Los Angeles, Nov. 11. — Two men
who wrecked the West Coast limited
of the Southern Pacific railroad in the
mountainous country six miles west of
Saugus, Cal., and then robbed the
frightened passengers, were being
sought today throughout southern Cal
ifornia.
Railroad officials announced that
l;lui;engineer„.i^X^,,BalU.was the only
casualty and that the amount of loot
taken from passengers was approxi
mately $500. Ball received possibly
fatal burns when his locomotive over
turned. The' boiler exploded.
The train operates between here and
Sacramento. Saugus is about 40 miles
north of Los Angelea.
The robbers, carrying out an ap
parently well planned plot, chose a
curve in the tracks to pry loose ten
lengths of rail with tools they are
believed to have stolen from an equip
ment shed at Saugus.
The speeding locomotive hit the
weakened rails and ploughed into a
ditch, overturning and carrying with
a^. mail, cars and two
coaches. Seven 'otlhW cars Of the train
remained upright.
' As the train crashed to a halt, two
masked men waving revolvers appear
ed in a sleeping car four lengths from
the end of the train.
They encountered Conductor Otis L.
French. One of them said
er stood on a stool, covering them with
his gun. They took only cash, refusing
jewels.
As they completed their looting they
ran to the forward end of the car and
disappeared in the night The nough
country provided them with numerous
hiding places.

General Pershing fought the war
with music as well as bullets. His A.
E. F. headquarters band, recruited
among the flower of American mu
sicianship then ia the service, was one
of the finest musical organisations the
world has ever seen.
Realizing that peace-time morale is
almost as important and much harder
to maintain than a war-time spirit,
General Pershing ordered the U. S.
Army band organized in 1922, when
he became chief of staff. He gathered
the remnants of the A. E. F. band—
“Pershing’s Own,” at Fort Hunt, Vir
ginia, in the Spripg of 1922, along
with the best musicians in the various
regimental bands of the far-flung
posts throughout the country.
This was the beginning. In Septem
ber, that year, the band was ordered
to Washington, D. C. Captain William i
J. Stannard was named leader after
exhaustive, competition. The wisdom of
the choice has been demonstrated by
the outstanding reputation the organi
zation has gained unnder his leader
ship.
I Speaking at an official function in
“There is a j Washington recently at which the
represent the United States musically
at the Ibero-American exposition in
Seville, Spain, this year—a privijiui;^
never before accorded a service band—
General Pershing enthusiastically sup
ported the proposal.
Congress, recognizing that the army
band was the official exponent of Lat-
in-American music in this 6ountry-r-
so named by the Pan-American union
—readily consented and made provis
ion for the necessary funds.
The triumphant progress cf the
band through the capitals of Europe,
and, finally, at the exposition itself.

Indications Are That Yield of Cotton
Is 17 Per Cent More. Average
of 172 Pounds Per Acre.
The official South Carolina cotton
report as' of November 1, is as fol
lows:
A South Carolina cotton crop of
850,000 bales of 500 pounds gross
weight is indicated by information re
ceived from correspondents as of No
vember 1 relating to condition, prob
able yield per acre, bolls safe, and
progress of picking and ginning. Little ~
change has occurred in the crop situ- f “
ation since October 1 when the fore- j =
cast was for 860,000 bales. | S
On the estimate of 2,362,000 acres , ~
remaining for harvest this year a; ~
crop of 850,000 bales would approxi-1 —
mate a yield of 172 pounds of lint per | S
acre, compared with the final e^ti-: S
mate of 147 pounds last year, a 5-year i ~
average of 160 pounds, and a 10-year | ^
average of 185 pounds of lint. j ~
Last year the stale produced 726,-1 S
000 500-pound bales; 730,000 in 1927;! ss
1,008,000 in 1926; 889,000 in 1925; and,
807,000 in 1924.
Present prospects are for a crop*
about 17 per cent larger than last year
for the state as a whole. In the north
west a group of eight Piedmont coun
ties has prospects a little above the
good crop of last year. Elsewhere in
the ,state the cotton is much better
than last year, particulvly in the
southern and middle sections, but less
so in the northeast where a section
centering around Chesterfield and
Lee counties will apparently make less
than last year. However, prospects in
Dillon, Florence, Marion and Horry
are for a final outturn much above
1928, so that the outlook for the whole
northeastern section is better than
last year.
ing to the frightened men and women
passengers, one shouted curtly: “Move
backward and shell out.”
The passengers of the last four cars
.were herded to the end of the train.
Lining approximately a score of them
against seats, one made a methodical
search of their clothing while the oth-
night some day be e.stahlished in thjs
country an army band second to none.”
He paused, then extending his band
in the direction of the band, he said,
“Thmre is my dream come true.’
When the war'department was be-
seiged with requests to allow the U.j
S. Army band to lehve the country to
