YOUNG FARMER HELD
UP LAST EVENING.
LEO WEBER COUGHS UP COIN
AND WATCH AT THE POINT
OF BIG REVOLVER.
BOLD ROBBER MAKES ESCAPE
DEPOSIT CERTIFICATES PASSED
UP AND NET LOSS SMALL
THEFT A STRANGER.

wednesday evening, Leo Weber
living on the Elliott farm on the Nc.
Cormick Lake road, about two and
one-half miles from Sank Centre, was
held up by a masked highwayman
and relieved of his. watch and about
$500 in cash.
MIR. Weber Is young man about
rs years of age, and lives alone on the
farm. About T:30 p. M, he went to
the barn to do his milking; returning
with the pals Of milk in his hand he
hticed that the window curtain on the
window facing the barn was down,
but thought some of the neighbors
had dropped in,
Just as he stepped. outside the barn,
with lantern in his hand, he was
suddenly confronted by masked man
who thrust a revolver into his face
and commanded him to throw up his
bonds. Leo lost no time in reaching
for the stars, setting down his milk
pals and lantern first. In setting
down his lantern he had the presence
of mind to throw away his pocket
book but the action did not escape the
keen eye of the holdup man.
The robber went through Webber's
pockets but found nothing except a
watch which he promptly confscated.
He then picked up the pocketbook,
Mr.. Weber taking advantage of the
movement to make a break across the
field for the home of his brother-in-
law who lived about mile away.
The robber picked up the pocket
book, distracted the currency-about
six dollars-and then cody went into
the house and ransacked the same but
did not find any portable property of
any value that he could appropriate.
Mr.. Webber, as soon as he reached
the residence of George C. Ehr, his
brother-in-law, telephoned to City
Marshall Costello stating that he was
coming to town for him. When Web
Der and Ehr arrived in town an auto
was secured from Smith Bros. and
Mr.. Costello, Mr.. Weber, Mr.. Ehr,
and Tom Smith FASTENED to the scene
of the holdup. Of course Mr.. High
wayman had taken his departure and
was not even courteous enough to
leave his route card showing in which
direction he had gone.
The certificates Of deposit and a
check which had been In the pocket
book were found near the scene of the
holdup.
Mr.. Weber is certain that he
recognized the voice of the man as
that of q party who had applied to
him for job some time ago and
whom he gave employment for about
! half . day in helping him fix his
we'll.
He described him g short, rather
,toclxy built young man, with dark
,air and of an athletic build.
Marshall Costello and the other par

The little navy movement is in full cry
In Congress at the very moment of the

Rousseau. after pointing out that

Great Britain. adds that the decadence
Of the feet is not due to inherent weak

ideal-a strong navy.
He predicts that the navy's glory will
prove merely transient in default of a
well defined program providing for the
progressive laying down of new ships.
Aside from these criticisms. Rousseau

WOMAN'S MISSION.

Woman's function in society is
determined by the constitution
of her nature. AS the sponta-
neous organ of feeling, on which
the unity of human nature en-
tirely depends, she constitutes
the purest and most natural ele-
ment of the moderating power,
which, while avowing its own
subordination to the material
forces of society, purposes to
direct them to higher uses. First
as mother, afterward as wife, 1t
is her office to conduct the moral
education of humanity. Woman's
mission is a striking illustration
of the truth that happiness con-
sists in doing the work for which
we are naturally fitted. Their
mission is always the same. 1t
is summed up in one word-love.
1t is the only work in which
there can never be too many
workers. 1t grows by co-opera-
ton. 1t has nothing to fear
from competition. Women are
charged with the education of
sympathy. the source of real hui
man unity, and their highest hap
piness is reached when they have
the full consciousness of their
vocation and are free to follow
it.-Auguste Comte.
