CAbaHT The ROBBERS
Two Men Undertook to Rob

Arrested by Officers.

The Amarillo Daily Panhandle
of last Monday gives an account
of an attempted depot robbery
that was not successful:
1T. B. White and Wiley Pol

the men implicated.
The officers got a tip at ANA
I rillo Sunday afternoon that
something of the kind was about
to be pulled off and caught the
east bound passenger train. ar
irving at Gage shortly before
midnight. Pollard concealed
himself in the ticket office un-
noticed. while White and another
party lay down in the tall grass
about twenty feet from the sta
ton. After the train was gone
the ticket agent closed up the
Office and left the depot as usual.
The offers lay concealed for
about two or three hours before
the would-be robbers arrived.
One of them stood guard while
another made his way through
doors by prying them open. The
officers remained quiet till the
man had pried the cash door
open and was picking up the
money when Pollard stepped out
and the man seeing that he was
covered by a gun Immediately
threw up his bands.
The man standing guard at
the door started to retreat. but
was followed and arrested at a
restaurant. The men gave their
names as Harry Kerr and Ebert
Adams. They were taken to the
county seat where their bonds
were fixed at 50, 600 each.

Clovis in 9th Round Last
Thursday Night.

Clovis, N. NJ, Aug. %. -Cass
Tarver, the big white hope
giant of Arson, Texas. knocked
out Frank Beverly, of Dallas,
here tonight in the eighth round,
clearly demonstrating his super
eriority and his qualifications to
star in fast company in the fu-
ture.
The battle was Tarver's from
the sound of the gong. although
Beverly fought viciously and
stood punishment gamely.
The fight was witnessed by
hundreds of ring fans who came
to Clovis from distant and near
by points, Many have been
here for the past week, but the
number was greatly augmented
yesterday and today.
The ringslde was crowded and
the fans evidenced their APP
proval in the usual lusty-lunged
fashion throughout the contest.
Tarver looks like big business
from this time on.

VICTIM OF CLEVER Thieves
?arisian JeweIer Loses Large Sum
Through the Working Of Most
Ingenious Scheme.

A remarkable story Of international
thievery was related in Paris police
court the other day. when a man
named Buckihg. who had been ex-
tradited from London. was placed on
trial. Bucking. 1t appears. began by
writing to a famous Paris jeweler .un-
der the name OF Mrs. Marchmont."
mentioning another wealthy lady GUS
toner. and asking for quantity Of ex-
pensive jewelry to be sent to London
on approval. The request was i'm
mediately complied with. and 1850
worth was chosen and paid for with a
check. Three months later Mrs.
Marchmont" ordered $4,000 worth, and
also paid by means of a bill on q Lon
don bank.
Shortly after there came an order
for pearl necklaces to the value Of over
$25, 900 to be sent in order that the
customer might choose one Of $4,000.
and following this the jeweler received
another request in the name Of an al
legged friend of MRS. Marchmont" for
necklaces, rings. and brilliants. also to
the value Of over $4,000, all Of which
were confidingly sent to London. This
time, however. no payment followed.
and, the jeweler placing the matter in
the hands Of the police, the pseudo
MRS Marchmont" was arrested in the
person of a German named Bucking.

Tam Q,Shanter Shape.

Many women have already taken to
the Tam O. Shanter, which has been
lowering on the brink of popularity
since the beginning of the season, and
in its winter form it is likely to be
much in vogue. The stage often, If
not always, leads the way, and one of
the prettiest black velvet hats of this
shape is worn in play recently pro-
duced. This is quite unrelieved black.
A pretty variant Of the Tam O. Shan.
ter style is in blue felt with a black
taffeta crown and a black aigrette at
the side.
. The fashion of having color and
material combinations Is going to be
very general this season. Silk and
felt, silk and velvet, silk and plush
will be artistically combined, and the
black underbrim with white crown
will be feature in modish millinery
for the autumn season. i

Sometimes we put a rug in daddy's
