PISTOLS STOLEN FROM
 WARREN BROS. STORE

The store of Warren Brothers on Second avenue between Twentieth and Twenty-f1rst streets, was broken in by burglars yesterday morning at 5 o'clock for the third time in a few months. The front window was broken open and IS fine revolvers were stolen.
 The burglary occurred just as the street lights went out and for a short time the street was in entire darkness. The window was cut open and the glass set to one side and the thief Is supposed to have crawled through and taken the revolvers.
 The policeman saw the negro run from in front of the store and hurried to see what had been done. He found the window broken but the thief had made his escape. Headquarters were notified at once but what property had been stolen was not found until the store was opened for the day. There were nine Smith & Weston revolvers taken, one Remington, one Colts and two Iver Johnson.
 The police say that the window thieves have method of their own. The first thing they do is to locate the policeman on the beat. They watch him for some time and when he is at the other end of the beat the win dow Is broken and whatever goods can be taken quickly are made away with. When a policeman has beat of two or three blocks they claim it is practically impossible to cover all the buildings.

Nashville, September 12.-(Special) The Volunteers took both horns off a double bill from the Barons this aft ernoon, the contests resulting to 0 and to 2.
 The double. offering included a post poned game and each was pretty contest. One miscue by Second Base man Marcan proved the undoing of the Barons in the first chapter, while a brisk batting rally broke the 2-to-R tie for the Volunteers in the closing inning of the closing contest.
 Both contests were interesting pitch ing bouts in which Covaleski and Case shared honors equally in the first, just as did Viebahn and F'leharty in the second.
 In other words, each side made the same number of hits, fortune favor ing the locals in each installment of play as outlined.
 The first, which registered Coval- eskis first loss for 12 games and which sent him back to the big league fol- lowing a long delayed defeat. was won in the fifth inning when all the SCOT ing was done
 After Case had struck out Bay was the fifth man to walk and he moved up on Mike Lynchs bounder that Mar can couldn't check. Wiseman hit to Emery. who muffed the drive, but threw the ball to Marcan. who let 1t get by and Bay scored. Patterson's hit scored Wiseman.
 The score in the second was tied up to the last inning, the locals getting couple of runs in the third on a couple of singles and a terrible three bagger by Viebahn, while the Barons put over theirs in like amount on four hits, including a three-bagger by Mar can.
 The Volunteers closed the going in the seventh with one out, when Lynch's two bagger scored Viebahn.
 Umpire Pfenninger was hurt early in the first game by pitched ball and thereafter players officiated.

MASKED MEN ROB
 AUTOMOBILISTS

Poughkeepsie, N. r., September 12.- Three belated automobilists. hurrying into Poughkeepsie at a 40-mile- hour pace in a big touring car. were halt ed on a lonely spot on the new state road, near Reinhart, this morning. by two swinging lanterns.
 As their machine stopped the lan- terms went out and two masked men hopped lightly to the high step of the car. There was one of them on each side of the automobile and each carried a glistening revolver.
 "Get out of here while we search you" said one of the men as he swung open the door of the car The auto mobilists stepped down while the bar rels of the two revolvers covered their every movement.
 Up with your hands. and no fool while one of the highwaymen stood On the seat Of the car the other went through a score or so of pockets, miss ing nothing in his deliberate search. He took out bandana handkerchief and carefully tied up his booty, $175 cash, three watches worth $4O0 and some negotiable paper, the value of which Is not stated.
 As the highwayman stepped back to allow his victims to return to the car one of the trio, J. w. Towsley of New York city, stopped quickly. picked up a huge rock and sprang upon the masked man. The second high wayman. afraid to fire at Towsley for fear of injuring his companion, rushed to the rescue, shooting twice into the air as he came He pulled Towsley away, hurling him sprawling toward the car, which the other automobilists were just entering. Then he grasped his companion and the two disappeared in the darkness at the side of the road.
 The automobilists made record time to Reinhart and from there telephoned to the auth critics in Poughkeepsie and neighboring towns Deputy sherins were immediately sent out after the highwaymen.
 Nearly a score of automobile hold ups have occurred in this neighborhood during the last few weeks.
