The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure in all
its stages and that is Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the pa
tient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature
in doing its work. The proprie-
tors have so much faith in its cura-
tive powers, that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that
it fails to cure. Send for list of

ROBBERS SIGNAlLED
THE TRAIN TO STOP

The robbers signallcd the train to stop,
and when it halted they uncouplcd the
front part OF the train including the en-
gines, mail car and express car and ran
them ahead of the rear coaches. They
were armed and they drove the trainmen
off and blew up the express car. Then
they dynamited a small safe in the express
car and appropriated its contents. The
railroad people gave out at first that there
was nothing in the safe, but it was stated
later that the safe contained several hun
dred dollars, and probably several thou
sand.
Some of the trainmen watched the rob
bers while they were engaged in dyna-
hitting the car, but they were not armed
and could offer no resistance. After loot
ing the express safe the robbers made oil
toward the fiat below the railroad track.
1t is believed that they hitehed their
team to a post on the Nine Mile road di-
rectly below the railroad track, and climb
ed the rugged hillside TO the track, and
after robbing the train went back to the
buggy and drove directly into town
Bloodhounds from Deer Lodge were tried
with the footprints and the buggy tracks,
but would not follow such a trail.

Pacific railroad six miles from Butte and
three miles this side of Homestake last
night was the talk OF the town today.
There is frst-cass evidence to show that
the robbers were two in number and that
they drove out to the scene of the robbery
in buggy and, after stopping the train
and looting the express and mail car, turn

again.
Sheriff Quinn, who secured the flat and

PASSENGERS DID NOT
SEE THE PROCEEDINGS

The robbers took the engine and the ex-
press and mail cars about an eighth of a
mile ahead of the passenger and other
coaches, and for that reason the passengers
did not see much of what was going on.
Division Superintendent ID. Il. Boyle OF
Livingston was on one OF the sleepers and
he was awakened by the explosion when
the hold-up took place, and he came out on
the Pullman and saw something of the
operations of the robbers at a distance but
