Bold Robbery.

ST. LOUIS, Dec IS Between 4 and ,
O'Clock this morning the L. $ express car
on the St Louis, Kansas City and North
ern train. due here at j. II a. m. was en-
tered between Ferguson and Jeming sta
ton. ten or twelve miles from here Mes
senger Chas kmcaid was thrown into 4
large package chest and locked up, and
the safe was robbed OF from $4,000 to
$50 goo in money and bonds.
kincaid says he was lying on one OF
the package boxes in the ear half asleep.
when he felt heavy hand upon his shout
der. and on turning his head around was
confronted by pistol in the hands OF Il
masked man. Before he could speak he
was seized by the collar of his coat from
behind and under the cover OF two more
pistols in The hands Of another masked
man he was thrust into a large package
box, which had been empticd of its con-
tents by the robbers, and the lid closed
on him and locked. He does not know
what occurred after that until the train
reached St Louis, where he was released
except that he heard the men working ut
the safe and supposed they were robbng
it, He SAYS the doors OF the car, besides
being locked with the ordinary snap lock,
are secured by chains, fastened loosely ON
the inside. SO that they can be opened a
few inches. but SO that no one can enter
the car
Kincaid thinks that they boarded the
train at St Charles, but the fact that the
door OF the express Cur had been tempered
with at Kansas City leads to the belief that
the robbers might have come through from
that point as passengers.

Gen. Charles W. Roberts, late Democratic
candidate for Governor, expressed the opinion
to number of gentlemen within a week that
President Grant would be re-nomnated for Il
third term. AMI what is more, elected. Port
land Press.
There is often more in the manner than
the matter OF mans remarks. If the
General should point to a raft Of scoots
and say-''There's some first class lum-
Der that will go quick il the market" no
one would take it otherwise than as a
Joke So if the Press would place the
twinkle of the eye and shrewd smile Of
the late candidate alongside the solemn
type in which it quotes his remark, no
one would be deceived The vote of
Gen. Plaistead on the third term resolu-
ton doesn't by any means represent all
his constituents, most of whom are able
to detect scoots, in the White House or
out Of it.

A Remarkable Professional Success.

Among the notable professional men Of this
country who have achieved extraordinary sue
cess is DR.. r.. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y. The
prominence which he has attained has been
reached through strictly legitimate means, and
so far, therefore. he deserves the enviable rep

of success is the result of a thorough and care
ful preparation for his calling, and extensive
reading during long and unusually large prac-
tice, which have enabled him to gain high COM
mendation, even from his professional brethren.
Devoting his attention to certain specialties of

has been rewarded in remarkable degree. In
these specialties, he has become recognized

CONSERVATIVES, TAKE NOTICE.

Every moment of delay makes your cure more
hopeless and much depends on the judicious choice
of remedy. The amount of testimony in favor of
DR.. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, as a cure for con

support the pretensions of any other medicine. See
