How a Northern California
Was Bobbed,
Sheriff
The Crescent City, California,
Record of January 1st contains the
following account of a very bold
rebbery:
The boldest robbery that ever
occurred in this city was perpe
trated at the court house on
Thursday evening, Sheriff Hughes
being the person robbed. The
sheriff, as tax collector, had been
collecting quite a sum of mone'
on the day mentioned, and was de
tained in his office until about G
o'clock in the evening, at that
time he being the only person in
the court house. He had put
about 3,000 in his pocket, put on
his oil-skin coat and buttoned it
up. A sack of silver and gold
that he had received from Smith
river that day, amounting to about
$1,100 was in his hand, being too
large to get in his pockets.
He blew out the lights in his
office, "which is some distance
down the hail on the lower floor
of the court house, and started
toward the front door, which was
a little open and through which
shone in a little light. Arriving at
the stairs leading to the upper
story of the building from each
side of the hall, he saw the glimpse
of a man by the foot of the stairs
on one side, and at the same in
stant his face was deluged by black
pepper and he received a blow in
his stomach from another person
at the loot of the stairs on the op
posite side of the hall.
This completely doubled him up,
and at the same time the sack held
in his hand was snatched. He fell
to the floor, being completely at
the mercy of the robbers, who
made good their escape while he
was in a half conscious condition,
thinking, no doubt, that they had
relieved him of all the receipts of
the day. Sheriff Hughes then
made his way to the treasurer's of
fice with about $3,000 that was
left on his person, still weak and
continually vomiting from the ef
fects of the blow received and the
dose of pepper.
The court house was immediate
ly visited by under sheriff Endert
and special officer Fox and others,
but no clue could be found to the
parties who committed the deci.
Suspicions point to certain parti,,
but no arrests have been made.

-The
sava:
Bismarck's speech has created
general uneasiness on the conti
nental bourses. It is accepted as
a convincing proof that German'
regards war as inevitable and is
resolved to be the first in readiness
for the field. It is a challenge to
France to assume the offensive as
soon as she likes. The tone of
the German press is proof of the
increasing strained relations. The
French press generally treats the
speech as a warning to be pie
pared for a German invasion with
out an hour's delay. In French
military circles the feeling is gen
eral that the French preparations
are not complete, but that France
will be ready to take the field be
fore German.
EXPERIENCE OP AN EX-CHAMPION.
.
Athletes and men who take ordi
nary out-door exercise such as walk
ing, running, bicycle riding, jumping,
swimming, tennis, etc., are often the
subjects of acute troubles. The ex-j
perience of an ex-champion walker,
will be of interest to all who are;
afflicted. Read the following letter :i

An Embarrassed Company.
Deputy United States Marshal,
Chas. W. Frush, has returned
from Empire City, Coos county,
whither he went to serve papers
on James "Webster, secretary of
the Southern Oregon Improve
ment companv. It seems that
William J. Roch and E. D. Man
drel, of the Boston Sale Deposit
company hold 1,300 bonds of 1,
000 each belonging to the South
ern Oregon Improvement company
on which the interest has not
been paid for some time past.
Hence the suit against the corn
pan'. The Southern Oregon Im
provement company havo the
largest mill on the coast at Em
pire City, besides timber land in
large quantities and a vast amount
of other property. It is under
stood that the members of the
company were unable to pull to
gether and this is said to be the
real cause for the financial em
barrassment of the company. The
mammoth mill has been shut down
a good portion of the time since
it was constructed on this ac
count. JSreios.
"Window glass was first made in
the United States at Pittsbunj in
1795, at which time James O'Hara
and Major Isaac Craig established
a factory there. In 1802 Gen.
O'Hara made the first flint-glass.
From that day to the present
Pittsburg has been the center of
this class of manufactures. Of
window-glass factories proper in
in Pittsburg there are twenty-nine
in operation in the city and
suburbs, and one devoted to the
making of plate glass. The total
product of these twenty-nine fur
naces, with their 27G pots, has an
annual value of 3,000,000.
There is money in wood pulp,
judging from the demand. One
mill in Brunswick has hard work
to keep ahead ofcite orders, run
ning night and day, and pulp
made there has gone to Boston
and returned in the shape of news
papers within foty-eight hours.
Ranchmen in the hills of Dako
ta are making preparations for
farming next summer on a much
more extensive scale than they
l.ave heretofore, and should the
season be propitious the crops will

The making of wooden shoes is
still carried on at Clymer, N. Y., a
town which was settled by Hol
landers, and who btill cling to the
customs of the fatherland.

A Clear Complexion.
How can you expect a clear coinpjex
ion when the blood is full of impurities
and the slomach clogged ? The blood
becomes impurc-because the liver does
not act properly and work off the poison
from the svstem, and. the certain results
are blotclies. pimples and eruptions.
Purify the blood with Simmons Liver
