KILLS THE ENGINEER AND
GETS THE REGISTERED MAIL
He Announces That This Is Not His
First Job-Officers and Bloodhounds
on the Track of the Robber and
Liberal Reward for His Capture Is
Offered.

HELENA. Mont, Oct. 24.-The east
bound Northern Coast limited mail on
the Northern Pacific railway was held
up and robbed three miles east of
Bear Mouth about 4 o'clock this morn
ing. The trainmen saw one man and
think the robbery may have been COM
mitted by him without assistance. The
train was in charge of Conductor
Quinn. The combination baggage and
express acr was blown to pieces and all
the registered mail was taken. Supt.
Horn gives the details of the robbery,
so far as known, in the following dis
patch to General Agent A. D. Edgar, of
Helena:
Train No. 2, Conductor Quinn, En-
gineer O'Neill was held up three miles
east of Bear Mouth. Quinn reports the
baggage car, No. 2,319, was blown to
pieces. Engineer O'Neill was shot and
has since died. The robbers went
through the mail car, taking all the
registered mail, but got nothing else.
They dynamited the combination bag
gage and express car. Will transfer
baggage and express to box car at
Drummond and will take it to Butte.
Am ready to start a special from Deer
Lodge with bloodhounds and as soon
as we can locate the direction taken
by the robbers will have posses at
Deer Lodge, Missoula and Anaconda
ready to take the trail of the robbers.
Think our chances are good. So far
as seen there was but one man, who
told the train electrician if anyone
wanted to know who he was to say he
was the fellow that held up the South
ern Pacific train south of Portland
about a year ago."
Deputies Busy.

ance possible. Several deputies have
gone to the scene. A telegram from
Missoula states that the robber wore
a mask and that a burlap was tied
about his clothes, completely covering
them.
A telegram from Thomas Cooper.
general manager of the Northern Pa
cific, states that the company offers
$4,000 reward for the capture of the
robber, dead or alive. If there were
two in the robbery $4,000 will be paid
for either one and if more than one
$4,000 will be paid for the capture of
all of them or $4,000 for the capture of
each.
The robbery was committed sixty
four miles west of Helena in an ex-
ceedingly rough section of the coun-
try. Unless the robber follows the line
of the railway he will be compelled to
go over almost impossible mountains
and through a sparsely settled coun-
try, where it will be difficult for him
to procure food.
Boarded Train at Water Tank.
Tt is believed the robber boarded the
blind baggage when the train stepped at
a water tank near Bear Mouth After the
robbery the bandit. taking one Of the
train crew, named Berry, for a compan-
ion, marched down the track without
molesting the passengers.
After going about mile and half he
told Berry goodbye, and took to the
woods. The robber is described as a
short, heavy-set man, stoop -shouldered,
dressed like laboring man. but wearing
a light cap and light shoes.

and form loop in it about one and a
half inches long, afixing the ends to
the ball with little wax or, better
still, by forcing the ends into the cork.
Now, pass the forefnger of your right
hand through the hair loop, letting the
ball lie on the palm when you show it.
Place your lett hand over the right
and at the same timeN separate the
forefinger from the second of your
right. Quickly push the ball with the
thumb OF the right hand between the
open fingers. The ball falls at the
back of the hand, which you keep in
such a position that the company can
not see the ball hanging behind. Re.
move the left hand closed as If it
contained the ball. Then open the
hand and show it empty. With a lit
tie dexterity you may with a quick
jerk throw the ball over your hand
from the back into the palm and show
that it has returned. For this you
must make a movement as If catching
it In the air. Now break off the hair
and give the ball to the company for
examination.

Why We Shake Hands

To snake hands with a person ia
rightly regarded as a token of amity
but very few know now this custom
arose.
According to French ethnologist
whenever two men met in former
times they were accustomed to hold
up their right hands in front of them
as sign mat they had no intention OF
attacking each other. This mark of
confidence, however, did not prove
sufficient in all cases, for man NAV
hold up his right hand and yet, If he
keeps it closed, may have a weapon
concealed in it, and, therefore. it b..
came the custom for the two right
hands to grasp each other, as only
thus could full assurance be given that
no weapon was concealed in either of
them.
Formerly, therefore, this gesture,
now the token of loyalty and friend.
ship, was one of reciprocal distrust.

Distance Apart to Plant Trees.

On this question there seems to be
little consensus of opinion. All kinds
Of advice are given. The list of dis
tances apart of planting one year is
denied by its makers the next. The
reason for this lies in the great d.
versity of conditions. One man said
to the writer that be had planted his
plum trees nine feet apart. Another
said that fifteen was necessary. But
there are many varieties of plum trees
and they have different habits of
growth. There are also many kinds
of soils, and each kind varies as to-
the amount Of plant food it contains.
1t is safe to say that no rule can be
laid down. 1t is equally safe to adj
wise that the distances between trees
be as large as practicable. It is bet
ter to have too much room than too
little. When trees are very close to-
gether, the crossing roots make all
cultivation difficult. Close planting
also increases the amount of pruning
necessary to get good results. What
ever the tree be, give it enough feed
ing ground. s
