SINGLE-HANDED TIN HOLD-UP

Lone" Bandit Kills Engineman and Cows Railway Employes. COVERS CLOTHES WITH BURLAP Completely Disguised, the Robber Uses Dynamite on Express Safe, Then Compels Fireman to Carry Him Two Miles on Locomotive. Helena, Mont., dispatch: A lone bandit held np the eastbound limited train No. 2 on the Northern Pacific road near Drummond, Mont., killed the engineer, robbed. the mail, dynamited the safe in the express car and got away into the mountains on horseback with an eight-hour start over his pursuers. The amount of his plunder is not known, but is thought to be large. It was shortly after midnight when the robbery was committed. The train, which is usually known as the North Coast Limited Mail, passed through Missoula at 10:20 o’clock, and nothing suspicious was noticed about it It made other stops, and it is not known here where the robber got on board. Opens the Throttle. When a point three miles east of Bear Mouth and two miles west of Drummond was reached the engineer, Daniel O’Neill, received a signal to stop. He obeyed at once, and had almost brought the train to a standstill when he happened to glance back at the tender. He saw a man creeping toward him over the coal and at once understood what, was to happen. “Stop the train at once,” said the man with an oath. For answer O’Neill pulled open the throttle and tried to give the train full speed ahead. Then the robber fired at him. O’Neill fell to the floor and died a few minutes later, leaving the robber in full control of the situation. The latter drove the other men in the crew to the rear of the train, and by frequent shots in their direction held them and the passengers at a distance. There was a panic among the passengers, but the robber paid no more attention to them. . Uses Dynamite. First he plundered the mail car, i&Wng al.l the registered letters. Then he turned fils attention to the combination express and baggage car. The dynamite charge which he put under the safe was heavy enough to completely wreck the car. When he had gathered his booty together he made the fireman carry him on the engine four miles east, to a place two miles east of Drummond. “I've got a horse in the timber, there,” he said to the fireman, “and I’ve got a good get-away. Nobody will ever catch ud with me.” As he was getting off the engine he shouted back to the fireman: “If anybody asks who I am, just tell them that I’m the fellow who held up the Southern Pacific train near Portland about a year ago.” The robber wore a black mask, which was found on a mountain trail two miles away by the first posse in pursuit He had his clothes covered with burlap, so that no description of them could be given by his victims.

CASE NO. 30.611.

C. C. Boles, Dealer in Grain and Feed; Address, 5G5 South Water Street, Akron, Ohio—Cured in 1896. Mr. Boies says: “Ever since the Civil War 1 bave had attacks of kidney and bladder trouble, decidedly worso during the last two or three years. Although 1 consulted physicians, some of whom told me I was verging on Bright’s disease, and I was continually using standard remedies, the excruciating aching just across the kidneys, which radiated to the shoulder blades still existed. As might be expected, when my kidneys were in a disturbed condition there was a distressing and inconvenient difficulty with the action of the kidney secretions. A box of Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at Lamparter ft Co.’s drug store, brought such a decided change within a week that I continued the treatment The last attack, and it was particularly aggravated, disappeared." Cure Confirmed Four Years After. Four years later Mr. Boies says: In the spring of 1896 1 made a public statement of my experience with Doan’s Kidney Pills. This remedy cured me of terrible aching in the kidneys, in the small of my back, in the muscles of the shoulder blades, and in the limbs. During the years that have gone by I can conscientiously say there have been no recurrences of my old trouble. My confidence in Doan’s Kidney Pills is stronger than ever, not only from my personal experience, but from the experience of many others in Akron, which bave come to my notice." A FREE TRIAL of this great Kidney medicine which cured Mr. Boies, will be mailed on application to any part of the United States. Address Foster-Mil burn Co., Buffalo, N. Y.

Revival of Old Flowers.

Florists report an extraordinary revival of interest in old-fashioned flowers. Country estates have sent them orders too large to be filled for verbenas, pansies, marigolds, phlox and sch quaint old favorites. The aster nearly as popular this year as the chrysanthemum in its palmiest days ever was. The most remarkable revival, says the New York Evening Post, is that of the waxy white camelia,' which reigned supreme in the early ’7os. The demand for this flower as a man’s buttonhole decoration threatens to send the gardenia into obscurity^

INSIST ON GETTING IT.

Some grocers say they don’t keep Defiance S.. rch. This is because they have a stock on hand of other brands containing only 12 os. in a package, which they won’t be able to sell first, because Defiance contains 16 oz. for the same money. Do you want 16 oz. instead of 12 os. for same money? Then buy Defiance Starch. Requires no cooking.

There are many excellent magazines but none exactly like “The Pilgrim.” You may get a magazine that interests the women and girls, but there is not much in it for the father and brothers. Or, you can get a man’s magazine, all politics and business. Or, you can get magazines just for the children. But “The Pilgrim” aims to have something to interest every member of the family. When you know a thing, to hold that you know it, and when you do not know a thing, to allow that you do not know it; this is knowledge.—Confucius.

Pe-ru-na is known from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Letters of congratulation and commendation testifying to the merits of Pe-ru-na aa a catarrh remedy are pouring in from every State in the Union. Dr. Hartman is receiving hundreds of such letters daily. All classes write these letters, from the highest to the lowest. The outdoor laborer, the indoor artisan, the clerk, the editor, the statesman, the preacher—all agree that Pe-ru-na is the catarrh remedy of the age. The stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh as their greatest enemy, are especially enthusiastic in their praise and testimony. Any man who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh is well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent Pe-ru-na is the only absolute safeguard known. A cold is the beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds, to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of its victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures catarrh, but prevents. Every household should be supplied with this great remedy for coughs, colds and so forth. The Governor of Oregon is an ardeat

In a recent letter to Dr. Hartman he says: State of Oregon, ) Executive Department, l Salem, May 0, 1808. ) The Pe-ru-na Medicine Co., Columbus, O.t Dear Sirs—l have had occasion to use your Pe-ru-na medicine in my family for colds, and it proved to be an excellent remedy. I have not had occasion to use it for other ailments. Yours very truly, W. M. Lord. It will be noticed that the Governor says he has not had occasion to use Pe-ru-na for other ailmenta The reason for this is, most other ailments begin withe cold. Using Pe-ru-na to promptly cure colds,he protects his family againstother ailmenta This is exactly what every other family in the United (States should do. Keep Pe-ru-na in the house. Use it for coughs, colds, la grippe, and other olimatic affections of winter, and there will be no other ailments in the house. Such families should provide themselves with a copy of Dr. Hartman's free book, entitled “Winter Catarrh." AddrtM Dr. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio.
