was robbed of over $1,000 in rather
novel manner on Wednesday night. He
had been out to see a friend some dis
tance from his home at late hour and
just as he was passing lonely spot on
his way homeward, two strange men sud-
denly sprang out from behind thorn
hedge, and while one held him, after
having thrown heavy coat around his
head, the other robber very cleverly re-
leved him of the money taking it out Of
his hip pocket. Then both men quickly
escaped in the darkness Jones says he

Get Their Fingers. Clipped.

The fnger-clipping fool is still abroad
in the land, and all the local cigar
dealers are on the lookout for him.
They try to keep him from indulging in
his painful and CORY amusement. but
rarely with success.
This particular kind Of idiot FIRE.
quents the biggest cigar store in town.
where customers are In the habit Of
clipping off the ends Of their cigars In
a machine made expressly for the pur-
pose. and in which a powerful spring
drives a blade across an opening In the
surface big enough to hold h end OF a
cigar. Pressure on the surface re.
leases the spring.
The opening is large enough to admit
the end Of a mans little finger, and
many men cannot keep their little fn-
gers out Of It.. They stick them in The.
opening. 'sjust to Sc II the blade will
jump over before they can pull 1t out"
The blade always moves more QUICK
~ than the finger and ships off the ex-
treme tip, making a Painful wound that
bleeds freely.
Cigar dealers say customers appar-
emily sane, do that every day. The
dealers can't account for it.-New Yors
