About one hundred yards up the railroad. bs-

three chickens prepared for cooking l.y bes,de

Two water-proof coats, wrineins wet, and two

desperadoes In the main has been due SOUTH
west, follo wing the belt Of timber which is un-
broken from Northneld to the state line, and
everywhere dense, they have once dou bled on
thelr track, and In the nisht Of atty hours or
more had not proceeded more than thlrty-nve
miles whom last seen. The report tha they had
been seen In Elysian Ia oonnrmatory Of the re-
port OF their appearance at Waterville. Elysian
Is the next town west OF Watervllle. The rob-
bers we're subsequently run out OF the woods
near Wstervllle. IL may look ridiculous for q
I thousand men to hunt down six outlaws, one or
two OF whom are wounded but tue woods af-
ford splendid opportunity for am buscsde. The
people OF the section where the robbers have
beeD discovered are ignorant, superstitious Bo-
henilans, who could readily be made the obe-
dient tools OF the outlaws who scruple at
nothing Every foot OF the ground must be
gone over, aud there will DO shooting done be-
fore the robbers are captured. A telegram from
W asecs says that gentleman reports having
found grave dug by the robbers. II is believed
for the purpose OF burying the wounded man.
An excitement las been produced by the arrest
