 HOLD-UP MAN
Victim of Robbers on Lowell Road Saturday Night will
 Knew One of Them

With white handkerchiefs tied over their faces, two men halted M H. Clarke. of the firm of Moore & Cos, as he was going to Lowell shortly af- ter II o'clock Saturday night. The men did not ask for money nor search Mir. Clark. The shorter one, who dis played a revolver, held the horse while they asked Clarke as to whether he had seen anyone riding a sorrel horse.
 Fifteen minutes later H. A. Harris. a miner, was held up as he was going to his home in Lowell. He was walk ing on the rail track when two men whose descriptions tally with those given by ,Clarke-stepped from the darkness. flashed a revolver and com handed Harris to throw up his hands. He was searched and a pocket knife, all he had on his person, was taken. Under threat of being shot, he resum. ed his journey with order to make no oUtcry.
 When MT. Clarke reached Lowell he notified the officers there of what had happened. A few minutes later liar. ris appeared on the scene and told them of being held up. Officers at Bisbee were immediately notified and went to the place where the hold-up occurred. Although they watched until morning nothing more of the men was seen.
 MT. Clarke states that when the men were talking to him the mask of the shorter ore fell, and that he got good look at him. He says he will know him if he sees him again. He said he could not remember ever hay. ing seen either of the men before. Officers are watching two men. but no arrests have been made. These men are supposed to be new corners tc the city .. ...r.

IN THE SHADE OF
 THE OLD APPLE TREE"
Joint Statehood Parody as Sung by Martin Bowers
 in Hans HanSOb

In spite of the indictment weather a large crowd saw the second presenta- ticn of Hans Hanson" at the Opera House Sunday night. The show was pleasing in every detail. It is full of thrilling. comic and sensational sit tings. Jas. T. McAlpin plays the part |of Hans Hanson. Tt is around Hans and Dan Norris" a tramp character which is played by Martin Bowers, that the fun eenters. The plot of the play is simple and pleasing. and it's real interests are in the features and incidents.
 It is seldom an orchestra gets in the ''lime-iight," but when the orchestra Sunday night gave rendition of ''The Break of Morn," it reached the re- sponsive chord of the audience, and the house wass filled with prolonged applause. Tue band which the com pany carries is a strong feature.
 Martin Bowers, who travels with the company as Dan Morris. has con- posed a parody on Tn the Shade of the Old Apple Tree" which humorous iy referees to the joint statehood situa- tion. The chorus of the parody fol- lows:
 '1n the shade of the old apple tree. There's a bill in congree you see; They're trying to annex, Ariz. with
 N. Mex
 But with that the people don't agree; "Mr. Beveridge is working like stag, "But he'll find he's run up against a
 snag;
 For Mark Smith he will see That no joint state there will be; Tn the shade of Arizona's old tree"

Prince GUrtChIkOm the governor Of

tain. escorted by mounted and foot police
arrived AT the first village and took the
PEASANTS unawares. He ordered the police
90 carry of the peasants belongings. as
they refused to pay the taxes
On reaching the next village the police
were met by peasants who had assembled
from other villages and who refused TO
pay their taxes or TO allow their belong
iugs 10 be taken away The captain re-
WaiuCd over night in the village and IN
the morning tried to persuade the peas
ants to pay but was met by sJill greater
numbers from neighboring villages, who
declared they would not pay. The cap
tain, in q rage, ordered the police to
shoot these swine.
They fred and wounded three Of the
peasants. The latter then attacked and
Gislrmed the police fifteen Of whom dis
carded their uniforms and refused TO
serve any longer The captain and the
other members of thc police force fed.
after being beaten The peasants then re-
stored what had been taken from the first
village and oven forced the local authOrt-
ties TO pay for what had been damaged.
