After finding rope we bound the
rascals and proceeded to make an
investigation. First, the battery
was disconnected, and one of the
clerks collected the dynamite car
tridges from the track and put them
in safe place.
Ned Aldrich and Jim Evans were
found in the upper room, bound and
gagged, but uninjured. Their story
may be briefly told.
A wagon had driven up to the
tower about midnight. Two men
entered the room, talked pleasantly
for few minutes and then, draw
ing revolvers, made the operators
surrender and bound and gagged
them. When the pay car was ap-
preaching, Ned and Jim guessed
what was intended, and Jim sue
ceeded in turning the signal bar
with his feet, displaying the white
light as we approached, hoping we
should run by. One robber ran up
and turned the signal back. After
my shot, the effect of which Ned
dimly saw by way of the stairs, the
signal was again changed, and the
car moved out of danger.
Chester and his clerks jumped
from the car as it moved, fearing to
be blown to pieces, not knowing
what had done, but they quickly
took courage of their desperate sit
uation to cover the robbers with
their revolvers.
The robbers in due course were
sentenced to ten years. imprison
ment. The man whose arm I had
shot turned out to be the discharged
Martinsville operator. He lost his
arm from the wound.
After things quieted down tele-
graphed from Jones Siding an &C.
count Of the attempted robbery to
the central office and returned be-
fore morning to Essex by passing
train.
Mr.. Chester was profuse in his
thanks to me and must have made

eve my instrument clicked out this
message in the unmistakab1e send

With my revolver I took steady
aim at his right arm, but before I
pulled the trigger the same voice
called out to the people in the car:
"Now, no trickery, or you will be
instantly blown up. My man will
get that satchel and inspect it's con-
tents while I keep guard over the
battery here"
The standing man went out the
door and moved from my line of
vision. Instantly I fired at the sit
ting mans arm, and a tremendous
yell showed that my aim had been
good. The other man rushed back
to the tower, when called, "Hold
up your hands, or you are a dead

At the same instant there was a
slight disturbance in the upper room
that l did not understand, and this
was followed by the rapid move
ment of the car up the track.

them. 1 first thought I had raised a

oed them before I had done any

As i O'Clock arrived and l had

ty has been spent in designing and fash
ioning the means of killing fellow men,
and every resource of science has been
drawn upon to that end. A writer in the
Popular Science Monthly for October de-
clares that 1t Is almost impossible to emu
merate the means invented by men to ex-
terminate each other in turn from the
spear and the yataghan to shrapnel, from
hemlock to prussic acid, from Greek fire
to dynamite.
Even the most savage tribes which had
no other evidence Of progress in the arts
possess the most elaborate and effective
means Of committing slaughter. The
bow and arrow, the blowgun, shooting
poisoned darts, and the boomerang are
triumphs of this science which the saw

developed in the manufacture of deadly
weapons, while in none of the arts OF

SLAUGHTER OF The SEALS.
EVIDENCE THAT THE HERDS ARE
BEING RAPIDLY WIPED OUT.

The Catch Shows a Falling Of of
so During the Present Season.
American Experts Present the Fig
ures at the Opening Session of the
Conference With the British and
Canadian OmciaIs-The Catch
From the American Islands Is to
as Between Canadian SeaIers and
the Americans.
Washington, Nov. 11.-To-day's Boring
sea conference began at II o'clock with
fun representation of the British, Canad-
ian and American officials. For the first
time the statistics of the catch of seals
for the present year was available. Those
were compiled by the American officials
and brought out prominently two features
which were regarded as most important
in supporting the American contention,
namely that the catch had fallen off
about one-half during the present season,
showing conclusively In the opinion of
the American experts, that the seal herds
were being rapidly wiped OUT and second,
that the catch of seals from the American
islands in Boring sea was about 10 to as
D6lWG6u tilS AdAAduldtl StdASISi uilNSA ilAN
British flag, and American sealers. The
same proportion was shown to exist
throughout the waters of the North Pa
ciflc.
The falling off of about one-half of the
total catch. both in the Boring sea and
the North Pacific is said to be most sig
nificant in view of the circumstances.
The present season is a better one, the
experts say, for the taking of seals than
last season. The same regulations apply
this season as last, and under, these cir
cumstances it is said that the conclusion
to be drawn from this years figures is
that the seal herd has been greatly re-
duced by the indiscrminate slaughter at
the alarming rate Of about one-half in the
last year. ls
At to-days conference the report of
Prof. Lucas upon the habits of the seal
was read, as were also the reports of
Messrs. Jordan. Thompson and Macoun.
The reports of Profs. Jordan and Thomp-
son had not been exchanged heretofore.
The papers led to considerable discussion,
which was, generally speaking, of an ami
cable character, although some marked
differences of opinion were expressed.

