II. W. Kcenc, who lives north of tho city
limits, near Mynster Springs, was held up
nnd robbed while on bis way homo lato
Thursday night by two thugs, who slugged
him and left him lying unconscious In tho
roadway. The robbers secured his pocket-
book, containing 111.
Kceno had reached a point on the con
tinuation nf North Eighth street, between
the Northwestern watch tower and the
bridge, when ho was suddenly confronted by
a man who stepped out Into thd roadway
from, behind somo shrubbery. Tho man's
faco was partly concealed wlthia handker
chief tied over the lower portion, leaving
tho eyes free. Tho fellow, who had a
weapon In his hand, which Kceno took to
bo a revolver, ordered him to hold up his
bands. Kceno happened to bo carrying u
revolver himself In bis overcoat pocked, and
Instead of complying with tho fellow's de
mand drew tho weapon. Ho was wearing
a pair of thick woolen mittens nnd this re
tarded hln movements. Dcfore he could use
tho revolver tho thug Jumped at him and
then Keene noticed that his assailant was
armed with a despcrattt looking knlfo. He
Jumped backward and tho knife descended
on his arm, cutting a gash through his
overcoat and undercoat. Uoforo ho could
manage to get his finger on tho trigger tho
fellow mado another slash nt Kceno, cut
ting his coat ncross the breast. Kocna then
fired two shots at close rnngo at ills as
sallant, and Is unable to account for his
failure to hit 'him.-
Kceno was about to Are tho third tlmo
when he heard his assailant shout, "Well,
slug htm," and then- realized that he had
two thugs to copo with. Instead of one. Ho
turned partly nround.i when he w.as struck
on tho head from behind,, evidently with a
sandbag, and rendered unconscious.
When bo recovered consciousness some
hours later ho was lying In tho snow where
ho had fallon on his face. Ho was bo
numbed and stiff with tho cold. With con
siderable difficulty ho mado his way home,
where ho discovered ho had been robbed of
his pockotbook, ho thugs having gone
through his pockets after ho had fallen un
conscious. Returning with a companion to tho place
whero ho had been waylaid Kceno found
his rovolvcr pressed down Into tho snow
whero he had fallen upon It. Examination
showed thrco empty cartridges and Keene
is of tho opinion that ho must have suc
ceeded In firing a third shot at the moment
ho was knocked unconscious from behind.
After recovering his revolver Keeno pro
ceeded to tho police station, whero ho. re
ported tho holdup to the authorltles.llo
was nblo to glvo only an Incomplete de
scription of the thug who assaulted him
from In front.
The man who slugged him from behind ho
did not seo at all.

SCAPES BY AHAIR'S BREADTH
Alonso ITttrrliflck'H Horse Killed by
Trnln While He I Vn-
ncnlhed.
Alonzo Utterbnck. driver on tho mall
wngon, had a miraculous cscapo from being
ground beneath tho wheels of the Burling
ton fast mnll train yesterday afternoon at
tho Eleventh nvenuo and Sixth street cross
ing. Tho two horses Utterbnck was driv
ing were killed Instantly, but ho escaped
without a scratch and the wagon wns not
even tipped over.
The crossing is considered one of tno
most dangerous In the city, as the building
ot tho Monarch Manufacturing company at
tho northwest corner of Eleventh avenuo
and Sixth street obscures tho view of tho
Burlington tracks from tho south. Utter
back waa driving south on Sixth street and
failed to hear tho fast mall approaching
from tho west. Tho horses had Just crossed
the north rail of the track when the-loco-motlvo
struck thorn. One horse wns car
ried fifty feet and the other thirty. Both
were killed iustantly. although neither
showed any marks. The peculiar feature
of tho accident was that tho wagon was
not overturned, neither was the tongue
broken. The reins were pulled out of the
driver's hands, but he waa not thrown from
his Beat. Ho naturally looked upon his cs
capo as nothing short ot a miracle.
Soveral aldermen who went to tho sceno
of the accident discussed tho advisability
of requiring the railroad to keep a flagman
nt this crossing, and It Is expected tho mat
ter will bo brought up nt tho council meet
ing .Monday afternoon, Those who witnessed
tho accident said the train was running
at a high rato of speed, far in excess of that
permitted by tho city ordinance. The fact
that the engineer never Btopped tho train
to ascertain what damage hurt ueon done
caused considerable, commont among those
attracted to tho scene.

"Six of one are half a dozen of the other." The princi
pal difference between pains is the names given by doc
tors. The name doesn't amount to anything. If the
pain is in the back the doctors call it one thing, and if
it is in the leg they call it another, and yet if they should
change those names the pain would hurt just as bad.
Omega Oil stops pain. The trouble may be in the neck,
shoulders, back, arms, elbows, wrists, hips, legs, knees,
ankles or feet. No matter. Omega Oil puts out pain
in all parts of the body just as water puts out fire in all
parts of a house. It has been tried so often that there is
no longer any doubt about it. Hundreds of thousands
