Tfa following anecdote is narrated by
Conductor Baldwin, now running on
the New York and New Eugland lines
ct railway. Baldwin was formerly a
conductor on the Iron Mountain Rail-
road in Missouri, and it was his train
which the James boys attacked at
Gads' Hill in 1874, and from which
they stole Sl1 900. Conductor Baldwi
was the first person robbed. 4. Among
the property taken from him Jesse
James was his watch, an indisysnsablaf
article for him to have in the ptorY
ance of his duties as conductor. -
fact Jesse James recognized and befora
leaving the train he turned to the con-
ductor with the grace of Claude Duval
and, handing him his watch, said:
"Excuse me, sir, did not think. You
will need this to run your train" The
time piece is still carried by conductor
Baldwin.

The Last Chance,

The last Saturday and Sunday. DR..
Darmon, of 615 Market street, will pos
itively remain but for two days longer,
and those desirous of consulting the
Doctor will have to decide quickly, as
he leaves on Monday morning and will
be absent for two months or more.
The Doctor cordially invites those suf
fering from any disease incidental to
human life to call, as he will, if you do
as directed, give entire satisfaction,
regardless of those who may have at.
tempted your case and failed, as all
chronic cases are speciality. Beware
of the tree prescriptions, who with their
own remedy pretend to cure all i'm.
aginable diseases, whereas true science
teaches that the remedies cannot re-
main the same, but change according
to the different constitutions or stage Of
the disease. Remember all his consul
tations and examinations are free; and
tell you if you have any disease where
1t is located and the organs affected and
the producing cause. Office hours from
9 a. m. to 10 p. M, and for the accomo-
dation of those calling on Sunday from
10 q. m. to p. m.
