special from Hurley, Wis, says: Every
month about this time the Ashland and
Germania Iron Mining Company pay off
their large forces of employees, and for
this purpose Cashier Wiley, of the Ash
land National Bank, shipped an immense
sum of money to Hurley last night via
the United States Express Company.
Upon the arrival of the money at Hurley,
the express company sent it to the Iron
Exchange Bank in a wheelbarrow. Be-
tween the hours of 1870 and 80 last
night the bank was entered and the en-
tire amount of the shipment carried
away by robbers. Only minor coin was
left behind.
According to Cashier Wiley's state
nent, SAL, 200 was shipped from Ash
land to Hurley. OF this $225, 100 was in
bank notes, $13,9S0 in gold, and $3.50
in silver.
The robbers had their plans laid most
perfectly. Like nearly every bank, the
Hurley depositary has a vault and safe
inside of it with a time lock. AS the
money arrived in town at 9.15 p. m,
after the closing of the bank, it could not
be put in the safe. 1t was placed inside
the vault, however, and Cashier Rey-
nolds remained in the bank, taking care
of the large treasure, until 1918 O'Clock,
when friend came along and he went
out to the theatre with him. When the
cashier returned at II 80, he noticed that
the vault door had been opened. Look
ing inside he was thunderstruck to ste
that the money was gone. A large num-
Der OF small silver coins were scattered
over the floor of the vault and all was
confusion.
Sheriff Mattson was hurriedly tele-
graphed to, but did not receive any notice
of the robbery until too late to catch the
train for Hurley. Not even the faintest
clue was left by the burglars. The door
of the vault had not been moved and it
was opened by some one who had learned
the combination. There were only two
men supposed to be in possession of it,
cashier Reynolds and assistant cashier
Leonard Perring.
The exact amount stolen was $50 1876.
The robbers were evidently in too much
of hurry to take the small silver, and
81 ,SO5 was left behind. The United
States Express Company is the loser of
the money. They did not deposit it in
the bank, but merely left it there for safe
keeping over night, when it would be
delivered to consignee, manager M. M.
Lyon, of the Ashland and Germania
mines. 1t is likely that the express COM
pany will announce heavy reward for
the apprehension of the burglars

Mr.E. =. Si1nnons.

Of whom we spoke in yesterdays
issue, arrived here last evening, and
spent pleasant hour with us. Mr..
Simmons is a graduate of the University
and has several college mates in Ashe-
vile. He became subsequently lawyer
ofgreat requirement and fine practice,
and was prominent member of the Leg
islature at the session of 1888. He is a
man OF fine literary tastes and acquire
ments, and ready, eloquent and grace
full speaker. He is now in the lecture
field, in which he has won high honors
wherever he has spoken. We hope his
lectures here, which will probably begin
on Tuesday evening, will have the liberal
attendance of our citizens. About a year
ago Mr.. Simmons lost his eye sight, but
his cheerful spirit and strong will enable
him manfully to bear up under the afflic-
ton.

THE ENCAMPMENT.

While, from a military point of view,
the encampment can hardly be considered
pronounced success. it yet had its
value, enabling the least instructed com,
panies to see their Deficiencies, and each
organization to gain some knowledge by
comparison with Others, The company
may be regarded as the primary school
of military instruction; the encampment
is the college, which rounds out and
makes useful the elementary principles
previously mastered.
The North Carolina cnCampmcnt had
too little discipline, too little drill, too
little earnest work, too much military
show and ceremony; but the troops i'm
proved rapidly, and gained much
knowledge that will serve as ground
work for future and hette+eneamp"entS'
As before remarked, troops should
never be called into the field, whether for
service or for instruction. when any part
of the expense has to bc borne by the
men themselves. Pay, food, clothing,
and transportation should invariably be
furnished, and if the States will not
letray these expenses, some arrangement
ought to be made by which they can be
paid by the United States.
With magnificent material and excellent
regulations, the State of North Carolina
owes her State Guard to the innate pride
and military spirit ofthe men themselves
She is like a vain but miscrly man who
sets up his carriage without providing
food for his horses. The State Guard is
either valuable or not. If valuable, it
should be properly cared for at the eX-
pense of the State. If not, it should be

The Current Did Not Fail.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, September 21.-
1t has been found by the coroner's in
quest on the body of Mrs. Adams. OF
Casey, Illinois, who was killed yesterday
by jumping from an electric car on Mis-
sion Ridge, that the current of electricity
did not fail, but that the cause of the ac-
cident was a lack of appliance on the car
for preventing the wheels from slipping
on a slick track. The electric current did
it's duty, as it was proved on trial that
the wheels were turning in the right di-
rection to carry up the track, but the car
being heavily loaded and the track being
covered with heavy dew, the wheels re-
fused to take hold Of the rails and slid
down the hill.
No farther deaf his have occurred, but
Capt. Owen Wiley, of Casey. is not so
well, and fears are entertained that he
will not recover.
George B. West mentioned in tonight S
Associated Press dispatches as passing
forged checks in New York, and claiming
to he from Chattanooga, is not known
here, and his name does not appear in
the city directory.

THE QUEBEC HORROR.
Ready Workers still Searching
Among the. Ruins.

