time county court day-and the best
of them at that. The weather was fine.
and the crowd the largest seen here

and better stock, also, than at any
previous s.tles.
The street parade. from eleven to
twelve o'clock, was made up of alarge
number Of good horses, mules, single
and double teams, driven To wagons
and buggies.
The Tazewell Band cnliVencd the
occasion with good music, and the day
seemed more like some celebration
than plain stock Sales Day
While the sales were not as large as
the day seemed 60 promise quite n
number of horses and mules changed
hands at good prices.

The police are finding us out.
Officer l.. H. Pinney, of Erie, Pa,
painted his house Devoe, perhaps two
or three years ago-the tale don't
tell when-the painter objected, but
Pinney insisted.
Two neighbors of Pinney's have
painted since: one lead-and-oil, the
othersome other paint, don't know
what.
But officer Pinney lives in the incest
painted house of the three. The rest
Of the story we don't know: what it

2CHICAO, Oct 24.--Threatened by an
anonymous letter writer with the blow
ing up of one Of its passenger trains
unless it paid $4,000, the Lake Shore road
tonight sent a dummy train filled with
armed men out of Chicago, and at a
point in Indiana designated by the
bandits the train was stopped, but no
one was found in the neighborhood.
AS soon as the train slowed up SUI
perlntendent Wilson with score of
United States deputy marshalS and
railroad detectives leaped from the
coaches and began a hunt that is still
in progress. ------
Three posses are searching the Indi-
ana marshes in the vicinity of Pine,
Miller and Aetna.
Two employees of the Aetna Powder
works have been arrested. Their arrest
was caused by the finding in their room
of a bottle of nitro Elycerne.
The, bandit in his letter Instructed the
railroai men to carry the money to
him on the limited express, which
leaves Chicago at $50 in the evening.
Il viii be at the side of the tracks,"
he wrote, somewhere west of Pine.
When the limited approaches me l
will fire two shots from my revolver.
Have tf.e money in bag and drop it
off the hind end of the train If you
don't do this l say your train will be
blown to atoms with dynamite
Three letters in all were received
railroad officials turned the matter over
to the United States postal authorities,
who planned the dummy" train to

LOCOMOTIVE SLIDES
INTO THE OHIO
Ry Associated Press.

Dy ASSOcldtSN IECSo.
PITTSBURG, Oct. a.
Running at a speed estimated
at fifty miles an hour the fast
train between Cleveland and
Pittsburg on the Pennsylvania
railroad, known as the "Cleve-
land Flyer" was side-swiped
by the caboose of freight
train near Bellevue station
shortly after noon today.
Five train men were injured
in the wreck, all of whom will
recover.
A score of local passengers
were cut by flying glass, but
none was seriously hurt. They
were brought to this city on
a wreck train that reached the
scene eighteen minutes after
the accident, and proceeded on
their journey.
The collision with the ca
boose threw the engine down
an embanlSment thirty feet
high and it slid into the Ohio
river.
