front of the Hotel Roy, on West Thir-

one o'clock this morning, and the men
all lined up before Charles Simmons

Each of them held a revolver and

back while he explored the cash draw
er of the open safe There was moth
ing else for the clerk to do, and the
intruder quickly scooped out $3.50 in
bills. Then the men filed out, the
last one covering the clerk until all
were outside with his revolver,
AS soon as he was free the clerk
grabbed his own gun from a drawer
and fired five shots to call the police
He was so quick about it that he got

man before the robbers could crank

PLANS ARE
Being FAST PERFECTED
Sewerage System Will Be
Greatly Improved

Preliminary preparations for the
paving of city streets as authorized
by the recent bond issue have progress
sed sufficiently far to give assurance
that everything will be in readiness
for the beginning of the work as soon
as the surveys have been completed.
City Engineer Ansley said yesterday
that the preliminary work had adyanc-
ed as rapidly as had been expected.
One of the most important features Of
the work has been the systematization
and arrangement of surface drain
age. This is a matter of vital impor-
tance to the health of the city,
that every effort is being made to see
that it is arranged in the most saisfac-
tory and hygienic manner, and strict
ly in accordance with modern princi-
pies of engineering.
The storm sewerage system of the
city in the business district has been
re-arranged of late, so that this SER
vice will be more effective than ever
before. The entire system of sewerage,
both storm and private will be greatly
enlarged and improved when the
work contemplated shall have been
completed.
