A Strange story,
!" Are Nnu DR.. Lane. sir 7,

Al am"
The question was asked and the answer
received by Mail man one day last week.
The reporter had journeyed over the hills
and dales of Wyandotte county to see DIR.
Lane, aud had found him at his residence,
not far from the little trading point known
as Braman Hill, seven miles from Wyan-
dotte. DR.. Lane had been seen in order
that his personal testimony might be secur-
ed In regard to certain case in which he
was an actor, the details of which are al
most of a supernatural order.
In the summer of 1869 man named
Mitch Cherry lived in Labette county,
near to little town called Elston. Elston
was founded by number of persons who,
for the greater part, came from Olathe.
The new town was settled by Judge Buris.
Elston is now deserted. The site has been
turned into fields Soon after the settle
mcnt q dispute arose as to who possessed
title to the land on which Elston was
laid out. The town company claimed that
they owned the property, while certain
nected with the original owners opposed
the town company Finally tho case was
brought into court. There it was aorimo-
niously carried. Mitch Cherry was inter-
ested on one side of the case. Among the
witnesses, whose testimony was of extreme
importance to one side, was the county sur
veyor, a man named Davidson
Davidson was bachelor. He lived about
two miles and half from Elston. OHe
afternoon in summer Davidson was in his
came up and call ed Davidson o the fence.
Davidson obeyed the summons. After
some conversation Davidson made an APP
pointment to meet Cherry in his (Cherry's)
house on that evening. About the hour of
dusk Davidson entered the house. 1t was
rough primitive structure. After David
son had crossed the threshold and had the
door closed on him all consciousness of
what had passed vanished from hims The
next lucid moment that came upon him
was five months afterward on the wharf at
San Francisco. How he came there he
knows not. He came to his senses while
being brought to police station by a
policeman. The officer had found David
son sitting or lying on u pile of goods.
Accosting Davidson to know what he did
there, the policeman was surprised to find
that tho man was wandering, disconnected
replies indicative of a disordered mental
condition. Then the policeman took the
surveyor in charge. 1t was the shock of
arrest that aroused all the latent mental
energy of the man. At tho station house
Davidson told his unaccountabe story He
was supposed to be mentally deranged.-
When found Davidson had no money on
his person, and his clothes were worn. He
communicated with his friends in Labette
county, received money, and returned to
his old home, where he now is. Mr.. David
SON. health was permanently impaired by
the experience through which he had pass
ed. He converses freely ON the matter,
but does not attempt to explain it. OF the
period of time, the five months intervening
between the evening on which he entered
Cherry's house and the day when he was
arrested in San Francisco, he remembers
nothing.

Train Robbery.

New YoRK, September GA daring
and well planned train robbery was per-
petrated at daylight this morning on the
Pennsylvania railroad near Hackensacls
bridge, three miles from Jersey City. A
western bound freight train, in charge of
Conductor James Docherty was boarded
by five tramps at the eastern approach of
the bridge. The train had stopped at the
signal switch before reaching the bridge,
when the robbers sprang into the caboose.
desperate encounter took place. Doch-
erty realized the situation and resisted the
attack. lie was alone at the time, the two
brakemen being in the forward part of the
train. The tramps knocked him down and
demanded the keys. These he refused to
give up. He shouted for help, when the
men threatened to kill him. His son, who
was acting as brakeman, heard his fathers
call and went to his assistance. AS the
young man neared the caboose one of the
robbers told him to stand off, at the same
time firing a revolver at the son. The
noise of the shot brought the other brake
man aud the fireman of the engine to the
scene. Conductor Docherty was all this
time struggling with the thieves. When
assistance arrived the robbers became
frightened and fled. Word was sent to
Jersey City for help, and squad of police
men were detailed to capture tho robbers.
AT s o'clock two of them were arrested in a
'shanty at East Newark by Policeman
Speer and Detective Christman of the rail-
way company. Their names are Charles
Hendricks and James McGuIe, of 2l3
East Eighteenth street, this city. Young
Docherty was dangerously wounded in the
hip joint. He was taken on the train to st.
Richael's hospital, Newask, where he is
now lying in very low condition. Detec-
tiyes and policeman are securing the mead
owS in search of the other robbers.
