! The Chicago Mews says: "The reign
ot terror inaugurated by bandits known
as train-robbers is increasing in extent
and flagrancy. These outlaws invariably
select some lonely spot in the country for
their depredations. It does not follow
that rural police force could always pre-
went train robberies, but there can be NO
doubt that its effect would be to lessen
the boldness of American banditti. 4
rural police patrol, especially in sparsely
settled districts, would seem to be a ne
'cessity of the times. 1t is not often that
train robbers become so bold as to select
a point near large city for their iendish
work. That an express train only an
hour out of Chica 20 on the St. Paul road
has been held up by bandits proves no y
daring this class of criminals is becoming.
They must be checked in the interest of
,he safety Of the travelling public. If q
system OF mounted rural police should be
generally adopted we would also sooa
hear the last Of outrages by white.caps
and their allied outlaws"

son are essentially domestic joys; and
every one is either looking forward to
convivlal meetings with circle Of rela-
tions and friends or happy reunion
with his own family. At such time
middle-aged bachelor with no relations
teels rather out of it.
Now, although must plead guilty to
ten years of bachelorhood, l never was
one of the misanthropical type. I was
single (observe the past tense) not from
principle, but merely from force of cir
cumstances, and was never addicted to
shutting myself up with my books and
cat, and growing cynical remarks at the
pleasure seeking world. On the con-
trary, am OF somewhat jovial dis sposi-
tion, and was always fond of society.
Christmas time liked to spend at iolly
country house, and could turn my mind
to charades, dancing, rompiug with the
villagers or children, conjuring and
many other accomplishments. In fact,

In the northwest there are 200 miles Of
