He Is Utterly Too Good, and nu Wife II Sick of Her Bargain. ,1 One of the best girls any fellow ever knew and- the pride of a village not a thousand miles from Pittsburg made a fatal mistake when she married. ' Being such a happy girl, so sensible and so much sought after by the best young men in the neighborhood, every one con- fidently expected her'to make a great catch. ' But she didn’t, and now her neighbors are wondering how it all hap- ‘ pened. She married a fool. That ex- } plains it all. No need to go into details. The fact that he dressed well and: that he moved in good society and was known as a "very nice young man” will not make the case any plainer. He is a fool. and that is all there is about it. His foolishness consisted largely in believing that the world was not made . right, that the people- are wrong hearted as well as wrong headed, and that it is the duty of every one to array himself against everything as it exists and keep up a. constant grumbling, growling and complaining. This young. man was very religious in a sense. He honestly and faithfully endeavored to keep himself unspotted from the world by avoiding contact with it. He went not into bad company, nor did he patronize picnics and evening parties, but staid at home ‘ reading good books and thinking how he could spin for himself a cocoon that would keep the outside world away from him. He did not realize the fact that he who has himself for companion and friend is in very poor company. » It was this sort of chap that our .model girl married. She ought to have known better, but she mistook hisknowledge of books for an, evidence of brains and of learning, while the fellow really hadn’t two ideas of his own about anything. The inside histdry of this case shows that she did not love him any better than she had other men, but he was such a nice young fellow that she thought there would be no risk taking him. In fact, she took him in the hope of escaping the very misery she is now suflering. He doesn’t beat her with a club, nor does he get drunk and smash the furniture, but he tires her life out by lecturing her, finding fault continually and never com- mending, and trying to make her under— stand that her place is at home and that her duty is to him. Their home is dreary and chilly, and their lives about the same. , They are both satisfied that marriage is a failure, and they cannot be made to believe otherwise. It isn’t the man who has the least book knowledge that is the biggest fool, nor are those who are short on general information to be classed with numskulls. Some of the most do- lightful people one maymeet, are those who are blessed with an abundance of= common sense. nothing of Darwin nor of Briggs and not a great deal about electrical science, and they may even eat with their knives, pour their coffee into Saucers and blow the soup to cool it, et with all these shortcomings and deicts they are the most delightful people to know.

Water Started These Two Fires. N o principle of natural philosophy is ’ more familiar than the power of water to extinguish fire. And yet, strange to 7 say, water has been known to cause de- ‘ structive fires, not by an accident, but by direct chemical action. One case of the kind was in a large factory. A flood caused the water to rise to a pile of iron filingS, which oxidized so rapidly that they developed great heat and set fire to the nearby woodwork. The building was entirely destroyed. Another case is still more remarkable. Several engines were throwing water upon a burning building, and the water found its way to another building, which contained - quicklime. The slaking of the lime. caused of course by the contact of the water, generated intense heat, and the heat set fire to the building. That was a sarcasm of gig- cumstances, wasn’t it? ‘ ___________.__.... in}; 61.1, Oié'Story.

