He smashed the glass with his revolver,
covered the messenger and shouted to him to
hold up his hands. Instead of doing this Nc
Inery reached for the signal cord with one
hand, and for revolver with the other. "A
bullet smashed the hand on the cord, but not
before it had given the signal that aroused the
conductor. Then McInery fired on the robbor
and put bullet through his coat. Then tho
robber shot the messenger twice, once IN lie
right leg and once in the temple. He climbed
into the car and desperate struggle took
place, which did not end until the train was
stopped for the first time, near Weedsport;;
1t is evident that the robber had climbed out
on top of the cars and remained there through
the stop at Port Byron until the train reached
Lyons. So far as can be learned the robher
secured absolutely nothing, for which the

the train robber, was formerlya cowboy, and
later worked as a railway brakeman.

: Anarchy!

Talk of anarchy! And yet the two
old parties combine in Alabama to
defeat the laws and destroy the re-
public. Note this, the two old parties
DID combine. And having combined,
they together violate the most sacred
laws of mankind the fundamental
basis OF this government. No crime
ever committed between the two
oceans equals this in anaychical vile
ness. 1t will as surely destroy the
nation as the sun rises. Freemen will
never stand such lawlessness- such
destruction of civil society.

Owing to internal discussions last

rents and wounds are practically
healed, and some are so enthusiastic
as to think the state can be carried
for us. This, however, is hardly pos
sible. A full ticket was placed in the

Approaching Princeton, Mile Lacs

all the fields busy with the harvest

and we began. The music" was kept

been a mistake about the place of

blast-with the grain all "downed"
by the storm-requiring the old
fashioned cradle. But for all of that
there was a hall full of people-al-
though it was a small hall! Mr.. c..

the time-and "Doc" sailed in for
nearly an hour. Both speakers we're

was not large, but it was Of the right

drove Is miles to come. The brass
band generously came over to the
