To Halt Motor Car

A mysterious person dressed in white
his features concealed with white
mask and armed with a rifle, is today
being sought by the Tenth precinct po-
lice, following an exciting experience
last night by Harry Goode, of Stone
leigh Court, while motoring on Six
teerith street extended.
Mr.. Goode, who was accompanied by
two ladies and a chauffeur, told the
police that as he neared the Piney
Branch road, about 3 o'clock this morn
ing, the man stepped into the street
and called to him to stop. Seeing the
rife, Goode told the chauffeur to speed
the car forward. and the would-oe rob-
Der was left behind.
The police have but meagre descrip-
ton of the man, as Mr.. Goode could not
tell whether he was white or colored on
account of the mask. According to Mr..
Goodies description he was dressed all
in white, even to white shoes and a
white cap. When last seen the man
was running into the woods near the
Piney Branch road. The mounted po-
lice have obtained no trace of him.
