BOLD RoBBERY.-ChiefP olicr Thorn

Jack. 1t seems that Peters and Jacobs
got q man by the name of Hans Thomp-
son on q string and about 10 o'clock got
Thompson so drunk that he had To be
led to his lodgings. Peters and Jacobs
started from the Tivoli Saloon with
Thompson for VIM. Crosses Eating and
Lodging House. About halfway there
Jacobs left them and Peters took
THOMPSON to bed. Thorndike shad-
owed them ell the while, and slipped
up stairs Just behind. Peters got
Thompson to bed without undressing.
In a short time Thompson was asleep;
Peters ell the time waiting in the room.
Thorndike had by this time crept on
his hands and knees To the bed out of
sight Of Peters. He, Peters, then struck
light and went through Thompscn's
pockets. He took the money from
Thompson's inside breast pocket and
then and there counted it. blew out the
light and started to go out, when Thorn
dixie rose up, placed six-shooter TO
Peters nose and made him give up the
money he had cribbed, amounting to
sl6O25. He then took him to the lock
Nd and then went in pursuit Of Jacobs.
He took "spin around the block, and
on returning to the Jail found Jacobs at
the window, convcrsing with Peters.
and arrested him without further cere-
mony, and locked him up also Sunday
morning Thorndlke and Thompson
went into the chamber and found ten
dollars more that Peters must have
thrown from his hand when arrested, as
il was found ON another bed in the
same room. These fellows have been
shsdowed by Mr.. Thorndike for some
time, and now he has them secured.
Both of the fellows Lawrence and big
Jack" have at different time had orders
from the police authorities to leave the
city, the former. about six months ago
for attempting to rob money drawer
at the Occidental Hotel. He returned,
however. after a short absence, aud
when questioned by the officer regard
ing his re-appearance here, he said he
had been unable to get work at other
points on the Sound, and that he had
Just got work as waiter at Crosses res
taurant. This was found to be the
case, and he was permitted to remain.
Now it is to be hoped that our efficient
chief of police and assistants will be
equally successful in Juggling some of
the sneak thieves that are providing
around the backyards of many OF the
suburban residences. as it is frequent
occurrence that we hear OF petty thefts
being committed.

frequently taken from US by neglected

death, by the use of three or four doses.
