TRAIN HELD UP IN ST. PAUL.
Masked Bandits Loot a Burlington
Freight Train.

st. Paul, Feb. 8.-Three masked
highwaymen held up freight train
in the Como yards at s o. clock yestet-
day morning and got away with a lot
of silks. A brakeman who interrupted
them was forced to drop his lantern
and hold up his hands until the BAN
dts made escape.
The train, No. 951 of the Burling-
ton had stopped in the yards to take
water. The highwaymen who ap-
peared to know what they were do
ing broke the seal on. the cars con-
tanning the silks and proceeded to get
away with the valuables. They were
just cleaning up the last of the ship
ment when Brakeman Wyland> saw
some one alongside the train.
The brakeman went back to see
what was the trouble, not suspecting
that he had robbers to deal with. He
was covered by revolver before he
realized what was being done. The
thieves made him drop his lantern
and hold up his hands. They threat
ened him with instant death if he at
tempted to give any alarm. He then
waited until he thought the thieves
were out of range and then gave the
alarm to the conductor and the yard
men.
The silks were consigned to Canada
and the value of goods taken is not
known.

Note the strange contrast in those wor-
en- there ., u
The one with white, the one with golden
hair;
Mother and daughter-yes. See how the
eyes
OF one look on the world with glad sur
prise,
And find it fresh and fair!
But see the others eyes, with wisdom
fraught,
Wearied Of everything, expecting naught-
There's innocence and knowledge for
you! Who
Could dream those eyes of gray and eyes
of blue
From the same household brought?
All! But the tragic meaning Of 1t, flung
By those two glances at us, without
tongue
To speak, is his-sophisticated, cold,
1t is the girls eyes that are wise and
old
The mothers that are young!

NIGHT RIDERS TERRORIzE
DESTROY TENNESSEE BARNS AND
WOUND SEVERAL.
Twenty Thousand Pounds of Tobacco
Are Consumed by Band Of
Armed Men.

Adams, Tenn, Feb. 8.-Night riders,
well armed and mounted, visited the
farms of Hugh G. Lawrence and Wash
T. Wicker, within three miles of this
place, destroyed the barns on both
farms, together with 10000 pounds of
tobacco, shot and wounded Lawrence
and his son Bradley Lawrence, and
whipped negro named Motlow un.
mercifully.
The riders first visited the farm of
Lawrence. He and his son were in
the barn loading their tobacco on wag-
ons and heard the night riders com
ing. They came out of the barn and
started toward the house, and when
within IS or 20 yards of the house
they met ten or dozen of the riders
and at once opened fire on them. They
returned the fire, wounding Lawrence
in the cheek and hand, and his son in
the leg.
The raiders retreated at the Law
rences' first fire, but rallied with some
ten or fifteen reenforcements and re.
newed the attack, firing 70 or 80 shots
through the windows Of his house,
where he and son had retreated after
emptying their weapons. The Law
rences returned the fire, but no casual.
ties occurred. Mrs. Lawrence, who
was in the house, narrowly escaped be-
Ing struck by the flying bullets.
The night riders then went to the
barn, and after shooting horse
placed dynamite under two wagon
loads Of tobacco and blew them to
pieces. The barn was burned, togeth
er with about $4,000 pounds of to-
bacco. The riders then went to the
farm Of Wash Wicker, where they
burned bis barn and about 5000
pounds Of tobacco. They found a
negro named Motlow on this farm and
they assaulted and beat him up. in an
unmerciful manner. Lawrence and
Wicker both belong to the Hill Billie
class, never having joined the union

JEALOUS, and
IS shot DEAD
A DULUTH HUSBAND IS KILLED
THROUGH INTERFERENCE
BY HIS WIFE.
She Warns the Boarder. The Hus.
band Starts to Kill the Boarder
with Hatchet and Instead is Him
self Killed.

