We are now sub-dividing 10000 acres, in
Fentress County, into l00-acre lots. This
land is situated on either side Of the road
leading from Sedgemoor station ION the Gin
cinnat Southern R.R.) to jamestown, and
commences about miles west of Rugby. 1t
is beautifully located, and its capabilities tor
farming purposes, stock raising and fruit and
vegetable raising, are undoubted In order to
give the first settlers fair chance, we offer
these lands, for the present, at the extremely
low price of So per acre; quarter down, and
the balance on time. with per cent. annual
interest. We also give to parties purchasing
the option for two years for as much land as
they may purchase, at the same price, by pay
ing taxes and interest. AS the value of land
increases with settlement. it is safe to say
that at the end of the two years the reserved
land, if sold by the purchaser, will nett enough
profit to pay for the original purchase.
MIR. WILLIAM ROBINSON, whose hack makes
connection with the 5:45 pm. train from
Cincinnati at Sedgemoor station, will
take parties to the land at reasonable
rates, and who will also be able to give all
information regarding the same. Mr.. J. N.

THE FLYING FIEND.
Astronomical Observations by An Attache
of the Light Commission.

The comet is now plainly visible in themorn-
ing about an hour before sunrise. The con-
nectiOn of the LIGHT with astronomical events
makes APPARENT some interesting facts re-
speeding it. In the morning the sky is won
derfully brilliant. An the bright winter con-
stellatiOns are visible and riding high above
these dazzling clusters Is the planet Jupiter now
almost overhead As he passes the meridian, out
shining all other stars while not far to the
west is the pale planet Saturn, making Il beau
tifui triangle with AltleI,aran and the Pieidus.
Directly in the east, and not far from the hOri-
son is the great sickle of the IiOnwith KcguluS
flashing like diamond in the handle.
The comet may be seen rising about half
past four. and i'm - minutes would attract the
notice OF the most careless observer. re
sembles the stre;tmer of an aurora, but seems
to be tinged with the pink of the sky in that
quarter. IT rises quite broad and bruShike,
but by the time it has completely cleared the
horizon has faded to slender pencil of light.
which might then with some difficulty be
traced 10 or, Is degrees, and which Is. slightly
curved towards the north. The nucleus Il
sharp and i'll small shows disc of d;lzhlng
wilderness. This morning the comet was us red
as blood aud reminded one of the cymeter
SHAPED pt4oinet of 1s5s, which many people
thought BODIED war and famine.

TRAIN ROBBERS.
They Plan to Attack. ! Missouri Pacific
., G.E# ... Train,ybI salcH~E.
Their Purpose Discovered and Fkenselve
Scared Away by Railroad Employses.

81
Dallas, September ~a8.-Another plan was
laid by the train robbers to rob the south bound
passenger train on the Missouri Pacific road at
Venaia, Indian Territory, on Wednesday
night, but it failed to carry, from the fact tina,
the train men were appraised Of their move
ments at station above Venita, and had the
train we'll guarded. The conductor of the
tram was warned that an, attempt would be
made by the conductor Of a nerth bound
freight train. that had passed the robbers at a
water tank just north Of Venita, the place
where the other attempt was made some two
weeks ago. As the train passed the water
tank, the conductor and train men distinctly
saw ten heavily armed men, who retreated as
though they had been taken BY surprise, and
brakeman who was on a forward car says
that they all wore their pants in their boots
and wore SLOUGH hats, pulled close down. 1t
appears that from his position on the car, and
the manner IN which the light fell on them,
that ne got better view Of them than the 9TH
ers, and he differs with them as to the num-
of them. ~
From passenger aboard the train who ar
rived in the city yesterday, your reporter
learned the following: When the freight met
the passenger train and gave the warning, the
conductor told all the passengers that the train
was going to be attacked, and that all who
desired could turn over their valuables to the
express messenger, who would lock them up
IN the safe. Forthwith the passengers, with
fear and trembling, began to hand over their
money to the messenger, who locked them up.
One OF the passengers, burly Scotchman,
said, ne was only too sorry that the. safe was
not large enough to hold him The passen-
gers were advised to keep cool as though no
attack was anticipated, which they utterly
tailed to do, as each was hunting for, what
they conceived to be the most sure point. In
the meantime, while this was going On, ten
armed men had been scared from the i'm
mediate neighborhood. When 70. it re-
sumed its southbound Trip, running
rather slowly, as it was near the water
tank and Venita, it was feared that the rob-
bers might attempt to ditch the train. Both
places were passed, however, without discov-
ering any signs of the bandits, and the pas
sengers drew long breath of relief when the
two dreaded points had been passed. 1t is
presumed that the robbers were Suspicious
that they had, been discovered from the fact of
the train running slow, or they may have seen
that the train was heavily armed. Nothing
more has been seen or heard of them, vet
they can rest assured that the passenger trains
over that road are now nothing less than
travelling arsenals, and when they make an
other attempt they will meet with warm re-
ception. ''''|." .I"- 1" E'@ e!5i
