A DARING DEED
Committed by Masked Men Near
TeXarkana, Ark.
A Texas and Pacific Train
Thrown from the Track.

The Express Messenger Shot and the
the Misunderstanding Reports as to the
Amount Taken-The Outlaws Escape.
Rube Burrows Gang Suspected.
TExARKANA, Ark, June 12.-Between
Camden and this place, Tuesday morn
ing, the express car of the northern
bound train on the Texas and Pacific
was robbed by four masked men, who
boarded the train at watertank near
which they had placed distractions by
which the train was derailed, and one
man stealing ride on the baggage car
was crushed to death.
The engineer and fireman had hardly
recovered from the shock when they
were confronted by rifles and pistols and
compelled to submit. The messenger,
A. M. Nesbitt, on discovering the rob-
bers, fired two shots, but was shot twice
by the bandits. The robbers went
through the express car, where they Sc
cured but little inoney-not more, it is
said, than $500.
There is some reason to believe that
they expected to find SIC, 900, which had
been carried to the depot here, but went
north instead of south. After ransack-
ing the express car the robbers took the
engineer and firemen 100 yards away
and seated them upon log, command
ing them to sit there with their eyes
shut one hour. The bandits, however,
went fifty yards away and fired upon
them, but without effect. The officers
here were notified and soon in pursuit of
the robbers. One man has been arrested
and is in custody, but not fully identi-
fed as one Of the robbers.

Says the Messenger Was Killed and &c.
900 in Money Taken.
Another account of the robbery is tel
egraphed from Little Rock as follows:
Another bold and daring train robbery
has occurred ON the st. Louis, Arkansas
and Texas railroad, this time the South
ern Express company suffering the loss.
At an early hour this morning the ex-
press Car attached to the northbOund
passenger train was robbed, between
Camden and Texarkana, by four masked
men, and about $40, 900 was taken from
the safe.
Messenger A. NJ Nesbitt was in
charge of the car, AS soon as he discov-
cred the intention of the men he fired
two shots at the leader, and was In the
act of firing third, when he received a
bullet III his right breast and fell to the
floor. The robbers boarded the train at
a water tank, where they had been in
waiting some time, Express Agent
Bum, of Memphis, Tenn, arrived Tues
day evening. and reports that Nesbitt
was killed and that the robbers secured
everything of value in the safe. The
men made their escape.
Rube Burrows Gang Suspected.
About fifteen months ago similar
robbery occurred on the same line near
Texarkana. Two of the outlaws, Steve
and Rube Burrows, the celebrated train
robbers, were captured and confined in
the Arkansas penitentiary pending their
trial. Rube escaped, and Steve died
while in prison. It is suspected that the
men who robbed the train are O part of
the same gang.
A late special from Camden says the
robbers placed Instructions on the track
in the shape of logs, derailing the train,
and that Nesbitt was instantly killed.

A CHURCH IN GREAT LUCK.
Has Several Acres of Property In ths
Midst of an Oil Region.

Has Several Acres of Property i'm ths
Midst of an Oil Region.
PITTsBURG, June 12.-The Forest
Grove Presbyterian congregation is in
luck. The little one-story frame chapel
in which the members worship is located
right in the center of the new Groveton
oil field, between CHARTERS and Ceraop-
oils. The stately oak trees in the imme-
diate vicinity Of the church are being
rapidly felled to furnish the foundation
for forest of oil derricks.
Already there are thirty derricks sur
rounding the original Vandergrift
gusher, which came in on the Young
farm last April and which is still flow
ing about 700 barrels day. The Forest
Grove congregation owns several acres
of the best territory in the district.
When the Vandergrift well was
struck, oil men rushed into the field to
secure leases. They found the good dea-
cons knew how to drive a bargain, and
for three small patches of ground the
congregation received g., 700 cash bonus.
Three good producers have been brought
in the past week with an aggregate out
put Of about / 900 barrels day
These give the church people daily
income Of 1926 from royalties in addi-
ton to the cash bonus. The latest well
to come in is owned by Garrett a. Com
pany, and is located just across the
roadway from the little white parsonage
occupied by Rev. John J. Beacon and
family Since this well came in, last
Thursday, it has been flowing steadily
at the rate of 500 or 800 barrels day.
Two more rigs are being erected ON
the parsonage lot, and in all probability
wells will be put down on the "Hutching
lot" a lot of ground just opposite the
church where farmers hitch their teams
while attending service.
If these wells como in as good as the
others the church will have an income
from royalties amounting to 81 800 a
month or at the rate of $4,000 a year.
The staying qualities of the Vandergrift
well leads the members to believe that
they are none to sanguine.

