He refused to deliver the keys. They
then brought the boy il and compelled
him to open the money drawer. The rob-

Detectives Brown and Marshall, of Law
renee county, arrested Harrison Pisor, wLo
lives near Enon, for being implicated in
the Williamson robbery. Pisor is
brother in-law of Harry Millison and it
was learned that Millison and Rutter had
been at his house on the Thursday evening
preceding the robbery. 1t was also learn
ed that Pisor had worked for Mrs William
son and knew all about the arrangement of
the house, the members Of the family and
the possible chance of securing money.
This information it is claimed, was i'm
parted to Millison and Rutter, and makes
Pisor an accessory to the crime. After
making the arrest the prisoner was taken
before Squire Shanor and given hearing.
Mrs. W Williamson said that Pisor had work
ed for her and while doing duty in that
capacity had good opportunity to be-
come acquainted with the surroundings.

the initial &c upon them. The money is
supposed to have been put there over a
century ago by family named Chamber
lain, who lived on the property.
Mrs. Helen Warne. of GAINESVILLE, o. a
lady of about fifty years of age visited
Beaver Falls one day last week in search
of her two runaway daughters. The girls
had been employed in restaurant, in Zanes-
vile and about two weeks ago ran away in
company with two colored BARRIERS nam ed
Simpson, who had been running barb er
shop in the same building in which the
restaurant was located. 1t seems the girls
had been promised position in Beaver Falls
by their friends OF color at much better
wages than they had been getting at the
restaurant. Be that as it may they came to
Beaver Falls. AS soon as the mother
learned of their departure, she Immediately
gave chase and on her arrival procu red the
services of an officer and proceeded to the
home of the Simpson BARRIERS where she
found one of her daughters, the other hay-
