Thinks Robbers Went too Far

New Rockford, N. D., Aug. 26.-H.
B. Hanson Of this city thinks two rob-
bers who accosted him on highway
between Douglas and Max went step
too far when they removed his cloth
ing and cut it to shreds, seeking more
money, after they already had taken
$40 cash from him.
The robbers were under the impress
sion, they told Hanson, that he was
carrying about $1,000, and so deter
mined to get the loot that they cut
Hanson's clothing to bits. In the fast
ness of the night Hanson returned to
town and notified the police. Two sus-
poets have been arrested.
