ROBBERS HAVE A BUSY NIGHT
There Were Two of Them and Each Was
Armed with a Bevolvcr.
THREE KEN HILD UP WHILE GOING HOME

on Thulr Work.
Two highwaymen did a good business , with
little profit , however , near Twenty-seventh
nnd Parker streets Monday night. During the
very short Interval of tlmo In which they
were under observation they went through
threu vlctlmo and were apparently aifxloua
for more. Two ot the Individuals thus held
up were seemingly ready for Just ouch nn oc
currence , as they carried no money or valua
bles. The third was probably In the name
condition , otherwise ho would have made a
report of the affair and revealed his Identity ,
Borne thing he 1m j not yet done.
The first man , or rather lad , who had the
misfortune to run up against the highway
men , was .Mark Ellington He wai on hla
way to his homo at 1915 North Twenty-eighth
itrcet. The hour was nbout 10.30 o'clock.
As ho was walking along Parker street , be-
tw n Twenty-sixth and Twenty-seventh , two
men stepped up tu him. They emerged from
tint shadow of a blR tree that stands near the
Mdeivalk. They ordered Ellington to halt.
Ellington obeyed the command becatlFc It
was empliaalrcd with n couple of big revolvers
vers , which were pointed directly at his face.
Ho promptly threw hla hands up In the air
and ono ot the men went through hla cloth
ing. Inaumuch as Ellington had nothing on
his person , the robber did not get anything.
With an oath , Ellington was ordered to go
on and he went. i
When Dlllnglpn got to the top of the Par-
Itcr Direct hill , a couple of blocks away , he
looked back to see what had become of the
highway men , He wan startled to see an
other man holding up his hands , while the
name highwaymen wcro apparently going
through him. Ellington , however , was not
looking for any moro acquaintance with road
thieves and ho lost no time In puraulng his
way.
SECURE A SECOND VICTIM.
The second victim was Emll Stringer. Ho
also was on his way homo and his experi
ence was very like Ellington's. The two men
fctepped up to him out ot the shadow of the
trco and made him hold up his hands. They
went through his clothing , but Stringer also
was without anything of value. With nn
oath thai was even more emphatic than
that which was addrcitted to Ellington ,
Stringer was ordered to go on. Ho obeyed
with alacrity.
When Stringer got to the top of the Par
ker street hill , ho also stopped and looked
back to ec what had become of the high
waymen. Ho saw another man -niggling his
hands upward as far as he could reach and
two men apparently going through him.
Stringer Is also n man who attends to his
own business. Conee < iucntly , ho pursued his
way homeward.
The Identity ot tbo third victim Is at
present concealed In mystery. He has made
no report to the police. That Eccms to be
pretty conclusive proof that he was not
robbed of very much.
During their brief Interview with the
two men , Ellington and Stringer did not
spend much time In examining them. They
are able to say , however , that one was shoit
and slim nnd attired In n light suit of
clothes , while the other \vas stout nnd was
dressed In dark clothes. Both vvcie firmed
with revolvers. 'Ellington believes that they
live In the \lclnlty of the holdup , because
ho thinks they took him for his brother.
They spoke his brother's name and ord-TeJ
him to turn over his wealth.

