AN OLD MAN S STORY. Koobsd of nin Money find Suff rlas from IrJnrlee.Uo Is Tryln to Oet Bacic to Canada. Thcro was an old man being cared for at police headqnortcrs Saturday , who was evidently sofforing from in- juricn received , and seemed In aomo rc pcoo ) lo bo fiffectod in mind. Uo was found wandering abont at the transfer withont money or baggsgo , but had In his possession tickets over the Ohicago nnd Hock Island to Chicago - cage , and from there to Montreal. Ills utory is that ho i a Frenchman , und hio Umily live in Montreal Ho is sixty II vo years of ago , nnd about a year ago last fall ho wont to Colorado , nnd has b'oen there until Into this fall , when ho utnrlod b ck for his Montreal homo. Ho nays ho had fbaut $300 in money , but that on the train there wan a light between two young men nnd bo gutting fright- onocl , jumped off , and in falling hurt himsnlf badly. After proceeding ns best ho could on foH lor a distance ho was mot by two young fjllp * , who nskod him whcro ho was going , and on his tolling them , they wanted to know if ho hud nny money co got there with. Ho told them ho had , nnd they then made him glvo it to them , ono of them palling n revolver on him. Ho got iinally to a rnilway station , nnd oimo through on the train to Omahs , whnro ho was cared tornt the hospital for two or three woekn , his injuries received when ho jumped from the train cnuoing him to bo very ill. Af tor recovering somewhat ho crvmo over this to eldo His tickets wore ran out , the dnto of thnir expir ation having passed. Mr. Stovotia yesterday extended the tiokotn. nnd nfter the police cnrod for the old man during the day , ho was started on the afternoon train for the east. On top of. the old man's head is qnilo an injure Ht1 no complains of his nock hurting him badly.
