A STATION HoLD-UP.
Congress Junction Comes to the
 Front With Burglary.

Congress Junction at its best is an uninviting locality, but heretofore has been free of any scandal, shoot ing scrapes or other character of misdeeds, until this morning at ? o'clock. At that hour, or about two hours after the northbound train had passed, two highway men enter ed the s. F., P. & P. station and without any ceremony whatever drilled into the big safe used jointly by the railroad and Fargo companies, and blew the same into pieces, secured what there was of value and then left. The transae- tion was witnessed from beginning to end by boy named Johnson, a youth of probably l2 years, who was the only person in the building, and occupying an adjoining room. He did not report the deed until this morning, believing that the robbers were also desirous of ~blow- ing him up" too, as he puts it.
 The explosion wrecked the safe, but beyond that no further damage was done to the premises. Agent Adams lives near the station, and as IS his custom leaves the office after the north bound train passes every night. The loss is not heavy, and what money was secured Is of but nominal value.
 Deputy Sheriff Boscha was a pas senger on the up train this morning, which gives color to the burglary as one that was premeditated. He left for the scene today at noon with Sheriff Munds.
 Deputy Boscha says that that sec tion has had of late many suspicious characters around, who are travelling from the south this way, and make a speciality of safe cracking. It Is we'll for Prescott to be vigilsnt and we would suggest that our mer- chants be on the alert.

LATER.

Since the above was written 1t Is said that the robbers secured several hundred dollars in cash, besides other property. including a six shooter of Deputy Boscha. This officer on boarding the ears last night at that point left his gun lay ing on top of the safe, together with belt of cartridges.
 In speaking of the affair after ward to several anxious listeners, the kid who witnessed the deed said that as be lay in bed he was simply paralyzed with fear, and that it was the greatest medicine he had ever in his life taken for biliousness.

COULDN'T HOLD THE KoP.
After Letting General Warren Occupy Spion Kop the Boers Took It
 Away from Him Again.

London, Jan. 26 England was startled this morning when it was learned that Warren had been de- feated at Spion Kop, the advanced position occupied by him on Tues day night. The news came ir a cablegram from Butler, aud was posted at the war office at 11:04
 his morning. Buffers dispatch reads as follows:
 "Spearman's Camp, Jan. 26.-The Warren garrison, 1 am sorry to say I find this morning had in the night abandoned Spion Kop."
 That was all there was to the mes sage, but it was enough to change rejoicing into sorrow, joy to humili- ation at tbe defeat of British arms. The feeling of jubiiation which has prevailed since yesterday, was sud- denly changed to deep gloom.
 The bad news spread rapidly aud immense crowds fiocked to the war office in the hope of hearing further news of the reverse. Nothing, how ever. was forthcoming, but it is gen erally believed the war office has further news which it does not de sire to give out under the present state of feeling.
 From = newspaper reports and private sources It is learned that Warren's losses are enormous; that he was drawn into pocket where the cross fire of the enemy rained like hail on his brave troops. Under cover of the night he was forced to beat hasty retreat, much chagrined at the lossss sustained.

 Cavalry Forces Safe.

London, Jan. 29-Great anxiety has been removed by the announce ment that Lord Dundonald's cavaly forces which it was feared were isolated among the hills in the neighborhood of Acton Homes are safe on the south bank of the Tugela river. The war office denies the report that Ladysmith has sur rendered and announces that very heavy list will be issued tonight.

 New York, Jan. 29.-A special cablegram from London says it is learned from a reliable sources that Field Marshal Roberts has advised the abandonment of Ladysmlth.

A Doubtful Victory.

London, Jan. 25-The jubilation over General Warren's achievement in capturing Spionkop Tuesday, night is chastened by the realization that his success is only provisional, as it appears clear from General Buffers dispatch that the Boers fully realize the strategical import ance of Spionkop and at the time his message was sent they had not abandoned the hope of recapturing the position. e

Bad State of Affairs.

