Nearly so years afoa Mr.. Tomkins
went to Colorado and engaged In

fascination for him and as a side
Issue he prospected and succeeded. In
the middle '70s, when there was but
a trail to Leadyille, he mounted his
burro and made the trip over grades
too steep for holding ground for q
transit and for 10000 feet OF elevation.
Here he grubstaked and engaged in
business, establishing a general store,
carving stock of miners supplies
which was afterwards enlarged so that
machinery was included in the stock.
His business prospered and where
there was q rich strike in the
then territory that showed indi-
cati6n of holding out, and where
there would be demand for
mining supplies and machinery he
established a store rand today Colo

few years ago Mr.. Tomkins saw an
opportunity to add to his fortune by
engaging in the cattle business. He
bought herd Of Herefords after Sc

 When we first went into the bank the cashier told us that we would have to get someone to identify us. We went across the street to the Remnant Goldstein, who is an uncle of mine, to exchange and indorsed it right in the store and said: You can get the money all right now We went back to the bank, and the cashier gave us the money. My father then asked him to change some of the bills for large ones and explained that he did not want me to have too large a package This was done and when he handed over all the money I had exactly $3409.5S.

Miss Jeanette GoIdstein, daughter of 4. l.. GOIdstein of TnIladeEa, was robbed of S3409 yesterday afternoon sometime between 3.45 and 4 o'clock. which she was carrying in black leather handbag. Her purse was robbed either on the Fountain Heights street car or in the Louisville and Nashville station, or on the street between First avenue and Twentieth street and the Louisville and Nashville station.
 Miss Goldstein is a niece of MT. B. Levy, who lives at 1920 First avenue, north, and she had been visiting the Levys up until yesterday when she left the house to catch the Louisville and Nashville train which leaves the sta tion at 4:15 o'clock
 When seen by an Age Herald reporter last night at the home of MT. Levy Miss Goldstein was in a precarious condition as a result of the shock of meeting with such loss. She had been attended by a physician and was very weak She stated that she and her father went to the First National bank yesterday morning at noon to have some New York exchange cashed and some bills of small denominations changed for larger ones:

NO EXPLANATION OF EXPLOSION WHICH DAMAGED PULLMAN Car of 0. & c. Fast Train
 Wrecked by Interior
 Explosion
ALL
 ESCAPE INJURY
Philadelphia Man Slightly Cut About Face by Flying Glass-Think Some One on Train Dropped Bomb
 and It Was Discharged

Mystery surrounds the explosion Of what is thought to have been nitro g1ycerin on northbound passenger train No. 3 of the Alabama Great Southern railroad at Parlxer's siding yesterday morning at 3.o5 o'clock. The place where the explosion occurred is l1o miles south of Birmingham and is a remote and desolate spot.
 Without warning terrific explo- sion occurred in the Pullman car "Orontes." The explosion broke every window in the car and made big rent in the front end of it where the explosive had been placed. It is thought that more damage would have been done had the explosion been in the center of the car. A. c. Mearkle of Philadelphia was slightly cut about the hands and face from the falling glass.
 No railroad official would give out his opinion of the affair other than l.. Sevier, general agent of the Ala bama Great Southern. After the eX- pfosion the train was stopped and an investigation made. It was found that the Pullman was not damaged to such an extent that it would have to be sidetracked, so the train proceeded.
 Much excitement was caused at the Terminal when the train carrying the damaged car arrived yesterday morn ing. Every passenger said the ex- plosion occurred without warning, while everyone was sleeping, and they could not imagine what had caused 1t. Some were of the opinion that one of the passengers in the Pullman had a bomb which he was carrying to an- other point and that it accidentally exploded. Upon one of the officials at the Terminal being asked whether or not anyone was on the Pullman that might be suspected of carrying eXplo- siyes. he replied that he did not know and if he did he would not have a right to give out the information.
 Special agents of the road met the train with the damaged car south of Birmingham and are working on the case. The following Is the official state ment issued by Mr. Sevier in regard to the explosion:
 "At 3:05 today while train No. 2 on Alabama Great Southern, New Or leans to Cincinnati, carrying sleepers New Orleans to Cincinnati. New Or leans to Birmingham. New Orleans to New York, Shreveport to Chattanooga and Mobile to Chattanooga. was pass ing Parker's siding, point no miles south of Birmingham. explosion oc- cured in New Orleans to New York sleeper Orontes, in center of aisle be- tween berths No. 1 and No. 2; sleeper damaged slightly; no injuries to pas sengers other than to A. C. Mearkle of Philadelphia, who was slightly in- jured on face and head by flying glass. Authorities with special agents met train at nearest point south of Birming ham, and are making thorough in- vestigation as to cause.

 she was robbed she notified Officer

 detective department had no informa-
 ton to impart to anyone concerning
 the robbery last night.
 Miss Goldstein's purse had a cut place in it towards the top of the bag. It appeared to have been cut with a razor, but only one thickness of the leather had been cut through. The bag was of the usual kind carried by ladies, having an inside compartment of smaller size. The money was in the inside compart- ment.

Everyone seemed to be in excel lent spirits, for men Who had known each other all their lives and saw each other possibly several times every day clasped hands heartily and mumbled something or other to the general effect that they were mighty glad the electioneering was over The commissioners also felt the handshaking germ, for they all but fell into each others arms.

Bohemian Bakery Cashier
 Knocked Dozvn By Negroes
 and Cash Register Robbed
Two Robbers Secure Between $50 and S6O and Escape-Mrs Matthews Gives Complete De- scription of Thugs to POlice-Came Into Bak- cry On Twenty First Street One Knocks Wom- an Off Stool and Other Loots Register

Mrs. E. l.. Matthews, cashier of the Bohemian Bakery, 10 North Twenty-first street, was knocked down last night at ' o'clock by two negroes, who robbed the cash register, securing between $50 and $60 in currency and silver. After the ne- groes had obtained all the money in tho register, they pushed Mrs. Matthews to the floor again and told her to keep her mouth shut or they would kill her. They then backed from the register toward the front door and fled
 After lying on the floor a minute or so, Mrs. Matthews got up and walked next door to tailoring establishment and told one of the men what had hap pered. Police headquarters were notified and Officer Pittman investigated The po- lice department had no statement to make ir the matter with the exception that 1t

was working on the case. No one saw the robbery with the exception of Mrs. Mat thews, and no one heard any outcry or noise
 The burglary is considered an unusual ly daring one it having occurred within a few feet from an arc light The patrol man on the beat was standing on the corner during the time Mrs. Matthews says she was attacked and robbed. Ac- cording to a statement made by Mrs. Mat thews to Officer Pittman, the negroes en- tered the store in hurry and walked directly up to the cash register With out a word one of them knocked her off the stool on which she was sitting. and the other pressed one of the register keys and took all the cash out of the till when it opened. A fairly complete description or the negroes was given by Mrs. Mat thewS.
