THREE YEARS AT THE PEN
Fred Phillips VIII Serve Time for
Robbins Bill Patton.

Fred Phillips was sentenced on
Monday for a term of three years in
tie penitentiary for robbery and
was taken to Salem Wednesday even
ing. On Thursday evening Phillips
enticed W. 7. S. Patton, who was
considerably under the influence of
liquor, to take a walk with him. 1t
is said that - Phillips had previously
stated his intention of robbing Pat
ton and when he returned from the
walk, his sudden acquisition of
wealth was sufficient to put the
officers on his trail. Marshal
Stevens with others went to the house
where Phillips lived but was assured
by the inmates that the man was not
there and had not been there that
evening The marshal waited in the
shadow while his companions return
ed to town and was soon rewarded by
a sight of his man moving about the
house. On being arraigned in the
circuit court, Phillips plead guilty.
Phillips reputation here is that of a
gambler of the cheaper order.

The Cosgrove Concert Co. was at
the opera house on Saturday evening
and gave an entertainment which was
attended by large audience. The
performance was pleasing, but rather
more ordinary in it's nature than the
audience expected and was not
generally up to the high degree of
excellence which had been antici-
pated. The ladies OF the Woman's s
club, under whose auspices the en-
tertainment was given, say that the
best of the musicians left the COM
pany about week before its ap-
pesrance here and that the orchestra
which performed here was rather
different from the one which had been
engaged. In some special numbers,
however, the entertainment was ex-
cellent.
