Of Them Shot.

Women and They Gave Battle
to the Thieves.

Sharon, Pa, Dec. 5.-Two brave young
ladies, the Misses Emma and Genevieve
Rich, surprised robbers at work in tine post
office at Sandy Lake early yesterda y mern-
ing, and drove them Off, but not until one Of
the burglars had been shot.
For some time the postoffices IN this
part of the State have been the objects
of what is evidently an organized band Cf
cracksnen. Several big hauls have been
made, and men arrested and sent to jail i,
but without breaking up the gang.
The intrepid misses occupy a room over
the Sandy Lake postoffice. They are pretty,
of retiring disposition, and popular n the
place. Though they have never been mo
Tested. they always kept a dainty revolver
in the dresser, Just to make us feel d bit
safer, you know they said today.
While they were sleeping peacefully,
burglars pried their way into the postoffice
and started to work on the safe. With a
small steel drill they bored "a hole through
the safes door and filled 1t with dynamite.
The explosion was not loud, but was
sufficient to wake the two girls.
-Nuy, wnaI's tIaI! whispered Gene
we've. as she pulled the coveriets closer
around her head and snugged up to Emma.
Ssh, GEM DO you hear anything?'
"Oh, En- do you suppose it's-it's-oh,
what can it be-"
"'Gen.' / believe It's burglars. I'm go
ing to get up"
"'sposen they'd-oh, En- don't you
dare move DO you think they'll come up
stairs?"
where's that pistol. I'm going down.
Come on" and two pair OF bare feet struck
the cold carpet at once. Emma got the re;
voiver. 1t seemed SO big and so fierce
looking Quietly they stole out into the
hallway.
Two brave hearts were humping. but
the girls were determined to prevent the
robbery of the postoffice. Downstairs Were
two or three desperate cracksmen, Two
daintily white robed girls were pitting them
selves against awful odds.
mouse could not have crswled down
those stairs easier, but one Of the robbers
happened to flash his bull s-eye lantern
that way. The light partly blinded them
but Emma lifted her revolver and shot di-
rectly at the dark form behind the light
But those girls didn't tremble. They
couldn't. Their shot was answered by a
bullet from the robbers. which flew pas,
the girls heads. Emma fired again and
one OF the burglars gave a scream of pain.
They burst open the door and ran.
