MORE TRAIN ROBBERS. Maaknd Robber Again Raid a Train Near Fort Worth, Tex. Probably the Old Gang. Fort Worth, fcept. 21.

Tho hurried departure of mounted officers from the jail and city bull for the depot last night ut 8:30 caused a sensation up town, which was greatly increased wheu little later the Texas Paeitio coast-bound train, the California St. Louis express, pulled in, und it was learned that another train robbery had taken place, und soon tho platform at the union depot was a mass of people all surging toward the express car, the door of which was found full of Winchester bul-lot holes. Engineer Baker, Fireman VVylie, Conductor Garrett and Express Messenger Moloney were centers of attraction as they told the story of tho last robbery. Engineer Baker says ho had just pulled out from Ben Brook station, ton miles west of Fort Worth, when a tall, smoothly shaven, poorly dressed, sandy haired man jumped into his cab on one side and a medium sized man with a face partly covered by something red on the other. Both had Winchesters.

The tall ono said: "Stop where you stopped boforo," which convinced Baker that the man was tho leader of tho gang which had robbed the train June 8. Baker said to ttiis man, "How much did you fellows get in your last haul," and the thief answered, "Wo are not the same gang." "How did you know me then, and how did you know wlioro to stool" wo found that out." The locomotive and tender with tho mail and express cars were now over tho trestle and the smoking car standing over Mary's creek separated tho two day couches and the sleeping car from them. No one could got out of tlio smoker or cross ttie creek from the coaches to tho rear. Here Baker was ordered to stop und ho and the lire-man hustled out of the cab. "We don't want to hurt you folks at all.

Only obey orders and you aro safe," was the tall man's instructions. Passing to the express car the same fellow said, "Messenger, open your door or we'll open it for you." There being no response a coal pick from Ihe locomotive was brought and blow nfter blow rang out as the heaviest robber began to break it in. He stopped and tho chief gave orders lo fire througn the door when three of the men pulled their Winchesters until ten or twelve shots went in, several of them coming very near Moloney, who, cool and eel! was hidiuit money package as fast as ho could. Tho coal pick began its work again and ut last the door was thrown open. One ot the robbers wilh a handkerchief tied around the lower part of his face jumped iu and throwing down his gun said: "You give us a of a sight of trouble.

Open that safe quick." The safe was opened, und what Maloney had thought best to leave was taken. The robber jumped out, and while ono of thosu outside covered the 'messenger the ol tiers went to the mail coach and soon compelled Griffin and Stewart, the postal clerks, to give up the registered packages. Then ordering Baker and Wylie back into tho cab tho men told Baker to pull out, and hastily departed. Their boodle was shoved into an old gunny sack and thrown over the shoulder of the leader. The coaches were not entered.

A deputy sheriff from Hood County was on the train and one other man was armed, but it was too dark to do any shooting. All the registered packages for Fort Worth are gone, and it is said that forty odd packages were stolen. The loss is said to be by some, while othors place it at from slJOO to KANSAS STATE NEWS.

Captain Quintan formerly of the regular army, and a newspaper man well-known in Kansas City, recently shot his young wife at Leavenworth, but fortunately not inflicting a fatal wound.

Thero were conflicting accounts as to tho exact cause for tho act. Whilo in Kan sub City some five or six years ago, Captain Camp-boll was married to his present wife, who was then only sixteen years old. He had but roceutly taken a position on the Sun, a new evening paper at Leavenworth. Toi'kka. has an embryo Anarchist, named Boutwell, who has boen giving the police no little trouble.

Recently ho refused to furnish names of mon boarding with him so that tax notices could be served on them. For this he was arrested, and threw a hatchet at the officer. With the help of two men Boutwell was loaded in a wagon and hauled to jail. He had to bo carried before the police justice, and refused to answer questions or even speak. The jiidgo fined him $100 aud ordered him to the stone gung.

The officers hud to drag him, and on his refusal to work he was placed in closo confinement. He regrets that ho is not one of the Chicago Anarchists to be hangod and becomo-a martyr. Members of the Sovereign Grand Lodge, I. O. O.

had a regiilur ovation on their passage through Kansas on their way to Denver. Bins were opened at Washington on the 10th for joiner work, roof tiling and additional flooring for tho public building at Leavenworth. There were bidders from a number of places, but the bid of J. McGon-igle, of Leavenworth, was tho lowest. A Leavenworth officer recently stopped a lot, of children having a "play show," for which they charged a penny admission, until a city license was obtained.

General Black, Commissioner of Pensions, will visit Kansas about October 12, on which occasion he will accompany the board of managers of the National Soldiers' Homo.

The Democrats of the Bay State met here yesterday with a good attendance.

The committee on permanent organization reported for chair, muu, James H. French, of Gloucester; sec-returies, A. B. Alger, P. J.

