CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct. Five armed
and masked road agents held up an cleo
trio car in the outskirts of the city, be-
tween 8 and o'clock last night, and went
through the passengers in regular train
robber fashion. One passenger was shot,
and the robbers escaped without leaving a
clew of any kind as to their identity.
The spot selected for the robbery was
near the Berwin-avenue crossing of Evans
ton avenue. tie latter thoroughfare being
the one used by the North Shore Electric
Street Railroad Company for its cars be-
tween the northern city limits and the
suburban city of Evanston. The car
makes fast time along this stretch of the
run, and tonight it had eighteen passen-
gers, two of whom were women. As the
car approached Berwin avenue, north
bound, the motorman noticed a group OF
men standing at the side of the track. At

EIGHTEEN WERE KILLED,
Fatal Collision Between Two
Railroad Trains in
Belgium.
Ignorance OF New Signalman
Caused Most Appalling
Disaster.

BRUSSELS, BELGIUM, Oct. Two
trains collided between Wavre and Ottig-
nies. Both trains were wrecked. Eighteen
persons were killed outright and one hup-
dred were injured, some fatally. Among
the passengers were Fl. Beernaert, Presi-
dent of the Chamber of Deputies, and his
wife and sister. Nine. Moulon, the latter,
was killed.
Later news of the accident near Wavre
shows that the disaster was a great deal
more serious than the first report indi-
Gated. 1t is now known that eighteen per-
sons were killed outright and over 1OC
badly injured. Many of these were so
badly hurt that they cannot live.
The collision was not between two pas
senger trains, as first reported, but be-
tween passenger and freight trains. The
engine of the freight train struck the pas.
senger- cars, which were crowded with pas
sengers. Two of the cars telescoped and a
third was thrown upon and fell on them
crushing the passengers in a trightful way
The rescuing party worked throughout
the night taking out the dead and injured
from the wreckage.
The accident is attributed to the absence
of the regular signal man at Ottignies
who had been replaced by man having
an imperfect knowledge of the device.

FIGHTING OUT A FEUD.
Palmer Men Reported to Have
Lynched Two of Whites
Vaqueros.
NO CONFIRMATION RECEIVED.
Story Told to a Stagedriver by a
Man From the Scene OF the
Trouble.

UKIAH, CAL, Oct. 7.-Another chapter
was added to the factional fight in Round
Valley between the rival forces headed by
George White. the cattle king, and Yes
Palmer. Last week ]. NJ. Vinton, White
man, was shot, and "Jack" Littlefield,
Palmer man, was shot and hanged. To-
day word reached here that Brady Tutt!e
and another vaquero in the employ of
White were lynched.
AT Harris, in the northern part of the
county, desperate-looking man boarded
the southbound stage yesterday morning
and took his seat with the driver on the
outside of the coach. He seemed to be
worried and very much excited and
finally unbosomed himself to the stage
driver, to whom he related the story of
another alleged lynching in the Round
Valley country. He rode on the stage
until it approached Willis, twenty five
miles north of here, when he complained
of feeling cold and got off the stage, pre-
sumably to walk and get warm. He
walked ahead of the stage and was soon
beyond the sight of the driver. Shortly
afterward passenger saw him off the
road leading toward the foothills.
The man has not been seen since, and
many theories are ADVANCED in regard to
his sudden disappearance. 1t is claimed
by some that he was probably fugitive
from justice and had just escaped from
the Mad River country, where he had pos
sibly committed some crime. A matter to
be considered is that Harris is the same
distance from the Red Mountain country
as Covelo, and by travelling by Harris no
town of any size is passed until Willis is
reached.
Sheriff Johnson telegraphed to Deputy
Sheriff Hayden for particulars of the re-
ported lynching, but has as yet received
no reply. Some discredit the rumor but 1t
is more than likely to be true.
Under Sheriff Handy left Covelo on
Saturday, and early trouble was then ap-
parent. The witnesses in the Frank Doo-
little case have returned to Covelo from
San Francisco, and this may have precipi-
tated the trouble

both emptied their revolvers. At the last
shot Proctor received bullet in the left

MAY EMPLOY DETECTIVES.
Governor Bndd determined to Put O
ChecE Uuo1l Lgncyi7l0.

