Last Monday night a young nan who later proved to be Earl Hanke entered the store and asked Postmaster Mercer, who Is also the storekeeper, to sell him some tobacco. While Mercer's back was tiirnit tvn nttiA nun antttreil ths store r and one covered the postmaster and the supposed customer wun a revolver, while the other went through the money drawer and through the pockets of the postmaster.' - The man who made the search went Into the nostofftce deDart ment, but failed to find the cash till.

Although Hanke held up his hands and pretended to be frightened. Mercer noticed that the robbers did not search Mm. Hanke lives at lurelwood, and when he returned home that night he told his brother that he had been held up about one mile from the store snd t and his hat taken from him. The next morning he went out and found his bat. The sheriff and Peputy Bulger ar rested Hanke at his home yesterday and held htm on suspicion. Last evening be confessed that he, "Del" Haywood and Merl West had planned the robbery, he playing the part of pretended customer. He said that West was the man who handled the gun.

He said that he obtained $29 and that Haywood, who has not yet been arrested, got the remainder, except ths 120 given to Hanke. He had spent prac tically all of the money, having cele brated the affair around ths saloons.
