 and Helpless.
 BRADFORD, Pa, March 22.-At Pal mcr's Mills, lonely spot on Marvin's creek, an aged couple were tortured and robbed by masked men, tho robbers secur- ing over S6Ou.
 The couple-Mr. and Mrs. Merritt Childs. who are over 70 years of age-were about to retire when a knock came at the door. Tho old lady answered the sum- mons and was met by blow on tho head which folled her to the floor. The hus- band, who camo to her assistance was similarly treated, and three masked men entered the house. The husband and wife were then bound and gagged. while the robbers ransackod the premises, finding $500.
 This did not satisfy them, and Mrs. Childs was asked to tell where the bal ance of the money was hidden.
 She refused to divulge the information, whercupon the flends barred her feet and pressed them against the redhOt stove. She stood the torture until her feet were very badly burned and then made known the place where another S1O0 was secreted.
 Inls experiment. enCOuraReu tho TOD bers. and the old couple were put through the torture again for the purpose of ex- torting moro money. All that remained of the savings of the husband and wife was 30 cents. This was then secured by tho men, and MT. and Mrs. Childs were again bound and gagged and left to their fate They were discovered in the morn- ing by neighbors in pitiable plight
 Mrs. Childs will probably die from the effects of the shock and torture. but the old gentleman will recover. Three sus- pects are being hunted by officers. If cap turcd they will have to be well guarded, as the feeling against them is very bitter in the ncighborhood.
