playing in this city, was held up by a
lone highwayman, and relieved of

preached the church corner on his way
to the company's car, to retire for the
night, he was hailed by some man in
the dark, coming from the direction
of the Empire stables, Thinking it
another member Of the troupe, who
was also going to the car, Mr. King
stopped and waited for him. A mo-
ment later he was looking into the
muzzle of a blackencd Colts revolver
held by the man for whom he had
waited, and, complying with the de-
man TO hold up his hands. With un.
steady hands the robber kept Mr..

cash. Then placing the muzzle of the
gun against Mr. Kings head, the rob.
ber started to escort him toward the
Empire stables. The ROBBERS hands
were still trembling. and Mr.. King
began to get nervous for fear Of being
shot.

in his rear pockets and pull out
from each to show Mr..
