player in the great state of Texas, got his
tank full of red eye" Friday night, and was
robbed, he don't know how, of $3.50 BY some
parties. He told his story yesterday morn

of the parties and last evening arrested a
young clerk in the employ of Mr.. T. L.
Msrsslis, grocer, by the name of Glenn
Showdrsn. He told the officer that he had
won some 500 from Roberts playing poker
and that the money was at his room, where
the officer found it according to the prison.

The young man WAS locked up. Roberts
recolections of what occurred during the

that he should be locked up for thief.
