zens in the vicinity of Mahomet,

ward Swiggert Of this city con-

is suspected Of committing many
petty thieveries reported by sore
Keepers and others near Mahomet.
Sheriff Gale, with a posse of
deputies, went to the dugout and
ordered Davis to surrender. The
young hermit stuck rifle through
corner Of his dugout and threat
ened to shoot the first man who
tried to take him alive. Deciding
that discretion was the better part
of valor, the sheriff beat strateg-

Their hermit has been noticed by
women of the neighborhood for
several months, although he was
not brought to official notice until
recently. Citizens threaten to take

JEW BOBPUT' IN
 DURANCE VILE
 BUT RELEASED

Robert Cochran, familarly known as Jew Bob," was arrested by Chief of Police Kitzmiller for connection with the bank robbery, according to the Anchorage Times. Bob remained ''in durance vile" just so long as it took Doc Madden and Mrs. Gelles to walk to the federal jail, where they both exclaimed in unison, "That is not the man." In fact Bob failed to resemble the bandit in any re- spect except in sex. Bob is a much larger man than the description given and then again Bob's old interior ac- quaintances, like Jerry Murphy, Art Shonebeck, Fred Martin and Doc Madden, the robbed stand pat and say that Robert is not a robber, but the contrary-well known for his ultra generosity.
 Even so Bob feels quite elated over the event and humorously told the judge and officers that he was grate- full for the notoriety and especially thanked them for selecting him for a regular He-Man bank robbery in stead of common, ordinary pilfering, such as Loussac's drug store, Model Exchange, Sourdough Henry's and numerous other ridiculous cases such as novice second-story men could get away with in Anchorage.
 Just to prove that money is no object to him Bob drove Up to the Times office in Anchorage's only closed car and ordered his Irish chauffeaur to 'go buy a box of ci- gars." The editor got em and they were good ones, Fl Sidelos.
 Returning to the case of mistaken identity" it was not even necessary for Bob to prove an alibi; he was so far removed from guilt. In all fair ness to MT. Cockburn it gives the Times pleasure to publish the facts that he has long been an Alaskan citizen of considerable prominence. During the year 1914-15-16, Bob sue cessfully operated on Willow creek in the Iditarod placer district. Also he was associated with the N. c. Company and later was in the mer- cantile business at the head of Idita- rod river MT. Cockburn has been in Anchorage four months and even now is contemplating entering into
