WILLIAM FARNUM

At the Grand Sunday and Monday nights in 5-reel western drama, en- titled "The Plunderer" A melodrama of the very best sort. Vigorous, clean minded with rich thread of humor running through the entire five reels. A fine speciman of the William Fox productions. The story is taken from Roy Nortons novel of life in a west ern mining camp. William Farnum comes into his own as Bill Mathews, the part fitting his personality and fine historione powers to perfection
 With his bare fists he clears the path for this double love story which leaves a happy glow in the minds of the spectators, and is pronounced as per feet a photoplay as has yet been achieved. Five hundred wonderful scenes of romance, love, hate, trials and successes. (adv.)

DOUGLAS RESIDENT WAS
 HELD UP BY BANDITS

DOUGLAS, June 26.-A hold-up in broad daylight was one of the fea- lures of Saturday when, at about s o'clock in the evening, three men wearing masks on their faces stopped R. Cramer on the road between the town and the cemetery and relieved him of $19.75. all that was left of his weeks wages after buying few groceries.
 Cramer was on his way to his home on the beach, and had reached a point where the trail turns of, leading to the beach, when the highwaymen suddenly stepped from the brush ordered him to throw up his hands. His coat was stripped from his back in the filching pro- cess. When relieved of what money he had, Cramer was told to beat it'' which he stood not upon ceremony in doing. He returned here and re- ported to the police but diligent search in the neighborhood of the at tack failed to disclose anybody. The beach was closely watched by Deputy Marshal Bach and Marshal Shafer all Saturday night but nothing came of their vigilance.
 Cramer says only one of the three men spoke and that his voice was that of foreigner but he was un- able to say as to the nationality. Cramer is employed on the city streets and was paid of only an hour before being held up.
 It is believed by the officers that the highwaymen were laying for Joe Wehren, foreman of the street work, to whom $500 had been paid about the middle of the week.
 Cramer says two of the three men were well dressed but that the third wore clothes of a laborer-(Juneau Empire.)
