THE FAMOUS GORILLA"
He Was Well known to the Local
Police.

Police.
Yesterday morning the papers an
nounced the death of Robert Roberts,
alias the 'GorilIa," the notorious bank
thief ana pickpOcket, at the hands Of
comrade in crime in Memphis. The
Gorilla" was one of the beSt-knOH u
bank thieves i'll the country. and
aside from that bore the diStinc-
ton of being ''detective- crook"
1t is claimed by those who
are acquainted with criminals and Grim
inalitieS, that "Gorila" was in the pay
of the Chicago detective department.
He was well known here. In 1856, dur
ing the mellow days of the AmeS reg
ime, the "GOrilIa' made his appearance
in the city in company with Pond Cor
rill, Kenny Devine, Tom Gallagher and
Slim wilkins, all notorious crooks. The
entire outfit were arrested by the de-
tectives and ordered to leave the city.
The "GOrll;a" made his appearance
again in tie city during the racing
season of two years ago. He was one
Of the heavy bettols on the Hall-FitZ-
simmons fight which never occurred.
He was also here during the convention
last year, and was thrown into the lock-
up by one of the inspectors after in
duIging in a shooting seance in an up
town saloon. He escaped the work
house by leaving the city, The de-
tectives say that the Gorilla" never
turned trick" in Minneapolis, by
which they mean he never had an OPP
portunity to indulge his thieving pro
pensitieS. In speaking about him last
night, one of the detectives remarked:
"Oh, let the poor fellow rest in peace.
In life he was a goodhearted fellow,
and-and a fine crock"

talented actor, Edwin Arden, in his
stirring scenic play, Eagles Nest" 1t
is now four years since Mr.. Arden has
appeared in this play. During that time
he has successfully presented
number of other strong acting
dramas. Eagles Nest" however, has
long been conceded to be the best
play in which he has ever appeared.
1t is melo-drama written OH strong
lines, and intense to high degree in its
dramatic action. The comedy part of
the play has not been neglected. The
dialogue is described as bright and
pleasing, and the plot is an interesting
story of love, intrigue and ViltainY.
The dialogue and action of the play are
frequently interrupted for the introduce
ton of music and song. Mr.. Arden has
surrounded himself with cast OF sup
porting players that finds few rivals in
the list of dramatic companies. Promi-
nent are mentioned the names of Frank
Losee and Marion Elmore, two players
more than popular with local theater-

CORsER's METHODS.
Suits Contemplated Which May
Throw Light on Them.


Before the Corser creditors had agreed
upon an assignee, the GLOBE announced
that some of the heaviest creditors
would decline to sign a release in case
OF an assignment, and would bring suit
to recover. The Northwestern Ma
tional bank has already taken this
step. The suit has not been
instituted, but the directors have voted
to take that step. It's claim is about
S3S, 600. The directors say they do not
care so much for the money as for the
principle involved. They can stand the
loss, but they are not willing tC appear
as compromising with a man who has
ruined himself, and possibly others,
by wheat gambling. One director says:
"a year ago last July the firm of E.
S. CorSer d Co., over the signature Of
the principal member, made sworn
statement to the bank that it had such
and such assets and such and such liza
bilitieS, and that no member had dol
lar at stake on any speculative venture.
Last August this statement was re-
turned to the firm with request that 1t
renewed, and few days later mem
Der or the firm came in with the state
ment and said that it was still subStan-
lldlly correct. IL have ulcll HldhO ouSll
a statement. and on the strength of it
borrow thousands of dollars, is gross
violation of that honor which must be
so greatly depended upon between man
and man, and this bank prefers to use
all this money, if it should be necessary,
than to help hold Mr.. Corser above
water.
Should the Northwestern National
bank sue to recover its claim, it will
probably not be the only creditor to
bring suit. AS the GLOBE has before
explained, many Of the creditors are not
satisfied with the look of things. Should
these suits be brought, some interesting
facts may be brought out. The public
will probably be given the true mean
ing Of some of the remarks which have
been dropped with the CorSer affair as a
subject. 1t has been alleged that large
sums of money were borrowed by Cor
ser Il Co. after Mr.. Corser must have
known that his affairs were shakY.

The Third district, in the event Of Con-
gresham o. NJ. Mall being sent as min
Ister to Sweden.
"Of course, it is not settled yet that
MI. Hall will be made minister to

looks like it. 1t is understood, however,
that Mr. Hall would have no objection
to going as minister to the land whence
many of his constituents come. The

foreign mission, we will send some
other good and able Democrat to take

"Nho will be nominated to succeed

The New Eoston People Declare
for 1t.
A meeting of the citizens of New Bos-
ton was held last night in Rushford's
hall, at the corner of TWenty-second
and Central avenues northeast. The
meeting was held for the purpose of eX-
pressing sentiment III regard to the
building of a bridge across the railroad
tracks, at the intersection OF Central
avenue and Broadway. The property
owners in the immediate vicinity Of the
proposed bridge are in favor of having
a viaduct built under the tracks, in
stead of the bridge. They claim the APP
proaches Of the latter will conduce to
lessen the values of their property,
from the fact that it will bring it down
to a too low level. The New Brighton
people, however, want the bridge.
They declared for it last night. SO, too,
did Aid. Bradish, chairman of the COM
mlttee on bridges. He favored the
bridge as he always has done. The
meeting was an enthusiastic one, and it
is likely it will bring forth the bridge.

| Insects and Reptiles Which Capt

The Nineteenth Century.
Mygale avicularia is monstrous spi-
der, with body two inches long, and
legs, when expanded, reaching to seven,
who kills small birds and hangs them
I'D in larder of thick web for future
use. This robber carries OH his murder
Gus trade with cunning deXterity, for
which the poor fincheS are no match.
His huge brOwnish body being thickly
covered with coarse gray hairs, and
exactly matching in color the trunk
of the tree in some rough crevIce Of
which he lurks unseen, he is ready
to pounce out at moments
notice upon his hapless prey when once
entangled in the fatal web. Another

lowish lines OH his thick hairy legs. Is
equally rapaciouS, but, carrying OIL his
depredations only at the door of his den
in the brown earth, needs no protecting
color, as he comes out only at night
when all about him is in shadow.
Next we have green snake (Dryophis
fulgida), who, when hunting for green
frogs and lizards, winds in and out
among 1.-The fleXuous stems of creeping
plants, and so closely resembles them in
color as to almost defy detection even
by the keenest eyes," Close at hand
among the bushes may be huge grass

a totally different appearance from that
of his own kindred i'll the forest,or even
in the interior of houses, being in the
exact hue of the ruined stone and mud
walls on which he is found, while the
house lizard is speckled and of an ashy-
gray tint like the ceiling on which he
rests, and for clinging to which his feet
are specially adopted.
