ORGANIZED BAND OF ROBBERS.
Their Den Unearthed, Three Arrested

the Davenport (Neb) bank roooers,
and succeeded in unearthi1S ar OF gan
lied gang of the boldest kind of RCD
bers which has been operating through
this part of the State for several
months.
Last Saturday morning the bank OF
Davenport was robbed of several num-
dred dollars. Chief Lepinski got onto
their trail and followed the robbers to
Hanover, KaS, where ne arrested three
of them yesterday. The robbers den
was what is called a "hOle in the wall
and was run by one of the gang who
disposed of stolen goods. In searching
the cellar the officer dug up about SooU
in gold. $500 in silver, plenty of gold
watches and jewelry, besides a large
roll of script and several dynamite
bombs. When searched the prisoners
divulged $1,000 in cash and several
weapons.
The three robbers were taken TO
Washington, Kas, to await trial.

MAKING SURE OF THE DATA.
The Pride of the Broadway Squad
NerifieS the Guide Book.

A small lady, carrying a hand-satchel
and a Guide Book to the Metropolis,
approached the tall policeman on the
corner, and, smiling affably, asked:
Can you tell me the hight of that
building over there, please?" relates
writer in Puck
1.-TWO hundred and seventy-three feet
and ten inches from the sidewalk to
the top of the tower"
Thank you ever so much. And is
it true that there are 236 deaths in
New York every twenty-four hours?''
Cant say for sure, lady; wouldn't
be surprised, though
Really Isn't it dreadful? And can
you tell me how many parks there are
in the city,"
The tall policeman moved uncomfort-
ably, and gave the exact number with
deep sigh. The lady positively beamed
on him as she asked:
is it really so, that thirty years ago
this spot was a cow pasture, where
the lowing of the kline stood knee deep
in the shaded stream. and the only
building in sight was church on that
corner over there?"
The policeman looked longingly at his
watch
That's what I've been told, but I
dare say its sort of exaggerated, you
know, lady
Oh. do you think so? I hope you're
mistaken: it's so sweet to think Of these
busy, noisy streets once being peaceful
green meadows: don't you think so?
And to think that a ripping brook once
lntersected that corner, flowing be-
tween dropping willows and alters"
Do you not think that is sop
Sure of it, lady
Really? oh. I'm so glad! Thas is
what the guide book said but 1 wanted
to be perfectly certain of it. Thank
you, ever so much"
And the small lady tripped jcyfuliv
away, while the large, tall policeman
leaned against the block and mopped
his forehead vigorously.
