TRAIN ROBBERY.
Passengers In a Colorado Train Re-
lieved Of their ValuabIcs.

The Rio Grande Western train,
known as the "Modoc," was held up
near Crevasse on the night of tho 9th
by train robbers. Two Of them board.

Springs, climbed over the car to tho
engine, pointed revolvcrs at the heads
OF the engineer and fireman and com
PEELED them to stop the train. They
forced the fireman 10 attempt to chop
through the doors of the express car
and made the engineer bring bag 10
hold the plumber. Messenger Willis
was ready with magazine shot gun
and two self-cockiny revolvers. The
fireman was unable TO chop through
the boiler iron door, so the robbers
fired dozen shots through the car.
Messenger Willis lay on the floor and
was no. hit. The robbers dared not
show their heads at the broken win
dows, lest they should get shot. They
gave it up and joined two other rob-
bers back in the other car. The four
went through the train with their re-
volvcrs drawn and gathered in nine
hundred dollars and twenty watches.
One passenger put his head out OF the
window to see what was going on and
the robbers sent n bullet through his
hat. Most of the passengers hid their
valuables successfully, those losing
them being too much frightened to
hide them. Aposse has gone from
Green River in pursuit. Two Deputy
United States Marshals went out from
Salt Lake with bloodhounds.

One of ] hose DAYS.

The Columbus. Ca. Enquirer argues
that our southern cotton has increased
In value an average OF threcfold, by
being spun and woven. Surprising
! that the southern cotton crop Is worth
in the raw staple $500, 900, 900, il would
DO worth $1,000, OO0,00 to 81, 200, 000,-
900 when made into the various fabrics
for which II Is used.
But while, perhaps the $500, 600, 900
arc disburscd among the southern peo-
pic the other 800, 900, 900 or 5000. 600.
900 all go TO northern and foreign labor
ers and manufacturers. In like man
ner southern crude pig iron is sent
north TO be manufactured, and the
southern hides and wool are sent away
TO be made into various fabrics and
brought back for our consumption.
Thus 10 is that the southern people
are the hewers OF wood and the draw
ers Of water for the rest OF the world.
We have the richest stores OF raw ma
terial on the planet, but we only give
IL the rough work sufficient to fit IL for
the various elaborate processes OF
manufacture by strangers. Every turn
OF wheel or additional manipulation
expended on our raw material increases
its value by so much, but, apparently,
we are contented to get a small price
TO? our rude share OF the labor and
permit strangers to reap the benefit OF
the doubled and trebled values which
are communicated In the process Of
manufacture. We will learn these

DONE BY ONE MAN.
A Masked Robbcr Goes Through a
Wisconsin Central Train.

The Wisconsin Central passenger
train from Chicago, which passed
Chippewa Falls, Wis, at 4 o'clock on
the morning of Aug. 8, was held up
and robbed by a single man between
Chippewa Falls and Abbotts Ford.
Half an hour before at the hour named
a man entered one of the sleeping cars
Of the train, commanding the conductor
and porter to throw up their hands,
ana then proceeded to 60 through
them, taking all they had. One passen-
ger was also robbed. A shot or two
was fired at the porter but no one was
hit. The robber pulled the bell cord
when he had completed tho haul, and
when the train came to a stop he
jumped off and made his escape. No
attempt was made to follow him.
Jake Lit, the Milwaukee and Min
neapolis theater manager, was pas
senger on the sleeper, and u ball fired
at the porter whizzed by within an inch
of his face. The man was described
as having the appearance OF a woods
man. He wore SLOUGH hat and car
ried a pistol and knife in his belt. He
entered the sleeper and drove the por-
ter to ono end Of the car. The porter
yelled in order to wake up the passen-
gers, whereupon tho robbcr fired, 81
lencing him. The robber took from the
conductor $50 and n silver watch and
from the porter gold watch and n
small amount Of money, and from the
passenger some money and watch.
He tackled another passenger, but tho
latter told him the conductor had all
his money. AS a matter of fact the
man had $500 on his person.

A.FATAL QUARREL.
Bloodshed I'm Nebraska Over a Qucs-
ton OF Wages.

A fatal shooting ARRAY occurred near
Merriman, Neb., in which John Reeves
was shot and instantly killed by Geo.
Monnier. After the killing Monnier
delivered himself up to the sheriff,
stating that the shooting was done in
self-defense. The cause OF the murder
grew out Of quarrel between Monnicr
and Reeves in a settlement. Reeves
had contracted to work for Monnier
until the first OF December, but from
some difficulty, which resulted in a
bitter quarrel a few days ago, quit
work and demanded settlement for
the work done. This was refused by
Monnier, when Reeves left and return
ed accompanied by his cousin. He
came around and demanded instant
payment OF wages due. This Monnier
could not do, when Reeves drew his
revolver and fired, the ball passing
close to the head OF his intended vic
tim. Monnier being near the door,
behind which was his rife, he imme-
dlately grasped IL and fired the fatal
shot and Reeves fired second shot.

