As the stage bound for Washington Camp, the mining camp in Santa Cruz county, was approaching it's destins- ton yesterday it was held up and robbed by s lone bighwsynsn in the most approved up-,o- date fashion The passengers were lined up on she outside Of the coach and forced ct tbe point Of @ gun to di.gorge their money sod valuab.es. He was va. . gentle. manly rooundrel; d-plorinR the pas sengers Jack of mooey. It teems that there are two stages on sbai route and shat one Of them carries expsess sod mail matter exclusively. and the other psssepg rs. The rob- Der evidently intended to hold up the former. but made a mistake in the time of it's arriv.l. He secured . very email amount. just how much can not be stated .. this time ss our informa. tion vas very mesRre.
 The sheriff of Santa Cruz county immedistly organ red 8 posse and started h pursuit. The passengers could sid the sheriff but very little. for e soon ss the robber foished hi- work he ordered the drivsf to go ahead and for no, one Of them to look back oI the pain of in- staot destd. So all tbe infoI nation they could give was . description of the robbes.
 Early tbis mornin; 6 telegram was received st the eherifi's offioe here from the sherif of Santa Cruz to sr- rest . man by the rs ne of Whippls on the charge of highway robbery and the impression is prevalent here that he is the mso wanted fos robbins the Washington stsge.

played before an audience of nearly
one hundred passengers. All on board
seemed to enjoy the game.
Mr.. Graham, purser of the Campania,
was the first to suggest to the officials
of the line that the game be introduced
on shipboard, After some hesitation
the company decided to try the expert.
ment and supplied the purser with two
ping-pong outfits. In order to make 1t
more interesting the company offered
