Last night as Ruby Whitson. a young
gentleman, was going home from his
work at McKane & Bunker's about z
O'Clock he was attacked by some one
who stepped from behind a hedge di-
rectly behind him. The would-be rob-
ber commanded Whitson to hold up but
instead OF doing so he turned round and
told his aseailant to go to whore frost
never comes and turned to walk on. He
had hardly turned round before whiz
went a missile directly over his scalp,
cutting the whole crown from his hat.
Whiteon thought it about time to pull
out and did 80 at quarter-horse gait
with the highwayman in close pursuit.
Il is safe to say that Whitson distanced
his pursuer, for when he landed full
length in the front door of his fathers
house the other fellow was no where to
be seen. Young Whitson was within a
couple OF blocks from home when at
tackled. He is the son of Trustee Whit
eon.

superior weight carried the ball yard by

the ball and Day charged for 10 yards.
