A CANINE ROBBER.
The Four-F Footed Assistant Of a
Mexican Bandit.
Travellers Seized by the Huge Brute and
Held While His Master Relieved
i Them OF Their
Vniuables.

For over year the people living
within radius of twenty miles OF this
place, says City of Mexico correspond
ent of the st. Louis Globe-Democrat,
have been in state of semipanic over
the strange attacks which have been
made upon travellers who are compelled
to be out after nightfall. There APP
peared to be some demon who took de-
light in mangling belated people and
robbing them. No deaths occurred, but
in each instance the party attacked was
suddenly grasped by the throat by some
apparently powerful animal, which was
SO strong jawcd that it shut off the air
at the first grasp and caused the victim
to faint. When consciousness returned,
in every instance the victim found him
self lying with bleeding throat and
his pockets rified of all their contents.
One man who had occasion to be out
after dark says that IL appeared to be
some long animal when it came leap
ing upon him, and he had barely time
to notice this ere he was borne to the
ground and held with q grasp of the
awful jaws. Manuel Pence a wealthy
ranch owner, made himself an armor
to protect his throat from attack of
whatever it was that caught the people.
Taking the heavy leather stirrup piece
from his saddle he cut collar and
fitted it to his neck in such manner
that it fully covered his whole throat.
Then, with pistol in each hand, he
rode through the dark roads toward the
city. He was in sight Of the lights of
the city and began 10 feel that he had
safely passed the danger when he saw
an animal ieaping toward him. lie
had just time to notice the annual when
1t leaped at his throat and bore him
from his horse to the ground. His
armor served well, however, and the
animal could not get grip on his
throat.
Pence had his revolver ready, and
pressing it against the side Of his assail-
ant fred shot which rolled il over
Then, just as he was rising, he was
again attacked, but this time by man
who struck him with club The blow
was not severe enough to do much
harm, and in the hand-to-hand conflict
which followed Pence got the better Of
his adversary and stunned him. He
bound the man and brought him TO the
city. An investigation showed that
the animal was u great Dane hound,
which had been trained to pull down
the people without killing them His
master sent him after the victims, and
when they were rendered unconscious
he would rob them with ilnpunity, and
