TWO ROBBERIES ON
 WACO ROAD SUNDAY
 NIGHT BANDIT GONE

Two robberies within fifteen min utes of each other was the record Sun day morning The crimes were. ap- parenuy. committed by the same man and within a few minutes of each other- The entire haul by the robber consisted of S48O and a watch and chain, which he litter from John S. Williams
 The first attack was made on Naco road near the old Custom House. very few minutes after one o'clock. A man by the name of John Larson was coming from lower Naco road to Bisbee and of a sudden saw a rock fall directly in front of him. Tho next thing he remembered was being hit between the eyes with another rock He sank to the ground practi- cally unconscious An automobile coming from Lowell threw its Hghta on the melee and the robber fled
 Larson was unable to give any de- scripuon whatever of the man. He was helped into the automobile and hurried to Bisbee where his head was given medical attention.
 shortly afterward John s. Williams. who lives in Dubacher canyon. was making his way home and when just past the Arizona bar was accepted by man who asked what time it was. Williams told him and started on. The man commanded him to throw mp his hands Williams looked around and was confronted by a long knife
 He allowed himself to be searched, the robber finding St50 in change on him and his watch, aH of which he purloined The robber then disap- peared into the darkness.
 The second robbery was reported to the city police and with Jay Wimoth. 1 they made a search of Naco road, Johnson Addition and Lowell. but no Itrace of the robber could be found. A complete description of the man was furnished by Williams and the officers hope to land the man.
