GROWING OLD.

At ski well remember when
fancied all folks old at ten.
But when turned my first decade.
Fifteen appeared more truly ataid.
Then, oddly, when I'll reached that age,
held that thirty made folks sage.
But when my thirticth year was told,
l said ''at two score men grow DID,
And two score came and found me thrifty,
And SO drew the line at fifty.
But when reached that age, swore
None could be old until three score.
And here / am at sixty now,
And young ~ when at six trow.
IT'S true my hair is somewhat gray,
Aud that use cane to-day.
'Tis true, these roguss about my knee,
Say ''Grandpa," " when they speak to me.
But bless your soul, Tn young ~ when,
! thought all people old At ten.
Perhaps little wiser grown,
Perhaps some old allusions flown.
But wond'ring still, while years have rolled
When it IL that man grows old.

Murder AND Robbery
OF
E. P. CUMMINGS,
AGENT OF O. r. 4 N. CO.,
NETWORK BAR W.T.
MURDERERS AT LARGE.

At one O'Clock P. NJ. yesterday,
operator Bell, placed in our hands a
telegram from Mr.. Mays, Of Pomeroy,
which was too late for our edition, to
the effect that the body Of f. P. Cum
mings had been found in his bed at
New York bar, on Snake river, with
evidences that he had bscn killed by
a blow upon the head, and cut across
the face, and that the money was taken
and the money sacks left on floor Of
the room, and that the decd was sup
posed to have been the work Of China
men. Today, Friday, July 2s) on
the arrival Of the steamer, Baker, we
interviewed Capt. Baughman and
other officers Of the boat and learned
substantially, the following as facts in
the cose, to-wit:
Mr.. +. p. Cummings was lcsses Of
the ware house at the bnr and also
was the sgent of the o. Il. Il N. Co.,
at that point, man about 35 years of
age and a quiet and peaccablc upright
man, who had filed the position there
for about l2 months; that he had a
small room in the ware house where he
slept and kept his papers and money;
that on Tuesday night Of this week,
about Z o'clock, the Baker discharged
several tons of freight at that point
and Cummings was there to receive it;
that he is not known to have been
seen alive afterwards by any person
unless it was the murderers.
On Wednesday about noon man
arrived from Pomeroy with team to
take goods from the ware house, and
not finding MIR. Cummings about, he
waited about two hours, expecting
that he would return but he did not
make his appearance; he then thought
he would 60 to his private room and
see if he could not get some clue to
his whereabouts. He did SO and
burst open the door and then found
the dead body of Cummings lying in
his bed and covered. The appearances
indicated that lie had been struck
with the poll Of an axe on the head
and had been cut across the face, that
the room had been robbed, as purses
were lying on the floor. Without mo-
testing anything he proceeded TO give
the alarm, but as no one lived near it
was some time before the news reached
Pomeroy, where there was , telegraph
Office, and after it reached there it was
after the telegraph Office had closed
for the day. On Thursday morning,
as the steamer, Baker approached the
bar, Captain Baughman was signaled
to land and come ashore. When he
did SO he was informed OF tho murder
and requested to so and examine the
body and the premises and he did so.
He was told that the coroner had been
sent for, and so did not disturb the
position of things more than possible
lie however found the body in bed, as
before stated, with the marks of Q
blow upon the head and a cut upon
the upper jaw Of the face, as with
some dull weapon, and the teeth
knocked in and blood upon the mus
tache and cut on the arm. He alse
found blood on tho loor in front o,
the bed and bloody tracks OF ssare feet
as the deceased after he was murderct

