Sites Stage Robbery.

The Grangv lille stage which left
Sites was held up by masked man in
the timber about amile and half from
Sites. The highwayman was armed
with rifle and revolver. After
several emphatic demands the stage
driver, Billy McAvian, pulled up his
six horses and the passengers lined up
with arms out stretched. They were
then ordered to throw off their coats
and vests and turn the pockets of their
pants.
Pocket books and loose money were
scatterd all over the ground, and after
being gathered up by the robber he or
dered the passengers to turn their backs
while he proceeded to search the
coach.
One passenger claimed he thew wad
of $3.50 under the seat, and, as it was
not found after the holdup, it is sup
posed it was taken, together with about
$40O that was willingly given up.
A diamond ring that one of the pass
engers put IN his coat pocket was also
gone.
A posse was organized as soon as the
news reached Sites, but efforts proved
fruitless.
The highwayman made an endeavor
to get the express box. but was told by
Driver McAvin that there was no box
on board. The highwayman lighted
matches and endeavored to locate the
box, but was unsuccessful. The robber
showed nerve and worked slowly and
cody during the robbery. Driver Nc
Alvin refused to stop the stage until the
robber yelled, "Stop or I'll blow your
d-m head off,. The drivers bluff al
so saved the express box, which, it is
stated, contained several thousand dol
liars,

the arrival of man with whom he
was intimately acquainted the prisoner
acknowledged that he was William
Hooper Young.
He consented to 60 back to New York
without the Formally of requisition
papers and will be taken there.

GERS which followed Young's admis-
sion of his identity he is said to have
made a confession regarding the crime.
The exact nature Of his confession
was not made public. 1t was said that
Young had spoken of an accomplish,
but one of the officers when questioned
about this replied:
If you say simply that confession
has been made you will tell the whole
story.

Mysteries of Railroad Time Cards.
How perplexing they are, those great
big folders, that tells so much about
trains, distances, connections and all
the other information travellers need to
know. And how hard to grasp the in
formation they convey.
None of us can read them intelligent
ly, and some can't read them at all.
They have needed fixing, and that Elk
ing" was applied this month by the
Northern Pacific railroad when they
gave the public little time card that
can be tucked away in gentlemen s
vest pocket or in ladies' purse. Get
one and see how simple and helpful it
really is to the traveller. It's little, but
