Last night as a little boy namcd
Elias Selka was on bis way home, and
going along Second street, he was be-
set by footpads and robbed Of silver
watch and chain.
ATTEMPT TO ROB.
AS a messenger lad was about to
enter the Manhattan bank, yesterday
afternoon, to deposit some two hun
dred dollars for a Main street firm, he
was jostled by a young scamp, who, in
company with several companions, ev.
identity meant robbery. One Of the
r~ascals struck the lad, and Others APP
peared DESTROYS Of joining into the at
tack. Their plan was, apparently, tc
tumble the boy, scatter his bank notes
and then grab as many as possible in
the confusion. The messenger eluded
