Ell Paso. Texas, June 10.-Shortly
before midnight last night eastbound
train No. of the El Paso and South
western Railroad was held up by a
lone bandit who herded the occupants
of the tourist sleeper into a private
car attached to the rear of the train,
compelled them to deposit their money
and valuables in heap and made his
escape with the plunder across the
desert toward the mountains. Rough
estimates place the value of his haul
at several thousand dollars. The hold
up occurred one mile east of Robsart,
N. NJ, near Corrizozo. At this point
the robber, who had boarded the train
at CorriZozo, covered the Pullman

Washington, June 10.-That con-

weeks is the opinion of many mem
bers of both sides, following the re-
port that conferees on the railroad

Of the city when things looked so good.
When the first apartment house was
built many people wondered how on
earth the man was going to rent his
rooms. Now there are scores OF apart
ment houses, all filled, and many more
in course of erection. The same is true
OF the hotels and office buildings. The
explanation is simple enough-people of

CARE OF CRIMINALS.

Father Dennis Kelly preached at the
vesper services in st. Mary's Cathedral
Sunday evening and during the course
of his sermon took occasion TO CON-
ment upon the good fare given crimi-
nails undergoing punishment for their
offenses against society. Father Kiely
does not believe in pampering the con-
victs under sentence or preventing the
law from taking its course in the case
of murderers. Among other things he
said:
ITO preserve and perpetuate that
peace there is no need OF any anti
capital punishment societies to prevent
the gallows or the rifle from doing Jus
tioe. or Of criminals aid societies to
make prison environments almost as
desirable as a hotel. yet the law of
Christ wishes to secure peace for all
criminals, and is offended If they are
treated with undue harshness or sever
ity. The peace which Christ strove to
establish meant TO prevent punishment
by stopping crime.
1T does not interfere with justice,
which must be set asids to crafty SEN
timent or maudlin feeling. The protec-
tion of society and the safety Of the
state must not be jeopardized or sacrl-
feed for individuals. Charity does not
require this. but IL demands that the
soul shall, If possible, be saved. II
sends its ministers 10 the prison cell to
enable the prisoner to make his peace
with God and man. 1t gives ali an op-
portunity of sharing in that peaoe
which Christ bequeathed. What rich
legacy that peace isl"
There are two sides to this question,
OF course. Many good men and women
believe that prisoners should be treated
with the utmost consideration, upon the
theory that their detention is not for
the purpose OF punishment but for their
reformation. Some OF them also believe
that rnder no circumstances should a
murderer expiate his crime upon the
gallcws. In some states, Kansas, fol
instance. capital punishment has been
abolished. Recently two foul muir
ders have been committed In this city
by footpads One Of the murderers has
been tried. convicted and sentenced to
imprisonment for life. The others are
yet to face the jury. Public sentiment
has been aroused and Father Kelly is
probably not alone in his view that
criminals of all classes are treated with
too much leniency.

PASSING OF MENELIk.

News came the other day that Meme
Xix, king of Abyssinia, had been gath
cred unto his fathers. AS In the case
of Mark Twain. the report seems to
have been greatly exaggerated. Meme
Tx is stin alive. though suffering with
an incurable disease. So it is only a
question of a very short time when the
announcement of his passing will prove
true. In ancient times, Abyssinia was
known as the empire of Ethiopia and
cut some figure in the world. In the
sixth century the Abyssinians con-
quered Yemen in Arabia and held 1t
sixty-seven years. Then came The rise
of Mahomet and Abyssinia, as well as
the rest of that part of the world, was
overrun by the fanatical followers Of
fury the Jewish princess Judith gained
the throne and her descendants held 1t
until the last half of the thirteenth
century, when it again passed into the
hands of the royal line. One hundred
and fifty years or more later the Mo-
hammedans again overran the country
and the Portuguese were called upon
for succor. Then followed a period of
Jesuit ascendancy until 1888, when the
priests were expelled.
It is only N recent years that much
notice has been taken Of Abyssinia.
The attention OF the civilized world
was attracted to the country by news
Of the slaughter OF an Italian army in
1896. When Menelik became ruler of
the country, in 1889. he held his crown
under the protection OF Italy. The
treaty OF Adowa made him an indie
pendent monarch and he ruled the
country with great wisdom. His per-
sonality is intensely interesting. He
asserted that he was a direct descend
ant of Solomon by the Queen Of Sheba,
and styled himself, "Conquering Lion
CT the Tribe Of Juda, Elect of the Sa-
vior. King of Kings Of Ethiopia" A
high-sounding title, but perhaps not
more so than many others of even mod
ern times. Menelik promoted railroads,

BOY SEATS HEALTH OFFICER.

and a good fellow, Franklin s. Carter

to 1t that the tragically departed gets a

Some time since, according to Mr..
Carter, little boy came TO him with a
dead dog, which, he said. he had fished
out of the Assiscunk creek. Following
The usual custom, the member of the
board OF health gave him a dollar to

EXAMPLE oE CHINA.

Soldiers may not be needed for a
hundred years. but can not be dis
pensed with for a single day" says an
old Chinese proverb. How singular 1t
is that China, having such an excellent
maxim, should have allowed herself to
become the prey Of the rest of the
world on account OF the lack Of an
crmy. There is a hint In the proverb
which might be taken to heart by tho
people of the United States. We might
not need a great navy in a hundred
years. Then, again, we might need it
q week OF a month hence. To be with
out warships would mean our elimina-
ton as a world power and leave us
open TO attack upon the least pretense
The chairman Of the naval committee
OF the House recently reported a bill
calling for the building of two new
battleships OF the latest and best type
next year. Some OF the Democratic
members Of Congress propose that only
one shall be built, claiming that this
country is at peace with all the world
and that there are no dark spots In the
horizon in any direction. Quite true,
just at present. Calling the Chinese
proverb to mind. however, we should
not be unprepared single day. It is
much cheaper to build warships than
to pay indemnity or allow our coasts
to be ravaged, to say nothing of the
loss of life and commerce should trouble
come. The wise thing to DO is to bund
the two warships. as recommended, and
keep on making additions to the navy
until no other nation dare tackle us.

STILL MORE STRENUOUS.

II is said the army officers who were
compelled to do riding stunts and take
long walks over dusty roads in order
TO escape being placed on the retired
list. heaved a sigh of relief when the
administration of President Roosevelt
ended. One short year has passed and
their dream of ease is ended. The
awakening was somewhat rude, too
The general staff of the army has
blocked out program which for siren
uosity goes Roosevelt one better. Not
only must the unfortunate army Of
ficers do an annual stunt Of wearisome
proportions, but they must be on the
highways nearly every DAY in the year.
An average ride Of three hundred miles
month for twelve months In the year
is required Of mounted officers, while
the straps" who are not mounted will
have to do half that distance on foot.
This means six miles day, mounted,
or three miles a day unmounted, six
days in each week OF the year. There
is an annual physical test in addition.
Ali field officers of the cavalry and
field artillery are required to ride
thirty-six miles a day for three con-
secutive days, and all other officers
above the rank Of captain must ride
thirty miles day for three consecutive
days.
There was much grief when the
Roosevelt order went into effect. It
was felt by the army officers that the
process OF eliminating the old, fat and
weak ones was going too far. Now the
consensus Of opinion is that it wasn't
so bad after all, more especially since
the edict Of the general staff has gone
forth. A war would be welcomed at