Under the New RuIos II Was Too Tame

In Difference to the clamor of a certain
portion of the Partisan public and the
demands of the society for the protec-
tion of animals the prefect Of police
sometime ago divested the sport Of bull
fighting, which has besome popular in
Paris, of its bloody features, by estab-
fishing a code of rules rendering the
bulls comparatively harmless and pro-
hibiting the employment of picadors,
whose lance-thrusts ordinarily enliven
the spectators and correspondingly de-
press the spirits of the bull.
Stripped Of the elements of danger,
which are the attractive features Of bull
fighting, the sport became too tame even
for the tender-hearted Parisians, while
the Spanish residents of the French cap.
ital accentuated their disgust by persist
ent absence from the entertainments,
and popular clamor once more arose de-
manding the restoration of the picador
and the removal of the safety appliances
from the horns of the bulls The pre-
feet of police has again responded to the
public call, and an order has been issued
permitting the picador to resume his
functions, though he still hesitates to re-
store the bull to even terms with his ad-
versary by removing the rubber cover
ing from his horns.

WASHINGTON, June 12.-Col. j. w.
Avery, private secretary to Senator
Brown, of Georgia, has just returned to
Washington after long visit to Allan
ia. Speaking of the present political
situation in Georgia, he said:
"The Farmers Alliance is powerful
organization in our state. The Demo-
cratic party numbers about 10000
voters in Georgia, and the alliance has
100, 900 members. That means that two
thirds as many as there are in the Demo-
cratic party are members of the alli-
ance.
"That they mean to take hand in
politics is settled. They win try to elect
a governor, capture the legislature and
United States senatorship, and elect at
least three congressman.
THE state convention will be held
early in August, and the degree of their
success in that will probably determine
their action in the congressional conven-
tions which will follow later In the
month.
"Hon. J. W. Northern, wealthy
planter living near Sparta, is at present
the most prominent alliance candidate
for the governorship. He is man of
decided ability, but is conservative and
has conducted himself with great dig
nifty in this contest. He has been a
member of the legislature, and is we'll
and favorably known throughout the
state"

THE STATEHOOD BILLS.

Senators Platt and Allison Say Idaho and
wyoming VIII BE Admitted.
WASHINGTON, June 12.-There is a
good deal of anxiety felt in Wyoming
and Idaho as to the condition of the
bills admitting those two territories to
statehood, and inquiries are coming here
constantly as to the prospects of their
passage. The bills have passed the
house of representatives and have been
reported favorably from the committee
on territories in the senate. Your cor
respondent asked Senator Platt, the
chairman of this committee, when he
intended to call them up, and whether
he thought there was prospect of their
early passage.
II propose to get these bills up at the
first possible moment" replied Senator
Platt, land am going to try to have
this silver debate shut off so that we can
get at some other legislation. The sem
ate is wasting its time listening to
speeches that are not intended to con-
vince anybody and that nobody wants to
hear, and ] think it is about time to
quit and take up something else. But
there is no danger of the bill failing,
because we on this side Of the senate
are determined that they shall pass be-
fore congress adjourns."
Senator Allison, as chairman of the
committee on appropriations and a
member of the committee on finance, as
well as the leading man ON the Repub-
lican steering" committee, which made
out the programs for legislation, knows
more about the condition and prospects
Of business than any other man in the
senate, and ! asked him about the
Wyoming and Idaho bills. "They are
all right" he replied. I'VE will not
adjourn without passing them, and l,
shall not allow them to be interfered
with by the appropriation or the tariff
