Another Good Word For Alfalfa.

For feeding purposes there is no
plant that is so promising as alfalfa
first, because Of its high feeding
value; second, because of its rapid
growth and consequently large yield,
and, third, because 1t is a perennial
and may be harvested from year to
year without expense Of reseeding or
OF cultivation. Experiments thus far
conducted seem to indicate that this
crop can be grown wherever good corn
can be grown.-Dr. L. B. Voorhees,

ROBBERS LOOT A TRAIN.
Great Northern Overland Held Up
Near Seattle, Wash.


q,ba Great Northern overland train
leaving Seattle at 500 Monday night,
was held up and the express car dyna-
mited about FIVE miles from Ballard, at
$40 d. m. 1t was II O'Clock before the
train nulled into Edmonds, and meager
reports were sent to the Seattle office
Sheriff Smith and a posse, armed with
rifles. shotguns and revolvers, and led
by trained bloodhounds, went i'll pursuit
Of the band of robbers. Two boys who
attempted to rob the passengers While
the adult bandits dynamited the through
safe in the express car are III jail. Mean
time it is reported that the highWaymen
obtained a big shipment of gold from
the Alaskan mines. The amount stolen
is estimated all the way from $1,000 to
100000.
Three men, well dressed in rain coats
and wearing SLOUGH hats, did the work.
Conductor Grants report of the holdup
shows that at least seven men were IN
the gang that committed the robbery
The conductor believes three or four OF
the gang were further down the track,
but did not take any part, possibly be-
cause the train had stopped too soon.
When once inside the car the robbers
began dynamiting, the first explosion
being of six sticks, the second OF twelve,
and the third of eighteen. No one was
injured seriously, although continual
fire of revolvers was kept up. After
securing the contents of the safe the
three men started off in an easterly di-
rection.
The train was tagged and as the engi-
npar slowed nm two or three men climbed
over the tender and pointed revolvers at
his head When the train stopped two
of the robbers jumped off, making the
engineer and fireman follow, and all
marched to the express car door. open
the door," the robber commanded the
messenger. He refused and the robber
placed an extra heavy charge of dyna-
mite against it, which he exploded. The
explosion tore the car almost to pieces
The safe was then dynamited. The
train was delayed two and a half hours
and then was pulled into Edmonds, max
ing a brief report before proceeding to
Everett
While the robbers were engaged on the
safe, two who had been riding on the
blind baggage slipped off and went
through the train, attempting to hold up
the passengers. They had no guns, but
took advantage of the timidity of the
passengers while the shooting was going
on outside. The boys assert they never
met the holdups until they got on the
train and are in no way connected with
their work. The idea to hold up the
passengers occurred to them after the
explosion.

and that then, with lesson taught the
revolutionists, matters will so on as be-
fore. There are leaders of both sides,
however, who say openly that If the
American flag is ever carried to Cuba
again it will remain. There are many
members of the liberal party-some OF
them the most influential men in the
island-who wish the United States to
intervene in Cuba for the sole purpose
of ultimate annexation.
If Cuba became involved in civil war
it would be endless, in all human proba-
bility, unless the American government
landed troops and punished the rebels,
or, as they would call themselves for
sympathy-making' sake, "patriots." His

Cuba would be guerrilla warfare-the

Pat Grove, wanted by the Omaha po-
lice for kidnapping the son of Edward
Cudahy, the millionaire packer in 1900,
was arrested in Butte, Mont, Monday
night. Grove acknowledged he was the
fugitive, becoming alarmed when he
feared the authorities were going to
shoot him.
Capt. McGrath and Detective McIner-
ney of the Butte police made the arrest,
placing the muZzles of their reyolvers
against his stomach as he emerged from
a saloon in the tenderioin section. Grove
declared he would return to Omaha
without requisition papers. He cursed
bitterly at his arrest, expressing chagrin
at his apprehension in town the size
of Butte, when he as he said, had tray-
eled the world over and evaded capture
in all the large cities. Grove has two
brothers in Montana, one living in Butte
and the other at Great Falls
A friend of Grove tipped" the police
as to his presence i'll the city and his
arrest followed after photographs of the
fugitive had been secured from Omaha.

