OF a room they found what they were evil

guarded by the owners. The presence OF
40 large q sum In the house was.explained
by Mr., WorkeBour, who said that he be-
came frightened by the reports OF breaking
banks several years ago, and drew the
money from the Bank OF Wheeling. where
he had previously kept it. The old couple
were completely broken down by their
loss and suffered considerable bodily pain
from the rough treatment received at the
hands Of the young scoundrels. After the
robbers had left the premises the victims
freed themselves by strenuous Efforts. Mr..
Workepour makes livelihood by hauling
gram from the brewery and peddling II
throughout the city. and had accumulated
the money by years OF frugal saving.
