revolvers and forced the clerks to line
upagainst the wall.
AS the train neared the outskirts of
the city one of the bandits pulled the
signal cord, stopping the train. The

| appeared. The robbers was reported
| when the next substation was reached
and police were sent to the scene in
| automobiles.

the Church Attendance Law by either
going to church or into his home. The
law makes it n violation for person
TO be seen on the street or in his yard
or porch on Sunday, unless on the way
to or from the church. In defending
the law, the municipal officials of Tangier
contend that without some compulsory
method half of the church attendance
would eongregate around the store
porches or at other places on the street,
and the religious life of the island would
be endangered.
When the youth refused to obey the
commands of the officer, the police

purpose of snresting him, and it was