Mr.. Mitchell said, in response to q
suggestion that large supplies of coal
were now being stored away in anticipa-
ton of a strike, that he did not take
any stock in that story. This is the
time of year." said he, when coal is
always stored in large quantities.
Mr.. Mitchell says the response to his
efforts to increase the strength of his
organization has far exceeded his eXpec-
tations. The coal situation was not dis
cussed with the President, he said.

er's face-once before, when she had
said things against Kitten. In one mo-
ment Roy was transformed, his eyes
flashed, his brow contracted, storm OF
passion broke out all over the smooth,
young face. He reminded her of his
father.
"How dare you," he said hoarsely,
chow dare you speak such a thing OF
her, she who is as pure as an angel, as
holy as a saint What can you be like
to venture to smirch the whiteness OF her
name by your vile SANDERS q
Margaret fell back a step. Almost
it seemed to her as if Roy would have
struck her, the rage in his face was SO
terrible. This boy-her boy, who had
been as a child to her, was boy no
| longer but man, and a man with
whom it was not safe to meddie. lie
frightened her.
White with anger, and incapable of
| replying, save in blind torrent Of strong
and disjointed words, Roy broke away
and betook himself to Felicia. He sprang
| upstairs three steps at a time, and burst
into his cousins drawing room.
Mrs. Talbot was sitting with her. AS
he entered Felicia uttered cry OF sur
prise and delight, and ran eagerly for
| ward to meet him.
ooh, Roy! Roy! how delighted l am;
why have you been away? But, OF
course, now you will be able to explain
| where you have been. How glad l am
that you have come back; now all these
horrid, wicked scandals will be stopped
| Did l not tell you, Gertrude, that it was
not trueW
"Well, that remains to be seen, my
dear Felicia" answered Gertrude airily
''Sir Roy has not cleared himself yet
you see, to say the least, it is unfortu-
nate that he and Mrs. Desmond should
have been both missing on the same
day. 1t remains to be explained, OF
course
"Why on earth should Roy's absence
| be connected with Mrs. Desmond" cried
Felicia impatiently; ''or who indeed car
say that he has been away at all?''
"Why, my dear'-docking them off OF
her fingers, three dinners to which he
was engaged, and at which he never turn

| This was true, and Roy for the first
time recollected these broken engage

carelessness. He looked from one to the
other of the ladies in absolute dismay
he began to perceive in what light his
conduct appeared to the world.

CHAPTER MI.

In all his life hoy never hated MIS-.
Talbot so cordially and so intensely as
he did when she uttered that short laugh.
1t was a laugh that meant so much.
Contemptuous disbelief in mankind, tri-
umphant confirmation of the suspicious
of the world, the ruin of Kittens fair
name, all seemed to be comprised in that
short. sneering outburst of ill-timed hi
larity.
Felicia, on the contrary, seemed op-
pressed with despair at her cousins most
unexpected answer She sank down into
a chair with look of helpless distress,
and tears gathered thickly in her eyes.
"Oh, Roy" she cried don't, don't say
that, it cannot be true-don't say it."
"Why should l not say its" he an
swered a little defiantly, because of that
other woman who sat by with a sheer
upon her lips, ''it is quite true. [ do
know where Mrs. Desmond is now. Why
should l deny it? She was in great
trouble. She sent for me because l am
her oldest friend, and 1 helped her to
leave town and to go to place where she
wished to stay for a little time. -
''And where is that, pray?'
THAT is her secret and mine' he an
swered frowning And then Mrs. Talbot
laughed again.
She got up and shook out her skirts,
and prepared to take her leave of Fe-
licia.
1T won't wash, Sir Roy, it won't
wash! she said with odious laugh still
upon her lips Twill it, Felicia, dear?"
Il don't see why you should doubt my
cousins word" said Felicia, rather dog
gedly; there is nothing extravaganza in
what he has told us. He is Mrs. Des.
mond's oldest friend. If she was in trou-
BILE it was quite natural that she should
send to him"
And then Gertrude laughed again and
took her leave of the cousins
There was one thing which Roy I'M
derstood, and of which Gertrude and the
world knew nothing, and that was the
popularity of Kittens character, which
had led her to do thing which, to the
eyes of others, was foolish and repre-
hensible; but which was in entire accord
ance with the natural simplicity of her
own mind. Even Felicia, who was affec-
Tomato and sympathetic, could not enter
into this.
Roy" she said to him, when the door
had closed upon Gertrude, this is toe
dreadful. How is this business to be
bettered? How are these two people to
be brought together again.
Il have no power to interfere" he
said sadly. Kitten is no child. I can
only do as she tells me to do
Now to Felicia, it seemed that Kitten
was not only child, but also an OK
eeedingly foolish one; but knowing Roy's
infatuation, she forebore to express her
opinion.
DO YOU think of the husband, poor
Mr.. Desmond? 1t is dreadful for him."
But Roy could not be brought to pity
Brian. The man who had dared to win
the deep love of Kittens soul, and to
give her back nothing but the empty
husks of his life, was to him an object