Donovan, of Boston, and P. J. Kenne.ly, Holyoko. After an address from the chairman, Senator llhodes nominated H. B.

Lovcring, and A. Alvord nominalod William E. Kussell for Governor, and an informal ballot was ordered. It resulted as follows: Whole number, necessary for choice, 501; Love ring, 038; Russell, 303. The ballot was declared formal and Lovering announced as the nominee unanimously.

After arc-cess the committee on the balance of the ticket reported us follows: Lieutenant-Governor, Walter E. Cutting, of Pittsileld; Secretary of State, John F. Murphy, of Lowell; Treasurer, Henry C. Thatcher, of Yarmouth; Attorney-General, John W. Corcoran, of Clinton; Auditor, William F.

Cook, of Springtiold. Hon. Edward Avery reported tho following platform, which was unanimously adopted First The Democrats of Massachusetts, in convention assembled, ongratulat'j their fellow-countrymen that under the administration of a Democratic President peace, concord and fraternity have been restored and prevail throughout the land; that ttie rights of every citizen under the national law nro sicredly maintained without regard to race, creed or color; that on economical, honest and wise policy hus advanced the credit of the country at home and abroad, und notwithstanding the accumulation in the National treasury of vast surplus revenue, has thus fur warded off a financial crisis; that millions of acres of the public lands recklessly granted to corporate monopolies have been restored to the people that the Constitution and the Uoion have again become the pride of every American and recognized us the sources of individual liberty anil national progress, prosperity aud honor; and finally, that we are blessed in having a National President who knows 'no North, no South, no East, no but discharges the duties of his exalted station In strict conformity to the Constitution and the laws and with unswerving fidelity to his convictions of what 14 fight and for the best interests of tho whole people. Second As Democrats we return our thanks to the President for his adherence to tho promises ant pledges made on his behalf before election, for his fidelity to the principles enunciated by the convention that placed him in nomination, und for demonstrating the wisdom of those principles when applied to the practical administration of the Government. As citizens tve Kiv him our thanks for an honest and economical administration, national spirit, strong and vigorous in uctlon; in tine an administration which has enhanced tho honor and diguiiy of the Nation, renewed our faiih in the capacity of free government und added new luster to the name of American citizens.

As Democrats and citizens we pledge to him and to his Administration our unqualilled support. Third It being an unquestionable principle that the business of tho Government should be conducted with the same care as personal business matters; therefore, we believe that no business can tie successfully carried on unless those engaged in its prosecution act in harmony. We believe that no business man would employ or retain in his employ any person who was known to be in the position of a rival who depreciated his business capacity, undermined liis credit or disclosed his secrets. We believe no admiidstr.ition of the Government can be successful unless those who aro entrusted with the execution of Its affairs arc interested in its success, approve of its policy and believe in its principles. We beliuve all the important oftlccs iu the civil-service should lie tilled by competent persons in political sympathy with the Administration; that all oilier olilces not representative in character should be tilled by persons selected for their Illness, capacity and intelligence; that the dispensing of patronage should neither be a tax upon the time of our public men nor the instrument of their ambition.

We believe that no oltlcer should be retained in tho public service who has shown himself an offensive partisan, and we think a sense of propriety to the Administration, of which they are a part, re quires the F- deral olllceholders representing the Administration iu this State to discharge from the public service any of their subordinates against whom charges of offensive partisanship can lie substantiated. Fourth We believe that the power of Congress to tax the poople is limited by the Constitution to the requirements of the Government; that any system of taxation which produces a revenue beyond that is unwise and dangerous. It throws unnecessary burdens on the people and enhances tho cost of living; it encourages needless and extravagant appropriations by Congress and by withdrawing from general circulation money that Bhould he actively employed embarrasses trade and may be the cause of a disastrous financial crisis. We do not advocate free trade but favor and desire a revision of tho present unjust and burdensome tariff laws. We heartily approve of the following recommendation of the President: "Tho Increasing and unnecessary surplus should be released to the people by an amendment to our revenue laws, which shall cheapen the price of the necessaries of life aud give freer entrance to such imported materials as may be manufactured into marketable commodities." We believe the income derived by the Government from the internal revenue tax should be applied to discharge the burdens Imposed on the people by the late war.

Fifth Wo cordially approve of those acts of Congress which forbid the Importation of contract labor and require the return of dlsreput-able, vicious and criminal persons: but we welcome the honest and industrious Immigrant who comes with the intent to secure for himself und children a home and place of refuge from despotism. The sixth plank extends sympathy to Ireland tho seventh demands the abolishment of the poll tax iu the State, aud the eighth acknowledges obligations to tho wage earners aud pledges to them earnest efforts in procuring such legislation as will best promote their interests. Tho ninth aud last plank endorses the candidates. The following were elected delegates at largo to the National Convention: P. A.

