Bedtime.

The short hand of the clock had

came to take Harold to bed. There was
a nice. swapping log on the CRATE, and
he was sitting cross-legged on the rug,

sit up little longer, although his eyes
blurred often and his neck ached from
trying to hold his head upright. But
he said he was not sleepy.

TRAIN
ROBBED
MERE BOYS MADE ALL
PASSENGERS DIG UP.
THE SEVEN ROBBERS ESCAPED
TWO MILES WEST OF
GREAT FALLS, MONT.

Great Falls, Mont, May 30.-The
Great Northern train from Shelby
Junction, due TO arrive here at 10
o'clock, was held up by masked rob-
bers at the stockyards, about two
miles west of the city, tonight. No
attempt was made on the express or
mail cars, but the robbers, who are
said to have been mere boys, went
through the passenger coaches and
made all the male passengers dig up"
They succeeded in getting somewhere
between 5000 and $500, the biggest
loss being by man who was COM
PEELED to give up 500. The night was
pitch dark and the train was stopped
by turning a switch, causing the en-
gineer to stop the train. AS soon as
the train stopped fusillade of shots
was heard, the purpose being the scar
ing of the train people and passengers.
One or two men jumped off the train
and one of these, William Dempsey of
Augusta, got bullet in his leg, break
ing it. He was made to get back on
the train. Conductor Jack Hayes got
bullet through his sleeve because he
did not obey quite fast enough and
was made to precede the two robbers
through the train while they collected
from the passengers. Ladies were
told that they would not be interfered
with, but every male passenger was
ordered to dig up at the point of gun
The robbers, of whom there are
said to have been four, escaped II

Youngest King in the World.

Portugal, that little sister country to
Spain, far across the waters, has just
crowned a new king. His name is Man
uel, and although he Is kings son, he
was not the crown prince. the eldest
boy. and therefore few thoughts of rul-
ing a kingdom in the near future en-
tered his head,t says a writer IN the
Children's Magazine.
We hear that he was happy prince,
with a great interest in music and
love of the beautiful, until the first OF
February Of this year. Then, without
a word Of warning, his father, King
Carlos of Portugal, and his brother, the
crown prince, Luiz Felipe, were killed
in the streets of Lisbon, while riding in
carriage with the queen and himself.
The loving mother, Queen Amelie,
tried to protect the crown prince from
the attack by bravely throwing herself
in front of him, but without avail. That
the present king, Manuel. was not
killed, together with the queen, is prob
| ably due to bungling on the part or
the assassins Manuel was slightly
| wounded. and the queen escaped In
jrry.
Young King Manuel II. Is only Is,
and was born November Is, 1889, at Lis
bon. To think what tragic change Tor
the infante Manuel to lose his father
and brother in minute, and from
carefree boyhood to step in one moment
to the kingship Of an ancient race. Ihat
he will make good king seems proba
Bile. It Is recalled that King Manuel l..
who reigned in Portugal from l40o tt
1921. was known as King Manuel the
Fortunate. and that his reign was very
prosperous.
Dom Manuel II. is the youngest SOY
,reign of Europe. He assumes the GU
ties of king with little less trainih;
than his brother had. His first WORDS
to his counselors were, Il am wlthou
knowledge or experience. place my
self in your hands, counting upon you
patriotism and wisdom"
The king, as Prince Manuel. duke
Beta, has sufficient names for the Who'll

Admiral Rojestvensky, who commanded
I the Inflated Russian fleet which was an
initiated by the Japanese i'm the Sea of
Japan in May. 1905, died here last night
from heart trouble.
1t is believed that the heart affection
resulted from injuries received by Ad-

Sea of japan.
Sinovi Petrovitch ROjestvensky was
about 90 years of age. and for many
years bore the reputation of being one
of the most cool-headed and scientific
naval officers in the Russian service.
He was Admiral AleXieff's second in COM
mand of the Russian squadron in the far
east in the RussO-Japanese war. In 1892
he was promoted to the rank of rear ad-
miral and made an aide-de-camp to the
emperor. and succeeded Admiral Avelan
as chief of the naval headquarters staff
and head of the Intelligence department
of the Russian army. In this capacity
he supervised the equipment of the sec

grievance.
The company gained some points
principally regarding the making up OF
