A few minutes minutes after mid
night yesterday morning two masked
robbers entered the Horse Shoe 81.

levelled rcyolyers held up the place
and The eleven men present
While one 81 the robbers attended
to the men ID the saloon the other
waved the bafkeepcr from behind the
bar ard over among the little crowd
that stood IN The back room with
hands III The air. This robber then
stepped behind the bar and swept the
contents Of the cash register into his
pockets, securing about SOS. No AZ
tempt was made to rob the men.
The whole episode occupied but a
few moments. The men plainly meant
business and no one stirred With
an admonition to Keep still for FIVE
minutes" the two men stepped swift
" outside and In a moment were
gone. Thus far there has been no
trace Of them. They worked with
precision and skill.
Police Officer Linyille. who usually
knows just what is going on in that
end Of the city, had only few mo-
ments before gone to get his supper
at nearby restaurant, as il was his
supper hour Perhaps the robbers knew
this. Had they also stood up" the
men in the saloon they would have
gotten quite i bit more, but they evil
IDENTIFY judged this too risky a job or
else one that would have taken too
long. While the police were very ac-
tive yesterday there is nothing to in
dicate with any accuracy the identity
Of the men and they may be far away
by this time.
The Horse Shoe saloon is owned BY
Harry & Rosendale, One Of the men
Is said 10 have been tall, the other Of
medium height.

Station Moved


The Seaside Signal says: @,The sta-
tion-house building at Cleveland has
been moved to Neeanicum, and here
after the trains win not stop at cleve-
land, il the present plans Of the rail
road company are adhered TO- There
is likely, however, to be serious OBJ
lection from some Of the property
owners at Cleveland who paid for the
building when it was erected, the nm
derstanding being that in the event Of
the station building being paid for By
the property owners, all trains should
stop at that point. The right Of the
present owners Of the railroad to ab-
rogate an agreement entered into BY
the former will probably be settled in
the courts.
