found out then what was the matter and shut the door. Conductor Learnard came in the car and asked wha. was up. As soon as he found out he asked me If had any money. When l told him there was me in the car and we had taken iD the situation he said we had better give them what we had and let them go.
 .'After some parleying the door was opened and the leader of the gang yelled hands up.' Our hands went up, and then l was told to hand out the packages. I went to get them and they yelled for my hands to go up again. Then l asked them how could get the packages with my hands up. They then ordered me to hand out the stuff, which did. When they had gotten all there was in the car they marched us all down on the ground and backed off into the woods. All of the men wore big black masks. There must have been twen- ty-five or thirty shots fired.".
 TALKED SAUCY.
 J. P. Roquemore, an employe of the Savannah, Florida and Western, who was passenger in the front part of the smoker, told the story of how the robbers covered Conductor Learnard and how his hands went up. He said the conductor didn t seem to be scared much, and that of all the saucy talk he ever heard a set of men get 1t was given to them by Mir. Learnard. He said the passengers were all frightened, I, and that no time was lost in secreting money and valu bles.
 THE ROBBERS.
 The robbers were all scout white men and wore black masks. As it was dark and little talking was done it was hard to tell much about them. Who they are is not known, but there is one thing certain, and that is, they were not professionals. Officers have been put on their track and it is very probable that they will be run down soon, and 1t may be within the next twenty four hours that come of them will be lodged behind jail bars.
 SOUVENIR.
 Conductor Learnard dug the ball that was fired at him first from the coach and is saving it as a souvenir. It is very large one and looks as if it were from a Smith 6 Wesson A.

THE OATH OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE NEW
 CHAR ADMINISTERED TO THE FAMILY.
 LONDON, Nov. 1.-The Daily News cor respondent in Yalta, who throughout t. @ cZar's s sojourn there has obtained the mo. t trustworthy and interesting information ], has sent this dispatch:
 ''The czar died at 2:15 o'clock this after noon. He was fully conscious. When he felt that his last hour was approaching he asked for extreme unctlon. This was administered by Father Ivan, who af- terward conversed with the dying man for some time. The car next asked that his family should gather around him. He spoke with each member separately, but at the greatest length with the cZarina. He then gave all his blessing. Finally he bade all farewell. Little by little he grew weaker. His voice at last became hardy audible. Soon after he passed away qui- etly.
 ''The oath of allegiance to Nicholas II was then administered to the whole family and at 4:30 o'clock cannons were fired to announce the fact to the world.'
 Alter confirming the death and the off cial already described, the correspondent says: 'sThe entire military army corps will pay military honor to the dead em- peror when the body shall be embarked at Yalta.
 ''The train from Odessa to St. Peters burg will stop at every important local station, where the local garrison will be drawn up to render military honors to their dead commander. The czarina is quite broken down, and the doctors are again fearful that her health may not witt. stand the weight of her grief ,'

 FRANCES STRONG, LOYAL FRIEND. PARIS IN MOURNING OVER THE DEATH OF
 ALEXANDER.
 PARIS, Nov. 1.-The first news of the czar's death came to Paris in an official dispatch to the foreign office. 1t was simply that the cZar died at 1:55 p. m. and was conscious to the last. The dispatch was shown at once to President Casimir- Perier. He read it, laid it down, and after a long silence said: ''He was France's s strong and loyal frieud.'
 Signs of mourning have multiplied ever since the news was made public. La Presse, Le Journal and Le Soir issued special editions with black borders. All sold as rapidly as they could be brought t, the streets. The booths and Dewsmen were surrounded by eager crowds struggling to buy papers before the supply was eX- hausted.
 La Presse's comment was: "All French patriots will be grieved by this sad news. he mourning will extend throughout Fran ce. The cZar was a sincere partisan of peace and devoted friend of our country. Our sorrow is unutterably deep, but there is no reason for despair, as the heir of Alexander III will recognize the close bond uniting France and Russia. The sorrow of France will be convincing evidence to the son and the sovereign that the union of nations, which has for years assured the peace, must remain and guarantee the peace in the future.'

The Chinese are however far more char
table than is generally supposed They
take better care of their families than any
other people in the world, and man is
supposed to aid the poorer relatives and 10
help them on in the world. With all the
beggars there are. i venture. fewer unem-
ploysd people in China to-day, In proper
ton TO its population, than there are in
America The government has charitable
institutions, and its officials are always
giving out of their own pockets. Some ex-
tracts from the great government journal
of China lie before me. From them see
that $4,000 was lately sent TO some of the
inhabitants of Mongolia who had suffered
through a late rebellion there, and that
lady in Picking had just sent a thousand
dollars TO relieve some poor people in her
native province OF Anhui.
In most of the cities there are govern
ment granaries where rice is stored up for
the poor against famine, and there are
blind asyIums, leper asylums, and in some
places, 1 am told, public hospitals. There
are no lunatic asylums. and families have
TO take care of their own insane. There
are no warehouses. but there are soup
kitchens and clothing clubs. and rice and
clothing tickets are often given TO the
needy in times of famine and in the win
ter. The huts in which the beggars live
here are mere sheds of the thinnest bamboo
mating plastered the inside with mud.
These usually line the walls outside of
Chinese city. They are so small that it is
hardly possible to stand upright within
them. and the average size is not larger
than the area of a hall bedroom The
floor is the ground, and this often forms
the bed of the family. There is usually
a partition which divides the hut in half
and the cooking is done over a fire of
straw which is built upon the ground or
in one OF the clay stoves which are used
everywhere throughout this part of China.
There is. ii must be remembered. no law
against begging in China, and the beggars
here have many rights as any other
citizens.
Our ideas Of the Chinese, however are
crude in the extreme. This is a country
OF the rich as we'll as of the poor and /
see every hour the evidences OF a social
intellectual and industrial life which are
different from any descriptions of China 1
have ever read and which are interesting
la the extreme.