Governor Budd determined to Put q
Check lyon Lynchisag.
STOCKTON, CAL, Oct. T. Governor
Budd holds some very pronounced ideas
in regard to lynchings. He believes there
is less excuse for these outrages in Califor-
MIA than in any other State in the Union.
Those who engaged in the recent affairs in
Kern, MADEIRA and Siskiyou counties will
now be hunted down by outside officers
anxious to secure the reward offered by
the Governor. Those who participate in
lynchings IN the future may expect to be
promptly tried for their crimes. Governor
Budd said to-day, in conversation on the
subject:
SIN offering the reward for information
leading to the arrest of those engaged in
the recent lynchings did so with the firm
determination to stop this sort of thing in
California, if possible. There is seldom
case where a number of men engage in
perpetrating crime that sooner or later
one of them does not tell of il.
II believe the State should spare no ex-
pense in putting stop to lynchings. The
Legislature should take the matter up and
provide ample means for bringing lynch
ers to justice. If the sheriffs of the vari-
do this, then two or three State detectives
should be employed-oId and tried men of
unquestioned courage and ability. These
can be appointed either by the State or by
the Governor and confirmed by the Senate
or by the judiciary. California cannot af-
ford to have these stains on her name, and
the Legislature should provide ample
means to see that men who openly and
deliberately override the laws are severely
dealt with.
"Lynching must be stopped in Cali
fornia, and if there is any way to do it it
will be done. There have been number
of hangings at San Quentin of convicted
murderers since have been in Office, so
the people cannot complain that the law
does not take its course. If there are not
more convictions for capital offenses it is
the fault of the respectable citizens who sit
on juries.
'Lynching is not only crime in itself,
but it strikes at the very foundation of our
law. We go upon the principle under our
constitution that every man has right to
fair an6 impartial trial. There is no oc-
casion to resort to lynch law in California
now. We have courts that can and will
carry out the laws of the land.
sit is a strange thing" continued the
Governor, "that lynchings are often
countenanced by the best men of the
place. How can they expect the worse
element to obey The law when they them

THE BUSINESS MANS LUNCH. Hard Work and Indigestion go
 Hand in Hand.

Concentrated thought, continued in, robs the stomach of necessary blood, and this is also true of hard physical labor.
 When a five horse power engine is made to do ten horse power work something is going to break Very often the hard office will "bolt " his food ill few min utes which will take hours to digest. Then too, many foods are about as useful in the stomach as keg of>bails would be in fire under a boiler. The illused stomach refuses to do its work without the proper stimulus which it gets from the blood and nerves. The nerves are weak and ready to break" because they do not get the nourishment they require from the blood, finally the ill-used brain is morbidly wide awake when the overworked man at- tenpts to find rest in bed.
 The application of common sense in the treatment of the stomach and the whole system brings to the busy man the full en- joyment of life and healthy digestion when he takes Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets to relieve a bilious stomach or after a too hearty meal, and Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery to to purify, enrich and and sugar-coated pills made of highly concen- trated vegetable ingredients which relieve the stomach of all offending matters easily and thoroughly. They need only be taken for a short time to cure tile biliousness, constipation and sothfulneSS, or torpor, of the liver; then the Medical Discovery" should be taken in teaspoonful doses to in- crease the blood and enrich it. It has peculiar effect upon the lining membranes of the stomach and bowels, toning lip and strengthening them for all time. The whole system feels the effect of the pure blood coursing through the body and the nerves are vitalized and strengthened, not deadened, or put to sleep, as the so-called celery compounds and nerve mixtures do but refreshed and fed on the food they need for health. If you suffer from indi- gestion, dyspepsia, nervousness, and any of the ills which come from impure blood and disordered stomach, you can cure yourself with Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery which can be obtained at any drug store in the country.

THINGS DRAMATIC.

Next week "The Fatal Card" one of the greatest of the Frohman successesA- one of the most notable of the pretentious productions of the season in New York last year-will be seen at ORriens. "The Fatal Cardy had it's first produc- tion in this country at Palmer's theater last season. So great was the success of the play that at the expiration of the time allotted to 1t at Palmer's, it was by special arrangement transferred to the big stage of the Academy of Music, where it continued to play to enormous business through the wane of the season and far into the heat of the summer months. It will be given here in it's en- tirety. Scenic embellishments and me chanical effects, marvellous in their ae- compliShments. are as much a feature as the strength of the company of play els. The story of 'tThe Fatal Cdrd' opens in mining camp at the foot of the Rockey mountains. Gerald Austen rescues George Forester from a vigil lance committee. Forester tears card in two and gives half to Austen as a memento. Years later the men meet in London, but do not recognize each other. Forester Is called Marrable, and while apparently respectable, is leader of band of bond thieves. Gerald is in love with his daughter Margaret. Marrable's confederate accidentally kills Gerald's father with walking stick which Gerald left in his fathers office after a quarrel with the old man. This causes the son to be suspected. but Margaret overhears a conversation between her father and Dixon and tells Gerald, who conceals himself in Marrable's laboratory. where bond numbers are changed, and there he hears the story, but is discovered, bound 10 the stair case and left to die by means of an internal machine with a time fuse. Gerald asks Marrable to take a tribute out of his pocket to give to Margaret, as keepsake, and in doing so, the half of h card falls to the floor. Marrable recog- nizes it, explanations follow and the vil- lain's life is sacrificed by an explosion of the machine which he attempts to throw out of the window Messrs. Chambers and Stephenson have given us play that is filled with material that interests an audience. The dramatic portions are deftly sandwiched with the humorous, and the sensational episodes awake in- terest. The comedy scenes are very strong-that of the bathing scene and the upsetting of the canoe being very ludlcrous. The play possesses so much that appeals to all classes of theater patrons that it cannot fail to be popular
