A TRYING SITUATION.

A TRYING SITUATION.
He carefully watched him while getting
the silver. When he placed 1t on the
small shelf at the opening, the man quickly
drew his right hand out OF his pocket, and
leveling revolver at Mr.. Walters head
through the opening in the partition, ex-
claimed: "You g. OF b; II you
make any noise or stir will blow your
brains out" Mr.. Walter, instead OF re-
coiling, as the man naturally expected he
would, quick. as thought caught hold OF
the revolver with both hands and in a
moment wrenched it out OF the mans
hand. The latter then called to his COM
panion, near the door, and he drew a
revolver and made towards Mr.. Walter.
Fearing that they wanted TO enter the
vault at the rear OF the bank, the door OF
which stood open, Mr.. Walter ran TO the
rear end OF the counter where he faced
about Just In time TO see his first assail-
ant climbing over the glass partition on
the counter, and the second one getting up
on the side Of It. Mr.. Walter instantly
fired at the man who had first assailed
him, with the revolver he had taken from
him, but the robber jumped down
behind the counter, just in time to dodge
the ball, which passed through the plate
glass window in the front part OF the bank.
The first thief then caught up the largest
pile OF bank notes on the table and started
to climb over the counter again. Before
the got on the counter Mr.. Walter again
fred at him, and as he climbed up on the
counter, fired again. The man then got
over the partition and fell 10 the floor,
dropping a considerable portion Of the
money he had under his arm, but quickly
regaining his feet he ran out Of the door.
PREPARED FOR LOAD.
While this was going on the second rob.
bcr had climbed over the partition, and
stood on the open account books Of the
bank, on the desk Of the book.keeper, but
as soon as he saw his companion climbing
back over the partition, he followed after
him. It appears that there was still a
third man anda boy standing outside OF
the door, and moment after the first two
men entered the boy followed with a
large market basket, which he quickly
dropped and ran out when Mr.. Walter be-
gan. shooting. The basket, no doubt, was
intended TO place the money In by the
thieves, The three men and the boy
then darted around the corner and ran
down Madison avenue. Before the men
ran away, however, one OF them fred into
the bank, the ball lodging in the wall
near the door.
By this time some people having heard
the shooting ran into the bank, and lind