Ho Stuck to His Post, Though Threatened by Desperate Men—Details of the Train Robbery as Told by Eyewitness- os—Dynamito and lVlnchcsters. CHICAGO, Sept. '13.—-Lake Shore and Michigan Southern passenger train N o. 14, east bound, was held up at 3 o’clock this morning by 20 masked robbers at Kesslcr, Ind, a small station 150 miles cast of this city. The engineer was shot and the safe oi the United States Express company blown , , '5 open and robbed, it is said, of $250,000 in gold, shipped east by a Chicam bank. A few rods west of Kessler the engineer, J. D. Knapp, discovered a switch open and put 'on the brakes to save the train from de- struction. press car. They had come prepared for action. _ Theengineer divined the motive, and grasping his coal pick in his hands made a desperate resistance. One of the robbers was struck down and fell off .the _ engine without a groan. Another came 'over the tender, and leveling his revolver by the dim light shot the brave engineer in the chest, seriously wounding him. The fireman saw a chance to make his escape, and jumping through the cab win— dow ran for his life. Dynamite Used. . Meantime the sudden stopping aroused the train crew, and they peered out in the darkness to be met with a shower of bul- lets. The robbers Worked quickly. While some were subduing the engineer and trainmen, others produced dynamite and blew open the do or of the express car, Where they expected to secure the valuable booty. The doors , were shattered. The awful blast shook the whole train. ”The port which reached Chicago at 4 o’clock this morning says they were soon over- powered by the robbers. The safe was next attacked, and it was but short work for the desperate villains to blow it open with dynamite and to bag the contents, and then they hastily made their escape into the darkness. The pas- sengers wisely kept themselves out of dan- ger. When the trainmen became assured that all danger was passed, they crawled out and took an inventory of the damage. A consultation was held, and with the conductor at the throttle and the wounded dallville, a distance of only a few miles. After the engineer had received medical at— tendance and a posse had been sent in search of the bandits, orders were sent for another engineer and fireman. William Hooley, who was stealing a‘ride on the front end of the baggage car, and who saw all without being seen, said he counted in all 20 masked men, and that they completely surrounded the train with drawn revolvers. The United States Ex- press company oifiaals received their first news of the robbery from the Lake Shore officials. General Manager Wygant at once hur- ried to the depot and after a hasty con- sultati'on'w‘ith the railroad men was driven take immediate steps to capture the bold robbers, and by 5 o’clock a. special train was being made up. Before it was ready 8. number of the express company’s best and oldest detectives, several Pinkerton men and a squad of city Vidocqs were ready to proceed on the man hunt. Thirty minutes later the train pulled out from under the depot sheds, and with a clear track before it started for the scene of the boldest rob- bery of this age. The Bear Brakeman’s Story. TOLEDO, Sept. 13. — Engineer James Knapp, who was shot by the train robbers, was taken to his residence on Collingwood avenue in this city upon the arrival of the train. It was found that the bullet pene- trated his right side near the shoulder. He had a very close call, but will be all right in a few days. ' The conductor and most of the crew live in Toledo and left the train here. Asa Mc- Intire, the rear brakeman, said: “The gang numbered about 12 men. I am sure there were not more than that number, although the constant fusilade they kept up with their winchesters would have led one to be— lieve that there were a great many more. They had turned the switch, showing the danger signal, and Engineer Knapp of course came to a stop on seeing the red light exposed. “The switch was turned just before the train was due there, so that any of the em- ployees of the road at that station who might have been about would not have noticed anything strange. Two men boarded the engine and ordered Engineer Knapp and Fireman James Butler to hold up their hands. The engineer disobeyed the order and reached for the whistle rope to warn the rest of the train, but the movement was a signal for the desperado to shoot. The rest of the gang stationed ~themselves along the train. and kept up a sengers frightened and that they might not rush out and overpower them. As soon as a head showed itself down the train a shot whizzed by as a warning to 4 . keep inside. “Three men jumped into the express car. Two held up the messenger, M. W. Weiss, while the other blew the safe open with dynamite. to the telegraph station ' two miles back, but I was driven back into the train by shots. ”I finally put my light under my coat and sneaked away and walked to the station, where I telegraphed the train fol- lowing to stop and inform the officials by wire.” , The railroad and express officials here 'say that last night was a light one on the express car. Several nights ago $5,000,000 were sent through, and it is thought that the robbers Were organized for the purpose 3 of raiding that pile, but missed calculations. Wabash to Be Stripped.

