A Cheyenne Bank the Victim OF One of
the Coolest Robberiss OF the Year.
CHEYENNE, Wy. T., April ia man
dressed in cowboy garb rode into the
village of Grover, Colo, and hitched his
horse in front Of the Commercial bank.
He then entered the bank. walked d.
rectly to the window Of Cashier G. G.
Smith, pointed revolver at the cashiers
head and coolly ordered him to hand out
all of the cash in sight. There was 500
in view. The cashier counted out $500
and handed it out to the man who
seemed satisfied, and profusedly thanked
the cashier whom he kept covered with
the revolver. Seeing a rifle behind the
cashier, the cowboy ordered it handed
out to him, butt first. The cashier
obeyed this order and the desperate
then, after standing the rife against the
wall, slipped quietly out of the building,
mounted his horse and galloped rapidly
away. Mr.. Smith ran into the street as
soon as he could and fired several rifle
shots at the daring robber, but none of
them took effect, and he made good his
escape. A posse of twelve has since
started in pursuit. There were six per-
sons in the bank at the time of the rob-
berry, but the cowboy did his work 80
quietly and so expeditiously that he at.
tracted no attention.

An Unsuccessful Attempt to Rob q Mime
apolis Bsnk-Several Shots Fired.
MiNNEAPJ dis, April II. About noon
two men walked leisurely into the State
bank. After making a cursory survey
they suddenly whipped out their revolt
vers, and covering the cashier and teller,
one of the two sprang over the counter
and, selling 81, 900 in bills, handed it to
his accomplice, who ran into the street.
About this time the employees Of the
bank had sufficiently recovered their
lf-possession to get their guns and open
a fusilade upon the man who had
jumped the counter, but bad marksman-
ship characterized this phase Of the ex-
element. The man sprang back to the
other side and fired two shots as part
ing salute, but no one was hit. Mean
while the man with the money had been
captured by policeman and all the
money recovered, but the other made
good his escape. The arrested robber
proves to be Douglass, who has been
tending bar at Cardiff & Donaldson's ga
loon.
LATER.-The other young man en-
gagged in the robbery was run down not
hong after its occurrence and placed in
the lookup. He gave his name as James
Henry, and he is 10 years old. Both
prisoners were arraigned in the police
court. They waived examination and
were held in 1900 bail each. Henry's
real name is said to be Frank Thornton.
