TRAIN ROBBERS POOLED.
Hold Up n 'lYaln oinviiloli There Was
No llooty.
K-.nss Clfy, Mo., Nov. ID. The MIs-
louii Pacific passenger train known as
the 81. lunula fast mail, which leaves
Kanm City at 9 p. in., waa held up
by Ave masked men at 9:80 o'clock
last night at the Chicago and Alton
crossing, Just opposite Independence,
Mo., and lew than a. mile from the fa
mous Blue Cut, In which three train
robberies have occurred within the past
year.
Two of the robber-- were disguised as
women, and when the engineer saw
them, swing '.he lantern across the
tracks, an apparent signal of danger,
he did not hesitate to stop.
Tne engine crew were Immediately
covered with revolvers. Conductor
Dennis O'Brien and Drakeman Mc-
Mlchael stepped out to see what was
the matter and were greeted by a vol
ley of bullets, which at onoe caused
great confusion In the passenger coach
es. The conductor and brakeman were
compelled to cut the express and bag
gage cars from the rest of the train,
and tpe engineer and fireman were
made to get down out of the cab. The
robbers quickly Jumped aboard and
took the engine and express car about
two miles further east, where they
stopped and compelled Express Mes
senger Williams to open the door. He
offered no resistance, as he carried no
treasure. The robbers were greatly
surprised upon discovering that the
cars which they had captured con
tained nothing of value, and quickly
disappeared loathe darkness.

St. Paul, Nov. 18. Miss Matilda An
derson, a young woman, who has been
kept alive at the hospital for six weeks
by artificial respiration, died late on
Thursday night of congestion of the
lungs. For days the nurses and
house physicians of the hospital have
been filling Miss Anderson's lungs with
air by artificial means, at first by
raising nnd lowering the arms, and
when that became painful, by oper
ating on the chest. Had the nurse
stopped even for five minutes Miss An
derson wduld have strangled and died
And yet the young woman had become
co used to the manipulation that she
ate and slept almost naturally, and
could carry on conversation.

