KANSAS CITY. Mo., Sept. 22. A
special to the Times from St. Joseph.

miles north of this city. According to

drawn weapons compelled tbe:engin

One of the men uncoopied : the en
gine and express car from the balance
of the train. The party then climbed
into the cab and the engine and cri
were run up the track. An explosion r
followed. As soon as the sale was
dynamited the
men rushed to the
wrecked car.
The railroad officials assert that they
did not get a. cent as a result but
other reports- are the booty was be
tween $5,000 and $10,000. The train
was loaded with passengers for the
west and the hold-up created a panic.
As soon as the conductor saw the
robbers, he ran back down the track
and secured a hand car on which he
came to St. Joseph and notified the
officers. .
Policemen and deputy sheriffs to the
number of fifty were taken at once. to
the scene armed with riot guns, but
the robbers were gone. ; The hills are

UNARMED MAN PUTS BRUTE TO

NAHCOTTA, Wn., Sept. 22. Osborne
Coulter is now the center of attraction
in this little bur?. A few days ago
he was attacked by t bear and came
out of the fray without a scratch, al
though he did not even have a pocket
knife to defend himself with. He was
in the woods near" Oysterville when
hf walked up on an old bear and two
rubs. The brush was so thick that to
run was out of the question, and 'ne
was compelled to stand his ground.
although!' he cast many furtive glances
rearward in the. hopes of spying an
opening large enough to admit of a
hasty retreat. Seeing that escspe
without an encounter was impossible,
he steadied himself for the onslaught
of Mrs. Bruin. On she came with open
mouth and a hideous growl. Mr. Coul
ter thought his tlm had come, but
. decided: to die fighting. When the old
, bear came within reach of him he gave
. he? a vicious kick, hitting her square
ly on the end of the nose. This un
expected attack startled the bear-and
instead of continuing to push the fight,
she turned and slunk away, followed
by the cubs.

was found by the police there yester
day and dragged from his "home.'"
Eaton is demented. It is a mystery
how the man managed to live. He
slept upon a debris of boards swept in
by the tide. Frequently his bed was
wet from the water ' rushing in. He
managed to live by taking decayed
food that had been thrown in garbage
barrels. This he always secured in
the night time. He was never seen
about during the day. '
For many weeks loungers along the
water front have seen the strange man
climb down through the wharf bridge
at night. They thought nothing of it
nntil Sunday night, when they saw
Eaton carrying .a, banana . stalk witi
several rotten .bananas on it. Then
they told the police and rescued the
man. lie refuses to talk other than
to say that the poNe had no right to
disturb -him in his home. The unfor
tunate man will be sent to an Insane
asylum. -