GeorKo H. Itoblnson , the man who so mys
teriously disappeared ten days ago , m.iy be
wandering clmlc.vly ) and according to the
dictates of an unbalanced mind , In the woods ,
known as Clark's forest , about a mile north
of Ilellcviie. This Is the clew that the ftlends
ot Koblnson ore now working on ,
The clw was furnished by George F.
Longtfotd , an attorney of this city , who lives
In Belleviic. He got It econd-hand from a
woman who claims to have cccn a man. coatless -
less and hatlcss , walking In the woods
Monday afternoon. She believed that he wan
demented. She was unable to give a very
good description ot the man , but as much as
slip did glv-J corresponds wllh the description
ot Uobhi'On. If It should be tht missing
man tha halloas condition would bo partially
explained by the finding of his hat on the
river near Florence by some I'lattsmouth
boys. The clew was eagerly eelzcd by Rob
inson's friends. A hand ot about twenty
of them , members of hi ] lodge of the Knights
of 1'ylhlas and his companions In the Union
Pacific headquarters , left the city for
Belleviic yesterday morning. They were ac
companied by Detective Dcmpscy and a
coplo of other police officers.
The parties Intend to thoroughly ccour the
woods In order to discover the Identity of the
nun who vvaa seen wandcilng about therein
ay the woman It will he a labor of eomo
liotirn , as the woods extend over 1,000 acres
and the ground Is heavily covered with trees
and brush. The laud Is practically unoccu
pied and a portion of It lias been used as a
rifle range by the federal soldiers. It lies
directly on the river hank.
It Is now doubted by some that Uoblnson
went down the river at all. Detectives who
yesterday looked over the ground where he
took the boat at Florence fctate that they
traced his footsteps tiom his bicycle down
io the river , where the boat was , and similar
footsteps hack from the river bonk to the
road ,
Henry Plant of Florence , accompanied by
a Mr. Gardner , a filend of Uoblnson , went
to I'lattsmouth yesterday and positively

river by the three Plattsmouth hoys as the
ono taken by Itoblnson. The boat will bo
E-hlppcd back to this city by rail The derby
hat which -was found a short distance from
the * pot where the skiff stianded and which
waa left on a polo on the river bank had
disappeared yetsterday. Thu Plattsmouth
boys left It to mark the apot where they
found the boat. The. hat was but little
boiled , was nearly new , and was from the
store ot a local retail dealer. Robinson's
relatives are of the opinion that the hat be
longed lo the missing man , us he was known
to have purchased one a short time before

James Collins and James , better known as
*
Jim Collins , cousins , the two men who were
caught on the night of May 11 while
rifling a refrigerator car at Thirteenth
street and the railroad tracks of a quan
tity of meat and who were captured ot'er
a desperate light , arc apparently having a
hard time of it to break Into the penltan-
tlary.
A few days after the arrest of the two
in.cn they were given a preliminary hearing
In police court and were bound over to the
district court. When they were arraigned
In the criminal court It transpired that the
police court transcript failed to show that
the crime was committed In Douglas county.
Judgp Baker therefore dismissed the case ,
but held the men for further hearing.
The Collins boys were at once rcarroated
arid Monday afternoon a new information
was brought into the police court to bo filed.
tfudgc Gordon received It , but after It had
been sworn to the pohce Judge failed to
sign the attached atlldavlt. The fact wan
discovered yesterday when the prlsoncro
wcro to be arraigned. The result of thlc
tangle was the thawing up of a third com
plaint by the county attorney. This was
properly filed and the two defendants were
finally arraigned. They pleaded not guilty.
Their hearing was stt for ne\t Monday

City Engineer Rosewater has determined
on eomo Important changes In the paving
specifications which are expected to ma
terially r duce the cent ot repaying and at
the same tlmo Insure a better quality of
pavement.
The proposed specifications provide that
In repavlng districts where the concrete base
hat previously been constructed , the concrete
shall be covered with a coating uf broken
etone , ThU Is to be covered by an asphalt
binder , surmounted by the usual surface coat
of asphalt. It Is estimated that tills plan
will reduce the cost of paving to 11,60 to
11,76 per yard , and at tha tame time give
a better pavement than could be laid under
the present specifications. It Is tbo opinion
of the experts who have been consulted that
fewer cracks would appear than are found
In the present pavements. Mr. Rosovvater
also proposes to Introdutu an Improvement
In the new paving districts by placing a
layer ot sand on the clay soil before the
concrete la laid. This will give a mote
oven pasc to work on and will also operate
to prevent cracking.
Examine the labels and trademarks of pro
prietary at tided. Imitation * are ecuaivt ,
and In eonio catea the tlltference between
: iu-ni and the genuine Is go slight a to cj.