SCHEME TO SWELL DIVIDENDS.
Dovlee Kinnloyptl bySome Gas Companies
and How to Thwart It.
Having graduated from tho Sheffield
Scientific school, where ho made a special
study of tho chemistry of Illuminating
(tunes, ho quickly found n position with
0110 of tho older gas companies In n city
which Bhall be nameless. He remained
two years and then resigned. Ho had been
roared In the Methodist faith, nnd he con
fided to a friend that ho could not retain
his position without doing violence to his
protesting conscience,.
"It Is a good thing for corporations that
they havo no souls, " ho said when chat
ting about his oxperioncos, "as thoynro
relieved of all loar of future punishment.
Tho eighth commandment is apparently
unknown to tho general manager of tho
company with which I woa associated.
Did you over havo gas bills rendered for
amounts Beomlngly out of all proportion
to tho quantity of gas you thought you
had burncdf"
Every member of tho group nodded a
vigorous alunnatlvo.
"Possibly your meters aro defoctlvo,"
ho observed, "hut In tho district served by
ray former employers thero was always a
'kick' ooinlng from tho consumers, and
yet tho meters were, absolutely nocurato In
thoir operation. Every month tho com
pany collected from 10 to 15 per cent moro
than It wa honostly entitled to, which
was a tidy little, profit on tho sldo. now
was It managed? Easily enough. Every
night shortly after midnight tho pressuro
in the mains was raised enormously. Un
der this increased pressuro the gas was
forced through tho motors and compressed
in tho various pipes in tho building of tho
consumer. Naturally tho meters accurate
ly registered all the gas thus forced through
them. letter tho pressuro was reduced bo
low tho normal, and thero was a return
flow through the pipes, but as tho meters
would not back register tho gas flowed
through them from the house to tho mains
without producing any alteration In tho
figures, bucking to this system of pump
lng, tho company succeeded In getting a
showing nt tho end of the month that was
largely in Its favor."
"Was thoro no way In which tho con
sumer could protect himself t" Inquired
one curious member of the clrclo of listen
ers. "Certainly, but as ho know nothing of
the method by which ho was being swin
dled tho simple checkmating scheme never
occurred to him. Tho prudent man who
carefully turned off his gas at tho meter
overy night when ho was through with It
paid only for what ho got. Tho 'milking'
of tho meters was then Impossible."
And every 0110 who heard how It was
done mode n mental resolution to use tho
meter shut oft thenceforward, oven whllo
consoling himself that tho Chicago com
panies are above resorting to any petty
fraud of this character. Chicago Times-Herald.
EXCELSIOR.
A Mannfuctnre nt Wooil That lias Many
Uses aud Is Solil In Great Quantities.
The material known ns oxcclslor Is not
refuso, nor Is It mado of shavings; It Is
an nrtlclo of regular manufacture. Ex
celslor Is of American Invention, nnd It
was first made In this country 85 or 40
years ago. Tho present output amounts to
thouMvuds of tons mutually, and tho use of
It Is all the tlmo Increasing.
Excelsior Is made i:i many parts of tho
country, nlmo.-t always In mills that aro
tn closo proMinity to tho forests from
which tho supplies of wood are taken. A
considerable amount of excelsior Is mndo
In conjunction with other manufactures;
for oxninplu, It Is not unusual to set up a
row excelsior machines In n lumber mill,
but thero Is nt least 0110 concern la tho
United States that makes nothing but ox-
celslor and has at a number of different
points mills dovoted solely to tho produc
tion of these curling libers of wood.
Hasswood and poplar aro tho woods used
In the production. Tho logs aro sawed
Into lengths of 18 Inches, which Is tho
length of a fiber of oxcclslor. Thcwo blocks
aro split Into hnlves and tho wood Is prop
erly seasoned. Excelsior Is mado of dif
ferent degrees of coarseness nnd fineness
of filler. In tho manufacture n scries of
knife points run down tho faco of tho block.
cutting into tho wood lnparallol lines that
aro spaced according to tho width of tho
fiber to bo mndo. A following knlfo slices
on tho whole, faco of tho block thus scored.
The fillers curl and commlnglo as the knlfo
sets them froo. An exoelslor machine
makes 200 to 300 strokes a minute, overy
stroke cutting off a tlor of flbors across tho
faco of tho block. Tho usual commercial
packngo of oxcclslor Is a bale weighing
about 60 pounds. At wholosalo excelsior
sells nt $10 to $40 a ton.
Excelsior Is oxtenslvely used for packing
purposes and In tho manufacture of bed
ding and in various other upholstery uses,
It Is also largely used for filtering pur
poses, nnd it has various other uses. Ex
celsior is now manufactured In Germany
nna i rnnco, whero It Is called wood wool
Tho wood used In tho manufacture In
those countrlos Is brought from Norway
and Sweden, nnd tho maufactured product
costs moro thero than It does hero.

ous foreign countrlos. The export demand
has not been grunt, but It is now lncrc&s-

BABY'S SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN
A Grateful Mother Writes this Letter
Tells all about Her Troubles when
baby Qroko out with Sorofula Sores.
"At the age of two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used all the external ap
plications that wo could think or hear of,
to no avail. The sores spread all over one
side of his face. Wo consulted a physi
cian and tried his medloine, and In a week
the sore was gone. Out to my surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing soro appeared on baby's arm. It
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, I began giving hlr.i
Hood's SsrssparllU. I also took Hood's
Saraaparllla, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. He is now fouryearsold,
but he his nover bad any sign of those
scrofulous sores since be wsa cured by
Hood's Sarsaparllla, for wbioh I feel very
grateful. My boy owes bis good health