London, Jan. 4.-( A. a. m. )-Gen7 eral Buffers great turning move ment, of which so much had been expected, has come to a standstill His carefully worded message to the war office telling this. after silence of two days, reads like an apology and an explanation. la9
 The British infantry is separated by only 400 yards from the enemy. Butler declines to send his infantry across these zones against this formidable position by daylight and has disclosed his purpose to assault Spionkop heights by night.
 General Buffers silence is begin ming to create alarm.
 Boer Head Laage, Ladysmith, Jan. 23.-A battle has been raging along Oliver's Hook road since Sat urday between the Boers under Pretorius and 5000 British.

England is Prepared to Accept as True
 the News From Berlin.
 London, Jan. 28.-No more defn- ite information regarding affairs in South Africa is at hand this morn ing than when General Buffers brief message was posted announcing the abandonment of Spionkop. A feel ing pervades all classes, and it is shared by the military critics, that no news is bad news Moce or less detailed stories of the disaster to Buffers army have reached here by the way Of New York and Berlin. The Berlin story of the crushing de- feat of Warren, involving casualties amounting to more than 2,0O0 and the loss of seventeen cannon IS said to have come from Pretoria. It is painfully remembered that most of the news from this source has been found to be true. The critics are agreed that if Warren has been de- feated there is a liability that the rest of the story is true, namely, that Butler is in retreat and that his position Is most critical.
 The war office refuses to discuss .these stories and an impression Is conveyed that news IS concealed there which will spread sorrow through England. The situation is heightened, too, by disturbing news said to have been received from St. Petersburg of Russian movement against the Indian front fer.
 Gen. Buffers dispatch to the wal office states that SpiCnkop was aban- doned on account of lack of water inability to bring the artillery there and heavy Poer fire. His whole force withdrew south of the Tugela river with the evident intention oi reaching Ladysmith by another route.
 A dispatch from the Boer head laager. near Ladysmith, dated Jan 9. says: The British dead left or the battlefield yesterday numbered 1500." The Boers also claim that 150 of the English troops surren- dered at Spionkop.

BIG ENGINE Is SPEEDY.
Special Train of Colorado Excursionists
Tests New Locomotive.

Hallway men of all classes are
watching with much interest the
tests of the 1920 SERIES of engines
of the Rock Island road, the largest
running out of Chicago in passenger
service. Engine No. 1901 was given
its first severe test for power and
speed last week. The patrons of the
Rock Islands first excursion TO Colo
RADIO occupied fourteen of the largest
and heaviest coaches. This was
enough for TWO trains to be pulled BY
ordinary passenger engines OF the day
considering the speed required. The
big engine did all that was expected
OF 1t and more. Between Chicago and
Rock Island 1t pulled that train OF
fourteen coaches with ease ON sched-
ule time, and when called on for a
little extra effort developed speed of
over ~ miles an hour.
Engines of that class will haul all
the special trains which will be used
by the Rock Island In its series Of
Colorado excursions, at the rate OF
one fare plus $500 for the round trip
Three more excursions will be given.

TWO GOOD MEN GONE.
Jefferson Bice and Brother of Mason
town Buried on sunday.

MAsoNTowN, July 9--The attend
ance at the funeral OF the Bice broth
ers, Jefferson and Jacob. who were
buried Ia the Greene Dale cemetery
Sunday afternoon, was the largest
seen here in long time. Jefferson
Bice, who was born July Is, 1896,
married Miss Mary A. Sparks Oct. Is,
1864. He belonged to the Uniontown
commandery OF the Knights Templar
and was buried with appropriate hon
ors by them. His brother Jacob Blce
was single man, born, June %, 1890.
The funeral sermon by Rev. A. b. FL
lott was one OF his finest efforts, and
was listened to with marked atten-
tion by crowded house. This seems
to be a strange incident, two brothers
living mile or two apart, one ex-
tremely heshy, the other wanting in
flesh, dying within a few minutes Of
each other, and with the same disease
though neither vas contagious nor a
family inheritance, and both buried
in the same lot at the same time.
The former left wife and brother
George. They were possessed of con-
siderable property. which will he In
herited by Mrs. Bice and the surviv-
ing brother George W., the only leaf
on the family tree.

greatest amount Of the best thinking
with the least effort. AS man S
success in all kinds of labor, hard
work, trade, business and profes-
sional calling, depends mainly on
the quality of thought which his
brain will produce, the ability to
think more or less proftably is what
vitality determines his life. Professor
