GAGGED, BOUND AND ROBBED.
Daring Highway Robbery on the Coas
Line Railroad.

Daring Highway Robbery On the Coast
Line Railroad.
A daring highway robbery was commit
ted on the Coast Line railroad, near Bon
ayenture yesterday afternoon. Sarah Gill
lison, a respectable appearing and appa-
rently hard-working colored woman, who
lives Aear Thunderbolt, was on her way
to the city when she was accosted by a
young colored man. She simply nodded
to him, and was going on her way when
be rushed up to her, caught her dress at
the neck, and drawing a dangerous4ook-
ing knife, forced her TO accompany him
into the woods.
When safe distance from the road he
bound her hands and feet and put gag
in her mouth. lie then robbed her OF Soc
all the money she had-and took from
her feet a comparatively new PAIR
OF shoes. She had some truck in her bas-
ket which she was bringing to the city
for little son who is employed here. A
part OF this, also, the highwayman took.
| He offered the woman no violence beyond
that necessary to tie her hands and feet.
| She was so frightened by his threats and
! his knife that she did not attempt to pre-
vent him from robbing her.
! After he left her she managed to free
/ herself. She went to Justice Matthews
and had warrant issued for the robbers
arrest. she does not know the robber, but
! thinks she could recognize him.

PITTSBURG'S CLUB WINS.
THE SAVANNAHs DEFEATED BY
A SCORE OF 8 TO A.

'O'Day's Work In the Box Not Up to the
average Beth Clubs Play Poorly
ssVannah's Players not in a Condition
70 be In the DiamOnd-P Oints About
the Game.
Pittsburg defeated Savannah yesterday
oy score Of 8 to 4. The game was the
eighth OF the exhibition series that SaYan-
nan has played. The Pittsburgs batted
the nome nine freely. 0'Day gave seven
men bases on balls, and the score ran up
out OF their reach before the savannahs
hardly knew they were in the game. 1t
was not the kind Of ball playing that the
crowd went out 10 see. Both teams
played lazily. HofOrd, who pitched for the
Augustus last year, neld the box for
the visitors against O'Day for the home
nine. The ssvannahs batted we'll, but
failed to drive the ball safe.
The fielding OF both mines was bad.
FlttsOurg was credited with seven field
ing errors, three wild pitches, one passed
DaIi ana seven men given bases on balls.
LAY pltching was not up to the aver
age. Inc visitors batted him for total
o. Twelve bases. Gillen showed up be-
nina the bat as only Gillen can. Field
prayed nrst without an error. Strict did
not DO so well at second. Murray at
thlrd and Miller, short stop, also played
WITHOUT an error. Mclaughlin, in right
heid, made one of The finest running
catches that has been made on the
grounds. Hotaling, in centre field, did
good work. Moriarity, in the fourth inn
ing, by a wild throw from left field to
third base, let three men in.
Inc Pittsbufgs are a strong team, but
their playing Was not what the crowd ex-
pected that it would be.
Ihere are several points in which the
playing OF the home club could be greatly
improved. In running the bases there IS
noticeable lack of sharp work on the
part OF many of the clue, Sharp base
running is one of the principal factors in
winning victory. One or two of the club
also fail to improve all the opportunities
offered for good play in the infeld. Fail
ure to accept chances in order to keep
the error column clear Is not
only poor ball playing, but unpopular
with the spectators as we'll. Hard work,
even though the errors are more numer-
GUS, never fails of appreciation with in
teihgent onlookers. The hardest work.
ing player usually becomes the most
popular, and the hardest working club,
other things being equal, will nine times
out OF ten win. The exhibition of second
base work by Manning aud Rowe in one
of the Detroit games was an example
which savannah might well take lesson
from. The following is the score OF yes
terday's game:

HORSE THIEVES Ar WORK.
ID. b. Lsster's Horse Stolen frOmrCon-
! Kress Street Lane Last Night.

One OF the coolest and most daring rob-
berries that the police have reported TOT a
long time was perpetrated last night IN
Congress street lane. A valuable horse,
attached to d. b. Testers delivery wagon,
was standing just of Whitaker street, In
the lane and a few feet from the door
of Mr.. Testers store.
A few minutes after O'Clock the driver
went out TO bring up the wagon and
found it nalf way down the lane towards
Barnard street. The horse was gone. A
cOlored man said ne saw small coloFed
boy leading the animal out of the lane
into Barnard street a few minutes before,
but did not notice which way the boy
went. Mr.. Lester at once started out men
in search Of the horse. The police were
notified, but no traces Of the thief was OBJ
tanned.
The colored boy who was seen leading
the horse out OF the lane probably had an
accomplish who put up the job. 1t was
thought likely that the thief would make
for the country and men were started out
ON the Augusta road and the cross roads
south Of the city, with the hope OF heading
him on. They had not returned at mid
night. The police were unable to get any
clue up to that nOur.
The stolen animal was valued by Mr.
Lester at $500. The thief also took the
harness, which was nearly new. A
thorough search will be made to-day, and
every effort will be made TO hunt down
the thief. The JOB is one Of the coolest
that the police have ever met with. The
thief evidently took advantage OF the
crowds on Whitaker aud Barnard streets
to get away unobserved, and slipped the
horse from the wagon and led him out
without attracting the attention that he
would had there been fewer people on the
etrpat

A FIsHERMAN's STRANGE CATCH
aiulatto Babe Picked out of the Canal

MulattO Babe Picked Out of the Canal
With a Ffsh Line.
Washington Bond, colored, went fishing
yesterday morning in the Ogeechee canal.
Batting his hook he cast it skillfully in
the sluggish water between the locks.
tie did not have much luck at first, and
wondering why he did not get a bite,
Bond pulled up his line TO see if the bait
was of of his hook. He soon found out that
he had something on the end OF his line,
and when he got it up above the top OF
the water he saw he had hooked a bag,
1t Is no uncommon thing TO catch old
shoes and tin cans, but Bond never caught
a sack before. Opening it cautiously he
was amazed at seeing light mulatt0
babe, with only napkin around it.
Coroner Dixon was notified and he held
an inquest. There was no means OF iden-
tifying the infant and the jury rendered
a verdict Of death by drowning. The
body looked as though It had not been in
the water long, and the child did not seem
70 have been but few hours old when
thrown into the canal.
A c0lored woman at Farm and New
streets asked to be allowed to dress the
infant for burial, and IN the afternoon the
Coroner had it buried.

EonYentinn.

The spring meeting of the General Time
Convention will be held at the Grand
hotel, Cincinnati, o., Wednesday, April
II. This convention was first organized
for the express purpose of arranging for
the moving OF through trains from Eastern

ton of the date for making general
changes in time schedules. During the
last two or three years, however, other
subjects of interest to all railway lines in
this country, such as standard time, uni
form signals, uniform train rules, etc.,
have been discussed and adVantageously
acted upon. 1t has, therefore, been de-
cided that hereafter, in addition TO the
subject OF through trains and general
change Of time, the General Time Conven-
tion take up, discuss and formulate re-
concentrations upon such general sub
jects as are of mutual interest to the OPP
Grating departments of the various roads
