The Story of id. o'Brisn.

Boys, let us tell you about j. D..
O'Brien. There's a picture in this
little gstory, perhaps a moral. The
news of his crime, his flight, capture
and sentence have been published in
this paper heretofore. But there is
something about his case that is diff
ferent from the usual forger and
criminal. Something that causes the
general public to inquire about him
particularly, while very few Of the
hundred or more criminals in the jail
are ever mentioned. Something that
caused the Judge to ask the prisoner
before the bar for sentence, why he
committed such crime. No doubt
it puzzled him as it did everyone else.
But there must always be a reason or
motive, and even O'Brien, himself
could not give the least excuse for
his actions.
O'Brien is young man, possibly
thirty years old, graduate Of a school
Of law, large Of stature and Of good
health. He came here last winter
and secured a position in the Office Of
Attorney Seymour Riddle, at good
salary, which gave him an opportuni-
ty to push to the front if he so de-
sired. He was trusted by his employ
er and his position gave him the
confidence Of other business men.
Apparently he was a gentleman His
manners and appearance would lead
one to believe that he bad been we'll
raised. But with an the advantages
and pleasant circumstances he began
a system Of kiting among the banks,
forged his employers name TO checks
and eventually skipped. The picture
In this story is one that is here in

town 1t was taken of MT. Riddles
Office few days before O'Brien left.
1t shows the other gentlemen seated
about the table, with open counte-
nances, while O'Brien's back is
turned and head bowed low. The
picture tells story itself. Since his
arrest he has tried to keep the news
from reaching his old home. Though
fallen from the society and conf
dence .of men, and sentenced to a
term Of imprisonment and hard labor,
he still has regard for those who viii
have to bear part Of his shame and
dishonor. There was no reason for
him committing the crime, but there
was a cause, and herein is the moral
Of the tale. He lived beyond his
means.

ROBBERS DYNA-
MITE EXPESSC CAR
Passengers and Crew Terror
lied by FusiIIade Of Shots
Robbers Escaped,
Associated Press

Associated Press
Seattle, Wash, Oct. s-The Great
Northern overland train leaving Seat
tie last night was held up and the
baggage and express car dynamIted
five miles from Ballard, at $40 p. m.
At least seven men we're engaged in
the robbery.
While the robbers were engaged on
the safe two boys, Frank Alfred and
Boland Gibbs, who had been riding on
the blind baggage, went through the
train attempting to hold up passen-
gers. They had no guns but took adj
vantage Of the timidity Of the passen-
gers while the shooting was going on
outside. The boys are now in jail at
Everett.
The train was tagged and as the
engineer slowed up two men presented
reyolyers TO his head When the train
stopped the baggage and express cars
were upcoupled by one Of the robbers
and the engineer instructed to pull
ahead, which he did for several hun
dred yards. Two of the robbers then
jumped of and forced the engineer
and fireman to follow to the baggage
car door. The messenger was COM
manded to open the door, and upon
his refusal to do so an extra heavy
charge Of dynamite was placed against
it and exploded.
The explosion wrecked the car and
the safe was then dynamited.
While some Of the robbers worked
on the safe Others kept up a constant
fire, evidently TO keep the passengers
and crew from coming to the rescue.
1t is believed no one was shot.
Charles Anderson, express messen-
ger, was slightly injured by the explo-
sion that wrecked his car.
After securing the contents of the
safe the robbers escaped in the dark
ness.
1t is not known how much booty
vas secured.

The KILLING
Ed Harlan Pleads Guilty TO
the Killing Of Lou Hunt.

| Ed Harlan who was arrested sun
day for the murder Of l.. Il. Hunt,
the young man whose body was found
in well near Miami last week, has
confessed the crime and it is stated
upon good authority that he has en-
tered a plea Of guilty. before thegrand
jury this afternoon.
The account Of the crime and the
leading up to the arrest Of the Harlan
boys, Lou and Ed, have already been
published in this paper.
Rube Harlan, brother Of Lou and
Ed was placed under arrest this after
mood by order Of District Attorney
Stanfeld, aud he will be held for in
Producing Intoxicating liqnor'
PLEADS SELF DEFENSE.
Ed Harlan states that Hunt came
to his house the night Of the killing
and began shooting at him and that
in self defense he struck Hunt over
the head three times with whisky
bottle, killing him, and that he took
the body to the we'll that night and
threw IL in He afterwards threw
his bloody clothes in the ditch, where
they were found as stated yeterday.
The Harlans are still before the
grand jury and Deputy Arthur Cham
berlin, who arrested them, is In Che
topa today to look up additional
evidence. Mr. Chamberlin deserves
credit for the manner In which he
has handled this work and il is possi-
bic that he will secure sufficient eyi-
dence TO upset Harlan's plea OF self
defense.
