shortly before 11 o'clock. At Maple
Park. ilfty miles from Chicago. it was
discovered that tower "W" at Elburn
was either out of order or was not giv-
ing the right signal. Dan White clos-
ed his throttle QIIICIiiy and brought the
train to a standstill. The train was
midway between Elburn and Maple
Park. White had hardly brought his
engine to a standstill when be masked

The railroad men did so and the rob-
bers detached the engine from the rest
of the train and White was told to pull
out. The robbers ordered him to take
his.enginc two miles up the track.
There he attempted to make a light and
re-capture his engine. He struggled
manfully. One of the robbers shot at
him but failed to hit him.
In the meantime four other men had
attacked the conductor and the brake-
men- Numerous shots were iired to
intimidate them. The conductor was
unable to make any resistance. as hr
was told he would be killed. One of
the brakemen managed to escape in the
darkness and r ed to Elburn. where
he sent the al to the train des-

The robbers ter overpowering the
conductor orde . the express messen-
ger. Frank Hobson, to admit them to
the car.
"You open up that car," one of the
robbers shouted, “or we'll blow it up.‘
Back from the car came a about:
"You try to force it open and I'll shoot
the II"! man who shows his head."
A volley of shots was the reply. and
after several of the shots had whizzed
past his head the express messenger
opened the door. They put revolvers to
his head and compelled Robson to give
up the keys to the local safe. Then they
blew open the door of the through safe
with dynamite. the explosion wrecking
the car. The robbers then grabbed all
the money and express packages they
could find. and fled.

gave the first Information to the offl-

men had come into the tower and asked
him the number of the next [ruin going
west. They wanted to know if it was
not No. :‘l, but the operator says he told
their: it was No. HQ. The robbers then
told the operator he was a fool; that
they knew better. To show the oper-
ator that they had laid their plans
thoroughly and know what they Wow
talking about, they pointed guns at his
head and told him if he made a move
they would kill him. They tied him up
with ropes. stuffed a towrl into hos
mouth and told him if he was a "good
fellow" he would car-ape without bciug
hurt.

Williams said there was little question
that the robbers were Chicago crooks.
as all the old time train robbers have
been captured. and it was thought that
the practice had been pretty well bro-
ken up. A message was sent to all the
police stations of (‘bicago to look for
the robbers.
The stopping of the mail train brings
the United States authorities directly
into the case, as well as the express
company and special police services

make their escape it will be by hiding
in Chicago. It was felt that if the
robbers could be compelled to stay out
in the country over night. their chance
of eluding the officials would be slight.

TWO CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY
JESTS.
The fellow commoners were always
at Cambridge called empty bottles.
from the following circumstance that
occurred at Emanuel: wine merch-
ants send their porters occasionally
round the colleges to collect the out-
tles. One of these men. during the
hour of lecture. knocked at the lecture
room door by mistake and called out
”Empty bottles!" The tutor. then
out of humor at being attended only by
one fellow commoner when there were
twenty in college. cried out: "Call
again another time. I have now but
one." This soon gathered wind. and
these young gentlemen of the first class
went afterward throughout the univer-
eity by the name of empty bottlea
As to professional students (some
very few excepted). they are worse
scholars at leaving college than at
their admission. I heard our tutor
on‘ce censure a young man at lecture
who had been nearly three years at col-
luevby saying that he knew less than
a freshm who sat nest him.
