HOLD=UP
Daring Raid on a Mission
Grocery=Store.
Patrick F. Gleason and Two of His
Customers Robbed by Three
Masked Men,.

Mission grocers are having a hard time
OF it. A week ago Michael Blow, on
Twenty-fifth and Cspp streets, was held
up by two robbers and his till robbed of
$50. but four days later they were arrested
by Policemen Carr and Joseph and are
now awaiting their preliminary examina-
ton. Both robbers were we'll known in
the Mission.
On Sunday night. Patrick F. Gleason,
who has a grocery and saloon on the
southeast corner OF Twenty-fifth and aar-
rison streets, was the victim of three bold
and daring robbers.
About 10 O'clock three men entered the
store. One of them pointed a pistol at
Gleason aud in language not to be mis-
taken ordered him to open his cash
drawer. The man had white handker-
chiefs covering their faces, but Gleason
thought they were playing q practical
joke upon him, as at the time two custom
ers, M. Tobin, and j. f. Rafferty, of 2907
Harrison street, were in the barroom.
He was quickly undeceived when another
OF the robbers struck him violent blow
over he head with bottle. stunning him.

Tobin and Rafferty,. TobiD had no money
upon him, but they took 81 out OF Raj
ferty's pockets Then they quietly left
the store with the injunction to their vic
Tins to keep quiet or they would fill them
with lead.
When Gleason recovered from the
effects of the blow on his head he rushed
ups airs and got his revolver. He ran
after the three robbers, who as soon as
they saw him pursuing them with pistol
in his hand took to heir heels. Gleason
fired three shots at them, but none of
them seemed to take effect.
A policeman heard he shots, and see
ing the three fleeing figures he gave chase
and captured one of them. He took him
back to Gleason's store, but Gleason told
the officer to let the man go.
After the robber ha: gone Gleason said

The case was reported to police head
quarters yesterday morning, and early in
the afternoon William Wright of Florida
street was arrested and taken 10 the Cen
trail Police station.
He was afterward taken 30 the City
Prison and is held pending further de-
velopments. A search is being made for
the other two men. and it is expected they
will be arrested soon as it is believed
they are residents in the neigh borhood.

covered in a dark corner with her face
turned to the wall hidden In quantity OF
clothes that were hanging there. 1t was
evident that she considered she had been
shame fully insulted. for when some OF the
mem bers of the troupe gathered around
her and tried to comfort her she answered
in tones Of fierce indignation and even
sobbed a little.
After ii me she consented to accept a
cigarette from one of the actors and
smoked 1t in her dark corner. holding the
cotton handkerchief before her face and
peeping over it at the intruders. When
approached by lady of the interviewing
party apd assured that no more sketches
should be taken If she objected Chan Ho
buried her face against the wall, at the
imm inent risk of rubbing off her rouge
and setting The garments on fire with her
cigarette, and remained in That attitude
till left alone again. Then she gradually
emerged, like sulky child, and began
peeping over the handkerchief.
1t was evident that the one and only
woman actress in Chinatown was grea

lied round her. laughing at her airs and
graces, and Offering consolation and
creature comforts. One old woman, from
the culinary department downstairs, came
up with little china bowl, containing a
fnretaste OF the IeaSt In preparatl q, but
Chan Ho would have none Of it. She was
in tearing rage at the idea that any one
should presume TO put her picture in the
paper and did not hesitate to show her
feelings The strangest thing was that
she had shown absolutely no timidity
about facing her audience, indeed she had
acted with good deal more spirit than
the men.
