TRAIN ROBBERS BADLY FOOLED.
Mistook II Freight Train For the Express
and Got Nothing In the Way of Booty.

JEFFERSON CITY. Mo-, Feb. 15.-
Freight train No. on the Missouri;
Pacific road. which left Kansas City last
night was held up between Little Blue
and Pleasant Hill by a gang of masked
robbers. The robbers obtained nothing
for their trouble.
1t was undoubtedly their intentio to
rob the eastbound passenger train which
left Kansas City at $40 p. m. They
tagged the freight train with a lantern
and discovering their mistake tried to
make amends by raid on the caboose.
Information of the attempted robbery
was wired to Kansas City and posse of
eight armed guards was placed on the
passenger train and preparations made
to give the robbers warm reception in
case they renewed the attempt. Moth
ing more was heard of them and the
guards left the train at Little Blue.

Another little lamb has gone,
To dwell with Him who gave;
Another little darling one,
Is sheltered in the grave.
Go, little Jasper, to thy home,
On yonder blissful shore;
We miss you here, but soon will come,
Where thou hast gone before.

Eds. HERALD:
Pardon ME for seeking the privilege
of using your columns for a few way
side items. do not aspire to motor
iety under the monde plume of the
Man about Town" nor the woman
about the Country" nor will l con-
fine myself to Town TOPICS" nor
Country ethics" but to any and
every thing that falls under my
meanderings.
The country and town alike, at the
present time seem to be in a healthy
condition; yet l would not be sur
prised to hear of numerous imagina
tive cholera cases at any time. Peo-
pie are expecting it and think its
coming is nevitable-indeed some
will, no doubt, be disappointed if it
does not come.
The matrimonial market is dull,
very dull. What's the matter, do you
suppose? Think you, the administra-
ton has anything to do with it? |
for one am sorry that there is stag
nation in this branch of American in
dustry and hope the difficulty will
soon be removed. Whoop it up, girls,
and let us have lively time this fall
and winter. If you can't entice our
modest young men, seek new fields
and hunt bigger game. If you have
to support man, try and get one
that will nurse the baby, anyhow,
while you cut the wood and get break
fast.
The recent rains have been of vast
benefit to the late corn, fall pastures,
and gardens. | am sorry that all
could not be suited Some complain,
too much wind blew the corn down,
fruit off, few panels of fence down,
etc. Ugh such chronic GROWERS
ought not to have anything-rain,
crops, health, nor any blessing that
comes from heaven.
Out-of-town people are returning
to their native heath, laden with all
the life-giving elements that country
grub and exhilirating mountain air
can irnpart. We now look forward to
revival of business with increased
vigor.
AS my travels have been of very
limited extent during the last month,
my communication will lack interest,
but as the weather gets cooler, the
nights longer, the mosquitoes smaller,
the cider barrel fuller, and cocktails
more plentiful, we'll make things
livelier. ERASMUS.
