At WORK.
QUITE AN EXTENSIVE RAID WEDNESDAY,
AFTERNOON AND MIGHT.
Several RObbsries Up in Jefferson County, Ohio,
and One in THIS City, All Evidently by
The Same Parties

A party Of four thieves made quite
an extensive raid, 10 this vicinity, Wed
nesday afternoon and night, and yester-
Gay morning.
Their exploits began over in Jetfer-
son. county, O., aud ended 10 this city,
when they forced an entrance into the
"Pewlky" passenger station, just be-
fore daybreak.
The thieves first made their appear
ance Monday night, at Mingo, where
they invaded the C. & P. railroad sta
ton, and drilled the safe. About the
time they were ready to blow it, they
were frightened off by an irate and pro-
fame passenger who had intended get
ting of at Steubenvilie, but, had been
carried past his station.
The next heard Of the thieves was at
the farm of a man named McCulloch,
near Brilliant, they sleeping in MS barn.
and raiding Mrs. LaZeGr's milk house.
Wednesday afternoon. between and.
3 o'clock, they went to the home OF
Alex. Smith, ex-Sheritf OF Jefferson
county, while the family was absent, In
attendance at the Decoration Day eXer-
cises at New Alexandria. They ran
sacked the whole house, stealing a
gold hunting case watch and two
silver watches, one hunting case
and one open-face, all being key
winders. The gold watch belonged to
Mrs. Smith, and was purchased in Steu-
benville In 1887. They also took Mrs
Smiths new Shoes asd slippers, two or
three dollars in charge, kept in a cup
in the cupboard, Mr.. Smiths pocket
book, containing valuable notes and pa
perS, aud an old style Smith ~ Wesson
revolver which has history, Mr.. Smith
having taken 1t from one Of the burg
lars who robbed the CadiZ bank Of S40,-
900 some twenty-five years ago. After
footing the house the thieves set the
table and ate d SQuara meal. The men
were seen in the vicinity OF Smiths
house, and were trailed 10
the river, where they are be-
lisved TO have attempted to rob another
railroad station or two. They then
crossed the river at Beach Bottom, and
came down 10 this city, where they
pried open the door of the ladies' wait
ing room, at the "Pewiky" station,
with a jimmy, aud secured about eight
dollars in coppers from the Office. The
jimmy was found in the ticket Office
yesterday morning.
Mr.. Smith and a railroad detective
came here y streday and the police are
LOOKING up the case.

A SHOOTING OCRAPB
OVER At MARTINS TERRY, YESTERDAY
EVENING.
Which Bears All the Characteristics Of Dslib-
ate Attempt at Murdsr-Ths Grim
inals Escape.

Monday afternoon q short, heavy set
white man, whose name could not be
learned, walked into the notorious
Brown Front saloon, at Martins Ferry,
aud demanded q five cent glass Of
whiskey Of the colored bartender, Silas
Young. Young told him he could not
sell him a five cent glass, and the fellow
got hot and left, threatening to "fx"
him. he met Young on the street sew
eral times after that, and Al
ways passed some insulting remark.
Last night as Young was passing
down First street, he met this
fellow and two others standing at the
corner Of Fayette. and First streets.
The man who had It in for the bar
tender stopped Young and tried to
pick a quarrel. but Young showed him
away, when one of the other fellows
spoke up and said: Don't hit him, or
I'll fill you as full OF holes as sieve!"
Young went on and the crowd followed
him, and the short man grabbed him
again and Young gave him another
shove, when the fellow pulled out re-
volver and threw IL at Young, striking
him above the left eye, cutting a
small cash. Young grabbed the
revolver from the ground and started
on a run up First street with the three
fellows after him, yelling drop that
gun" One Of them yelled "Shoot the
damn black niger" when one of the
other fellows pulled revolver and fired
at him. Fortunately the bullet went
wide OF its mark, striking the side OF
S. Huskin's house, penetrating the
weather boarding, plasterinR, and all
and striking the top of the door on the
opposite side Of the room.
Young was brought up to Jail, where
his wound was dressed, and the officers
started on a chase after the three men,
but nobody seemed to know where they
went.
1t is said by people living in that
neighborhood that the fellow that
threw the gun at Young came out of the
alley back OF First street just after the
police had passed by and walked down
Fayette to First and stood on the cor
ner a few minutes and then walked
down First into the Brown Front and
was not seen afterwards.

STRUCK A ~CEAoK. ]"
Stranger Gives Osce stAtIer = Few
Points on Pool.


Yesterday afternoon a stranger, ap-
parently about twenty-seven years OF
age. strolled in the Mcclure House
billiard parlor. He wore a negiigee
shirt, and his dress and general ap-
pearance was that of mechanic. He
invited Osce Statler to join him in a
game OF pool, an invitation which was
promptly accepted. The stranger put
up a fairly good game, but there was
nothing in his playing to Indicate the
remarkable ability which developed
later.
After playing one or two games, the
stranger suggested that they play Tor
dollar a side. One of Osce's friends ex-
pressed a willingness to back him for
five times that sum, and the stranger.
agreed. A number Of dead game"
sports elbowed their way TO the front,
all anxious to back Osce. The stranger
covered all the bets to the amount
of $40 or $50, and the crowd
dropped back TO see the local crack
wipe no the earth with the stranger.
1t was not long, however, until suck
err" stock went up, away above par.
The game was fifty balls, continuous
pool. Osce led of with ten balls. Then
the stranger pocketed five of the ivory
spheres and made three scratches, leav-
ing the score 10 10 2. He succeeded In
getting few more modest wsgers, and
then settled down to work. He handled
his cue with the dexterity OF a Clear
water, and had pocketed so balls while
his opponent scored but 10. The
''Where-am-I-at" expression on the
faces OF the boys who had fallen over
each other in their anxiety TO get slice
of that dead sure thing" was amusing.
The stranger and Osce played an
other game, of 100 balls, and the former
won, Statler pocketing SO. Last night
one hundred men paid twenty-five
cents each, TO witness a game between
Mr.. Manning, a crack shot OF Pitts
burg, and the unknown" The latter
gave odds of ITO to Is, and ran out his
game when his opponent had but IS
balls. Considerable money changed
hands on the result. The stranger de-
clined to give his name or residence,
but said he had been travelling over the
country for fifteen years.