Duluth, Minn., Feb. 10.-Henry Bo.
lot early Sunday morning shot and
almost instantly killed Marquis Chir-
bouno at whose house he was 8
boarder,
tits said Chirbouno was jealous of
Bo1ot, imagining he was paying too
much attention to Mrs. Chirbouno.
If it had not been for Mrs. Chirbou-
no, Bolot would have been killed in
stead of her husband.
Bolot had retired for the night and
was asleep, Chirbouno sat up in the
kitchen until late. He was smoking
his pipe and was silent and depressed.
Mrs. Chirbouno and the ten-year-old
daughter of Mr.. Bolot had retired to
a room together for the night.
Mrs. Chirbouno was awakened late
to hear her husband moving about in
the hall mutterins that he would kill
somebody. She got up quietly and
peered through the door of her room
and from there she could see her hus-
band stealthily entering Bolot's room.
Chirbouno had hatchet in his hand.
Quietly as possible the woman ran
up behind her husband and caught
hold of the arm that held the hatchet.
Chirbouno uttered an exclamation of
anger and tried to throw her off, The
room was lighted dimly by lighu
Turned low.
Bolot, awakened, and taking in the
situation, reached for revolver that
lay on the dresser. Observing that
Bolot was awake and prepared to de-
fend himself, the woman let go of her
husband and ran fearing that he
would strike her with the hatchet in
his rage at being interrupted in his
designs on Bolot.
Chirbouno then approached Bolot
threateningly not fearing the revolver
apparently and Bolot shot him infict-
ing a wound from which he died
quickly.

KING AND PRINCE
Laid IN THE TOMB
FlNkLZAcT IN BLOODY TRAGEDY
OF PORTUGAL TAKES PLACE
IN LISBON.
Funeral Is mpressive-ManueI and
the Queens Unable to Follow Coffin
on Foot = Franco Arrives at
Bordeaux.

Lisbon, Feb. 8.-The simple but i'm
pressive funeral services Saturday were
the final act in the bloody tragedy Of
the royal family. All the arrangements
for the solemn march through the city
and the ceremonies at the Church of
San Vincente were carried out.
Although it is the ancient custom in
Portugal for the new sovereign to
walk behind the coffin of the dead
monarch, as King Carlos did when his
father was buried, neither of the
queens nor the boy king was able to
endure this trying ordeal. Additional
troops were brought into Lisbon to
accompany the cortege and line the
route of march.
Many Floral Tributes.
The last of the special foreign mis-
sions to attend the funerals arrived
in Lisbon Friday night and hundreds
of floral tributes were received at the
palace. Practically every government
was represented. Charles Page Bryan,
the American minister, sent two
wreaths, one to King Manuel, with ex-
pressions of the most profound sorrow
of President Roosevelt and the Ameri-
can people, and the other to Queen
Amelie, conveying the heartfelt re-
grets of. the American nation. The
bodies of the king and the crown
prince were viewed by the members
of the diplomatic corps Friday after
noon as they lay in the royal chapel.
Every hour during the day masses
were said at the affairs on the palace
chapel and, according to tradition,
priests prayed before the caskets,
sprinkled them with holy water and
burned incense. The principal mass
Of .the day was celebrated by the
Papal Nuncio. It was attended by
King Manuel and Queen Amelie and
the members Of the diplomatic corps
in uniform and the gentlemen and
ladies of the court. After the service
had ended all those who attended the
mass viewed the bodies Of the mon
arch and his son. The public was not
admitted to the chapel.
Franco at Bordeaux.
Bordeaux, Feb. s.-senhor Franco
arrived here Friday. The former pre-
mier of Portugal brought a large
amount Of baggage with him. A
group of local newspaper men awaited
him at the station, but when they
stepped up he waved them away with
a gesture of WEAKNESS and ignored
tho questions they asked him. He
walked quickly to his hotel.
The face of the man is haggard and
he appears to be. pre-occupied. He
looks constantly to the right and to
the left, as If he felt he should be pre-
pared to forestall some impending
uhysical danger.
