Crimes.

A secret service man in the employ
of the North Western Company has
been here for some time investigating
some robberies that took place here
some time in April. After careful
search and close investigation he at
last ordered warrants for the arrest of
young Robinson, Clarence Alec and
Ben Tramp. They were all, on pre-
llminary examination, bound over to
the grand jury, and young Tramp i'm
mediately got bail, but the rest are
still in Jail.
Last Friday a travelling insurance
man was, as he claims. drugged and
robbed of about $40, and the crime was
fixed upon Charley Jones and man
by the name of Thomas Alton, who
came here with the show. The last
named gentleman had part of the
money pinned in his coat when arrest
ed and at the preliminary examination
turned states evidence and both were
bound over to the grand jury, and bail
fixed at $500. This crime is surely of
too grave nature to let pass. 1t is
time alesson was taught some of the
young men of our town and they
should get all they merit.
Nor is the above all Last Thursday
night as Chris Henrickson was going
home he was held up by robbers. But
as they were looking for another man
theyfdid not modest him. 1t is time
such proceedings were stopped.

Under water.

Strange acquaintance are to be
made under water. II. Phelps Whit
marsh, who for time adopted the
calling of pearl fisher in Australian
waters, tells this story of meeting a
submarine monster:
"1t was muddy day, and every
thing in consequence looked blurred
and exaggerated. In the yellow distance
I saw an immense dark object moving
slowly toward me. AS it came nearer
1 made out central body with several
great arms, or feelers, waving rhyth-
mically. My heart was in my mouth.
81 felt sure it was an octopus. Then,
when was about to stir up the mud
at my feet to avoid being seen, dis
covered that the enemy was nothing
more than fellow diver The feelers
l had imagined were his arms, legs and
lines.
"a shadowy giant about IL feet
high, with huge hands and head like
a small barrel, was approaching He
walked slowly, his heavy boots raising
the mud behind him like cloud Of
dust, and his great central eye cleaned
darkly. Although l knew him to be a
man, it was with difficulty that re-
Trained from taking to my heels. At
sight of me he, too, was startled, but
he quickly recovered, and we shook
hands. Then we nodded, grinned,
showed each other the state Of our
bags and parted"
