long been noted for his generous gifts to
religious and benevolent enterprises, but
who hes more recently gained considera-

was called upon by q clergyman who was
securing pledges for the building fund Of
a new CHURCH. After presenting the case
he was told to Call upon another gentle
man, with the promise that the manutac-

Highway Robberies.

With the approach Of winter petty thefts
and larcenies are generally on the increase.
and this season is no exception to the rule.
Some way or other crime becomes bold as
the frost closes up the rivers or necessity
makes men desperate. Last night Us q
man residing on Cedar, near Fourth street,
was riding from Rosemount to this city,
he was stopped on the west side by two
men who dragged him from his horse,
tore the buttons off his coats and vest in
their haste to get at his pockets, from
which they took two dollars and a quarter
finding no more money, these desperate
scoundrels proceeded to take the saddle
and bride from the horse, leaving only q
halter on the beast, and with these they
decamped, leaving the astonished wayfar-
or to recover his scattered senses and ride
bareback into town, where he arrived about
nine O'Clock, almost demented from the
scare and the bad whisky he poured down
to keep out the cold and revive his evapo-
rated courage,
On Sunday night another daring robbery
took place on the Mendoza road, between
that town and the railroad bridge in the
upper part of this city. 1t appears that
two men. one of them named Patrick Cas-
tcllo, residing at 113 Western avenue, in
this city, and another whose name we haye
not asccrtained, bu, who We understand
is all employee of Bruno Bcaupre, Esq,
were returning from Mendoza, and had
arrived within about half mile Of the
bridge when three men jumped out Of n
sand cave and one Of them, presenting u
| shot gun at the two men in the wagon de-
mandcd "'heir money or their lif; >" The
money was quickly forthcoming, namely
$3.50 from CASTILLO and $40 from the 9th

ed, leaving The badly scared men to pur-
sue their journey to the city.-St. Paul
