on business The master comes and
is startled by having a revolver placed
against his head with the request to
give up the keys OF his safe. II he
protests or struggles TO free himself he
is promptly shot; II he comes into their
presence with a revolver I'm his hand,
he is shot at before he gets up to them,

the advantage Of the bandit over the
ordinary citizen.
HOW DEEDS ARE DONE.
The BLACK Hundred" lately have
turned their attention to the people who
send money to the banks. A couple
of men will enter the courtyard of a
house in which some large office or
shop is situated, chat with the house
guardian or the servants, treat them
to some vodka, and learn when the
money Is taken and by whom. The
person TO whom the task Is intrusted is
then closely watched, and on going into
the street he is followed. IL ne happens

plcion that he is being Swallowed may
cross his mind, but he has no other
choice but TO go on. Within a short
distance OF the bank some ten or twelve
people fall upon him. One pins his
hands behind his back, while the 9TH
ers, drawing but their revolvers, cry
'Sllence" and rifle his pockets till they
find the money. II he happens to shout
for help he will probably get killed, for
nobody will go to the rescue. on the
contrary. the passcrsby who see his
plight hastily cross TO the other side OF
the street and make of from the scene
OF the outrage as fast as their legs
can carry them There will be

Not only are these wretches employed