Truth and Sincerity.

These are simple words but full OF
meaning. They arc tho stamp OF
character and eau make golden each
little word and action. What weary
world this would be IL these two cle-
ments were banished from IL. The
pleasures OF society would DO utterly
destroyed and mankind would be utter
ly destroyed and mankind would seek
tho desert for peace and contcn tment.
On the contrary, where truth and sim
ccrity are the governing principle
society, is lovely and attractive. A
society thus governed, may be compar-
cd to a fountain OF living waters send
ing forth healthful streams, whore the
weary traveller may rest and refresh
himself. The fire Of II glowing imag
lnation may make folly look pleasant.
and lend beauty TO objects which
have none in them. But nothing can
shine with undiminishcd luster but
truth and sincerity. Sincere words
and actions, the unqucstionable indica-
tions OF sound sense and OF a correct
taste, exonerate their happy possess
ors from the whole OF that toilsome
load which the cnslaved and feeble
minds OF artificial character constant
ly sustain. Honor and honesty, truth
and sincerity, arc the foundation
stones OF u real character. Sincere
words and actions have power TO heal
the broken heart, and soothe carth's
sorrows. II is the un tfected interest
in another's welfare that renders one
a blessing TO community.
The spirit of kindness, sincere
wish to make others happy, retines
and makes lovely the whole being.
Then how essential it is that one
should ever strive TO be true and genu-
inc, to have every EXPIRE ssion made use
OF, standing for something. One may
be ever so gifted and accomplished.
they may be admired for wit and in-
telligence. but never can they hold
the power of affection and respect IL
these most important elements be
lacking in their characters, and they
will fall far short OF filling the place

EXHIBITION HINTS.
How tho Visitor to Paris Can Got
Along at Reasonable Rates.


II The visitor intends TO stay for a
few months In Paris, says letter TO
the Philadelphia Telegraph, there no
can hire an unfurnishcd room ut u
rental OF from 800 per annum upward.
The apartment once secured few
cheap articles OF furniture can be
bought and thus any amount OF hotel
bills saved. Also there are the great
auction rooms, where secondhand fur
niture can be purchased and th,n sold
again for not very much less than was
originally given for it. The difficulty
as to service may be overcome by Sc
curing the good Offices OF femme de
menage, who will come so many hours
day, clean the apartment or cook the
meals. and charge for such WORK from
6 TO 10 cents por hour But the res
taurant is the delight OF Paris lfc, and
l should not recommend much cooking
at home. The principal difficulty will
be to get sleeping accommodation; for
everything clso the life in Paris is
easier than perhaps any other towl In
the world. You can always got what
Is ncedful according to your means
and the poorer you are the better you
arc served lin proportion, OF course.
Again, rents and living outside Paris
will be, as usual. extremely cheap.
Paris is surrounded by charming coua-
try villages -Bougival, Meulo3, Cha
mart. Asniercs, and many Other gay
villages pleasure parties spend
tho Sunday holidays. Here furnished
villas, rooms, ana apartments can b,
obtained. and provisions are much
cheaper, as they escape the heavy tax
alton imposed on entering Paris. by
train the capital can be reached in half
an hour or so, and thus mixture OF
town and country life enjoyed mt com
paratively much smaller outlay.
Once the exhibition is reached the WIS.,
itor, II he come from distance, will
find all no can desire. There Is no
need TO return home during the whole
day. Plenty OF resting places are pro-
vided- gardens and sheltered places
and cafes OF all descriptions. r3staur-
ants OF all nationalities, drinks OF every
form and degree OF strength. Nor will
all this be very expensive, Some OF
the restaurant, undoubtedly will BIO eX-
cessively DEAR but others, on the con-
;rary. are to be exceptionally cheap.
One restaurant, for instance, is +, give
dinner for single franc; that Is, %
cents. Again there is rule that the
prices charged are to be submitted to
the ADMINISTRATION, and when approved
are to be advertised in some prominent
place within the cafe Thus the
stranger will be able to study what he
can have and what he will be expected

TAKEN FOR A BEAR.
Kentucky Outlaw Shot by Mistake
In Wisconsin.

A special to the Evening Wisconsin
from Amigo, Wis, says that at Bryant
George Irish was awakened by his dog
barking, and getting up thought bear
was among his pigs. He got his gun
and followed the dog to the woods and
saw what he thought was a bear. He
shot and killed man by the name Of
Bowman. 1t seems that Bowman was
IN outlaw from Kentucky, that the
sheriff from that state was after him
at Bryant, and that as soon as Bowman
discovered that the sheriff was after
him he went to the woods. The coro-
ner's jury returned a verdict OF acct
dental shooting. Irish regrets the oc-
currence but the neighbors are talking
Of giving him testimonial as a public
benefactor.