QUEBEC, September 21.-Although the
rain fell incessantly last night, the work
of digging out the victims of the land
slide was carried on throughout the Ell
tire night. The efforts of workers were
concentrated on the spot where a man
named Kemp was supposed to 5e burned.
At clock this morning the work was far
enough advanced to allow him to be seen
ut a distance of about fifteen feet from
the base of operations. Kemp would
sing couple popular songs and then
would shout, police, police" The poor
man is either insane or in delirium. A
man named Beauchamp, who, with his
two brothers had worked at the
wreck without sleep ever since the
land slide crawled into small open
ing to get at Kemp who way lying about
fifteen feet away under an immense pile
of stones, but had not gone six feet under
the pile when the whole mass came down
on his back. Beauchsmp, however, be-
ing strong courageous span managed
to crawl back couple of feet, but could
not move an inch further, his progress
being blocked by the corpse Of a woman.
A RedemptOrist Father who passed the
night on the scene, encouraging the
workers, kneeled down and began to re-
cite prayer. The men, although almost
exhausted by their constant hard strug-
giles, and weakened by the pouring rain
which inundated all about them, seeing
Beauchamp apparently doomed to GER
tain death, rushed to his rescue with all
the energy Of despair, and after great
effort, their comrade was pulled out alive
and without serious injury though some
what stunned and bruised. John Nolan,
who was thought to have been killed at
the beginning of the catastrophe, was
found still alive, though he had been i'm
prisoned under mass of ruins twenty
feet deep for thirty-six hours 1t will be
several hours yet before he can be got
out. The men Of ''B, battery and Royal
school of Cavalry are still at work,

other or more perfectly well behaved.
This, of course, came from the high
character and individual standing OF the
men themselves. During the whole en-
campment, saw not Il single case of
drunkenness nor of disorderly conduct of
any kind. One man did get drunk and
disgrace himself by hourishing pistol in
the faces of women and children at a
hotel. He was promptly arrested, dis
armed, taken to camp, and confined in
the guard-tent. His conduct was a sub
jcct of comment of the whole camp. i
was informed that it was the intention
of the authorities to try him by a
general court-martial, with view to his
dishonorable discharge from the service,
which sentence in North Carolina carries
with it deprivation of civil rights.

james Miller.

Writing of James Miller reminds
one that the first martyr Of what is
now Somcrville, contributed 10 the
cause of liberty in 1775, was named
James Miller. 1t was on the day OF
the Concord fight. The British were
retreating pell nell to Boston. Their
line Of march lay through what is
now Washington street, Somerville.
A few rods west Of the corner of that
street and Medford street, and just at
the base Of glorious old Prospect hill
-whcreon tho FIRST stars and stripes
ever flung to the breeze was raised,
according to some historians-Miller,
a man 70 years Of age, by tho way,
took his place behind a stone wall
with a farmer neighbor and began to
blaze away at the passing redcoats.
The fire getting too hot for safety,
the officer in command of the British
troops sent back q platoon TO dislodge
tho plucky Americans.
Come, James, il is time for US TO
CO." said Millcr's companion, prepar-
ing to retreat.
"No," came the determined tones
from the hero's lips. II am too old
to rum" and, facing tho foo proudly
and deiiantly, he fired his last shot,
and with thirteen bullets in his heart,
ere tho smoke Of his own rife had
cleared away, he fell dead.

is unmarked today.-Boston Globe.

The Hunters.

Roseau raDcl, on Saturday. Charlie tells
some queer stories about tile amateur
hunters. One attempted to cross q
stream OH the back Of a pony. lie was
heavy. the pony WIS light; the water
deep and the pony's legs short; picture
sqne tableau in the middle ofthe stream,
rider on all fours OIL the pony's back,
both gvin: the general appearance Of a
two-story broncho, and both animals ap.
pearing very mucl, distressed.
Another one tried to cross the stream
Oh raft. He WAS also heavy. the raft
light. lie was no sailor. and the raft was
no sailer. Tableau in the middle of the
stream, with the raft two feet under wa
ter and alsp the hunters two feet in the
icy element. Voice FROM shore, cries.
"Say I. will me your best glrl before
you 90 clear under" There Is also q
rumor that one hunter was deserted
and left to chew the cud of solitude
for three days; said cud consisting Of
molasses and biscuits of his own make.
"Iiave they any gamer" asked the
reporter. "Why, yes" says Charlie.
"What is III" said the anxious reporter
with vision Of juicy venisen steak Gin
his mind" "Oh l think that razzle
dazzle cinch is their favorite, they played
poker until $. won all the loose change
and he won't put up his cash against the
l. o. U's of the rest Of the boys. They
will be even before they get home how.
ever, as he has to pay all the bills and
they have already sent in to Hallock
five times for more sustenance. Their ap.
petites and drinkin'. titles are remarkably
developed"
Then some kind friend in Pembina
fearing that they would forget what sort
of animals they were looking for. sent
each of them paper copy Of the various
wild beasts of that wilderness, witt, ,lirec.
tions to take the model in their pockets
and when they met an animal, to take out
the paper and compare it. and il the re-
semblance is complete to shoot it ON the
spot. Mr.. Trail who saw the paper fix.
ures, has directed Mr. Atkinson, when
he takes the next lot of mules out to the
ranch. to make circuit twenty miles
north of the hunters camp. for while the,
figures were intended to represent q
moose. an elk and bear. vet to him
either figure would do for the outlines Of
ci'atte' mortgage mule, and he don't
want to take the chances, especially q
the boys haven't seen anything wilder
since they have been out.
"Oh Solitude! where are thy charms?'
