Thousand Dollars .s :A:
BY DARING :. .ROB3ERY.
The Express Agent at Mansfield,
Ohio, Knocked Senseless and Then
the Thieves Got Away With One
Bag of Money, but Overlooked
Another Bag That Contained For
ty Thousand Dollars.

entered the Office of the Adams Ex-
prss Company there, knocked Will
liam Depew, the agent, unconscious,

nearly fifty passengers stood about

A bag containing $4,000 in gold
was lying near the $4,000, but was
overlooked by the robbers.
kilograms were sent to the police
of the nearby towns and as Fl result,
John McCue and Joseph Stevens
were taken into custody at New Lon
don. They had sack taken from
the express Office containing the
$4,000.
Stevens, the police say, confessed
and implicated George McGinity, a
friend of Depew's, who was in the
office at the time and was covered
with revolver during the robbery.
According to Stephens story, the
money arrived Tuesday night from
Delphos, Ohio, and was consigned to
bank at Hamilton, Ohio. Stevens
said McGinity tipped off the arrival
of the money, and cooked up a
scheme with him and McCue to rob
the office.
McGinity was locked up. He de-
nies the charge.

ACTUAL STARVATION.
brunt Parman Drug Co. Give Fact
Regarding Dyspepsia.

Although Indigestion and Dyspepsia
are so prevalent, most people do not
thoroughly understand their case and
cure. There is no reason why people
shonld not eat anything they desire
II they will only chew it carefully and
thoroughly. Many actually starve
themselves into sickness through fear
OF eating every good looking, good
smelling and good tasting food. be-
cause it does not agree with them.
Dieting cannot cure Dyspepsia.
If we refuse every article of food that
disagrees with us. before long we have
nothing left. and find ourselves
chronic dyspeptics.
We can cure Dyspepsia. We are SO
confident OF. this fact that we guarantee
q cure, and promise to supply the me-
dicine free of all cost to everyone who

fed with the results which it pro-
duce.s We exact no promises, and
put no one under any obligation
whatever. Surely, nothing could be
fairer. We are located right here in

KINGS MEAL NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
Peasant Boy Rejected Fare That Sat
 isfied Ruler of Italy,

The king of Italy has very frugal habits. and on one occasion when out hunting his love of simplicity led to %n amusing incident The king was quite alone, and after walking about for some time without obtaining any sport, he was at last lucky enough to shoot a fine chaniois
 A peasant boy who had seen the animal fall into a chasm offered to fetch it's carcass for King Victor. al though he had no idea of the identity oS the sportsman. Very well" said Eis majesty, "I will wait here" But what will you give me, signOr?- asked the lad. What do you want?' said the king, smiling. "Oh, franc and half your luncheon" replied tTfe lad. The bargain was struck and the boy went of down the mountain side, and soon returned with the body of the chamois.
 The king gave him franc, and then proceeded to divide his lunch into two equal portions; but the peasant, when he saw what King Victor had to eat, turned away contemptuously. for the lunch consisted of a small loaf of black bread and a large raw onion. No, thanks, none of that for me-" ex- claimed the lad T thought you were a gentleman, but I see you are only a poor fellow like myself"

GUAYMAS HAS SHOWN GREAT
 IMPROVEMENT
Col. Johnston Says Conditions In Mexico Are Slowly and Surely on the Mend-Yaqui Situation Better.

Colonel R. NJ. Johnston passed through Bisbee yesterday on his way home from Guaynas, where he has been to look after extensive interests whica he has in that section.
 When asked concerning the financial sitnsto on there, and in Mexico gener- ally. the head of the Turkey Track ranch said that while there was nv sudden or decided improvement, it could be stated that conditions as a whole had greatly improved. and that there was every indication that they would continue to improve. Colonel Johnston is not man given to max ing statements of which he is not sure, and his view in regard to the general outlook may be- taken as reliable Johnston has had many years expo rience in Mexico. and is thoroughly familiar with conditions there.
 One of the phases of the situation in Mexico Is the improved condition with reference to the Yaqui Indians It is known that the government has of late made special effort to make the lives and property of Mexicans ana Americans safer, and that it has made very great progress toward doing so. Travel Is now much general, and places are visited which were before avoided.
 Colonel Johnston says that the re- ports to the effect that the Indians and the representatives of the Mexl- can government have recently held a series of conferences looking toward q settlement of the troubles are true, and that while nothing of the result has been given out, 1t is quite appar- ent that there has been decided i'm proyement in the situation.

Why He Did the Washing.

A man came out of one of the lit tie roof houses across from the wom ans window with a big basket of clothes. He was followed by two small boys, carrying more clothes and ciothespins. The man put the basket of clothes down and began to sort them out preparatory to hanging them on the line The boys helped, hand ing him the clothespins and some small pieces, one at a time. They were a long while hanging out the clothes because of their awkwardness. It was evidently work they were un- accustomed to, but at last it was fsn- ished and the boys went down into the little roof house, leaving the man on tine roof. He stood for moment looking at the clothes, then going over to a parapet. sat down between two tall chimneys. The woman could see him from her window lean against one of the chimneys and by and by throw his arm across his eyes.

.B|SBEE BOYS MEET DEFEAT
 1T FOOTBALL
Score of IT to 0 At Shelter
 City Yesterday Is Attributed To Superior Weight of the Douglas Team.

The football team of the Bisbee high school. accompanied by crowd O. local admirers and patrons of the game returned from Douglas yesterday af- ternoon defeated, but undiscouraged, after the regular Thanksgiving game. which resulted In a score of IT to Q, in favor of the Shelter City.
 The boys of the local team take their defeat in good part, but are dis posed to attribute the large score run up by Douglas to the superior weight of that team, which they claim would average from ten to fifteen pounds per man higher than their own.
 The Douglas boys were the agres- sors from the start, and in the first half scored two touch-downs, and kick ed one goal. In the last scrimmage of the first half Bradley, the Douglas fullbaek. received an injury to his knee. which sent him to the bench for the rest of the game, his place be- ing taken by a substitute.
 In the second half Bisbee held Doug lsa down to one touchdown, .and a goal, the game ending with a score of r to 0 in Douglas favor.
 The weather bureau provided ideal football weather for the event, there being just enough snap to the atmos- phere to promote the best physical effort
 Both sides were well drilled in their school yells, which the rooters of the opposing teams used in hurling defi- ance at the enemy.
 Over confidence may have played a part in the defeat of the Bisbee boys, as the last Thanksgiving game with Douglas resulted in victory for the local school
 No injuries other than the custom ary scratches and bruises are report ed on either side, with the exception of the Douglas fullback. previously mentioned.
