The west-hound passenger train, or at
least the Pullman sleeping car portion Of
It, was held up by three hishwaymen
near Hos Springs, Thanksgiving evening.
The command to hold mp hands was not
responded 70 with enough alacrity by
Julius Friedman, Of Portland, and he
came near losing part Of his ear by bull
let from one Of the robbers guns. There
were half q dozen men aboard aud sew.
eral women, including DR.. and Mrs. Z.
E. Hey and Mrs. H. G. Thornton. Tie
men all yielded gracefully, AMI the en-
terprising rUbbeFs cleared up about s. 200
and six gold watches. II. J. Snively was
aboard the train, but had stepped into
the next coach few minutes previous,
and this saved his Waterbury and spare
change. The biggest loser was a miner
named Guimares, who dropped eight
hundred and odd dollars into the pot,
and now, through the courts. he wants
the Northern Pacific to refund and pay
for injury TO his feelings, for not taking
the precaution Of having the door locked
and having conductors and porters who
are willing to make targets Of themselves
in an endeavor to protect the wealth Of
the passengers. The robbers haven't
been located as yet, although 81 900 re-
ward has been offered for their capture.
It is now positively known that the
Roslyn bank robbers, or at least three Of
those who are under arrest for the crime,
visited Yakima shortly after lOotinR the
bank and spent a night here. Three
men, who have since been identified as
Tom Kenzie. Cal Hale and one Of the
Zacherys, slept one night in WIN. Lanes
stable. Mr.. Lane had his suspicious
aroused from various circumstances, and
informed the marshal that he believed
they were the Roslyn robbers, but no ef-
fort was made TO arrest them, nor does il
seem that any eTedence was given his
statement. Mr.. Lane visited Ellens-
bnrgh the other day and identified the
men who are confined in the Kittitas
county jail as those who slept in his
barn. Nat Yeates, who formerly lived
in the same neighborhood with the Zach
erys, Kenzie and Hale, also took trip to
Ellensburgh this week and recognized
the prisoners as his old neighbors, and is
confident that they are the ones who
stopped over in Yakima.

pose to eclipse all previous efforts in the
way Of church entertainments in their

made by the ladies Of the parish to make

Iceland, English and Puritan booths. as
well as at the New England kitchen,
which will be among the attractive fea-
lures.
