STAGE ROBBERS AT WORK.
Two U. y. Mail Coaches Held Up and
Robbed Yesterday ON the White
Oaks-San Antonio Route.

Advices to the New MEXICAN from San
Antonio announce that the United States
mail coach, running between that point
and White Oaks, was held up and robbed
yesterday afternoon by five men. The
robbers cut open and rihed the mail
sacks, turned loose their own horses and
took those attached to the coach, and left
the driver to walk eight miles back to
the nearest station to
GIVE THE ALARM.
News was brought into San Antonio by
special messenger at o'clock last even
ing, with the additional information that
the mail coach from White Oaks to San
Antonio was due to pass in that vicinity
three hours later and it also would likely
be held up.
There were no passengers on the stage
and nothing is known as to the amount of
booty secured by the robbers.
THE SECOND HOLD UP.
Since the above went into type it is
learned that private letter from U. s.
Marshal Hall, received this morning from
Albuquerque, states that his adviees are
to the effect that the same gang of rob-
bers also last evening held up and robbed
the mail coach east bound between White
Oaks and San Antonio station. No refer
ence is made as to the amount of booty
secured.
THE A. P. HoLD.UPs, PROBABLY.
IT is thought this gang of hold-ups is
the same who few days ago attempted
to rob the Atlantic & Pacific railroad
train, thirty-four miles west of Albuquer-
que, at which time Deputy United States
Marshal Loomis killed their leader, Cole
Young, alias Cole Estes.
Marshal Hall, Immediately upon being
advised of the facts, communicated with
his chief deputy, Mr.. Loomis, and this
brave and discreet officer is supposed to
have left for San Antonio station early
this morning to follow the trail of the
robbers.

Queer Salt,

In Lapland they have no salt, and the
bark of the fir tree is used as a substi-
tute. The Lapps peel the bark from the
trunk Of the tree, carefully remove the
epidermis, and then divide the inner
bark into quite number of very thin
layers.
During the brief but extremely hot
Lapland summer the layers are exposed
to the sun until thoroughly dried; then
they are torn into narrow strips and
placed in boxes made of fresh bark
taken from other trees. Deep holes are
then dug in the sand. and the bark
boxes are buried in them, where they
are allowed to remain for about three
days.
The second day fires are made over
places where the boxes are buried and
kept burning briskly for several hours.
The heat penetrates deep into the sand,
turns the fir bark a deep red color and
gives to it pleasing taste and odor.
Finally the boxes are unearthed, the fir
strips are pounded or ground into a
coarse powder, and the Lapps use it
Just as we do salt, only much more spar
ingly, because it is so troublesome to
prepare. -Philadelphi Times.
