rRATORS.-At U late nOuf night OeIOre
last Charles Wolfenstein, who keeps a
saloon at Empire, was on his way
home from Carson, on horseback, when
a buggy passed him, and, after getting
some little distance ahead, stopped,
and when he arrived two men who
rode In it compelled him to halt and
get OFF his horse. They presented pis-
tolls and compelled him to hold up his
hands while one Of the rascalS "went
through" him in TRUE foot-pad style,
obtaining, however, but $40. They
then beat him over the head most un-
mercifully with their pistols, and came
away, leaving him on the ground for
dead. He thinks he must have lain
insensible at least an hour. When he
recovered sufficiently he tried to get
back to Carson, which he was enabled
to do with the assistance Of persons he
found at the first house he came to.
Deputy Sheriff Butler went to the
scene Of the robbery, and near q pool
Of blood he picked up q photograph Of
Pat Hurley, an old State Prison bird.
He got the assistance of Constable
Harkin, and following certain peculi-
arities Of the buggy track. and other
discovered points In the case. they
went to Virginia, and. with the very
efficient aid rendered by the police OF
that city, they shortly succeeded in
arresting Hurley and John Francis. at
4 saloon on C street, just north Of SUIT
ton avenue. They took them down To
Carson. The circumstances indicate
that these are the men guilty of tile
crime, and if it can be fixed upon
them with certainty, the severest pen
atty Of the law is called for In their
case. They are both old couvlcts.
Hurley being discharged from the
State Prison on the 9th Of last month.
aud Francis only last Monday.
