STRANGE RAILWAY CRIME.
A Robbery Which Could Not Occur
i'm an American Train.

Robbery Which Could Not Occur
i'm an American Train.
Paris Telegram to the London Standard.
daring attempt, under novel circum-
stances. to rob or murder a passenger in
a train is reported to have occurred in the
Bordeaux Paris express recently. NJ. AL
bert Roux, a Partisan lawyer was re-
turning to the capital from the south, and
in order to be able TO sleep on the journey,
he had taken a seat in coupe carriage
in which he was the only passenger. As
ney NJ. Roux made preparations TO lie
down, and was doing, when he was awak-
ened by a peculiar odor which seemed to
have suddenly invaded the compartment,
and which, according TO NJ. Roux, resem-
bled spirits of wine. AS he had a small
spirit lamp in his travelling bag, NJ Roux
thought this might have got broken. AS
he was getting up to inspect it NJ. Roux
noticed a man on the footboard of his car
riage, endeavoring TO open the door, which
fortunately, was also locked from the III
side. NJ. Roux drew a revolver which he
had in his pocket and pulled the alarm,
the train being brought to a standstll be-
tween st. Supice and Navzre. Meanwhile
the man had disappeared from the foot
board, and, as he was not to be found in
the train after a careful inspection, it is
presumed that he jumped down as the
train drew up, and made off across coun-
try.
In the next carriage to that which NJ.
Roux had occupied however, a discovery
was made which leaves no doubt as to
the intentions of this mysterious passen-
ger. small hole had been drilled through
the division which separated the COM
partments. Through this hole a glass
tube had been introduced, and some pieces
of india rubber tubing, which had been
left on the seat, showed that choroform
had been poured through them. 1t had
doubtless been calculated that the chic
reform would fell close to the sleeping
passengers nostrils and that he would
have thus become overpowered. Having
given the anaesthetic time to act, the thief
II Is surmised. got out of his carriage, and
intended entering the carriage occupied
by M. Roux to rob him. NJ. Roux was
able to give TO the police a careful de
scripton of this individual, whom he had
previously noticed at Bordeaux station,
and who seemed DESTROYS of getting in the
same compartment with him, but was APP
parently deferred by his engaging coupe.
The police have secured the surrounding
country, but up to the present have been
unable to find any trace of the culprit

How a Young Man Can Work His
Way Through College.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Will you permit me space in your
valuable paper to express my views
as to how young man can work biz
way through college. These few
scattering remarks may be helpful,
to those who, like the writer, hav+
to depend mainly on their own efforts
to secure an education.
When Abraham Lincoln was on
his way to his first Inauguration the
train bearing him stopped at New
Brunswick, n. J. The young men
Of Rutgers College gathered round
tie car and cheered. BIZ. Lincoln
asked where the young men came
from and the name of the place. He
was told it was the seat of Rutgers
College. He said pathetically," Would
to God that I might have gone to
college,
He might have gone ifhe had been
born little later, when the colleges
and schools were more fully develop
ed, Or better known. The spirit OF
Universities and colleges has changed
and the people have found it out.
The doors Of our colleges are vide
open, not simply to admit the sons Of
professional men and so-called gentle
men, but to welcome all comers.
The coming Ct Garfield was little
later than that of Lincoln. By his
time the progressive young man had
come TO recognize that there was a
pathway leading from the log cabin
school house to the college. Gar
field realized the fact and TOOK adj
vantage of every opportunity. Now
it is clear to every youth, man or
woman in the great public school
system that "whele there's d will
there's a way" to gain the ligbest
education.

The reason for the observance Of
this day in this manner was to teach
each student what Thanksgiving
Day is to teach him patriotism, loyal
tv, to government and obedience to
God. It would be useless to COM
ment upon the manner in which
every student performed his allotted
duty, because cursory description
would fall far short of doing justice.
Suffice it to say, all did we'll.
Rov Graicben read a portion Of
scripture suitable to the occasion
and offered prayer which breathed
forth, in fitting words, the gratitude
| and love all our hearts should feel,
| on such occasions.
Maj Meetzs made a lengthy ad
dress, which was replete with sound
| advice to old and young. It is to be
hoped that much, yea very much in
deed, of the excellent advice, given
by this elderly Christian gentleman,
will be needed by both child and
parent
The presence Of the minister, the
speaker, the trustees and the parents
were gratifying to the teachers and
very encouraging to the children.
This was pleasant as we'll as in
strrctive day to both teachers and
pupils.
