Cacd to He the Headquarter* for Stag Hold-Up Men — The Hold Train*— Steel Kzprea* Cars Hare Changed Thing*. ' While road agents are busy In the West bolding up trains and securing from $10,000 to $60,000, every fifteen days an express train brings into Omaha, Neb., from the great Home stake mines more than $200,000 in gold, and the extraordinary aggregation of terasure is never disturbed by high waymen. Probably no proposition in the West 1b surrounded with a greater halo of romance and exciting adventure than efforts of the Homestake people to get their treasure to Eastern bunks, and though the advent of the railroad robbed the affair of much of Its roman tic features, the semi-monthly trip of the treasure guards from the Dead wood mines to Omaha with from $200, 000 to $300,000 in pure gold Is not wholly devoid of Interest. For more than a decade "Bhotgun" Dick Bullock, 1 brother of Deadwood Dick,the famous old sheriff of pioneer fame, has had charge of these shipments, and he boasts that he never lost a dollar. About the fifteenth and the last of each month "Bhotgun Dick," as Bul lock Is familiarly known to hundreds of people between Omaha and Dead wood, cun be seen sitting in the rear of a dray loaded with the small treas ure box, termed the “strong box,” of the Homestake company, sauntering along from the company’s office to the express office. He carries with him the old-style Winchester pump shot gun. It Is loaded with charges of buckshot, twenty to the cartridge, and its explosion has about the same ef fect as would the firing of a charge of shrapnel. To the express car Dick Bullock follows the money, and sits with his feet dangling from the door of the car while the men lift the heavy safe into the receptacle whlcJi is to carry it to Omaha. From Deadwood to Rapid City the distance is 60 miles, and the line of road passes through the treasure was carried overland In the stage coach, and half a dozen shot gun messengers accompanied each ship ment. It Is considered marvelous that this Homestake treasure has not been taken from the train, or at least, that an at tempt In that direction has not been made in these fifteen years. In fact, only once has an effort been made to rob the train carrying Deadwood treas ure in twenty years. Bullock was uot aboard that day, but Sam Wilson, another "gritty" man, was. He prompt ly shot the leader, Jo Wells, and his only assistant at once surrendered. This occurred in the big gulch between Deadwood and Rapid City. The last great hold-up of the Dead wood treasure coach was in 1878, Just before the road was completed to Deadwood. At that time the treasure was transferred by stage. At Buffalo (lap the gang of "Laughing Sam" Carey and "Curley” Wilson ambushed the messengers. Wade Ellis, the gam est shotgun messenger that ever de fended a pile of gold for pay, was In charge and he had three assistants, mountains, and some most inviting cuts for hold-up purposes. For this distance "Shotgun Dick” pays some at tention to business, for if the treasure bo* is overtaken by bandits it will be in this piece of mountains. After the train has passed beyond Rapid City and is speeding toward Omaha, Dick Bullock makes himself at home. Some times he is to be found down in the passenger coaches, but wherever he is he carries his old shotgun. Dick Bullock Is one or the rew old express messengers left who gutfrded millions In the old days on the lum bering old Concord coaches. He has been under fire from Lame Johnny’s gang, "Laughing Sam’’ Carey’s men. "Curley’’ Wilson's notorious outfit and a number of other desperate bands of road agents of lesser fame. But that was a quarter of a century ago, when They were In one of the first Iron roaches put Into use by the Wells-Far go people. It was a common old Con cord roach, lined with quarter-inch Iron for protection against the bulleta of bandits. The messengers felt ao secure that they boasted of the vast treasure they would carry—f 100,000 In pure gold— and even sent word to the tmndlt gang of "laughing Sam” that they were coming. The bandits In a moment of leckleaaneas concluded they would show the ilomeatake people that their old Iron roach was no better as a treasure box than any other. The out laws went to the stage station at the gap ahead of the stage, and bouud the men in charge, than hldlug them selves In the station awaited the ar rival of the stage roach. When the horeea were drawu up by Hank ttlrh ardeou. aad the guards leaped out, all uaeuaplrloua uf danger, the outlaws opened lire The driver and two of Ihs guards were killed al the Drat shot Kills took refuge behind a tree and shot two of the bandits dead lie was la a position that promised lo cause the outlaws trouble They could not shoot him and could not leave