Harry Orr, 20 year old son Of a

berry Of the Frisco passenger station
yesterday morning was turned over
to the county authorities on war
rant charging robbery. He denies
having any knowledge of the crime
but was arrested on the description
Of the bandit as given the police by
the ticket agent on duty when the
'stick-up' was pulled off.
1t was shortly after O'clock yes
terday morning when a small white
man Of slim build walked into the
negro waiting room at the Frisco
depot, behind a rusty siXshooter and
dirty white handkerchief which
covered his face. Two negro pas
sengers made hasty exit when the
robher entered but a negro woman
who had just purchased a ticket at
the window didn't have time to get
away.
The robber, dressed in a suit of
blue overalls, approached the win
dow, showed his gun through the
bars and shouted to the day ticket
agent, B M Harpold who has Just
gone on duty.
GIVE me those bills" demanded
the bandit. Harpold being unable
to escape the barrel of the revolver
obeyed the command of the robber
by handing him a bunch of five dol
,ar bills.
Give me the cash drawer, too"
requested the robber, and again the
ticket agent obeyed. But when the
highwayman sought to gain posses
sion of nearly one thousand dollars
in currency laying on the counter,
Harpold risked the dangers of being
shot and disappeared behind cabi-
net in the ticket office. The thief
became frightened and fled from the
station south on Boston avenue with
his booty of $51.00.
