A CLUE TO THE ADAMS EXPRESS
ROBBER FOUND.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 30.-As the DAYS
pass the amount stolen from the Ad-
ans Express car on the st. Louis
and San Francisco Railroad last
Monday night, grows with alarming
rapidity. First it was said to be
$4,000, then $4,000, then $4,000,
and to-day, from the facts CLEANED
from the different shippers of money
by the Adams Company ON Monday,
the amount is estimated to be at
least 100000 and may aggregate
$4,000. Manager Weir was seen
last evening, and said to a reporter
that the best detective talent that
could be found was working upon
the case,' but that there were so many
clews. as to who perpetrated the rob.
berry that it was difficult to select
from among them. The threads OF
evidence were numerous, but they
were gradually being woven together
and they expected to hear from theil
agents in day or two.
Later in the evening Mr.. Weir re
ceived advices. which caused his has
ty departure from the city. Where
he went no one on the eoutside knows
and the company's officers refused
to say. Mr.. Damsel, manager O
the st. Louis office, said that i'm
portant news had called him ava,
and that they had at last struck tn,
right clue. They were sure of thei
man and he would soon be arrested
As to the robbers whereabouts O
identity nothing could be learned.

was a good demand, and prices were
well held up.

For fourteen years Thomas Heb

famous Kelly of the Chicago White
Stockings, will not play ball next

he may be mighty glad to play bal
next season or do anything else tt

in Christ.
She returned home for the last
time in her life, with the mark Of
the destroyer plainly written on hel
face,and she was declining with that
dread disease, consumption. She
bore her affiiction without a mur
mur, and her only desire was that
she might die in the full triumph OF
living faith. She always had wore
of advice to everyone who called OF
her-that was to live for Jesus.
She leaves q widowed mother
three sisters and one brother tt
mourn for her. She requested then
not to sorrow for her, but prepare t.
meet her around Gods throne, il
heaven.

Mrs. PHEBE J. LUTHY, wife of ST.
MON LuTHY, died of her residence in
Green township, Monroe County,
Ohio, October 20, 1856.
She was a faithful sand efficient
member of the M. f. Church, and
while her light was shining brightly
for the Master, she was suddenly
called to her reward, the palm, the
harp, the crown. She will be sadly
missed in the church and communi-
ty. But it is in the lonely, desolate
home that hearts are bowed most
heavily over this sad bereavement.
A kind husband, two bright little
boys and an affectionate sister sor-
row most of all, that they see hel
face no more; but their sorrow is not
without hope, and they will cherish
as their richest legacy, her bright
and sunny life, to them so full Of
delightful and cherished memories.
"Droop not in sorrow, dcspond not in fear,
A glorious tomorrow is Frightening near,
When-blcssed reward of cach2joyful endeav
They all with Christ shall be soon and forcv
err"