of next month, when the dredges will be
brought up to the Halifax river to dig out
the cut from Tomoka creek to Matanzas
inlet. This finished a continuous inland
waterway will have been opened from st.
Augustine to Key West. This
canal project was first inaugurated
by the late DR.. Westcott who
organized a joint stock company and car
ried on the business for several years, re-
ceiving payment in lands, from the state
under the International improvement act
at the rate of 5000 acres for every mile
of canal dug. The concern became land
rich in short time, and, 1t is alleged,
grabbed, with the aid of a legislative COM
mittee, several hundred thousand acres
from the state in excess of what was hon
estly earned. This little deal will be in
vestigated, no doubt, at some future pc
Rod, and may cover certain persons with
shame and confession.

1t Is remarkable fact that the most vo-

most bloodthirsty and cruel, and If this be
true of races 1T Is more true of individuals.
All history teaches these facts. The mon

struction of human life. Vuluptuous OUT
RACES are unknown among animals which

u1ct1nE On HIS GLOW
From the New Orleans Picayune.
When some act of outrage by human
being is invested with characteristics of
unusual ferocity, cruelty and horror-strik-
ing recklessness generally, 1t is the custom
to describe it as brutal. 1t is much to be
doubted If the violence perpetrated by
beasts ever is as shocking and atrocious as
that committed by men. With the excep
ton of the tame or domesticated cat and
dog, which are the constant associates of
human beings, it is extremely doubtful If
any ever kills except for the highly practi-
cal purpose of making a meal. The tame
cat and dog will kill for the pleasure of
it. and the cat win torture the mouse that
falls into its claws, but there is no relia-
BILE evidence that the wild creatures of
the cat kind ever torture their victims or
kill without eating. AS to the wild dog
or wolf, his hunger is proverbial. He is
always too ravenous ever to kill except TO
satisfy the demands of nature.
1t is doubtful If any wild beast every
waylays and Stays a victim except in ODE
dience to some urgent appetite. OF course,
the killing done by any animal in combat
while defending itself or its young cannot
be supposed to possess any of the features
of crime. But men kill deliberately for
purposes and to satisfy demands that are
not imperious. Many men have taken de-
light in torturing as well as numbering
their fellows. History is little more than
a history of murders, CONGREGATIONS, rape
and robbery on a gigantic scale, under the
name Of war, while the individual crimes
by personages of distinction in the earlier
history of the human race are almost in

Tallahassee, Fla, Nov. n.-There has
been considerable complaint of late
against the rates charged by the Southern
Express Company. The matter was
brought to the attention of the railroad
commissioners, and they this week met
the express people in Jacksonville to con-
slider their schedule of rates. new
schedule of charges was submitted by the
express officials, and the commissioners
have returned to the capital, where they
will examine into the matter and ap-
prove or reject the schedule.
A report has reached. the capital to the
effect that leader in politics in West
Florida is missing from his accustomed
haunts. The cause is said to be too much
familiarity with a neighbours wife, and
the incensed husband accelerated his de-
parture with a double-barreled shot gun,
loaded with blue Whistlers.