BOOKMAKER'S "RUNNER,"
Ue Gota a Good Salary, but learns Every
Cent of It.
Fow men apparently onrn their Balflrlos
easier nnd with moro pleasure than tlio
bookmaker's runners, and In reality few
men havo to work harder nnd moro ponfsl
cntiously for their dally broad than do
thcwo bamo runners. Unlosa you are fa
miliar with tho methods of tho runner you
will not bo nblo to distinguish him from
any of tho other fronzled, wild eyed men
who pcoplo tho betting ring of a metropol
itan race track on a raoe (lay.
If you know him, however, you will see
that ho moves through tho fighting mob
that Burgos through tho ring Just before a
big raoo with greater oaso nnd for moro
speed than the other madmen do, and that
when ho "gets hoailod" for a book ho
manages to roach It before you have had
tlmo to call the man who stepped on your
toe ono of tho bod names you havo pro
pared. That Is tho runner's business, to nquinn
and vrrlgglo nnd twist his way through
tho crowd up to tho man bo believes is
making n plungo on somo horso. Ho finds
out what horso tho man is playing, what

The Rev.J. B. Brady, D. D., Advises His Many Parish
ibners to Take Fame's Celery Compound.
The Hav. James Iioyd Brady, paster of the '
I'coplo't Temple, in Boston, presides over tlio j
iiostiuuiof the largest Methodist church in,
tbo country.
Big, laudid, Scotch-Irishman that he Is,
3)r. Bra ly has built up the Templo finnn-
tally and numerically, and to day ho is the
pastor M' a flock of 1700.
Dr. B.-.ulylovotes himself .with unflagging
courage to anything lid undertakes. Tlio
chief cl nructerititic of his ministry 1ms been
procres. in number, financial condition and
moral n id spiritual growth. He Is a lnau of
plain, 1 ut vigorous words. Po much has been
mid am written about Dr. Brady his work,
ids pro; reseive methods, his eloquence and
hispouirus a minister, that the following
letter fi om him will be convincing and help
ful to many persons besides tho largo number
who aru every Sunday influenced for good by
his powerful pleaching. Ho writes i
Boston, Sept. 27, 1897.
Paine's celery compound, if widely and

neuralgia or general cUbiiity that is lasting
cleansing of the blood and a building up of
the in rvoiis tissues. All this is liest done by
Pai. o's celery compound, bcrnue this re
markable remedy begins at the beginning,
wherever there is disease, and osuihlisbis
tl health firmly and beyond any fear .of
falling hack.
The worn-out person who cannot sleep
should tako Palne's celeiy compound. It is
folly to imagine that every hour taken from
skenis an hour gained. Nothing under
mines health and energy like loss of sleep.
The nervous system suffers as much from
lack of sleep as from lack of nourishment.
Both may be supplied aud a healthy condition
insured by UBihg Palne's celery compound.
Tho stay and staff of sound health is well
nourished and well regulated nerves. Suf
ferers fiom sleeplessness, nervous dyspepsia
or headucho may be suro that overy reser
voir of norvo force has bcou tapped and ex
hausted by work, worry, too llttlo sleep, or
faulty nourishment, because of pool diges
tion and assimilation. As soon as snch signs
of uorvous exhaustion aro noticed, shaky
hands, broken sleep, poor appetite, wasting
diseases, neuralgia or dyspepsia, take art van
tago of the rcniarkablo restorative and regu
lating action of Paino's celery compound.
Nervous disorders increase in a sort of
compound ratio. It Is a thousand times
easier to put a stop to nervous debility in its
earlier stages than later on to correct nerve
nnd brain exhaustion, that may be compli
cated by heart, kidney or somo other organic
trouble.
Palne's celery compound must not be con
founded with any of tho plausible sounding,
but really temporary makeshifts, whose cares
are never permanent nor tborough-going,
and only bring deferred hopes that make the
heartsick. Paino's celery compound Is the
greatest nerve and brain Invigorator and
most reliable blood purifier tho world has
ever been blessed with.
