carried q revolver, Ernest Cook,
chauffeur, was robbed of his
money early this morning, forced
to crank his car and allow the
bandits to drive off with 1t. The
robbery occurred at Pacific ave.

The chauffeur had taken two
Interurban carmen to their homes
in the south end of the city and

and Pacific. At 10th street q
tall man jumped into the street
and hailed him. Cook stopped,
and as he did SO a smaller man,
masked and brandishing gun,
leaped on the running board and
commanded Cook to hold up his
hands.
After the chauffeur's pockets
had been searched and 81 in cash
removed, the bandits ordered
him to crank up the car. Neither
highwayman, according to Cook,
knew anything about running a
machine, and after they started
off, leaving Cook standing in the
street. they swerved dangerously
from side to side. Cook reported
the hold-up to the police and
gave a detailed description of the
two men. He said that he had
seen the taller man in Tacoma

The Part Silver lnkstand Played In
a National Crisis.

The pages of history record many i'm
stances in which trivial Incidents have
shaped the destinies of nations. Ac-
cording to a story in the New York
Tribune, a small silver inkstand and
the quick wit of a prime minister once
played an important part in the history
of the Netherlands
William Ill. king of the Netherlands,
was a man of violent and ungoyernable
temper. Although in general a clever
statesman, he was inclined, for some
reason or other, to involve Holland in
the trouble that was brewing between
France ana Germany in 1870 He was
deaf to the appeals of his ministers,
who foreSaW the ruin to the country
that war would bring.

solved to make one last attempt to
thange his soyerign's resolution On
entering the royal presence Thorbecke

everything upon 1t. In the confusion

Sire exclaimed Thorbecke quietly,
IF your majesty hurls that beautiful
inkstand at my head The Haguers will
have much reason for their assertion
For minute the angry king gazed in
silence at his minister Then he grad
ually lowered his arm and replaced the
inkstand on the table. He walked to
one of the windows and stood looking
out for a few minutes Returning to
the table, he resumed his seat and
said, as if nothing had happened;
"And now tell me what you have got
to say"

left, he carried with him the monarch's
