ROBBERY. An Israelite peddler, named
Jocob Goodman, was met on the road at
+" Alkali Flat" four miles below town, on
Monday last, by two soldiers, who demand
ed his "money or his life." He had but
two dollars and half, which he gave to
them. They, believing that he had more,
demanded it, and upon his protesting that he
had no more, one of them knocked him down
with musket and rhed his pockets The
soldiers are named Thomas Davis and Lewis
Alatin, and belong to the Company of In
fantry that started on Monday morning for
Fort Boise. One of them it appears was in
town at the time the company started, and
sthe other, in charge of sergeant, was sent
by the Captain to town to find the absent
member and take him to his Company. On
their way to overtake the Company, the
sergeant stopped behind short time, and
the two men, going ahead, met the peddler
and committed the robbery. short time
after the deed they reached the camp of the
Company, where they stated that they had
Just killed a Jew" and wanted to get
shaved, so that they might not be identified.
Failing to get razor, one of the men cut
his beard off with pair scissors. On hear
ing of the matter, Lieut.. Hill, (Capt. Powell
being absen) Immediately had the men put
under arrest Word was sent to town by
Goodman, and Sheriff Seitel being informed
of the matter, went to the camp to arrest
the men. Some of the members of the
Company evinced disposition to prevent
the arrest, but they were quieted by the Off
GERS, and the men were given in charge of
the Sheriff, who brought them to town and
lodged them in the county Jail. On Tues
day they had an examination before ESQ.
Horton and were committed to prison, to
await trial at the next term of the District
Court. The crime with which they are
charged is of the same nature as that for
which Waddingham and Adams we're SEN
fenced to the penitentiary for life at the last
term of the Court. Goodman was knocked
senseless by the blow from the musket, but
was not dangerously hurt