Collins, Boston; Jonas H. French, Gloucester; John W. Cummings, Fall River; Josiah G. AbboU, Boston. The following ulternntes were chosen: Charles G.

Lewis, Framingham; James E. Delaney, Holyoke; Godfrey Morse, Boston, and John R. Thayer, Worcester. Tight Money Market. New York, Sept.

21. Tho condition of the money market is exciting great interest at present. "Tight money" was the phrase on everybody's lips yesterday. V. K.

Stevenson, the real estate man, sent a note of warning to President Cloveland yesterday, which is exciting considerable comment and creating some merriment. The Brothers Wonnser were tolling at the Windsor Inst night that they had telegraphed the President to buy a little Reading to mix in with the 4s. General lllack. Washington, Sept. 20.

There is some doubt as to whether General Black will be able to go to St. Louis. Ho has been confined to his home with a severe attack of inflammatory rhoumutism, tho first touchos of which appeared whilo he was a guest of Stilson Hutchins, in New Hampshire. He recovered from that attack, but his journey homo and the general conditions of the climate here affected him so that ho was Obliged to take his bed. He is reported this morning as being very much better and able to sit tip, but will not bo in his office for some days.

It is extremely doubtful if his physician will allow the journey to St. Louis, as his physical condition is not of the best at any time.

We A correspondent of the National Stockman, Pittsburg, asks "Why does the farmer on the sandy soil raise And then he goes on to answer it: "Because experience has taught him that the rye crop can be made to bring fertility to his soil.

It can be pastured and plowed under in such a way that without losing the use of the land a single season, a green coat of manure may be given to the soil. In some respects rye is superior to clover in renovating or fertilizing lands. Sown in autumn it affords excellent pasturage up to the mid dle of the next summer season. Unlike other grains, it may be fed upon long and continuously by stock without in jury to root-bed. When the stock is re moved, it will throw up a rank growth of top that may then be plowed under for fertilizing.

It affords very early pasturage In spring when needed. The feeding down of this by stock is no drain upon the soil to speak of. The small per cent, that goes into bone, flesh and milk produces a hardly perceptible effect upon the land, even during long terms of pasturage, so long as the drop' pings go back to the soil. Six or eight weeks of such pasturage is very nearly equal in value to a fair crop ot any kind, and the heavy after-growth that can be plowed under in earl autumn from the same field is worth as much as an ordi nary coat of manure. The land will show the good effects of it for years af terward.

It seems to put the land in the best kind of tilth, as well as to fertilize it. Rye roots penetrate down into the soil, and bring up stores of fertility for after plant growth, while the tops seem to do the same good work in the atmosphere. A Pleasant Neighborhood. "Isthat family tllat has moved in next door neighborly?" asked one Sioux Falls woman of another. "Yes, they appear to be.

They've borrowed flour of me twice, tea once and sugar three times. They have got our coffee mill and one tub and the hatchet and two lengths of the stove-pipe and the baby carriage aud the woman empties all her swill over the fence in our yard and I see her coming across now to hang her clothes on our line." "I shouldn't think you would like to have them borrow things so much and act quite so free." "Oh I don't worry much about it. We've got their mop and about half of their dishes and their rolling pin and washing machine, and the other day I borrowed ten sticks of wood from them, and each afternoon our hired girl puts on better clothes than the woman has to her back and walks up and down on the side walk, and to-nignt I'm going to put out poison for their dog. we're getting along very nicely and I think they are going to be very pleasant neighbors. This always was a good neighborhood." Dakota Bell.

Ilreertlng Jtutlalocx for market. Buffalo meat, which was once a drug on the market, and cheaper than beef by more than one half, is now on accountof its scarcity, esteemed a luxury by a class of people who believe that anything that is expensive and hard to get must be good. Time was when a western game dealer was glad to get 4 cents a pound for buffalo beef. Now he could get 23 cents a pound. To meet the demand, we learn that a party in Kansas, and another in Dakota, have gone into the business of breeding buffaloes for the market, aud expect to put gome two year old heifers on sale next spring.

It is strange how the people will long for the hard to get. For in stance, in St Louis no one thinks of eating wild pigeons, and there are scarcely any put on sale, because New York and Boston take all that can be shipped even should the amount sum up to 5,000 barrels in a single season. New York Market Journal. The latest scheme to swindle the farmer is being perpetrated under the guise of a so-called society to prevent the killing of birds. A man invades the rural home, talks glibly about the good being done for the farmer by the birds, and ends by asking him to sign a pledge not to kill a bird in twelve months.

The pledge, with a little manipulation, turns up in the way of a promissory note and makes trouble. Prairie (jirovc. Prairie Grove, Sept. 22d, 18S7. Beautiful weather.
