SOLDIERS MUST BE SWIMMERS.

In the Dutch army a man must be able
to swim as well as to fight. Moreover, if
he is in the cavalry he must have a horse
which will take a river as easily as a
hunter takes a fence. Swimming ma
u are part of the regular drill
there. Collapsible canvas boats, manned
by a few oarsmen, lead the horses so that
they do not attempt to land on stone
quays and other difficult points. The men
swim across with their horses and on
them. They do it in swimming costume,
and in oil the accoutrements of war.
There are few nautical emergencies for
which the German army is not prepared.
some of the officers " even reached
such a degree of proficiency that not only
their horses and kits cross the river with
them, but their pet dogs sit upon their
shoulders and are borne over, almost
without Wetting.

sued monthly to the same number of
wheelbarrows plying for hire in the street
of the foreign settlements at Shanghai
where, being under the municipal regu-
lations, they are, perhaps, the best in
China. Sometimes as many as so barroWs
! may be seen in the streets, travelling one
chino the other, each carrying two bar
rels of English and Portland cement and
pushed by one man. Very frequently a
load is carried on one side of the barrow
only and it is extraordinary to see a
Chinaman skillfully balancing and pro-

remarkably few. when it is considered
that about 1000 of these vehicles are in
use in the streets, in addition to a large
traffic of other kinds.

A SALOON HELD-UP
Successful Robbery Early This
Morning.
WERE THREE OCCUPANTS
Two Masked Highwaymen Play a
Winning Game in Ryan's Saloon
on Anaconda Road.
WERE THREE OCCUPANTS

Joe Ryan's saloon at 215 Anaconda road
was held up and robbed by masked high
wagner at an early hour this morning
and the robbers succeeded in getting
away with STOPS in cash and two watches.
Bartender John Dick was seated near
the stove talking to two visitors, Cliff
Spence and John Harrington, and was
! reclining comfortably in a chair with his
feet resting on a table. Shortly after 4
o'clock the door opened and in walked
the traditional long and short men. Both
had their features concealed by handker-
chiefs, one of which was white and the
other black. Goa collars were turned up
and hats pulled down over the eyes to
further assist in the DISCUSSES. The tall
man wore a dark overcoat and dark cap
and the short man wore a brown cutaWay
Goa and a brown hat. AS they entered
the door they leveled revolvers at the oc-
cupants of the room and the big man
growled out:
Throw up your hands, you fellows"
Dick hesitated about complying with
the demand and the big man turned his
attention exclusively to him.
Throw up your hands or I'll shoot the
-- out of yOu," he said in a most ugly
manner. and Dick seeing thai he was not
to be tritied with, complied with the re-
quest. The big man still covering the trio
told his partner to go behind the bar and
get what non he could find. Dick was
closely watching proceedings and the big
man evidently thinking that the barkeep-
er was getting to curious, snarlingly or
dered him to turn his face toward the
wall.
After the little robber had tapped the
till of all it contained, amounting to SO. 25,
he turned his attention to the three men,
taking a filled Elgin watch valued at $35
from Dick and a $45 watch from Harring-
ton. AS the cross bars on the chains
caused some trouble. the robber snapped
the chains and left the fragments hang
ing in the vests of the two men. When
his work had been completed the big man
ordered Dick to open a small safe that
stood in the saloon but the bartender said
that he did not know the combination
and could not do it. The robbers took his
word and then left the saloon. AS the big
man backed out he warned Dick not to
attempt to follow him as he would shoot
blazes out of him."
AS Q as the door closed Dick jumped
to his feet and securing his pistol opened
the door. He heard the men running
through the Parrot yard and he fired
three shots in the air to attract the police.
AS his place is beyond the city limits his
alarm was not heard and the men made
soOu tneT escape. DICK says that he
nearly always carries a pistol on his per-
son, but ten minutes before the saloon
was entered by the thieves, he laid it
down back of the bar. The watch he lost
was a present to him seven years ago and
on account of it's associations he priced
it very highly. Immediately after the
robbery Spencer was sen to police head
quarters for the purpose of reporting it.
The description given of the men was
fairly good and the police believe that
they will be able to find them.
