prepossessing and confidence inspiring
mein who conned Thomas Brett, an oil
man, out of roll of money amounting
to 5000 on a Northwestern train the
other night between this city AMI

name, and got off the train hera.
"Jim" is youth about 23 years Of
age, smooth faced, of dark complex
ion, 8 feet 3 inches in height ana
weighs about $50 pounds. 1t has
been rumored that a man who fits
this description left here the night IF

band of thieves that make Omaha their
headquarters.
After losing his roll Brett got off
the train at Clinton. He left there

lowing story:
Five years ago Brett left his home
in the county Of Sligo, western Ire
land, to come to the United States

to keep his three children from want.
His wife died sixteen years ago. After
reaching the shores of America Brett
went west to Butte Mont and Sc
cured employment on the railroads.
During the interval that elapsed since
then he has been working in Mon
tana and Nebraska, living frugally and
sending the greater portion of his earn
ings to the loved ones across the At
lantic. Lately the old man has been
suffering with rheumatism and is no
longer able to work. He managed TO
save a couple OF hundred dollars ami
with this amount started for his home
intending to take passage In New York
for Queenstown. Brett lost everything
of value with the exception OF his
ticket to Chicago which he carried In
an inside pocket When he left the
train and asked assistance OF the po-
lice he was nearly distracted and talked
of committing suicide. The police took
the poor man under their protection,
provided him with shelter and food and
did everything in their power to COM
forr him. They telegrap hed to neph-
sw of Bretts in Wood River. Neb.y of
the plight OF the old gentleman and
appraised the police in other cities OF
the robbery, furnishing them with de-
scription Of the thief.
