The Holding UP of Trains.
To hold up ones train well and grace
fully is a desirable feminine accomplish
ment. AS usual thing this gift is not
acquired under fathers guidance-not
often through a fond mothers tuition.
1t is acquired by observation and prac.
tice on the part of the young woman
herself 1t has remained for the faI
west to produce a father whose six
daughters he taught the art of holding
up trains-and stagecoaches. This they
did with such ever increasing boldnesS
that the charming half dozen are now
behind prison walls on charge of high
way robbery. In this raising of fami
ly of daughters to manage trains proper
! ly the father took leading part. Lis
girls adopted his raiment, and in thi
manly garb went through the usual for
mula known to robbers.
While this new avenue toward EN-

popular even in Idaho, its manifestation
certainly shows that wOman's sphere il

of the old. familiar sound of the field

in the same direction; then another,

another, and by this time we had our
bewildered minds collected so that we
knew it was not Generals Lee and

to us that it must De Coxey's Common

rain fell throughout this section on
