Needles people, with a few excep- tions, are enjoying the recent holding up of poker game by two men who apparently needed the money. As the game was in progress and nearly one thousand dollars was on the table, two men with masks over their faces, appeared at the door, gun in hand, and faced the players and proprietor of the dive to the wall. While one covered the surprised gamesters with his gun the other raked in the dough and the two faded away in the dark ness of the night. As the game was unlawfully conducted the proprietor and players could not squeal, where fore comes the smiles and laughter.
