Tlie whole f" city' was startled this morn
ing by' the report that Sheriff; Rice had
been robbed of a large amount of money.
The reports were - so various and con
tradictory that, to get at the truth of the
matter, we at once called upon our worthy
Sheriff, and obtained all tlie ; facts in the
case directly from him. He gave tra sub
stantially the following information : On
Thursday evening he left the city on some
business, and did not return to his office
until Saturday rooming.;? A box. In which
he deposited hi money sand papers from
time to time, had been placed" fcy. him hi
tLe vault iu the County Clerk's office. On
Saturday morning, repairing to the said
vault he failed toiind box cr fnoney." ? The
matter of the disappearance pf the box and
money was confined to the knowledge of a
few, and the Sheriff with three others set
out to hunt up a clue to the tobbery.
These four were employed all night Satur
day night in watching and patrolling the
streets hunting for evidence in regard to
the theft, but tailed, we are sorry to say,
to find sufficient evidence to warrant an
arrest. Early Sunday morning Mr- John
Burkhart, deputy county clerk, repaired to
the SherifTs office on some business.
Upon opening the door he found a slip of
paper upon which was written, in capitals,
the. following : - ' ' ' .,
'MR. RICE YOTJR OLD BOX IS 100
YARDS FROM THE EAST END OF 2
ST. ON THE SALEM ROAD ON THE
RIGHT HAND SIDE IN THE BRUSH
10 FEET FROM A STUMP. CK ME
WITH 1,000. - --: ; -
Soon after receiving this slip of paper",
the Sheriff repaired to the spot indicated,
and there, sure euough, was tlie box.
Upon an examination of its contents, the
Sheriff found that none of the papers,
such ns poll tax receipts. Treasurer's re
ceipts, county orders, notes of hand, etc,
had been disturbed ; that about $1,200 in
coin Imd been abstracted, leaving, exactly
$S2S 25 in coin in the box with the papers..
As will be seen by a careful reading of the
note slipped tinder the door of the Sheriff's
office some time during Saturday night,
the thief or thieves calculated that . tlie
money left in the box, together with the
three or four hundred dollars In county
orders, notes, etc., would aggregate about
one thousand dollars, and with the stibltin
est impudence ask to be credited with
that amount. Another singular matter is,
that the Clerk's box. also containing
money, in the same vault, waa not touched.
Why the robbers left any riioney 111 the
box taken is a mis tery and of course ex
cites the most intense curiosity. The thief,
is certainly an adept at the business, a first'
class meKiber -tlM pmSesslon 5; and as he
oongeu tne aueriu m giving turn , me
necessary Information whereby he found
the box. money and papers, will he not
prove himself 7 still ' fnrther entitled to
notoriety by giving this public his reasons
for not - going through " the Cleik's
money, and for leaving the $328 25 in
coin in the box when he might just as well
had the entire amount ? So bold a robbery
has never before been recorded, in this
bailiwick.
Hand CRUShED. This morning a little
eight year old son of Mr. David Williams,
who resides about three miles from this
city, while helping his father about a
header, had the misfortune .to get his left
hand caught between some of the cog

The, first finger was torn pretty badly,
while tlie second finger was pretty nearly
denuded of flesh. The third fincer escaned.

- Yesterday afternoon Mr. Hoff (or
IIongh),rcsiding five or six miles from this
city, came iu and reported that bis resi
dence bad been entered in broad daylight,
during the day. and robbed of clothing,
etc., to a considerable amount. . -His ac
count of. the robbery- was substantially as
follo ws : : Himself aud family were absent,
visiting, probably some distance away.
On his way home immediately after dinner,
he was informed by a neighbor that during
the : morning two - men, strangers, had
called at bis residence, and remained some
little time. 'Upon receiving this informa
tion, Mr. Hoft" - hurried home. finding,
upon bis arrival, that the story was but tx
true; that the robbers bad entered tlie
house, which they had thoroughly ransack
ed, and when they left carried away all
his "good .clothes." Mr. H. could net tell
the exact amount of bis loss, . for, as soon
as he became assured of the fact ot the
robbery, he hastened to this city to obtain
a warrant for the arrest of the robbers, not
stopping long euough to ascertain the de
tails. He thinks, however, his loss will
amount to at least $35 in the clothing
taken. A neighbor saw, dnring the after
noon, two men emerge from tlie brush.
dressed in clothing which he recognized as
belonging to Mr. H. Mr: II.,: upon Li3
arrival in the city, sought the office of our
County tJ,rwlr'.THtKly,e ad nripl'eclfii
a WTit to enable mm to nave trie two
rascals arrested, but the J udge refusetl, for
some reason, to grant his request. . Upon
the advice of friends, he then sought the
office ot Judge Haunon, J. P but found.
on enquiry, that he was absent from the
city. These are tlie lads in the matter as
narrated to us. Thieves and robbers are
prowling over the country in every direc-
tlon, and it will be a matter of wise pre
caution if our citizens generally will pi o-
vlde tbemscives with the necessary "tools
to settle with such scamps whenever caught

Price and John Althouse are preparing to
start on a trip to Stein Mountain, on a
prospecting expedition. It will be re
membered that a number of years ago,
members of an emigrant train, en route for
uregon, wtuie camping somewnere in mat
vicinity, found nuggets of pure gold near
the banks of a little stream, toe pieces
found being so pure that they were ham,
mered out on a wagon tyre. The emi-
f; rants were an unsophisticated set (accord
ug to the story or tradition), aod had no
idea what a rich "find" they bad alighted
upon, probably not dreaming - that : the
. metal was gold, and did not mark the spot
so that it could again be -easily identified ,
an oversight, an utter and reckless disre
gard ot the wishes and interests of the
people of the Pacific coast which has caused
the expenditure of uutold treasure, mid-
night thought and eager, wearrisotue search
extending through all those ytiars. -If our
friends are really going iu search of this I
rich spot, we know of no one more likely i
to find it, and no matter whether this- be
the object of their trip or not, we heartily
wish them a'pleasant and profitable trip. 1

Rises to Explain. On last evening,"
after the isstie of the Daily Reoister,'
Judge Tandy met us at' the Jewelry store ,
of Messrs. iTitos Bros when be gave na
the reason ; why he, did not issue a writ, ,
Upon.' the v demand of Mr; Hoff, for the
arrest of1 the. supposed robbers of his prein-.
lses on Tilesday. Substantially his reasons
for not issuing the writ were : : Hoff could
not swear that the parties under suspicion
had entered his house at all. and did not
claim that any one had seen parties wear
ing clothing - which they recognized aa
HofTa. His only grounds for asking for :
writ was that he, saw two "tramps" 011
foot pass along the road, aud as they looked
like. rouglM- he-thought they were the
thieves. His residence is some distance,
from the road, and as 1 did not profess tc(
have any evideno that these two men had
Aven left thehigH road,the Judge did not ,
feel c&Ifcd 'po to issue hia writ. Our '
readers will readiiyaee the dillerence In
the two staterrtants. We gave the first
statement as we received it, so, in justice -to
Judge Tandy, we give the substance of '
his statement. -We here disclaim any In
tention to injure Judge Tandy in any way;
We have no- animosity or feeling of any,
kind against him, - We., simply wish to.
give the whole truth in. all matters which
are of local interest, and no rriore.
