Auto Run to Buffalo.

Kendallville, Ind, Aug. arthur J..
Eddy, of Chicago, who is making the
run from that city ito Buffalo on an au-
tomobile, reached here at o'clock
Wednesday night, having covered 40
miles on the first day of his journey.
Mr.. Eddy started from the Rush street
bridge at z o'clock yesterday morning
and was favored by pleasant weather
and fairly good roads. His plan for the
trip contemplated speed Of 100 miles a
day, easy running under favorable con-
ditions, so that the first stage of his
travel finds him far ahead Of schedule
time. At one. point in his ride he
crossed on his machine stream sixteen
inches in depth. Mr.. Eddy is accompa-
MED by a friend, Who however, is not q
mechanic or an expert.
Mr.. Eddy said that the most annoying
delays he encountered were caused by
stops to inquire the correct and best
roads. The travellers Will resume their
Journey this morning.

Police ofiicials here expressed the
opinion that the raid was the work Of
noyices Cooler and more practiced
heads, they say. would never. have stop
ped long at the storage mail car, but
would have attcked the express car with
little delay.
A reward Of $500 has been offered by
the superintendent of the road for any
information that will lead to the arrest
of the bandits, and 1t IL thought great
er amount Will be offered for their cap
ture. Last Saturday night an attempt
was made to hold up the same train at
a point eighty-one miles from Chicago.
A steel cable was stretched across the
track, but the robbers. for some reason,
did not appear. This attempt was made,
1t isigupposed, by the same men who APP
peared Wednesday night. Altho little or
no loss was occasioned to the mail, the
postoffice officials in Indiana and Illi-
inois are hot on the trail of the robbers.
AS soon as the news Of the hold-up was
carried to the Office of Inspector Stew
art, men were detailed on the case. They
will be assisted by others. from the de-
partrnent Of Indiana, in which the hold
up occurred.
Operator Daniel Sarber. at Miller's
Station. told the police that Wednesday
night at $3.50 o'clock four men passed
tie depot on a hand car. going at rap
Id rate. The car was one which had been
missed fromaa section house few miles
east and the men operating 1t evidently
were novices at working It.
A part OF a business card was found
near the scene OF the hold-up and on the
back of 1t was written "Chinky Kinky."
In the pockets OF one OF the suspects ar
rested was found card on which was
written, the name OF Becker and the
detectives declared that the writing on
the two cards was Identical In style.
Shortly after midnight a launch with
out lights passed into the river from the
loke and passed downward towards the
drainage canal. The boat was going at
a high speed when 1t passed the Adams
street bridge and attracted the attention
o fthe Waterman. Further investigation
led to the discovery that gasoline was
ordered for a launch near the stock
yards three days ago, and detectives
were put at work to learn to whom the
fuel was delivered.
The engineer and fireman were unable
to identify any Of the suspects captured
near Miller's Station. owing to the fact
that the faces OF the bandits had been
concealed by masks.

Strange Facts.

A very strange fact is presented
in the election of last Tuesday,
and that is: The republicans swept
the political platter clean, and yet
the number of republican votes
cast was not so large as at the
election two years ago. Take Iowa
as a sample; Shaws vote two years
ago was 239, ,464, and the total vote
WAS 433,35l, and this year Com
Minis majority is about 100000, and
yet his total vote is $4,000 less
than two years ago. This shows
larger republican majorities with
fewer votes. Strange!
Almost every man you meet can
tell you just how it happened, but
we are satisfied the defeat was for
want of votes; no use of talking of
voters who failed to vote--such
men don't count. It's the live, ac-
tive, energetic American citizen
who appreciates his privileges as
citizen who votes,

It's Sad but True.

Man, that is born of parents, ia
of but few days and full of mi
crobes. He goeth to school when
a youngster and gets the eeat of
his pants padded for something
he didn't do until he is sick at
heart. He grows like weed in
the back yard and soon reaches
the age when he is composed larg-
ly of feet, freckles and appetite
for pie. About the time he gets
too long for short trousers and
not tall enough for long ones he
goeth away to college and learn
eth how to mokey on a So mando-
lin and play poker. He cometh
home a bigger fool than ever and
marrieth a sweet young thing,
whose pa is supposed to be
wealthy, but whom, he subse-
quently ascertaineth, could not
buy a rooster at a country inn.
He worrieth along from year to
year, gradually acquiring off
spring until his house resembles
a Sunday school just before
Christmas. He fretteth through
the day and lieth awake nights
trying to figure how to keep his
independent population out of
the poor house; his efforts are re-
warded by having his daughter
run away and get married and
bring home nice son in-law
every day to feast at his board.
His sons grow up and call him
governor and send back for a five
every day or two. About the time
he has acquired enough lucre to
quarrel over he contrac!eth u bad
cold and is hurried away before
hs has time to talk to his family.
His son blows in his estate on bad
whisky and plug hats, and his
wife puts the finishing touches on
his career by marrying the hired
man.-Ex.
