There is just one thing to be proved

mine is a great property and will de-
serve to be ranked with the copper

MASKED
AND ARMD WITH A REVOLVER,
THIS HOLD-UP DID A
GOOD JOB.
Held Up AshIand's Saloon at Tie Sid.
ing Saturday Night-Got SIS, a
Watch and a RevoIver-No Clew
to His Identity, and No Trace Of
Him Has Been Found.

Ashland's saloon at Tie Siding was
held up Saturday night, robbed of ev-
erything of value that could easily be
carried away, and the robber made his
escape. No trace OF him has been
found. and all the description given is
so meager that there is little chance
Of his ever being caught.
1t was about 8 o'clock in the even
ing. Ten men were in the saloon. be-
sides the bartender. The men were
at the bar drinking, or lounging in
chairs around the stove. The door
suddenly was opened and a man walk
ed quietly in. He was dressed rough
ly, wore a black mask over the lower
part Of his face and had his SLOUGH hat
pulled down over his eyes. In his right
hand he carried a revolver.
Stopping just inside the door he rails.
eG the weapon with a sweeping ges.
ture, and commanded the ten men to
line up along one side of the room.
They promptly obeyed. Then the hold.
up ordered the bartender to take hi.
position along with them. The fellow
then walked behind the bar, opened
the till and took out what there was in
it-a gold watch, a revolver, and SIG
in cash. He came out from behind the
bar again, and backed out the door,
with his revolver still leveled at the
row of men. His parting injunction
was that If any man stuck his head
out the door he would get killed. Not

teen minutes afterwards.
The man is described as being about
five feet eight inches in height, of light
complexion, and powerfully built. 1t
Is thought that he is a stranger at Tie

Siding yesterday and returned this
morning. There is no clue to the
mans identity, and Sheriff Cook and

American Importer Sees Bright
Prospects for Chinese Trade.
Kansas City, Jan. 10.-F. A. Blake, an
American importer of Shanghai China
was in the city to-day.
''The feeling in China now" said Mr.
Blake. seems to be a general desire for
peace. Within few years / expect to
see the Pacific ocean dotted with American
vessels carrying products of America 10
the Far East. AS soon as the present
trouble in the Orient is over new business
viii begin. The upper classes of China
are favorable to foreign trade.
The first goods which the Chinese win
demand will be the staple products of this
country. mining, machinery, cotton cloth,
flannel goods, canned fruits and meats,
fish. -four and grain.
But the Americans must learn to meet
the conditions in China. The Chinese
want a long time in which to pay for
what they buy.
1T is only the low element that fights
all Intercourse with foreigners. II is this
element that is most willing TO follow
an agitator like Prince Tuan."

JESS" OFFERED HER PAW.
And the Incident Nearly Broke Up a
Religious Meeting.

From the Philadelphia Times
Union CITY, Pa, Jan. S.-The week of
prayer has had one funny incident so
far. Jess. a pug dog pet Of T. r. smoot
is responsible for it.
Jess frequently goes to church with her
mistress, and among her other accom-
phshments She has been taught the trick
Of sitting up and shaking hands. Jess and
her mistress were in church, and the dog
promptly curled up and went to sleep.
She was awakened by the minister. who
was just closing his sermon with a beau
utul peroration. and besought those who
would flee from the wrath to come up and
give him their hand. No one responding
he repeated the invitation.
Come along" he pleaded. Come up
and give me your hand"
Thinking the invitation was intended
for her, Jess jumped off the bench on
which she was sitting. trotted down the
aisle. and, reaching the minister, stopped
in front of him, raised herself on her
launches and extended her paw The
man of God took no notice of the dog, but
nearly every other person in the house
did, and the solemn and sublime gave
place to the lauEhable and ridiculous.
Seeing that nobody was going to shake
hands with her, Jess very much disgust
ed trotted back TO her seat.

would make of this most profitable hotel

GRIP PREVAILS IN NEW YORK.
Victims Are Among People Who Go
Out Mt Night.

New York, Jan. 1o.-Grippe is epidemic
in New York. It is not so virulent as IN
past years. but there is good deal more
of it. Estimates from a large number of
physicians indicate that probably there
are more than 10000 cases of the malady
in Greater New York to-day
Peculiar evidence of the prevalence of
the disease and the kind of people who
are most liable to be attacked, is furnish
ed by abnormal falling off in attendance
at the city theaters.
The managers at first were greatly puz-
zled by the situation. They decided TO
investigate. A deputation was sent to a
number of leading physicians. They all
said that grippe was everywhere and that
it's victims were almost exclusively among
people who go out at night.
