The particulars Of the highway robbery
at West Randolph on Saturday evening
are as follows Mr.. Charles Thurston, n
prominent grocery merchant, was going
to his home on Randolph avenue. and
when only few rods from it, and in less
than 80 rods from the business center
OF the village, he was met by two masked
highwaymen who struck him tremendous
blow with billy and threw cayenne pepper
at him The latter missed him, but the
former grazed his head. He struck one
with his left fist and knocked him from
the sidewalk, while the other grappled
with him with blow with light wooden
money trunk, breaking of the handle.
The other now grappled with him and all
went down. While in this position he
was badly beaten on the back Of his head,
making an ugly and perhaps serious
wound. He shouted murder, and the rob-
bers, Selling the trunk, fled without get
ting his wallet, containing $500, in his in
ner vest pocket Mr.. Thurston then sue
ceeded in reaching his home, and medical
aid was summoned. All efforts to secure
the robbers failed, as no trace of them
could be found. In the stolen trunk were
notes and valuable paper to the amount Of
some 81 900 and $3.50 in specie. The rob-
berry took place at about 9,45 o'clock on
one OF the principal streets of the village,
in sight of the postofiice, and is the most
daring and outrageous affair that has ever
in that part of the State. A
party was arrested Sunday even
ing, but no evidence of his guilt was dis
covered. The robbery is thought to be
the work Of gang of robbers located in
or near West Randolph

IMPURE BREATH.

Among ali the disagreeable consequences
that follow the decay of the teeth, an i'm
pure breath must be the most notifying
and unpleasant to its possessor, and it is
the neutrality-suspicious. offensive in sociei, !;
and yet the cause of it may easily be re-
moved by cleansing your teeth daily with
that justly popular dentrifrice, Fragrant
SOZODONT. 1t purities and sweetens the
hrc-vil, cnols and refreshes the mouth, and
gives pearl-like appearance to the teeth.
Gentlemen who indulge in smoking should
cleanse their teeth with SOZODONT, as
it removes all unpleasant odors Of the weed.
Ask your druggist for it.

The large crowds which the afternoon
concerts of the MINISTRIES drew, have
stimulated Vic Muller to engage in a
new enterprise. He purposes seeing
the CapitCl building commissioners to
get their consent to turn the Capitol
grounds into beer garden during the
summer months. In the event that he
is able to come to satisfactory under
standing with these gentlemen, in which
he will no doubt succeed, it is Vic's in
tention to import a first class German
band, and make all the other necessary
improvements in the square that will
be requisite to impress the average
American with the hallucination, dur
ing the fine summer nights, that he
has been suddenly transplanted to
Teutonia. Mr.. Muller may encounter
some difficulties in demonstrating to
the commissioners the desirability OF
this scheme, but his convincing and
persuasive arguments are bound to have
the effect of bringing them 10 his way
of thinking.

Brutal Treatment Of tEse Prisoners al
san QuiAton.

The Grand Opera House having gone
into bankruptcy, the proprietors in 6
moment Of thoughtlessness, donated the
scenery to the Warden of San Quinten
that it might be used in the little thea
ter which is run by the convicts. The
| inmates Of the prison knew nothing OF
the gift, and the day it arrived the
Warden conceived OF a diaboIicaI plan
to play on the credulity of the prisoners.
With the aid of tie guards he arranged
the scenery of the great polar spectau-
lar drama "The Sea Of Ice'' in such a
way that it filled the entire prison yard.
Then the guards went about the
prison and asked the convicts if they
felt the change in the weather.
'Its the biggest cold snap We ever
had, boys. The snow is five feet deep
outside, and still coming down. The
bay is full Of icebergs, and the old Har-
rvs to pay generally"
In the morning when the prisoners
came to breakfast, they looked out OF
the windows, and were utterly dumb
founded at the scene. The county
seemed one vast stretch of SHOW and ice
as far as the eye could reach. The
aspect Of San Quinten Bay was entire
~ changed. Icebergs a thousand feet
high reared their hoary heads, and the
snow lay piled upon the land close to
the waters edge.
