his walk toward the Richelieu hotel in
Sixth street where he rooms He has
a faint recollection of the "friend," hav

searched during the night and all Jill
canh was atone. ..
The robber didn't take anything; but
money, liut ne was a aina aoui, evi
dently, and Instead of leaving his vic
tim penniless he returned the two-bit
piece that Bruce had given him to pur
chase a meal. However, the 17 was not
