a COINCIDENCE IN THE CASE.

Negroes Condemned on the Second Anniver-
sary of the Ely sters Wedding.
Mrs. Eyster was seen at her residence
last evening. and was found attending to
some of the smaller duties of the store.
She spoke freely of the trial. but III a quiet
way. She saId that. of course. she was
glad that the men had been convicted, and,
believing them to be guilty, thought that
they ought to suffer for the
crime. There was one point which
she seemed anxious to make clear, and
that was that while she was earnest in her
desire for the conviction of Parker and Nc.
Afee, she dld not bear any i'll will toward
any of the rest of their race. She said that
both she and her husband had often be-
friended the colored people and had
never given them any otfense. She
as she could to bear up under
the severe strain to which she has heen
subjected. and felt that at times 1t was al
most impossible. Last night was partIc-
ularly sad one for her. It was the second
anniversary OF her marriage with Charles
Eyster. and it was remarkable cOlnc-
dence that it should be the day that the
men should be sentenced for his murder.
When tho drug store In which the shoot
ing occurred was approached by the re-
porter there was group of cOlored people
standing In front of it discussing the trial
and it's result. and il was the general topic
of conversation In that neig h borhoo dur
ing the evening. There is general
feeling Of indignation among the
colored population at the sentence inflicted
on Parker and McAfee. though the bet
ter element of the race have and still SYM
pathize with Mrs. Eyster Those who are
in charge of the drug store say that there
has been no falling off the trade. which
is largely among the colored people, since
the tragedy. and Judging from that they
do not believe that there Is much feeling
toward the oysters.

ANOTHER TRAIN ROBBERY.
Kansas Bandits Wound an Express Messenger
and Steal About 81, 900.

CIMARRoN, Kan. June 10.-The Califor
MIA express, No. 8. west-bound. on the
Atchison, Topeka 81 Santa Fe. was held mp
near this place and the express car robbed
of about $1,000 at 1:30 o'clock this morning
There were five bandits in the party. They
tagged the train Just west of Cimarron
and forced the fireman and engineer at the
muzzles of revolvers to accompany them 10
the express car. There they ordered ex.
press messenger WhItlessey to open the
door WIFI tleseey refused, and then the
robbers began firing into the car. The
messenger was wounded in the left
side but he pluckily refused to
open the door. Then the robbers
resorted TO dynamite. and with that
explosive blew the door in. They rified the
car of everything of value which they could
find. The express messengers strong box
was opened and it's contents stolen It con-
tanned LOCO silver dollars and other valu-
ables to an amount not ascertained. but
presumably small. because the box con-
tanned matter tor way stations only. The
through safe could not be opened. Having
secured everything valuable IN sight the
robbers made their escape on horses. riding
south towards the Indian Territory. Ex-
press messenger WhItlessey was not badly
injured and completed his run TO Santa Fe.
He is the messenger who stood of the Dali
ton gang at Red Rock. 1. T.. over year
ago. and who narrowly escaped death at tho
time bv shoortnu
