A PLOT TO STEAL 100000.

Senator Thomas G. Platt's story of a treas
ure robbery that was frustrated by strong
guard sounds like tale of Missouri or Cher-
okee Strip But it was not. The scene OF the
story is laid in old Virginia, but there are all
the accessories of a Wild Western robbery.
AS it stands now the officials of the United
States Express Company believe that prompt
measures prevented Southern desperadoes
from stealing 1000 of Government money
which being shipped to the Hampton
National Volunteer Soldiers Home for the
payment of the pensions of the veterans quar-
tered there.
The details of the plot and counterplot
most of which are vouched for by Senator
Platt, who is president of the express COM
pany, are sensational enough to have been
conceived by the James gang.
1t has been the custom of the United States
Express Company to transport 100000 quar-
terly from Norfolk to the Hampton institu-
ton for the veterans. This was usually
sent in coin, and it had to be transferred
from Old Point to Hampton, about three
miles, by wagon, a strong guard generally
accompanied it. AS 10 attempt had ever
been made to rob the train, however vigi-
lance was somewhat relaxed, and the atten-
ton of the would-be robber was attracted.
Agents were sent to Hampton at the time
of the last shipment three months ago, and
they reported that the robbery would be
easy. All that would be necessary, the agents
said would be fcrGe of mounted men so To-
Gated to be able to make a quick dash
upon the treasure train as it was going over
land from Old Point 1t is believed that
plans were made for hiding the gold not far
from the point of robbery. Having done this,
the gang were to separate and conceal them
selves until the excitement occasioned by the
robbery had subsded.
Unfortunately for the would be highway
men, some one talked too much. A converse.
ton in Baltimore saloon was Overheard
and the information was sent to Washington
The case was then placed in the hands of de-
tectiveS, and plans laid for killing or
capturing every member of the gang 1t was
decided to ship the gold as usual. According
ly the coin left Washington last Thursday
and reached Old Point the same day. FRIDAY
morning it was started overland in ordinary
wagons for Hampton.
The detectives earlier in the week had
dropped into Old Point disguised as ordinary
workmen. When the wagons started for
Hampton Friday morning armed detective
occupied the drivers seat of each, and con-
ceaed in the box of each wagon were three
more men. In order that safety might he
assured another armed force rode about
quarters of mile in the rear At the
first intimation of trouble the men with the
train were to fire the robbers. This voley
come up
TIE robbers, alarmed, did not carry out
their plot. The gold went to HAMPTON in
safety. But after it had been delivered the
detectives rode out, discovered the place of
rendezvous and it is said, secured evidence
which may incriminate some persons who
live not far from Hampton

lis reported from Ann Arbor that
. surgeon in that town has made IN
anatomical discovery that may result
in the complete abolishment OF head
aches. He claims to have discovered
that sensory nerves control the blood
vessels Of the brain, = theory that is
opposed to the teachings Of the books,
hence physiolos,sts may develop an
anatomical process for quickly closing
the headquarters of the pain.works by
shutting off the source of supply.
In other words, it may be possible,
through this discovery, to wear q
clothespin on the proper sensory nerve
IN such away as to completely re-
move all knowledge Of the existence
of such thing as head. 1t is un-
necessary to say that any device which
will decrease the number of bromo-
seltzsr heads in this way will be a
priceless boon to humanity, although
it will be heavy blow to the powder
mills that are filing the stomachs OF
the people with all the various com.
binaiions of coal tar products which
quite often cure the headache by kill
log tbs patieut.
welcome the sensory nerve pro-
cess OF controlling the blood vessel:
! Of the head as happy relief from the
TONS Of tsblets and powders. As re-
suit of this discovery The time vii
come when u msn will only need tt
pinch himself IN The proper place o.
touch a button somewhere on his ana

No ONE doubts that the Uuited States

Sometimes we think that Imperialism
has found favor in the United States
merely for the sake of Initiating ard
tiEalling great European powers.
Some p7ople have pride in centem-
plating the lsrga space covered BY our
possessions on the map, without Stopp-
ing to consider how TREMENDOUS will
be the cost. Great Britain is not to
be enyied in many of her possessions.
OF all of her colonies, Canada, South
Africa and Australasia are about the
only possessions suitable to receive the

worth remembering that these colonies
