The Centralia HoIdup.

CENTRALIA, Ills, Sept. 22-A vigorous search is being made for the two robbers who escaped after holding up the New Or leans limited train on the Illinois Central road just outside of this city. In the battle which followed between the three robbers and trainhands one of the robbers was mortally wounded, and three of the crew were badly hurt. The thieves got nothing in the way of booty.
 When the train reached here three men, heavily armed and carrying tools which later came into play, boarded the front end of the express car. Just beyond Centralia Engineer Young and Fireman Mcdowell heard noise on the tender behind them Both turned and saw the muzzles of two big revolvers staring them in the face.
 Keep your mouths shut and stop the machine, or we il shoot, the robbers cried
 The engineer and fireman sprang at the robbers, who fired, and the trainmen fell wounded on the platforms connecting cab and tender.
 Then the robbers attacked the express car, in which were the messenger of the American Express company and Conductor Odum.
 During the heavy fusillade that followed two of the robbers broke in the door of the car with heavy sledges. Then followed a battle royal. The messenger and conductor, partly barricaded by boxes and packages, fired at the robbers as fast as they could shoot. The thieves fired, too, but they were at a disadvantage.
 During the shooting the conductor re ccived a slight pistol wound in the hand. The shooting aroused the passengers, and they began to conceal their valuableS. On the train, deadheading his way, was P. J. Sanders, a brakeman of the road. He came to the rescue of the conductor and messen- ger armed with shotgun. He attacked the robbers from the rear, and though in turn attacked by the third robber managed to shoot one of those in the express car through the body.
 The others, seeing their companion fall, took to their heels and got away through the trees and fields. One of the trainhands hurried back to Centralia with the news of the robbery, and the town was aroused. In half an hour posses of men were beating the country in hunt for the fugitives.
 The officials of the American Express Company in Chicago were notified of the attempted robbery, and two of them left for Ccntralia. It is not known how much money was in the express messenger care but it iS said the amount would eN ceed 1000.
 When safe in jail, Jones, the wounded robber talked freely and made full con feSsiCn.

HUNTING THE 0ENTRALIA BANDITS
The Two Men Who Met With Such Hot Reception From the Train Hands Arc stiIi at Large. but the Injured Robber Has Confessed.

Has Confessed.
 1 CHICAGO. Sept. 2o-The big Hancock ] tMich.l express robbery is at an end. The detectives have ceased their work, the evi dence is all in the money located and all the robbers arrested. They will be brought up for examination in the court at Mar quette, Mich, Saturday, and the money will be produced in court as evidence.
 Every dollar of it has been found, and it is in a safe place Three of the five men who cOnspired to rob and robbed the Amer tcan Express company of $T0,0OO have con fessed. A fourth would confess also if it were demanded of him, but the authorities do not want his evidence.
 Robbers Were Railroad Men.
 The robbers are Ed Hogan of Marquette, Mich, an eX-messenger, who has been re gently living the life of a sport and who was the originator of the conspiracy; Dom- mick Hogan, his brother, who was the express messenger on the train that was robbed and who had custody of the SIO, 900 that was taken at the time of the robbery; Jack King, the famous champion of the United States at Cornish style of wres- ting; Jack Butler of Marquette, Mich, an all around crook, who has done his term in states prison: George Liberte, an eX-rail road stoker, who was out of work and who was the only man in the party who was capable of handling a railroad locomotive. The web of evidence around these men is said by detectives who have returned to this city after working up the case to be so well put together that their escape is prac- tically impossible. The fact that all the other persons who had been arrested on sus- picion of complicity in the case were turned free shows that the officials of the express company are thoroughly satisfied that the | money is safe.

CONDITION.

Your teeth out. naturally you are anxious to have them replaced with new as soon as pos sible. Both dentist and patient are very often at fault on this point, for the simple req son: Your mouth is not in good condition in the majority of cases. There are many opinions on this subject. but VIC have neither time nor space to dwell on them. In ordinary circumstances your mouth is not in a proper condition to wear plate short of three months,s A great many patients desire tenn porary nlates. and are advised to wear them by their dentist tTo get used to wearing n plate.l We have found patients are better -rieased with work after waiting sufficient time, and we have had better success, both in adaptation and articulation; The reason of this is that the gums and process or soit bone. in which teeth have been embedded. have had sufficient time to absorb and shrink This enables the dentist to take a much bet ter impreSsions than he could otherwise- Tn our neStartcle we will speak of selections.