their refuge without his shouting them Finally. ‘Curly’ Wilson, a Mg. (trap plag fellow, picked up oaa of the stable men whom the bandits bad bound aa I laid Is the trough uf the stable aad bidding him la lawt at him with one hand, made the Mbs a human shield and wNh the othet he proceeded to operate a stI shooter Thus equipped he marc bed stswight toward Wade s hiding pines There was Met hi eg tor Kills to hi bat stthev hill tbs betpieae man as rag, aad he ran Then the outlaws proceeded to take the money. It was In bars of $12,500. They placed the treasure in a two-horse wagon and started overland toward the Missouri river. The wagon was traced to the river near Niobrara, Neb. As an evi dence of the furious rate of speed the team was being driven at, a number of bars of gold—three In all—were picked up along the route, which had Jolted out of the wagon. This was all ever secured of the stolen money. Wilson and Carey were never cap tured, and lived to spend the money. The two outlaws mutilated the faces of their two dead companions by cut ting them with knives so that the authorities would not be able to Iden tify them and thus connect the band with the robbery. The dead bodies were left as they had fallen at the Buffalo Gap station. This was the last time the Dead wood treasure coach was held up. HAS TICKED FIVE CENTURIES Famuli* Old » lock In Koiien Ua* Kept Time for 510 Year*. From the Cincinnati Enquirer: Rouen, one of the principal cities of France, and the greatest seat of its cotton manufacture, possesses the old est public clocks in the world. The great Rouen clock has held its place in that city for 510 years and is the pride of its citizens. Placed in 1389, it has been running without interrup tion from that day to this, requiring nothing except cleaning and a few trilling repairs of its accessory parte. The great clock has so accustomed the citizens to look upon its exacti tude as a matter of course that when, in 1572, the breaking of a wire pre vent its sounding 5 o’clock one morn ing, the population was In a state of consternation. The magistrates sum moned the custodian—Guillaume Pe tit—and remonstrated gravely with hint. Until 1712 the great clock had no pendulum. For 323 years it had no other regulator than a ‘‘follot,’' an appartus unknown to the majority of modern clock makers. The pendulum in clock work was introduced In 1659, but so well satisfied were the people of Rouen with the time keeping qual ities of their famous old clock that fifty-three yeurs were allowed to pass before a pendulum was substituted for the “follot.” Equipped with this new apparatus it has continued to this day to strike the hours and chime the quarters. M|mnl*h Cave Dweller* of T»-<lay. We commonly refer the cave dwell ers to pre-hlstoric times, but there are still some of these people In parts of Europe that are considered civiliz ed. Their primitive dwellings are, in some cases, natural caves, and in oth ers have been hewn out of the rocks. Some of these homes in Spain are de scribed by u writer. He says: ‘‘There is no need of an alms house In Alcala. One side of the hill above the town is honey-combed with caves, which are used by the poor as dwellings, free of rent and taxes. These caves run in tiers, with paths between them, and before each Is a garden in which grow the prickly pear, fig, vitas, muize and vegetables. The combination of rock and foliage gives the whole hillside that singular appearance of rocky fertility seen only in southern lands, and particularly in the presence of cactus growth. The people seemed quite as comfortably situated as many who lived in houses, and in general appearance the alms house hill of Alca la was more attractive than the gipsy quarter of Granada. Doubtless these caves have the advantage over ordi nary houses of being warmer in win ter and 'cooler in summer.” Mosquitoes New to Knglaod. Prom Almslee’s Magazine: English people will tell you that In their happy isle there are no such things as mos quitoes. One gets pretty well used to this kind of talk, but In this particular instance the boast holds good,or,rather, did hold good until within the last few years. It Is not alone dollars that the summer tourist has brought to London. Mosquitoes have been Imported, and they have distressed the British more than the American visitors. Probably the name Is a potent one to conjure with, and some Idea of what terrible things are expected of mosquitoes may be learned from this simple tale of the north countree: Some miners In re mote workings of a Yorkshire colliery reported to the superintendent ttiat they had been much annoyed by the bites of mosqultotes, and found a large and energetic colony of yellow banded wasp# —"yeller Jackets," If you like tbst better.

