 Was Hospitable.

The watch was the property of Joseph Fisher, one of the roomers at the house. Good descrip- tions of the men have been furnished the police and they are now searching for them. Mrs. Krinisaka was great ly unnerved by the act and was almost hysterical from her rough treatment.
 Mrs. Krinisaka first saw the men yesterday morning about o'clock. She was engaged in her housework when the front door bell rang. The two man were at the door~and after inquiring if MT. Krinisaka lived there, went into the parlor. They spoke of knowing Mr. Krinisaka and proressed that he was an old friend of theirs. As MT. Krinisaka was not expected to return from work until last evening, his wife was in doubt at to what she should do as she did not care to off, fend any of his friends.
 The pair waited at the house for dinner and as they then spoke as though they intended remaining at the house, Mrs. Krinisaka said that she would be. Anable to accommodate them as all the rooms were taken and there was no room for them. She went to another room to continue her house. work when one of the men grabbed her and held his hand over her mouth while the other bound her. A gag was placed between her teeth and though Mrs. Krinisaka did her best to free her. self, she was unable to loosen, the bonds. She was>carried to a bedroom and tied to the bed.
 When neighbors failed to notice Mrs. Krin:saka about the house as was, her custom, they investigated about 4 o'clock and when she was discovered was practically exhausted from her ef- forts to free herself It was some time before she had sufficiently recov- cred to be able to give an account of the robbery.
 Sergeant Isaac Williams was detail- ed to the house from the second pre- cinct police station. No one could be found who had seen the men leave the house. Mrs. Krinisaka stated that both wore straw hats. one was about 40 years old, five feet seven inches tall. weighed about ITO pounds, wore a dark suit and had a dark mustache The other was described as being five or six years younger, about the same height, weighing about 160 pounds and wearing a grey suit.
