ABOUT THE HOTELS.

-
There are plenty of desperate char
acters up in the coal regions and it
takes men of nerve and daring to
handle them. 1t is q good field for
the detectives, and they are kept
pretty busy all the time: Rarely do
they make an arrest without des-
perate encounter, and il, is NOT ,ipffre-
quently the case that they bring their
man home dead. Yesterday nthe cor
ridor OF the Hotel Felix stood a mid
died aged man talking with q group
of friends. He tipped, the beam at
about 200 pounds, wore e. heavy
moustache, and SLOUGH hat, and is
one of the best made. men from a
country of. well made men, His
name is Eugene Robertson, and he is
detective. Modest and retiring as he
seems, he is a terror to the evil, doors
of the coal regions. You will notice
that the thumb of his right hand is
almost gone. Well that was done
by the OUTLAW Moran, with q pistol,
but he never lived TO boast of Ill.
Mr.. Robertson left last night for his
field of operations. .'9'!' - ~ ~,