Helrcm In Salvation Army—Cora Van j Norden .loin* Her Slater In the Slam* | —Itelleve* She Ha* a MI*«lon anil a* Onee Take* I'p Her Crus*. Here is the story of the young wom an who believes she has a mission in life beyond social gavety and merry making of the 400. She is Miss Cora Van Norden, daughter of Warner Van Norden. president of the National Bank of North America. She Is fol lowing the footsteps of her sister. Miss Emma Van Norden, long a convert en listed in salvation's ranks. Four years ago, Just after Miss Emma Van Norden had "come out," there was a furor In her set. Miss Van Norden had quietly Joined the ranks of the Bal llngton-Boothe. She and her family were faithful attendants at Dr. John Hall’s church In Fifth avenue, and her friends were amazed at the turn her devotion had taken. "I Implore you to consider," her sis ter said. “No," said Miss Emma Van Norden. "I consider it my duty. You cau stick to society; I shall Join the army.” So Miss Emma Van Norden sold her ball gowns for charity, but Miss Cora Van Norden still appeared in society. She went the usual round of the sea son’s entertainments. "I follow my sister?” she laughed, "Ob, dear, no!” They were sisters, so it was only nat ural that Miss Cora Van Norden should go down into the slums to see what Miss Emma was doing. "I don't «ee how you can stand this," said the girl of society. But the other only smiled. Presently Miss Cora Van Norden began inquiring further about her sister's work. It didn’t seem so bad after all. "Weil, I hope you are happy, any way." she said, and this was her first cheerful view of the situation. “Yes, I am happy,” replied her sis ter. Mr. Van Norden was disquieted. He saw the awakening Interest of hie younger daughter and feared she would follow her sister. ‘‘No, indeed," she laughed. "I am too fond of the gay world.” The Booth-Tuckers met ami were charmed with Miss Cora Van Norden. Her sister talked quietly of the work, and all the pleasant features of Salva tion army life were laid before her. “Dear me," she said suddenly, one lay, a year ago, “Isn't there something t can do to help? I don’t want to Join the Salvation army. I Just want to help." So she was allowed to help. There is a new editor toduy for the Young Soldier, published in the Inter est of the Junior members of the army. The chief editor is away, and the new editor is Miss Cora Van Norden. She has Just taken charge. Her father’s ex pectations have come true. “It is a very delicate matter to talk about,” said Col. IawIs yesterday, at the army headquarters. "Hut It is true. Miss Van Norden is editing the Young Soldier for us." But Miss Van Norden still clings to the outer world. Not yet can she con vince herself she must give up all so cial gayety. She still wears her stun ning tailor-made gowns. But the truth is out. She has Joined the army. Her father has given up his city house and engaged rooms at the New Netherland. Miss Cora Van Nor den has come to work with her sister. “By and by,” say the other Salva tion Army lassies, “she will be with us in everything." “I told you so,” says her sister -almly. Corse Hanging Over Hhllto. There is, according to Highland tra dition, a curse hanging over Skibo, Scotland, and those who would have it for their own, and there are High land seers who are shaking their heads and eagerly wondering whether it may not In due time alight on Mr. Carnegie and his descendants. The tale Is one of cruel wrong done to the original pos sessors. the Grays, of Skibo, and the Murrays, of Pulrossfe, who, for cen turies, owned the lands now incor porated Into the one estate that Is In the hands of the great Scoteh-Amer Ican. Some 160 years ago the owners were deprived of their lauds by foul means, a curse that brought upon the place, and from that day to this It has kept on changing hands with almost •very generation. The Douls were they who ousted the Grays, but It waa not long that they remained In possession. After one generation they gave place to the Mackaya. who, in turn, were suc ceeded by the Gordona.
