quantity of cigars and some liquor.
The place where the robbery was
committed is at the extreme southeast
end of the town, and, except the visit
of a policeman every hour to the neigh
borhood. there were no pedestrians,
making it a very easy matter for a
burglary to be made.
There have not been any robberies in
Harrison In a long time. The last of
any account were committed a few
years ago, when a long series took
place, which the police were almost
powerless TO cope with. Nc one sgas

two burglaries a night were committed.
The police are busy today trying to
get some information regarding this
mornings robbery. The saloon was

evening concerned up-to-date plans for
speedy removal of patients should the
dreaded alarm of fire sound through the

the danger of stopping the momentum

CURED in the chute, as projected, led to
Chief Matthew's objection to the danger
from this source. The Idea. however,
