0ATHERs ARE ROBBED,
BUT no CLUE IS Il
WHO DID THE TRICK

No trace OF the guilty party or
parties who robbed the bathers At
the McGill swimming pool last Wed
nesday has been discovered ALTHOUGH
the sheriff's force has been on the
Job every day since the occurrence.
The robbery took place while :
party of Ely and McGin people were
enjoying a plunge In the swimmine
pool at the McGill club house sitter
birthday party given in honor Of
Mr.. and Mrs. J. E. Stack OF McGill.
The men of the party hung their
clothing In tie locker room and after
locking the outside doors proceeded
to enjoy themselves in the pool. On
coming out of the pool, Mr.. Fred
Baglin was the first to dress and dis
covered that his Elgin watch was
missing. Further investigation by
other members OF the party disclosed
the fart that total of $3.50 was
missing from the respective trouser
pockets.
Sheriff Enslow was at once notified
and Immediately drove over to Nc
Gill. no trace OF the robbers could
be found as the ground on the out
side OF the building was hard gravel
and many people had passed over Il
going TO and from the club.
The windows appeared to be un-
molested, although several panes Of
glass were missing. which might have
permitted person to reach In and
open the sash. Several Of the party
expressed wonder that all Of the
watches were not taken. but is Is be-
lieved that the late arrival of two
members OF the parity who called to
the bathers inside, frightened the
robber away beforehe had completed
his work.
