A Bold Robbery.

GUTHRIE, o. T., June 4-The details of the
robbery of the Wells-Fargo express car of the
Santa Fe passenger train make the story one
of unexampled outlawry on the part of the
bandits, and of a brave resistance on the part
of the custOdians of the express company's
property.
The robbers were at work the best part of
an hour attempting to intimidate the express
messengers into submission, and during all
that time the m essengers were risking their
lives in defense of the company's property.
1t was 10 O'Clock when the train reached
Red Rock, in the southwest corner of the
Otoe and Missouri reservation, in the Chero-
kee strip. Just as it was pulling out two
men, with black masks covering their faces,
jumped suddenly into the engines cab from
the tender, and covering the engineer and
fireman with revOlyers, commanded them 10
run their tram down TO the stock yards and
stop there at given signal Carl Mack, the
engineer, and Frank Rogers, the fireman.
obeyed the command. To have resisted
would have meant death.
When the train stopped the two men were
joined by i've masked companions. The
leader commanded the engineer and fireman
TO walk back to the express car, and then
commanded the fireman to break open the
door with his coal pick.
E {. Whittlesey, the messenger, and j. A.
Riehl, the guard, anticipating what was go
ing on when the train came to a stop, mad
blown out the lights in their car and refused
to allow anyone to enter. The bandits then
opened fire upon the car from all sides, and
| the two men within it responded promptly,
aiming all their shots at the door. The high
waymen shot into the car from all quarters,
even getting under it and shooting through
the floor. Their firing, however, was all e
no effect, for the messengers braVely stood
/ their ground.
In the meantime one of the robbers had
| chopped hole in the door of the car large
| enough to admit a mans body and the ire
man was told to crawl thrOughit into the car
| This placed him literally between two fires
and Engineer Mack, seeing that it mean
/ death to his companion, explained the sltua
| ton to the messengers within and told then
/ to cease firing.
When the robbers finally gained entranc,
to the car they covered those within witt
their guns, and with sledge hammer ane
chisel broke open both the way and through
safes and robbed them of everything of value
They also took $50 and gold watch from tn
| guard of the express car. Messenger Whit
| tlesey had hidden his IN Oney and watch ant
the robbers got nothing from him.
The amount secured by the robbers IS an
known, as the express company has made nj
| statement.
After the robbery, the men mounted thei
horses and rode OF to the southwest.

How the Leaders rang,

MINNEAPOLIS, June 4.-The confidence
with which the selfconstituted Blaine boom
ers have announced that he would accept the
nomination if it were offered him. and the
calm assurance with which they are prose
cutting the contest in his behalf, has sudden
ly given seriousness to the whole Blaine
movement, and the more careful politicians
are directing their attention to dill
gent analysis of the probable vote of various
state delegations. In the matter of figures
the Harrison managers point to states which
gave positive Instructions for the president,
and point to assurances of support which
they claim to be daily receiving from in
strHcted delegations.
The Blaine people give no details; but
claim about everything in sight, not limiting
their figures to those states in which no in,
structions were given, but elaimin g scores oi

It is said here that the alliance people in

Who killed NeIsOn7

A queer story comes from Aus
tralia TO revive the old rumOr, long
ago discredited, that Nelson was
killed at Trafalgar, not by a French,
but an English bullet. In the sgd
ney Bulletin OF Feb. IS there is de-
scription of a visit to the Liverpool
On. S. W. Benevolent Asylum. The
writer of the article found among the
inmates Of that institution-the
House of Living Death" he calls it
an old man called Daddy Brown" a
native of Canterbury, England, aged
los years, who had served for seven
teen and half years in the British
navy during Nelson's time Brown,
who is described as being a fine old
fellow feet 3 in his socks and weigh
ing 30 pounds. spoke freely OF his
naval experiences, and among other
things said that at was universally
known" that Nelson was shot by one
Tom Harden, captain OF the maintOI
OF the Victory, in revenge for his
tyranny. Brown added that at was
all tyranny and fiOgging in those
days. All OF US got flogged for any.
thing or nothing. A seaman would
be brought down from the rigging,
given two dozen, and sent up again
to his work.
