Held Up by Two Robbers, Who

About Her Person.

lated the story Of the assault and robbery

out last night to empty the dishpan, end
as neared the coal shed, two men ap-
peared, One Of them said Here comes
the banker, and then they seized me and
held me up against the shed, while they
searched for the money. struggled,
but was soon overcome, and l really can't
remember what occurred. l was found
on the porch unconscious. My shoes ana
stockings were taken off, and were found
in the yard. My dress was badly torn
and had received pretty rough treat
ment. My pocketbook, containing $3.50,
was gone. Mr.. Cameron found me, as
he was the only one at home, my hus-
band being at the grocery. This morning
we made seacrb and found so cents In
the yard. It had evidently dropped out
of the poUketbook. A newsboy found 80
cents more and gave it to me. Several
suspicious characters have been seen about
che house, and few nights ago some
body tried Mr.. Reeds door. 1 believe
they knew carried the money and that
they are not strangers. They offered me
no indignities further than to get the
money"
The police have been notified and are
trying to find Mrs. Peance's assailants
She says one had a light overcoat and
a slouch hat. 1t is thought that the
robbers supposed that Mrs. Peance carried
all of Cameron's money and we're after
1t, for a fellow had been at the house a
few days before making inquiries as to
1I>yne eron's money and bis habits.

A SEPARATION.
Husband and Wife at Osnaburg Ap.
pear to Have Agreed to
Disagree.

The little village of Osnaburg is Salking
a good deal since Friday, of an affair
which they are unable to figure out as
yet. Some years ago, possibly four, Miss
Minnie Meiser was married TO Homer
Neidig. Two children have been born,
the second just lately. On Friday, Mrs.
Neidig left her home with her children
and went to the home of her parents, and
the husband has gone to boarding with
the family where they were keeping
house. Mrs. Neidig charges that her
husband does not support her, and while
the people think there must be some otner
cause for the temporary separation, the
lady will not give any other cause. Mr..
Niedig is a member of one of the military
companies in Canton.

Dyspepsia

The explanation is simple. 1t is found In
that impure blood which is contin-
ually feeding the nerves upon refuse
instead OF the elements OF strength and
vigor. In such condition opiate and
nerve compounds simply deaden and
