AN EASY TRADE, WHEN ONCE LEARNED
The Reno (Nev.) Journal says /:


The Reno New Journal says:
John Marshall one of the Sierra Valley
stage robbers whom Constable Nash ar.
rested at Wadsworth, was quite cheerful
over the matter. He told Nash that it was
a mistaken idea that it required brave
man to rob a stage. In nine cases out of
ten, he said, it neither requires nerve nor
firearms TO accomplish the job; that it
was lots of fun to see the fellows weaken
the moment the command was given to
halt. He says one man is as good as fifty
at that business, for neither the driver nor
the passengers ever know how many rob-
bers there are, and if they see but one they
are sure to think there is an army in re.
serve. He said he robbed the Sierra VAL
ley stage both times at about the same
place with an old pistol that wouldn't
shoot anything. and he thinks an ordinary
candlestick would have answered the Pur.
pose; and, in fact, be thinks the only mis-
take he made in the whole business was in
not playing lone hand,
