of the entertainment, st. Peters
hall, that had been donated by Father
Hoog for the entertainment, was filled
to it's utmost capacity on Monday
night and a like audience again
greeted the participants on Tuesday
night. All of the dances were
executed beautifully. The "skirt
Dance" by Adelaide Brandenberger,
and the Spanish dance" by Vera
Callahan, deserve special mention.
These charming little misses were
presented with beautiful bouquets
of American roses. Miss McHenry
favored the audience with q vocal
solo entitled "The Rose" which was
heartily applauded. Miss Edna
Morris rendition of "The Innocent
Drummer was exceptionally good.
| The entertainment is for the benefit
OF the poor and it is gratifying to
know that the fund will be quite an
aid to the needy.

ROBBERS ".
Cedar CIV FURNISHED Sensation
for Last Saturday orning.

On Friday morning six men ar
rived at Cedar City. they had the
appearance Of being buns. During
the day they solicited aid, Later
in the day they lounged around an
old ice house until noon. After
dinner they went to a saloon owned
by Fred Ellig. They drank consid-
cradle and soon became abusive;
one Of them was especially profane.
This continued until about 4 O'clock.
At about this hour Charles and S.
J. Gilbert stopped at the saloon and
while there were insulted by the
buns. Charlie Gilbert made some
reply, when one of the highwaymen
drew a pistol and commenced firing,
retreatiDg from the saloon at the
same time. Gilbert grabbed up a
double barrel shotgun and just as
the robber fired his last shot Gilbert
raised his gun and fred the contents
Of the barrel into tho robbers breast,
resulting in instant death. The fir.
ing attracted the attention OF
the officers, who were soon
in pursuit and within a short time
had captured t%hree--one escaped
and one dead. On examination Of
the dead robber he was found to have
two more pistols on his person and a
6ne lot Of burglars tools. The pris-
oners were all brought to jefferson
City, and late in the evening the
fourth robber was taken in. The
gang is supposed to be the same who
recently robbed the Missouri Pacific
train near Nevada. The prisoners
were all taken to Fulton Saturday
morning.

Need Not Be- Tried il Cole Covn

Need Not Be- Tried in Cole County.
George Arnold, the convict who
murdered his ccllmate, Murray.
some weeks ago, committed suicide
in his cell last Saturday. Arnold
had been sent to the penitenitentiary
from st. Louis, and without apparent
provocation deliberately stabbed
Murray, from the effects o. which
he died. Arnold had been placed
in solitary confinement, and brood
ing over his troubles, doubtless con
cIuded that he had but u chance
in a thousand to be saved, and ! Q
didn't think that chance worth suf-
fering for until his trial. He would
have been indicted ny the March
grand jury, and no doubt been con-
yicted of murder in the first degree.
BY this suicide he saved the county
several hundred dollars. An inquest
wal held by Squire r. p. Stone.
