AssaAans Chased But Have
 Not Been Captured.
TOOK $35OO IN MONEY
Attack Made Yesterday Morning at Helen-Bess--Descrlption of Negroes and Articles Contained In
 Pack of the Peddler.

While trudging along with pack Of wares on his back yesterday morning about s o'clock Essex Arbean, Syrian peddler was attacked by two negroes, knocked down with a heavy hickory club and relieved of his goods and $S5 in money at IRelen- -Bess, a community near Lakeview.
 A thorough search was made by deputy sheriffs for the two negroes but they have not yet been captured. When last heard from they were near Green Springs. All day they were chased by officers, and part of the distance dogs were pressed into service.
 Sheriff Burgin and his men are making every effort to capture the assailants of the peddler.
 Arbean was knocked unconscious, but his condition is not serious. After he was assaulted he walked to Birmingham. He seems to have been badly frightened.
 Description of the Negroes.
 Deputy Sheriff Joe Hill has sent out the following description of the negroes: s.=
 A negro man about feet inches high ginger cake color, weight about 40 pounds, wore small mustache, gray shirt. black slouch hat, short flat nose. The other was yellow negro.
 The deputy sheriff has also sent out the following description of the articles con tained in the Syrian's pack:
 Razors. thread. safety pins, scissors, pocketbooks, perfume. small mirrors, vaseline, hair brushes, laces, ladies and mems hose, ladies' undersklrts, towels, handkerchefs, pillow shams, suspenders. dresser scarfs, table cloths, one canvas telescope grip, about 12 by 24 inches. The attack was made near the ore mines of the Birmingham Ore company and but a short distance from where a number of men were at work The ped- dler says he was accosted by negro and asked if he had a certain article for sale He replied he did not. The negro walked near him for some distance, when an- other negro jumped from behind a clump of trees and asked him the same ques- tion. When he answered he did not the negro struck him with a heavy club.
 The Negroes Fled.
 The negroes fed and two hours later. in the woods some distance from the scene where the Syrian was knocked down, the pursuing officers came across q place where the negroes had evidently divided the spells.
 An examination of the club showed that 1t was half of a pick handle. and il looked as though it had been broken but short while.
 The peddler lives on First avenue, and frequently went to Relentless to sell his wares.

CURLEY IS PLACED IN
 COUNTY JAIL HERE

The scenes around the box office of a theatre when there is big rush for seats for an artist like Richard Mansfield are always interesting. It is an excellent place to study human nature. and several idlers ayailed themselves of the oppor- tunity yesterday morning.
 While the sale of seats was by no means the largest on record in Birming- ham-for even at a previous engagement of Mansfield there were more seats sold the first day-it was one of the best. In an hour and half nearly every seat in the house was sold, and in even less time every seat in the balcony was disposed of.
 Boys camped.
 Early Monday night boys and men be- gan to arrive in the lobby and take their stand, waiting for the box office to open the next morning. They brought chairs. camp stools boxes, and even a keg was to be seen. On these improvised seats they camped for the night.
 Some were on hand to get tickets to see that their best girl had a good seat. Others were there to hold the place and NN Places in the line were sold for 25 50 and 10 cents, and even s1 and s1 50 was paid for the best positions
 Not more than six seats were sold to each person, and there was little specula- tion. Many had engaged boys to stand in line for them. and they arrived in time to take the places and get the seats. In the line might be seen men in almost ev- cry station of life. Occasionally there was negro porter. There was no push ing except at rare intervals. where some boys would get together in which case the mightier ruled as usual and took the front of that particular group. Perhaps one would fall asleep and some one would quietly slip in front of him, taking a po- sition six seats better
 When the box office opened at o'clock, Treasurer Sprague told the crowd that he would commence at the third row and
