Hiphw aymen at Work.

Two highwaymen attempted
n hold up the Tonopah stage on
the night of May 23rd, says the
Reno Journal, at a point about
two and a half miles out OF Ton
opah and although they fired
several times at the coach they
failed to hit anyone and secured
no body. The stage left Ton
opah about $50 in the evening
and was about two miles and a
half or three miles oat of camp
when the passengers riding on
the top of the coach noticed two
men lying by the side OF the
road. The passengers notified
Driver Schofield and he, fearing
a hold up, whipped his horses
into a gallop. The horses had
barely started to run however
before the men at the side of the
road opened fire on the coach
with rifles and fred at least fit
teen shots. None of the shots,
however, took effect, and the
stage was soon out of sight of
the would be robbers.
George Nixon, who was pass
enger on the coach at the time of
the attempted robbery in a state
ment last evening said that the
highwaymen were evidently nov
ices at the business as they start
ed to shoot before they made any
attempt to stop the stage and
that they were very Door marks
men. It has not been learned
wether there was any booty on
the stage at the time of the at
tempted robbery or not, but as
the men took CRATE chances they
evidentlev thought that con-
siderable treasure was being
carried.
As soon as the stage got into
Sodaville word was sedt to
Tonopah of the attempted
robbery and it is thought that
the robbers will be caught.
There were sixteen passengers
on the stage at the time of the
excitement among them being
G. Snyder of the west Ore Pur.

and Con Crook, a we'll known
Texas ranger.
