Margaret Rivers and Cora Puntney,
whose vocation it is to assist in enter
! tanning the patrons of the Olympic the
| ater, met with some misfortune yester-
day morning-early. After leaving the
| playhouse Wednesday evening. they
went out to lunch, but reached their
rooms at the Richelieu hotel, on the
corner of Robert and Seventh streets,
about a. IN. Two young men, who
| call themselves o. B. Quaile and A. j.
johnson. and board at the Richelieu.
met and saluted them i'll the hall, as all
parties enjoyed mutual acquaintance.
| Qualle. SO the women say, posed as a
fortune teller. This profession. always
potent with the gentler sex, secured the
| entire Of Mr.. Quaile and his friend
johnson to the apartments. or apart
ment in this case, Of Miss Puntney. Miss
Rivers remained with the party, and the
quartette sat down in Miss Puntney's
| room, while MIR. Quaile told her fortune.
After the session was over the session
Adjourned Sine Noctu,
and both gentlemen withdrew, followed
moment later by Miss Rivers. This
person then repaired 10 her room. 1t is
probable that she desired Mr.. Quaile to
tell her fortune. too, for soon afterward
Mr.. Quaile visited Miss Rivers while
in her room.
When the young women awoke, about
10 O'Clock in the forenoon, they missed
some personal property. Miss Puntney
could not find her gold watch, cnain and
diamond charm therrunto annexed, be-
sides a pOcketbook containing S2.25
and Miss Rivers was minus her pocket
book and Sl1 cash.
Later in the day, so the story goes,
Miss Rivers, happening to pass the room
occupied by Messieurs Quaile and
johnson. thought she saw through the
open door a package in the hands Of
one OF them. She stopped and accused
them of taking Miss PuptneY's watch
and money, for she had not yet missed
her own. Miss Rivers says that the
words were scarcely out OF her mouth
when johnson sprang toward her,
| dragged her into the room, shut the
door and pressed the
- Chilly Muzzle of Revolver
| against her temple, at the same time
| warning her to keep her mouth shut
However tue this may be. the girls
| both informed the Genital police station
| of their loss and the alleged assault by
johnson. A few hours later Officer
| Twohy arrested Quaile, and later still
| apprehended johnson. Both men were
| lodged in the central station. QuaiIe
was charged with disOrderly conduct
| and johnson with assault.

the merchant service. whose beat is
confined within certain limits Oh Crocus
| hill. met j.. II. Jubert about Z o'clock
last evening near $40 Minnesota street,
which is not far from TIVE fifth street.
MIR. Jubert told the police shortly after
wards that Welch used threatening
language to him, and then drew re.
volver and fired into the air. The police
captured MIR. Welch less than half an
hour later i'll the vicinity of Wabasha
and Seventh streets. Welch was intox-
| icated. He was locked up, and will he

ing on the charge of disorderly conduct.