GILROY AS A EAGEMAKER. [he Eloquent Congressman and the Mayor, of New York City Have a Conference Which Is Claimed to Have Been In the Interest of a Truce. NEW YORK, Sept. 13.—Nothing in the newspapers in a long time has caused so much comment as the following, published in The Herald today: Representative W'. Bourke Cockran came to the city yesterday. He said he had oeen suffering from malaria for the last three weeks and hoped to regain his health at his country place at Sands Point, N. Y. He called on Mayor Gilroy in the after- noon, and the fact was commented upon. Postmaster Dayton happened to be in con- versation with the mayor at the time, and Mr. Cockran was invited to sit down. Shortly after Mr. Dayton withdrew Mayor Gilroy disposed of some other call- ers and then led the way for -Mr. Cockran into the private office. The gentlemen were together for at least a half hour. \Vhile they were engaged Representative John R. Fellows arrived. His name was taken in to Mayor Gilroy, and word came out—not for Colonel Fellowe to “come right in,” but to call again a half hour later. When the gentlemen were through, May-. or Gilroy said they were discussing “per- sonal matters” only. Politicians were much interested in Mr. Cochran’s call. While everybody regretted Mr. Cockran’s’ malaria, there were some York had been induced by political reasons rather than by ill health. ‘ Drifting Apart. The differences between Mr. Croker and Mr. Cockran, which have been implied rather than indicated ,by any statement from either, are admitted. The two men have been drifting apart for the last six months, just like ex-Mayor Grant and Mr. Croker drifted apart. The attitude of Tam- perhaps the most significant outward evi- dence of displeasure that has yet been shown. The unconcealed rancor,of certain New York congressmen toward Mr. Cock- ran has also been conspicuous. , Tammany men do not agree as to why Mr. Cockran is looked upon with suspi- cion. Some intelligent members of the or- ganization say it is because Mr. Cookran associates with ex-Speeker Reed. Others hint at a‘ too great admiration of Cleveland felt by Mr. Cockran, while still others sum up the complaint by the statement, “He makes a men feel small.” I have asked Mr. Cockran a half dozen times what the trouble was. He invaria- bly looked blank and. then cheerfully re- plied, “I know of nothing.” Despite this assertion, politicians know there has been trouble and there, is trouble, The question now asked is, ~‘-‘-Are they try. ing to fix it up with Cochran?!"- - __ “They” is a polite Tammany way ,of in- dicating Mr. Croker. The impression is that “they” are. “ . ' Mr. Cochran’s friends argue that his as"- many in the Opinion of those who believe it was a political organization, solely insti- tuted throughrapacious motives. ’ — Cannot Spare Cookran. The accepted explanation of Mr. Cock- ran’s visit is that the logical minds of Tam- many realized that his loss would prove a serious blow to the organization, and that instead of twin g “told Off for execution,” as are most, of those who oficnd Mr. Croker, he is being approached with the flag of truce. . ‘. 5 ‘2. Who in Tammany but Mayor Gilroy would have the diplomacy and tact to‘con- duct such negotiations? will not be to Mr. Cockran’s disadvantage no one who knows him doubts. The difierence between the case of ex! Mayor Grant and that of Mr. Cockran is this: Grant was successful; but, in the opinion of the other leaders, was growing too independent. He Was dropped with a thud, although his personal popularity in New York city forbade his absolute polit- ical decapitation. The disposition has been just as strong to drop Mr. Cockran, but that person’s lofty indifference 'on the sub- ject and the necessity the organization found for him brought the tiger from a rampant mood to one of sullen‘peace, I asked Mr. Cockran yesterday about the situation in Washington. “Repeal is assured, in my opinion,” said he. “When the question comes to a vote in the senate, there will bea good majority for repeal. It is impossible to say just whenthe vote will be taken, owing to the dilatory tactics employed by the silver sen- ators. The probability is it will bereached within ten days or two weeks. The house in the meantime is doing nothing.” The Case of Father Dent. BROOKLYN, Sept. 13.—Justice Cullen of the supreme court, speaking from, the bench today on the suit of Rev, Francis Dent against the Order of St. Francis, said that unless the defendants pay the 6250 costs for the privilege of withdrawing a juror in the trial of the case in two days he ‘would grant Mr. ‘Dent’s motion to be relieved from filing a copy of a document which says his expulsion from the order was illegal.

At one place, Las Piedras, at which the diligence stopped, I noticed ezotettix vittiger, Pezotettix maculi-~ pennis and Pezotettix arrogans, which covered the ground and rocks. , _ My attention was attracted by‘ the fact of seeing around one locust a num- ber of other individuals Of the same spe- cies, which were eating "its soft parts even while it was yet alive and protest— ingvigorously. I saw difierent attacks, in which the conquerors, two or three at a time, got hold of the weaker members of their own kind, throwing them over and openingthe abdomen in‘ order to devour the entrails, these. being the soft- er and more savOry portions, since they still contained some of the vegetable food. Cannibalism here appeared in its lowest development, and the numerous remains of those which had been eaten here witness to the extent to which the process hcd been carried» In the face of facts of this character, it seems certain that nothing is sacred in nature when the prolongation of life, for the sake of the preservation of the species, is concerned—Carl Berg in Nat- ural Science. ‘ .

Effect of the Earth’s Motion Janis Shot. That the earth’s motion hasjap ,appre- ciable effect upon artillery fire, deflect- ing the projectile from a straight course, may be news to many and as such=w6uld probably seem a novel notion. ' It has. paper read before. the Royal Artillery institution. Firing from north to south there is a divergence of projectiles to the left, due to the earth’s rotation. and fir- ing due north the divergence is to the ' right. The extent of the “pull” varies at diiferent points of the earth’s surface and with projectiles fired at different speeds and elevations.
