"A Hold-Up Which Was Not Hold

The detective department has made
no arrests in the numerous cases of
highway robbery reported in the past
week, but it Is giving out story about
a prominent citizen who scared off two
masked highwaymen last Tuesday
plight. According to its statements,
the prominent citizen was commanded
to halt by two thugs at the corner of
Sibley and Ninth streets. Instead of
throwing up his hands, the victim swore
a savage oath and made motion as if
to draw revolver, at W hich the high
waymen fled. The only reason the
attempted robbery was given out was
because the thieves secured nothing.
If they had, it would have been sup
pressed, as hundreds of cases have
been.

The "boys." as Chief Garvin and
Chief of Detectives McGinn call the
highwaymen who have heen holding

junior member of the well-known fur
firm of Ransom & Horton. and Mr..
Horton is short Sc in cas- and valu-
able gold watch, together with a gold
chain and charm. He fooled the thugs,
however. for in an inside pocket of his
vest there was roll of bills amounting
to $50, which was overlooked in the
search.
Shortly after o'clock Mr.. Horton,
who lives at GA Holly avenue. left a
cable car at the corner of Dale and
Selby avenue. He walked south on
Dale street. but had gone only block
when TWO men. with masks over their
faces and revolvers in their hands,
ordered him to halt and throw up his
hands. While one of the thugs kept
the muzzle Of a revolver pressed against
his head the other made systematic
search of Mr.. Horizons clothing. The
sum of Sc in silver was taken from
his pockets and then his vest was
unbuttoned and his gold watch. chain
and charm were taken by the fellow
searching him and poeketed. Mr.. Hor-
ton was then faced about and told to
walk off briskly in the direction of
SelbY avenue and not to look back or
make any cutlery under penalty of being
bored full of holes. He did as told and
the two thugs went the other way at
lively gait. Mr.. Horton related his ex-
perience at the Selby avenue power
house and also to the police at the Ron
do street station. The detectives were
notified, but up to late hour the "boys"
had not been captured.

Fashion Notes.

A great many shawls are being worn,
and it is predicted that the shawl,
which has been practically abandoned
for years past, will again become a
fashionable wrap The great objection
to this is that shawls are becoming to
but very few persons They are, how
ever, among the most convenient and
manageable of wraps
Who shall tell what the next model
for the blouse is going to be? There is
now almost endless variety, bnt as this
garment is the popular fancy of the
moment, the ingenuity of the designer
is on the alert for something new, and
the devotee to this pretty accessory is
always ready .to.receive something new
and striking with the greatest enthu-
siaSm,

ering of the moment, In breezy au-
tumn days it is the most comfortable

Toast for InValids.

There is universal idea that bolted
wheat flour is injurious to the dyspep-
tic. This is not strictly true, and is
certainly erroneous in regard to bolted
flour prepared in toast. 1t is the mi
crobes of the starch which produce ir-
ritating acids in the stomach and thus
cause the trouble. Where bread is
thoroughly baked the fermentation of
the dough is temporarily arrested, but
is completely destroyed only in the
crusts and browner portions of the loaf
When bread containing the large pro
portion of starch which bolted wheat
does is taken into the stomach the heat
of the stomach itself sets up the pro.
cess of fermentation in the parts of the
bread which lacks thorough cooking.
The interior of any white loaf is espec.
tally left open to this objection, and all
ordinarily baked bread, whether white
or brown, is also subject to the same
objection to certain extent, Where
bread is stale, cut thin and toasted
brown this power of lamentations to-
tally stopped, hence the value of toast
for invalids is not purely imaginary
one. N. Y. Tribune
