On reaching the big alley" Jaggers
decided to turn south. He rounded
the corner and although Patrolman
West held his own he was not gain
ing. They passed around the second
turn at Second avenue and Main
street, pursued and pursuer, turning
into the East lane, away from Main
street
Fate, that elusive power who han
dies the destinies OF men as though
they were beetles and bugs, was fast
weighing the faults and virtues of
this man and was preparing a quick
downfall. 1t came at Second avenue
and State street. AT this unfortunate
spot he was pegged by the dauntless
Billy" West and Leonard Carver, a
man of no less mettle than the boy in
blue.
Jaggers' escapade wound up when
he was escorted again to the Temple
of the Gods" at State and Barraque
streets. He was at first placed in a
cell, but he did not remain there long
enough to make the acquaintance of
other gentlemen who love their home
town SO well that they are willing to
while away precious moments in this
building. He soon put up forfeit of
five beans and was given freedom. 1t
is not expected that he will test the
paragraphs of Coleman's Digest.

the grave was brief, but the apf ro-
pirate remarks of Rev. Christian, who
| referred to the tolling of the twelve

HlGHWAfMAN WHO POKED BIG
REVOLVER UNDER HIS NOSE.
WAS VERY CONSIDERABLE
REFUSED Watch But Took Money and
Then Told His Victim to
.'Beat 1t. and He Did.

&. d. Mclean, a carpenter formerly
connected with the John Hood Con-
struction Company, residing at No. 7O6
West Third avenue, reported to DO
lice headquarters last night that he
had been held up and robbed of s35 in
greenbacks, between Walnut and Olive
streets on West Third avenue, at $50
O'Clock as he was on his way home.
He stated that he believed the high
Wayman was a white man and de-
serlbed him as being about five feet,
eight inches tall, and weighing about
1o0 pounds. He says that the man
wore a dark suit and a soft black hat.
He also wore a mask, which covered
his e>Sre face
MI. Mclean says that as soon as he
was allowed to go by the highwayman
he came up town looking for police
man. He says that he met Patrolman
Henry at Second avenue and Main
street Patrolman Henry told him. he
says, that he would have to report the
affair to headquarters as he could
not leave his beat without orders
from the sergeant
Mr.. Mclean then went to headquar-
tiers, reported the robbery and Patrol
man Mize accompanied him back to
the scene of the robbery. Other Off
GERS were despatched to the place
where Mr.. Mclean said he was rob-
bed, but no clue could be obtained.
According to Mr.. Mclean it was one
of the boldest robberies that has been
pulled off here in years. He says
that he was on his way home going
to his residence through Walnut
street from Second avenue to Third
avenue and intended to then proceed
west to his apartments. AS he was
going through Walnut street he says
he noticed man walking out Third
avenue and the stranger crossed Wal
nut, going along the same side of
Third avenue which he took on reach
ing the corner He says he was
walking briskly and paid little atten-
ton to the stranger who was like
wise walking rather fast in front of
him. At this llace on Third avenue
giant oak tree sheds darkness over
the sidewalk and last night the Cotton
Belt siding, near the sidewalk, held
several cars, winch blocked practical
ly all light from nearby electric
lights. Mr.. Mclean says that the
stranger on reaching the darkest por-
lion of the sidewalk, stepped aside on
the vacant lot at this corner He
thought little of the matter and start
ed to pass On by when the man in
the dark called out: Throw up your
hands. He says he promptly COM
piled with the order and again the
desperate called out Throw them
higher" He did as he was told. Then
the familiar stranger began to go
through his pockets. II do not want

town Streets and Recover Their
Lost Prize in Quick Order.

Clarence Jaggers, young white
man, who said he lived near Clio,
gave the police officers merry chase
yesterday evening near the dinner
hour by breaking away from the Off
GERS at the police station and making
determined dash for liberty, only to
be nailed before he had gone three
blocks. According to the officers
Jaggers was sleeping on the floor of
the Hotel Jefferson billiard hall when
the management of that place called
the officers to have him removed to a
bunk in police station which they be-
lieved would be more comfortable for
the tired and weary visitor.
Patrolman West was sent to get the
man and he was accompanied by the
police station joy-riding wagon. When
offices offered to assist the young
man to get out of the pool room and
lend him their aid in mounting to a
seat of honor in the patrol he fought
viciously. The husky officers were
not to be outdone, however, and soon
he was seated On a cushion and east
ward bound for the police station.
With the disposition OF a lamb and
apparently enjoying life to it's fullest
extent Jaggers took his ride. When

ever, his manner changed to that of
man standing upon the threshold
OF life peering into the misty future
in an effort to see what good things
and what bad things Dame Fortune
held in store for him. Evidently his
visions were of bad things such as
poorly clad bunk for sleeping pur-
poses and very coarse victuals to sat
isfy his hunger, for as quick as a
flash he made one desperate stab for
liberty preferring pool halls and
sidewalks as wide as the streets to
the dreary iron cages with locks as
strong as the Rock of Gibraltar. By
