STUCK UP A STEAMSHIP
Two Daring Bandits Tried to Captur,
and Rob a Vessel Of the Alaska
Pacific Line

Eureka, Cal, August 23.-One of the
most daring attempts at robbery on
the high seas occurred off this port
yesterday, when two men attempted to
hold up and rob the steamship Buck
man, Captain Woods, of the Alaska
Steamship company's line. Captain
Woods resisted the tNb men, who were
both heavily armed with revolvers. He
was shot down as he attempted to
rush" one of them in the hopes of
closing in on him and disarming him.
The man, Fred Thomas, leaped over
board, having secured life preserver.
Meanwhile, the chief engineer, hear
ing the excited cries of the passengers,
rushed from his cabin and leaping
upon the back of the second desperate,
who was holding off some other men,
bers of the crew and male passengers,
hurled him to the deck with sufficient
force to stun him. He was Immediate
ly disarmed and ironed. Simultaneous
ly, his companion, seeing that his part
ner in crime was captured, leaped over
board with the life preserver.
The first officer Immediately assum-
ed command of the ship, and a boat
was lowered and an effort made to To-
cate the man Thomas. who had muir
dered Captain Woods. He was not
found, however, and the vessel pro-
ceeded on her course. The matter was
reported to San Francisco by wireless

TAMPA NORTHERN TRACKS
Successfully Used an Automobile
Speedway by MIR. A. F.. Burns
of BrOOksville
fTampa Times, 22nd.)

One of the most remarkable auto
mobile exploits ever recorded was pull
ed off yesterday when \. F.. Burns of
hands a car of z. X. ThrOwer, Jr, of
Tampa, while a machine of his own
was in this city. The roads between
the cities have been considered impaSs-
able and have not been traverSed for
some weeks. Mr. Burns conceived an
idea upon which he proceeded to act.
Jake AmStutz, the we'll known Brooks
vile mechanician formerly of Tampa.
was in his employ and taking Jake to
act as chauffeur, he proceeded with
Mr.. ,Thrower's car to straddle the
Tampa Northern track, one side pair
outside. and headed for Tampa.
AS yesterday was Sunday and there
We're trains running the road,
the auto had a clear track. 1t was
surprising how merrily it spun along
most of the way and how daintily it
bridges, making good time and arriv-
ing without a disQualifying injury. Not
satisfied with this, Mr.. Burns and his
talented assistant took up the machine
belonging to him which had been left
at Joe B. Johnsons shop and made the
return journey home. The time both
ways was good, but owing to lack of
race regulations and time takers il will
not be entered on the records.
