NIGHT CLERK IS
To GIVE
OVER S1,596 At
POINT Of GUNS
Masks WON by Bold
Pair Who Made of
With Receipts After
Holdup Early Today.

The police are searching
today for a tall blonde man
and a short man of dark
complexion who entered the
Henning hotel at 3 o'clock
this morning and held up
cliff Habernlcht, the night clerk,
forcing him TO open the safe and to
turn over the amount OF 81. 5e6.2o I o
them. So far no clue to tho men
has been found and It 10 thought
highly probable that they have left
for parts unknown.
The holiness of the holdup made
on the hotel was accumulated by the
fact that neither OF the men wore
masks. Mr.. Habernicht was en-.
gagged at some work which was in
the line Of his duty at the time
when he saw one man enter from
the s door and one from tho north
simultaneously. Not surprised ut
the late entrance OF tho individuals
since there was nothing about their
appearance to attract special atten-
ton. the clerk was not aware of
the nature Of their call until they
came close to him, drew guns on
him and commanded him to fork
over
we mean business" said one Of
them. as he told the clerk to put up
his hands.
The large amount OF money In the
safe at the time was the total OF
the money that had been lately
taken In from the different depart
tents OF the hotel. Three cigar
stands, the dining room tho cafe.
and tho rooms all contributed toward
the sum total. Evidently the hold.
ups were aware OF this when they
entered pom their undertaking.
There was nothing for Mr.. Haber-
nioht to do but to comply with the
command made by the highwaymen.
As o o as they had the money In
their possession they peremptorIly
beat it." The speed OF their exit
was probably increased by the fact
that a driver by the name of Bray
working for the Casper Taxicab
company entered ut this time.
As soon as the men were out Of
sight. the night clerk informed the
police department Of what had taken
plnce.
officer Jack Nen had Just come
up from making a call to West First
street. He turned in his report
from the phone at Second and Cen.
ter streets that everything was
ok, when Sergeant Warren at
the desk informed him OF the rob
berry. Neff secuted around for thu
-reet OF tho morning in an ~effort-to
locate the invaders. but nothing
