Barroom, Then Escaped.

tire family of the hotel-keeper at the
points of revolvers.
Hotel-Keeper Blanch and his wife and
young children slept in rooms adjoining
the barroom, on the first floor.
The hotel-keeper was aroused from his
sleep by hearing n noise, and when he
turned up the lamp he saw some one
pushing open the door. against which
was a childs cradle. The youngest child
of the family was asleep in this cradle.
Before Blanch could realize It. three
men, wearing masks, had forced their
way into the room.
Blanch's wife began to scream, and
| one of the robbers held revolver
close to her head and threatened to
blow her brains out If she didn't keep
quiet.
Another of the burglars took two re-
volvers from under Blanch's pillow, APP
parently knowing they were there.
The robbers then commanded Blanch
| to give up all the money he had in the
house. The man who acted as spokes-
man told Blanch If he did not promptly
| comply with their request he and his
whole family would be murdered.
The hotel-keeper then surrendered all
the money he had. The thieves even
took the contents of the children's saw
ings banks.
Before the burglars went away they
helped themselves to liquor and cigars
| in the barroom.
When they were ready to leave. they
told Blanch and his wife that II they at.

make known the daring robbery to thei,
neighbors until after daylight this morn

gether about 800 In cash. He did not
see the faces OF either of the men. but

1T is a fortunate thing for man and the rest
OF the animal kingdom" said the naturalist
that no large wild animal has mouth con-

ing an edge as smooth and straight as II 1t had
been cut with knifo That la duo to the
peculiar and formidable mouth he has. The
snail eats with his tongue and the roof OF his
mouth. The tongue is a ribbon which the
snail keeps In coil in his mouth. This tongue
is in reality n band saw. with the teeth on
the surface instead Of on the edge Tho
teeth are SO small that as many as 10000
OF them have been found on ono
snail's tongue. They are exceedingly sharp.
and only few Of them are used at time Not
exactly only few OF them. but q few Of them
