Held Up Fast Train.
\ Denver, Col., Feb. 13.?Two j
. masked bandits held up Denver and |
Rio Grande train No. 4 at Military [
Junction, between Fort Logan and j
Ijenver this morning, looting the j
mail car and the registered mail, j
"There is a steep grade just after,
leaving the junction and as the train ;
reached its crest two men sprang in- I
to the glare of the headlight.
One ran rapidly toward the engine j
and climbed into the cab. He had a:
gun in each hand and quickly had J
the fireman and engineer under sub-;
jection. As soon as the train was!
stopped another baDdit ran to the i
mail car and hammered the door.
. During this time both men were
shooting rapidly alongside the train |
to intimidate the passengers and:
train crew. It is estimated they fired
at least fifty shots.
The bandit in the engine cab
forced the engineer and fireman to j
accompany him. While one of the'
bandits stood guard over the en- i
gineer the other one compelled the j
vfireman to enter the mail car and j
point out the registered mail. Then
marching the engine crew back to
the engine they ordered them to
proceed at full speed to Denver,
threatening to shoot if not immediately
obeyed. The robbers fled and!
the train ran to the nearest tele-1
graph office where the robbery was
reported.

HOLE IN *ENCE, GIRL GONE.
" *
Result of Father's Objection to
Daughter's Beau.
A good joke is told on one of our
over-the-river neighbors who sveral
years ago had a family of good looking
daughters, who were smart and
good workers. They, of course grew
up and the boys, as is natural, took
a fancy for them and wanted to
marry them, but the old gentleman
for some reason (perhaps best
known to himself) objected to and
used every precaution to prevent any
of them from marrying and especially
one young fellow who was
especially distasteful to the old
man. As time passed on this young
renow ana nis gin went on wim
their courting "unbeknowing" to the
old man. The old man had the
house surrounded with a strong
pailing fence and there was no
means of ingress or egress, except
through the gate, which he kept
pretty well guarded both night and
day. They knew they would have to
run away if they got married. So one
morning he awoke to find a hole in
an unguarded part of the fence and
his girl was gone?gone to get married
against his will or wish. He
was at his wit's end. None of the
family claimed any knowledge of the
elopement, but the old man thought
differently. Turning to his other
girls, whom he suspected would soon
follow suit, he said: "If you want to
go, go now while the way is open."?

GIRL SURGEON'S SUCCESS.
Miss Fannie Belle Walton, of Georgia,
Makes Unusual Record.
Eatonton, Ga., Feb. 11.?Miss
Fannie Belle Walton, the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Albert J. Walton, of
this city, has just graduated with |
high honors from a training school I
in Temple, Texas. Miss Walton won
a scholarship in Belleview hospital
over a large class. She took a special
course in surgery.
Responding to a railroad wreck
call the young lady amputated an
engineer's leg so skillfully that he
presented her with a gold watch on
his recovery.
Many Negroes Arrested.
Pittsburg, Feb. 12.?In a raid the
police of Brownsville, Pa., arrested
150 negroes who have been loafing
about the coke ovens. All were discharged
at a hearing later and ordered
to leave town, except six, who
are being held pending an investigation
of their records in Pittsburg,
Cleveland and other places.
According to the Brownsville authorities,
most of the negroes are
from Pittsburg, which place they
left when the police made wholesale
arrests of negroes on account of
many assaults against white women.
