs. James Sponseller on' Thursday afternoon, Sept. 14, at 2 o’clock. This will be the quarterly business session and each officer is requested to bring a written report and every .member should plan' to be present. W. C. T. U. MEETING. The meeting of the W. C. T.
