Unique and Daring Robbery Mt Coo
penick, Near berlin.
BERLIN, Oct. ia unique and dar-
ing robbery was committed at Coe-
penlck. n small town near Berlin, by
a robber In the uniform OF captain
Of the guards, who met detachment
OF twelve men on street In Berlin
as they were returning from target
practice.
He produced forged cabinet order
authorizing him TO take command. The
men recognized his authority, and he
then ordered them 10 march 10 Coe-
penIck. Upon arrival there they pro
ceeded 20 the town hall. arrested the
burgomaster and the treasurer and
took possession OF the cash, $1,000.
The robber detached several OF his men
to conduct the prisoners to headquar-
ters In Berlin and ordered the remain
der TO hold possession OF the town hall
for half an hour. He then rode of
alone In the direction of Berlin with
the money.
The burgomaster and the treasurer
were greatly mystified at the meaning
Of their arrest. Upon their arrival In
custody at headquarters in Berlin they
learned that the ostensIble captain was
fraud and were Immediately dis
charged. The bogus captain has not
been heard from, and the police and
military authorities are without any
clew whatever as to his identity.

being so rapidly depleted, that the
UnIled States eventually will have 10
turn TO agriculture instead OF manu-.
featuring and commerce, In order 10

He believes that when the farmer takes

through the following circum-

two years ago. A friend, Mrs.
Brown, of Orion, Mich, came to
visit us. She had not been able to
dress herself or comb her own hair
for months. A friend of ours came
in and seeing her suffering offered
her some DR.. Miles Anti-Pain
Pills. She laughed at the idea Of
relief from such a source after
doctoring for SO long, but took one
one of the tablets with the remark
that it would at least do her no
harm. She took another that
evening, and the next morning she
was so elated that she went to the
druggists and got package and
took them home with her. Re-
Gently she was here again, and told

pills, and that one box cured her,

Horses always point one ear forward
when they sleep. Exactly why it is
done no human being can tell, but the
probability is that the practice is a
relic OF the time when they were wild
and obliged to be on their guard even
when asleep. Cattle, on the othe.
hand, are apparently Indifferent as to
the position OF their ears while Sleep
ing, but no odds what position they
are in both are always pointed alike.
