 The Douglas City Bank
 Capital $5O,OOO
 DOUGLAS,
A BOLD DOUGLAS HOLD-UP

The amount taken was over $495 fn silver and gold. The robber in his haste did not search Helms, who had over S2.000 in greenbacks stored away in his pocket book on the inside of his vest. a&fS
 In speaking of the robbery yesterday Mason said:
 "I was closing up the wheel game Sunday night about II o'clock when a short heavy set man with a white handkerchief over his nose entered the saloon from the back way and com manded all in the room to throw up their hands and to line up against the wall. Turning to me he said to hand over the cash l was counting.
 "I put the silver in the sack and showed it towards him, and he reached with his left hand and took the sack of silver coin, and still covering us backed towards the rear entrance.
 "I immediately gave the a arm and the officers got to the saloon in about five minutes after I shot my revolver, and made a hasty search for the rob Der. He went out through the back gate of the saloon yard and disappear ed in the darkness, and no trace of him was found"
 When questioned as to whether he would be able to identify the man if he saw him again, Mason said that he would. and he has very strong suspic- ions as to who the party is. He is vel known around mining camps in the southwest and is still supposed to be near Douglas.
 The bartender nor the cash drawer of the bar was touched The robber only seemed to want the money on the rou cite table, and seemed per fectly satisfied with the amount he got from the same.
 The police have several late arrivals under watch and feel sure that they will land the right party in a short time

At Douglas between 10 and II o'clock Sunday night, just as Ed Ma son was counting the money and put ting it into 8 canvass sack preparatory to closing up his game in the Abbey saloon, owned by Maloney & Dalton, a medium sized man with a whi e handkerchief tied over his nose enter ed the saloon through the back en- trance. and called to all in the saloon to line up against the wall.
 The men in the saloon thought at nrst it was a joke, but when the rob Der with his 45 calibre revolver began to advance, and raised the gun in the face of the men, they quickly obeyed his instructions.
 Mason started to reach for a gun, but the highwayman told him that i: he made a single move he was a dead man and to hand over the cash as quick as he could. Mason without any ceremony put the money in the sack, and was tod to throw his hands up.
 The robber then reached for the sack and slipping 1t into his oVercoat pocket backed out the way he came into the saloon.
 There were five men in the saloon at the time of the hold up besides Joe Dalton. enc of the owners, and Mason. who was EObbed
 George Helms, a barber from Naco, was standing near the table, where four men were playing cards when the robber entered. Helms had a pistol in his pocket, but made no effort 10 use it after the robber entered the sa- loon.
 The robbery was done so quickly and quietly that few people on the outside knew that it had happened. After the robbery Mason grabbed a gun and fired several shots which al tracted a number of people and the officers but all arrived too late to ar' prehend the robber.

COUNCIL MEETS
 AGAIN TONIGHT
WILL TAKE SOME ACTION ON
 SEWER FRANCHISE MATTER

Monthly Bills Win Come Before Meet
 ing-comnitee May Be Appointed
 to Investigate Water Proposition
 The city council meets again this evening at 7:30 o'clock and will have several important matters to pass upon. This being the regular monthly meeting. the bills that have accumulat- ed during the past four weeks will be considered.
 The most important matter that will come before the council is the letter from the Julian brothers of Tucson, who some time ago filed an applica' tion with the city for sewer fran- chise. At the last meeting it was de cided that the Julians should be asked to state more plainly their intentions.
 This letter, which was received by City Clerk Kinsey and was published in full, sets forth the fact that the Julians are sincere, and desire to build sewer system in the city, if they are given the right kind of encourage ment from the council. They deny that the franchise is to be used for speculative purposes.
 One of the aldermen stated yester- day afternoon that a committee VIII be appointed 10 confer further with the Julians regarding the franchise. They will take the matter up with them and report the result of their investi gation at the next meeting.
 Some action may may be taken on the fire protection bond matter. The question of what kind of water will be used has never been indefinitely settled, and this work may be turned over to the care of a com mittee.

DOUGLAS WANTS
 CAME THERE
BORDER FOOTBALL PLAYERS
 MAKE STRANGE DEMAND


 Go to ouglas-Want Benefit of
 Gate Receipts at Naco Grounds
 Manager Abrams of the Naco ath- ledc park yesterday received letter from Verne H. Lincoln, manager Of the Douglas football team in which he says his team cannot play Bisbee al Naco on March 18th. The boys want to play the game at Douglas"
 This makes the outlook for a game between the Bisbee and Douglas foot ball teams look anything but bright. The local team is opposed to going to Doug,as, where there is no athletic park, and no chance to reap the bene- fit of the gate receipts.
 Sunday Manager Abrams asked that the date for the game be changed from March 18th to March Sth. The Bisbee team consented to the change despite the fact that it cut off a whole week of practice This was done to accom- modate the Douglas boys.
 The letter received by Manager Abrams seems to be final, though it is hoped that the team from the border city will consent to game at Naco, where there is an excellent grounds, which are fenced. Both teams were to go into the game and divide their share of the receipts on basis to be agreed upon.
 The Douglas team has no grounds such as ttose at Naco," said Manager Sowle of the local team yesterday. and they have no right to ask that the game be played there. The reasoB that it is not to be played at Bisbee is because we have no grounds to offer. Naco is neutral territory, and it is the proper place to play the game" 1 The Douglas football eleven is prac' ticing daily, and the addition of sev' eral eastern players has greatly strengthened the team. They are working hard and hope to be able tc get away with Bisbee in this match.

LYNCHING OF TWO
IS EXPECTED 3, H 3
No Especial Effort Made at Lander
d, to Keep Keffer and Dollard
<.-~z From Mob.
s.. ~, ~.....
Men Carrying Arms and Ropes
- Likely to Attack the Jail at
Any Moment.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Aug. 15.-Advices from
Lander early this morning indicate that
James Keffer and James Dollard will
probably be lynched. -.
A large crowd gathered about the Ian
der jail at 1880 last night and for time
1t looked as tho it would be stormed. The
mob was armed with rifles and revolvers
and two or three men carried ropes After
a brief consultation among the leaders,
however, the crowd apparently dispersed.
Since that hour men have been seen
lurking in the shadow Of the the build
ing in the county jail and an attack is
expected at any moment, the dispensing
of the mob being a ruse, it is believed, to
throw the officers off their guard
Dollard killed Frank Byrant in a saloon
on Wednesday night, after having Drained
Ross Stringer with board In the street
Dollard, who is an ex-Rough Rider was
drunk and shooting up the town at the
time. re..- ,-.
James Keffer was convicted of murder
Ing William Marin, a stage tender on
the Lander-Rawlins line, two years ago,
and was sentenced to be hanged, but was
granted stay of execution pending an
appeal to the supreme court.
Apparently there is no extra effort be-
ing made to protect the prisoners. The
regular guard is at the JAIL but that is
all. Sentiment in Lander appears to be
all one way, and unless the prisoners are
spirited away. which is doubtful, it seems
certain that both will be hanged
