UNIQUE OLD COACH.
One That Has Carried Presidents and
Kings and Been Held Up By
the James Boys.

| Andrew Mccoy, proprietor Of the

people from every civilized nation In
the world, including presidents, con-
gresmen. senators, kings. queens. EN-

says the Boston Herald.
The old stage has an unique history.
II was held up by jesse and Frank
James and its passengers robbed in
the afternoon OF September 3, 1900.
The old coach was taking heavy load
Of passengers to Cave City, distance
of nine miles.
At q point midway between the two
places, in lonely hollow, where q
dense forest sheltered the road on
each side, two horsemen with drawn
pistols rode up and ordered the driver
to halt. The passengers were ordered
to get out Of the stage and stand In
line. One OF the highwaymen kept
the passengers covered with his pistol
while the other proceeded TO rob them.
About 81 900, several watches and dia-
monds were taken. After they had Sc
cured their booty they told the pas
sengers to get back into the stage
and ordered the driver to drive on.
A large reward was offered for the
apprehension and conviction OF the
robbers. As result several suspects
were arrested and one man, named

DESTROYING RAINS.

Even Water Fowls Are Suffering
I'm England.

From all parts of England and much

been extraordinarily heavy, but have
lowered the temperature to an un.
usual degree, adding to the plague Oh

suffered. June is the most critical

It Is curious fact that wet weathex
is quite as fatal TO young water fowls
as to land birds. Mr.. j. G. Millais in

CHICAGO, Sept. 10-"The Titles is the
strange name of a new disease which is
threatening the peace OF mind and the
pocket-books of fruit growers. Peach
paralysis would describe. the effects OF
the new terror of the orchard. 1t is de-
stroying hundreds of acres of peaches in
Michigan, and heroic measures are being
taken by the Federal Government to
eradicate the blight.

cultural Department. at Washington. is
inspecting the orchards, around South
Haven. Whenever. the Titles" is found
an order is Issued in11neasa tely for the de-
struction of all the trees. which must be
cut down and burned as rapidly as posi-
bic. Many fruit growers will be practl-
cally ruined. as to eradicate the disease
means the destruction OF the entire or
chard.
THE Titles" is so-called because the
leaves and fruit of the tree attacked
shrivel up. The peaches are about the
size of marbles. Growth is dwarfed and
the disease spreads from tree to tree with
great rapidity.

A High Tribute is Paid to the Conn

NEW ORLEANS. La. Sept. 1O.-The
Confederates of New Orleans apparently
wish to build their own Soldiers Home
without suggestion or assistance from the
Grand Army of the Republic.
AT least so think the members OF the
Army of the Tennessee. who to-day
formally discountenanced General Tor
rence's plan for aiding Alabama Con-
federates to build a home for INDECENT
Southern veterans. In set of resolu-
tions adopted as the sentiment OF the
camp a high tribute is paid to General
Terrence. but the offer of assistance is
declined in the following terms:
we cannot accept assistance from any
source save from our own people. 1t is
the duty OF the South, and of the South
alone, to provide for Confederate soldiers
who need assistance To permit others
to do so would be. in our judgment, both
unbecorning and wrong. There are cer-
tain duties which a high-minded people
cannot permit others TO perform. and
this is one OF them"
