Toughs at Caldwell.

A dispatch to Sundays States
man from Caldwell gives the fol-
lowing account OF a desperate en-
counter between a clerk and two
burglars last Saturday night:
Leo Bach, clerk in T. G. Egles-
toms store, was shot by a burglar
early this morning and narrowly
missed being killed. The ball hit
him right over the heart, but it
struck button and this fact saved
him from death.
Bach sleeps in the store on deck
that is elevated some distance above
the floor. A stairway leads up to
this deck about the middle of the
store. Bach was awakened this
morning about / o'clock by the
ringing of the bell on the cash
drawer. Jumping out of bed and
slipping on his trousers, he seized
an axe handle and started down
the steps. At the foot of the stairs
he met short, stocky man who
said to him: "Stand aside or there
will be trouble" Bach replied with
blow of the axe handle that laid
the fellow out. The intruder held
in his hand the money-about So
from the cash drawer and two
empty revolvers. These he drop
ped as he fell. He started to rise
and was knocked down again.
AT this moment a second man
appeared, long fellow. He, start
ing TO run, stumbled over the pros
trate body of his pal and at the
same moment received a blow from
the axe handle in the hands of the
courageous clerk and was laid out
The smaller man had by this time
had drawn a revolver and fired two
shots at Bach. The first missed
but the second struck him as stated
Bach knew nothing more, falling
unconscious to the floor. The rob,
bers, thinking, it is supposed, they
llau killed MN, decamped without
taking anything-all the money
being found scattered about on the
floor.
Nothing was known of the affair
until s o'clock, when Louis Schno
Bile, another clerk, appeared at tn,
store. He found Bach lying un.
conscious where he had fallen wher
shot The injured man was car
ried into the office of DR.. Ed Maxey
who soon revived him. He is now
going about apparently none the
worse for his experience.
Several arrests were made to-day
but the right parties have not beer
found, and there is little or no clu,
to other identity.
