HAS A CRIME WAVE
REACHED ANDERSON?
HOUSE BURGLARIZED ON
FRIDAY NIGHT
A BOLD HOLD.UP
Home Of Mrs. Orr on Market ST.,
Was Entered and S. D. White
Was Robbed Of Valuables.
BOLD HOLD-UP

About one more night like Friday
night ana Anderson people would
conclude tina crime wave In ear
nest had struck Anderson.
Shortly after O'clock, as s. d.
White. who Is employed by G.. f. Tolly
and Son. was en- route to his home,
a few miles out OF the city. he was
held up and was robbed of SO. Mr.
White was riding horseback and
when he reached the old Keys place.
about two miles from town, two men
came out OF the thickets ON either
side OF the road and when he got par
allel with them they presented two
pistols and ordered him to throw up
his hands. This he did and they
searched lin, relieving him of SO and
then ordered him to hurry on home.
Mr.. White did go home but later re-
turned to the city and reported the
matter to the police. AS yet the po-
lice have been able to make no ar
rests but they have very meagre de-
Of the two highwaymen.
About all they know Is that both men
were white and one was tall while the
other was short.
The most daring robbery pulled Off
In some time In Anderson took place
either Thursday night or Friday
night, when the home OF Mrs. s. M.
Orr on Market street was entered and
the whole house tansacked. So far as
can be discovered the thieves took
nothing but two diamond rings but IL
'f5 possible that they secured many
other articles, since Mrs. Orr is ont
or pne city anu ner son. hairy A.
Orr, Is unable to determine Just what
articles are missing from the house.
The burglars entered the vacant
hoGee By using Jimmy on ,hs door.
They went through the library, pull
Ing drawers out OF desks and making
a complete search, on into the din
ing room where they ransacked every
thing In the place. throwing the sill
yer around the room and investigat-
,lS every part of the premises. They
went on upstairs and into the bed
rooms where they gave the trunks,
closets, etc, the same treatment as
that accorded the lower portion of the
place.
so far as Mr.. Orr could discover
yesterday two rings, belonging to
Miss Lydia Orr, constituted the arti-
cIes stolen.
When q servant went to the house
yesterday she found the door open
and at once saw that burglar had
been in the house. She hurpiedly re-
ported the matter to Mr.. Orr and he
In turn placed 1t In the hands OF the
local police.
The fact that the burglary was
committed at night was proven by the
fact that burned matches lay around
in aif parts OF the house.

Many believe that the deed really

made away with him before his crime
became generally known. =
Others say that such thing Is not
possible and that there was no crifnf.
