HELD UP TRAIN
ONE ROBBER TOOK COIN
Held Up Sunset Limited in the
Heart of El. Paso and Lone
Bandit Made Good His Escape
—Entered Only Pullman Car—
Got $130
EL PASO, Tex, Dec. 22.—The Sun-
set express, the Southern Pacific fast
passenger train from San Francisco to
New Orleans, was nibbed In the heart
of this city at 7:00 o'clock tonight
by a lone highwayman.
The l-rntfit 1 onrded the nbservatlor
car ns the t* n was leavlnr Stent- t
street station. With two drawn re-
volvers he fo.eed a porter to walk
ahead of him through the Pullman and
commanded the passengers to stand
and deliver. He secured $130 In
money and two railway tickets.
After riding less than three blocks
the robber commanded a brakeman to
stop the train As it slowed down
he Jumped off and disappeared.

words:
"I love you so hard," read M. Ber- j
nard, counsel for D'Aulby, 'that It
makes me 111. You have given your-
self to me. All 1 ask is that you love
me a ways. That is God's best gift.
The day passes, fire dies, but my |
love goes on for ever. Tt Is an incan-
descent, consuming flame that dulls
me, sitting at your knees, cradled In
your heart.—Lucy."
Says He Wanted $200,000.
The duchess charged that D'Aulby J
demanded $?00,000 for the return of
letters which she had written him,
and that his entire conduct was that
of a blackmailer after the discovery
that the paintings were worthless.
She denied that she presented jewelry
to D'Aulby. Including a padlock bear-
ing the Inscription "you have the
key."
D'Aulby recalled to the stand, ad-
mitted having received $3,200 for wine |
which he did furnish He stated ho
kept the money because the Palnes
owed him $40,000.
M. Lablgur, business agent of the
duchess, whom M. Bernard attacked
yesterday by declaring his presence
at the bar with the counsel for the
prosecution was an Insult to the legal
profession of France, sent a challenge
tonight to Bernard to a duel, but the
seconds decided that M. Bernard had
not exceeded bis rlehts and that a
duel wns not justified.
