Red Beach Woman
HeldUpaDd Robbed.

Red Beach, Me. Oct. 23.-The pres
epee here of Sheriff Woodman of
Washington county has brought to
light, details of bold highway rob-
berry, Tuesday afternoon, when Mrs.
Annie Elliott was assaulted by two
masked highwaymen. who knocked her
down, tore open her dress and ripped
from her neck bag containing $40,
after which they effectually made their
escape.
County and town authorities are
working ON the case, today. and il is
intimated that arrests may be ex
pected shortly. Owing to the fact
that the highwaynien evidently were
familiar with Mrs Ellott's habits of
carrying money in a bag around her
neck, it is believed the crime was COM
mitted by local residents.
Mrs. Elliott was walking along the
edge of a field on her own property
within plain view of her house. when
wo masked men sprang from the
pushes and assaulteG her vigorously.
Despite the fact that she was taken
~ surprise she put up a valiant re-
,istance and struggled with them des-
perately, at the same time screaming
for help. Her cries were unheard,
however, and the tWo men succeeded
in throwing her to the ground, when
they ripped open her dress and tore
the bag from the strings which Sc
cured it.
