as some men would bet a dollar on
the turn of card.
1t was easier in those days to mar
ket the loot than it is now. There was
no such system for protecting the
shipper as prevails today. Battles
with road agents were not irfrequent.
Many an engineer, seeming danger,
has risked his life by deliberately
throwing her wide open and taking
the chances of being killed by singing
bullets to save his train of precious
ore from the hands of highwaymen.
A number of years ago couple of
poverty stricken prospectors opened,
near Hillsboro, N. M, a lead that
looked for a time as If it was large
enough to pay the national debt. They
skinned the cream in few days and
then sat up nights with it, until they
could take 1t to the railroad.
They were without funds, and
though they dared not tell anybody of
their good fortune, the news spread
In mysterious manner, probably be-
cause of their secretiveness. When
they loaded their ore into Santa Fe
car, after having rreighted it Tor
miles from the mine, a crowd had
gathered to see them. The car door
was locked and sealed. They had
placed a value of s250,000 on the ore.
In less than five minutes it seemed
as If everybody knew about it. At
that time such men as Black Bart
we're abroad in the land. Men like him
had an unpleasant way of stopping
trains, and enforcing their demands
with rifles of uncommon bore.
When the conductor handed his or
ders to him. he remarked to the en-
gineer:
We've got s25O,OOO in gold in that
box car we just picked up"
We've got WHAT in it?"
'You heard what l said"
That's more money than there Is
In the world. Suppose" he added
sententiously, some guy who looks
through holes cut in a handkerchief
waves shotgun at us after we get
out or the yafQ IlmltS!
That's up to you, Jerry" gravely
answered the conductor
1t was serious Understanding
ore SO valuable that handful of it
was worth more than 5000 bill.
Then his jaws set, and he muttered:
"They have never put one over on
me yet-theyll have a run for their
money If they try 1t now"
During the entire trip, whenever the
various engineers who pulled the car
of precious freight observed anything
unusual or sighted men ahead, they
crowded on steam and shot by them.
They had a quarter of million dol
lars in treasure, and intended to pro-
tect it with their lives, if necessary.
When the train crew heard Of It,
they were plainly nervous. Word was
flashed down the line. The news
reached the papers, and there were
telegraphed daily stories of the trains
progress.
1t was the advance of an Aladdin
with his lamp. Whenever the train
neared a crowd assembled to meet it.
The car was billed to a smelter in
Denver and made trip of nearly 800
miles without mishap. When all
charges had been paid it netted the
owners more than 100000.

"Do you think this new committee

Check on Locomotive Engineers.

An apparatus which registers all
cases of engine drivers running past
danger signals and sounds an alarm

ed on a portion of one of the German
state railroads.
Regulations have also been framed
which order any stationmaster on
hearing such alarm to await the ar
rival of the train and Immediately to
Interrogate the engine driver.

Lace Door Panel.

Very frequently lace door panels
shrink after washing them, making it
impossible to use them again.
To prevent this follow these instruc-
tons: After removing the panel from
the door thoroughly clean the glass.
Wash and starch the lace. slip in
the rods Immediately and replace the
panel on the door.
Care should be observed to pull the
lace straight, lacking down the sides,
IL necessary, to stretch the panel.
Allow it to dry upon the door.
This gives far better results than to
launder the panel in the usual man
ner.

Boots American Woman Is Wearing

With short walking skirts boots
should play an important part. The
average woman Is seldom enthusiastic
about shoes for a long time; prob
ably she is too much concerned about
the slimness or shapeliness Of her
ankle, which is apt to spread inele-
gantly unless it be strictly confined,
The boot of the moment is Of black
patent leather with white glace up
pers, for which white suede may be
substituted, and it is really very
smart, although already it suffers
from the misfortune of being initiated
by the cheaper shops.

How My Boy Went Down

II was not on the field of battle. II was nor with , ship at sea. But fate far worse than either That stole him away from me Twas the death in the tempting dram That the reason and senses drown. He drank Of the turing poison And thus my boy went down. Down from the heights of manhood To the depths of disgrace and sim Down to 2 worthless being,
 From the hope of what might have For the brand of beast besotted He bartered his manhood's crown; Throug1h the gate of sinful pleasure My poor. weak boy went own 'Tis only 5he same old story
 That mothers so often tell. With accents of infinite sadness Like she tones of a funeral bell;
 
 But I never though. once when I heard
 it
 I should learn all its meaning myself; l; I thought he'd be true to his mother. I thought he'd be true 10 himself. Bu5. alas. for my hopes of elEsiOn, Alas for his youttful pride. Alas, who are safe from danger So open on every side' O. can nothing destroy this great evil' No bar in ,ts pathway be thrown, To save from the terrible maelstrom The thousands of boys going 1own'
