Max Burkhart, accompanied by lady.
was driving down the Tuscola plank
road towards this city, he was accOstet
by A short, heaVy-set man, near the old
fair grounds, who grasped the horse by
the bit and pointed a revolver towards
the astonIshed inmates of the vehicle,
requested them 10 yield up their val
uables as quickly as possible. AS this
demand was made the highvayman re-
linquished his hold on the horse and
approached the carriage. Mr.. Burk-
hart took N the situation At glance,
aud grasping the whip, administered
couple OF singing blows on the AMI
mails tlanks, which had the effect Of
sending him down the road on gsllop,
followed by couple of shots from the
pistol OF the baffied robber. The mad
pace was maintained until Twelfth-st
was reached, when Mr.. Burkhart sue
ceeded N controlling the frightened
steed, which was covered with foam and
dust. The affair was reported at the
police station, but as Mr.. Burkhart did
not recognize the man, the police nat
urally think there are small hopes of
ever arressing him.-BOy City Press.