Of which was bloody asd hairs blosdy

Of the murdered man adhereing thsrsto
As the coroner was soon expected ~
captain made no further examination,
hut ordered all hands On board and
proceeded to South Texas. took o.
freight and passcngcrs, and returned
at eve. The coroner had not svop
then arrived, but was expected fOrth-
with. Tho captain then learned the
following that had been discovered
while he was at Texas, to.wit:
That the body Of Cummings Ind
been shot in three places that svidsace
existed that five shots had been 6S1d
into the room through q knot hots n
the door opposite the bed, from whiok
the murdcrers had forced the knot -
Us to give them chance to SEQ Cam
inings as hc, lay in bed. This ditsdt-
cry led to tho theory among those pre-.
ent, that he must have been shot aiisF
daylight on Wednesday morning, and
that after he was shot he got ont q
his bed and stood up bleeding and that
the murdcrcrs then rushed Ii
and finished him with dn axe, thsp
put tho body back in ~
bed, covered it and robbed the room
Of the money, left 1t, closing the door
after them and decamped. The trusty
dog Of the deceased was found upon
the premises with no evidences thAk
he had been disturbed, Tracks, made
BY two persons, we're found leading q
the margin Of the river little below
the landing. They could not b.
tracked along tho margin below on -
count Of its being rocky. One Of the
tracks was very small and evidsotly
made with boot or shoe with very
small heel, as that Of a wornan's chce.
About q mile below, similar tracks
were found near the water, and IN the
brush near by. A woman living on
tho opposite sido Of the river, sAys that
she remembers Of hooking across tho
river between four ana five O'clock OH
Wednesday morning and seeing ! man
come out Of the brush and 90 down "a
the river as though to wash or get VA
ter for some purpose. She thought
nothing strange Of it at the time and
paid no further attention to il till she
heard of tho murder. These are about
all the Incidents known when the Bas
ker left for Lewiston, the amount d
money taken is not known. Odicerl
Of the company say he probably had
about 81 900 of tho company's money,
and must have had four or five hund-
red of his own. But little donbt ex,
lists that his murderers were persons
who knew all about the place, his hab-
It's, his unprotected situation, and who
had kept cases on bis receipts Of mqp.
cy from time to time. The last Re.
mittance he had made to the company
was some time last week and was about
$500.

BURNING OIL.
Tanks Containing 10000 Barrels in
flames at Olean.

BRADFORD, Pa, February IA spark
from locomotive on the Buffalo, New
York and Philadelphia Railroad this
evening set fire to little pools of oil in the
low ounds near Olean, N. Y, where
the United Pipe Lines have number of
large iron tanks located. A few mo-
ments after the pools Of oil were set on
FIRE the flames were communicated to
three iron tanks. containing in all 105, 900
barrels of oil, which are now in flames.
Pipeline men from all sections of the oil
region were summoned by wire to the
scene of the fire. Superintendents Snow
and Smedley, with large force Of men,
left Bradford by special fast-running
train. They took picks, shovels, cannon
and chemical fire extinguisher. Trench
es and embankments will be formed to
prevent the spread of burning oil when
the overflow occurs which will be at 2
or 8 o'clock A. NJ. Clear Creek runs near
the scene of the fire, and there are great
fears that the oil will strike the surface
of the stream and destroy number of
railroad bridges and houses near the
banks of the creek. The oil will be
drawn off as rapidly as possible by. per
forating the tanks with cannon balls.
The night is bright as day for several
miles about the tanks.

The recent accident" on the Hudson
River railroad has called attention to the
"block system" which is compulsory on
all the English. railroads, and has been
introduced in this country on the Penn
sylvania Central. The system consists
in the division Of railroad into sections,
usually of four miles in length, which
are called '.blocks," and the rule which
gives it efficiency is that two passenger
trains are not to he allowed in the same
block at the same time. When two
trains are going in the same direction
over the same tracks the rear train is not
permitted to pass the station that marks
the end of one section and the beginning
of another until a signal is displayed indi
eating that the section is clear. By ar
automatic arrangement it is "blocked'
until it receives the signal from the tele
graph statioh that the advance train hal
entered the second section ahesds Their
is telegraph operator and road inspecto
at the end of each section, whose bus
mess it is to keep the other inspectors in
form ed as to the condition of his section
whether there is train on it or not
This system is first-class in theory, an
that there were three accidents on tn
Pennsylvania road in one day recently.

The Crow Indians of Montana, with
whom trouble is expected in the spring,
are mountain tribe, who have long been
the valiant and energetic allies of the
United States troops against the Sioux.
They are expert hunters, and from long
assertion with the whites have learned
perfectly their methods of warfare, and
would prove ugly customers to handle.
They ride in column. wheel by fours, and
understand the force of the concentrated
charge, massing and pressing, but their
great forte is individual warfare, stealing
nnawares upon their enemies and making
sudden attacks. Their great war chef,
Long Horse, was killed nine years ago
by the Sioux near Bakers battlefield,
but they have many able chiefs left who
are capable of leading the young men to
war. Iron Bull is now very old and ut
terly opposed to war. He will never
fight the whites if he can possibly avoid
it, but once engaged he will never sur.
render while he has man left to strike
a blow. When he heard the white men
had found gold at Clark's fork, on his
reservation, Iron Bull Immediately sent
them word to continue to dig and he
would cede them the lands. When thu
Northern Pacific railroad ran its line
through the Grow reservation the Indians
pulled up the stakes and threw them in
to the Yellowstone river, but Iron Bul
said this would not do, and roundl.
scolded the Indians for disturbing tn
white mans stakes. He last year mad
treaty with the railroad commissioners
granting them the right of way for tn
paltry sum of 100000. The Northern
Pacific runs through the Crow lands TO
, istance of over fifty miles along tn
south bank of the Yellowstone river.
