Land Sold at s1o7 an Acre.

Watertown, S. D., Dec. -. = D. G.
Thomas sold his fine 16O-acre farm
north Of this city just outside of the
limits to man from Indiana for $1O7
an acre. This is believed to be the
highest price ever paid for land in the
state. The new owner intends to plat
the land in lots and sell them as resi-
dence sites. The land is situated
just outside the limits, but it is close
enough so that at future time the
new owner should sell lots for resi-
dences.

ROBBERS HOLD up Mp. TRAIN
COMPEL ENGINEER TO CUT
LOOSE THE EXPRESS AND
MAIL. CARS.

| North Yakima, Wash, Dec. 1.-two
robbers held up the North Coast linn
tied at Hillside siding at Yakima can
yon, eleven miles north of here Satur-
day evening. They evidently boarded
the train while at this place, as the
train did not stop until it was com
PEELED to do so by the robbers at Hill
side siding. A boy is being held at
Ellensburg who was on the blind bag
gage. He says the two men got on
top of the mail car at this place and
rode to Hillside siding. At that point
they climbed down from the car to the
rear of the tender while the train was
running at full speed. The engineer
and fireman did not see them till they
pointed guns into their faces and de-
manded them to stop the train. The
fireman was ordered back to cut loose
the express and mail cars, which he
did. The engineer then pulled the
two cars about a half mile up the road,
he and the fireman being taken back
to the express car. The engineer was
ordered TO
Place a Stick Of Dynamite
under the door. This eXi oded, but
two shots were necessary to blow
open the door. The engineer was
forced to enter the car ahead of one
of the robbers, and five shots We're
used before the two safes We're blown
open. After gathering up the valua-
bles and placing them in his pocket
the robber jumped out of the car and,
joining his companion, the two started
down the track toward the passenger
coaches. Yesterday morning a glove
was found on the hillside and two
pairs of overalls were picked out of
the river. AS each man was dressed
in overalls it is believed they discard
ed them and then boarded the passen-
ger train end went with it to Ellens-
burg or farther west. The sheriff S
posse has not yet found any clue to
the identity of the two men.
Safes Contents Ruined.
st. Paul, Dec. 10. - Details of the
hold-up of Northern Pacific train No.
1 and the dynamiting of the two safes
of the express company at Hillside,
Wash, on Saturday evening were
given out yesterday by General Man
ager H. ]. Horn of the Northern Pa
cific.
No estimate of the loss to the COM
pany can be given as yet, Mr.. Horn
says, but it is believed that the rob-
bers themselves got nothing, as the
entire contents of both the large and
small safes were completely ruined by
the explosion.
A posse with bloodhounds was set
on the trail at once. 1t is supposed
that the men escaped in boat on the
river, which runs through the canyon
at the point where the hold-up oc.
Cured. The Northern Pacific Express
company has a standing offer of re-
ward for the capture of any hold-up
men, and officials of the road are con
fident that both of these parties will
be captured.