We've atiuck rock bottom now.
This Is positively the final cut.
We'll bs quick in quitting now.
Everyone of our salesmen has been buoy

Not a pair allowed to escape.
It'll ono sweeping quitting cut.
Amongst the knife work done vvcro
all the bibics * shoes that were 48e , all

on a table by themselves at 25c.
They would all go before breakfcat , but
wo can't open until 8 this morning.
There arc about 1,000 pairs of Infants tans

They will bo 40c.
We'll have four separate 4Sc tables.
On one will be the children's tan shoes
that vvcro originally cut from $1-25 to 7Go ;
they now fill n big 48c table.
The simo shoe In black with patent Una
are piled on another 48c table.
Bargain la not a strong enough word to
express it.
The third and fourth 48o tables will con

shoes and oxfouls , gathered from all over the
store , different kinds , different values ; Home
wcro $4 00. sonip $3 00 , and none of them

There are over GOO pairs on this table and
they are yours until they are gone at 48c.
The greatest value we have offered jet Is
on the table Just Inside the door. H won't
be there long , because there are on thin
table , women's tan oxfords , sizes 4 to 8 , only
a 100 pair , at 7Gc.
Again "bargain" doesn't tell halt of It.
The carpenters have made us two new
tables for today , on which we place nil
the misses' and children's oxblood and tan
button shoes , also all the green ones we had ,
They were $2 25 and $2.50 before the pale.
They are 84c now.

The lines are complete In the boys' nnd
youths' ox bloods and tonn. The price Isn't ;
It's Just half.
The youths' oxblood lace shoes that we

now In the boys' department.
The $2 00 and $2 25 ladles' tan oxfords are
put together toJay to make a complete

They are fine , and this Is the first time
they have been taken from the children's

Our finest men's oxblooda will go for
$1.98.
Boys' to match , $1.48.
Youths' of the same , Sic.
Anybody could have a shoo sale If they'd
use a knife like we do.
But It's only a quitting store that dares cut
In half , nnd then cut again.
If the door Is clrsed when you come , re

won't stay closed longer.
Everyone will have a chance to buy all

In view of the protracted controversy

on account of proposed changes In the teach
ing corps the result ot the election Monday-
night was something of a surprise. It ban
been a number ot years since an election
was accomplished with so few changes. The
old list of principals were re-elected with
the exception of the Eckcrman school prln-
clpalshlp , which was left open on account of
a pending resolution to close the school.
Of the entire force of over 300 teachers only
two were dropped. These were Mrs , Artie

Van Horn of the Cans school. Both wcro
rated us strong teachers , but they wore
dropped solely on account of being married

The committee eppolntcd to confer with a

The question of street sweeping Is occupj-
Ing a good deal ot the attenllou of the mem
bers of the Hoaul of Public Works. It Is
the unanimous opinion of the members that
the present sjstem Is not satisfactory In
all respects The sweepers collect the dirt
and refuse .In piles and then It Is usually
scattered by the wind and passing chicles
before the wagons got around to haul It
away. City Engineer Roscwatcr thinks
that If the blue barrel system Is to bo con
tinued It will be necessary to have an ar
rangement similar to that In use In New
York City. There the refuse collected by
the sweepers Is deposited In big sacks ,
which uie left to be picked up by the wagons
as rapidly as they arc filled. Thus the
dirt Is retained after It has once been swept
up , Instead of being again scattered over
the street.
However thla may be adjusted. It Is cer
tain that the present membership ot the
blue barrel brigade will have to be cut
nearly In half before the end of another
week. The entire amount left In the clean
ing fund Is less than $3,000 and at the pics-
cnt rate ot expenditure It will bo exhausted
before the summer Is half over. There Is
some talk of dropping the barrels altogether
for the present and hiring horse sweepers
to clean the streets nt stated Intervals.
