dash for the door. They had left a
buggy standing near the building, and,
springing into it, they drove rapidly
north across the prairie AS soon as
the men, n of whom was tall, the
other short. were ont of the office.
Hope dashed into the shop to give the
alarm to the Is workmen employed
there, while President O'Neill and
Rourke, grabbing r~evolvers, started in
pursuit. Mr.. Rourke pointed his re.
volver at them and pulled the trigger,
but the weapon failed to explode.

at the robbers as he ran along the road
behind the buggy. but none of them
took effect. The short man. standing
up in the buggy, also fired both his re.
volvers. and, when the chambers were
empty, he reloaded. A large crowd
was after them in a few minutes and
steadily increased until a crowd of

was a good one and outran all of them.
In a short time the patrol wagon from
the Brighton Park police station was
upon the scene and although the thieves
had a long start it kept after them on a
full run. At Thirty.sixth street and
California venue the buggy tipped
over and threw the robbers into the
street and it was thought they would
surely be captured, The thieves, how.
ever. quickly picked themselves up and
dashing across a prairie came out on
