STAGE ROBBED IN OREGON
HOId-Up tuesday Night Where
Several Have Occurred

ROSEb llG, Or, May THE mail
stage from Coos bay to Roseburg was
held up and robbed by two masked
men last night between Camas valley
and Olalla.
The three passengers on board were
compelled to get out of the stage and
line up.
While one of the robbers stood guard
with rifle the other received the
money and valuables from the pass
engers.
H. H. Scoyel of San Francisco, who
had considerable money taken from
him protested against having his en-
tire capital taken and his plea was so
effective that the robbers returned
ten dollars to him.
The mail was not touched.
The country where the robbery oc-
Cured is heavily timbered and there
is small probability of apprehending
the robbers.

How Arrow Heads We're Made

We didn't know until today how
the Indians made the flint arrow heads
that are often found all over the coun-
try. They had no tool to work with,
and the question how they made them
was not answered. ABE" Mathney,
who was for many years heap big
chief of the Washoe tribe, says the
souaws broke flint rock into small
pieces by putting it into the fire. They
then select a suitable piece for an
arrow head. held it on the fire until
it got hot, then put a drop of water
on it, which clipped off a small par
ticle of flint. and by this slow and
tedious process the squaws shaped the
arrow heads, says the Eldorado Re-
publican.
