Elmer Millar Forced to Give Up
$ IB 7r-Robber Escapes.
Under the shadow of city hall,
within tweuty feet of the city has
tile, and almost under the nose of
the city fathers who were holding
an adjourned session of the council,
Elmer Miller, who ii employed at
Payne Bros, livery, was held up
and robbed of 197 in cold cash by
some footpad who is described by
the victim as ''a small man with a
mask over his face." The hold-up
occurred Wednesday night between
9 and io o'clock, in front of city
hall. The night was as black as
Ink, owing jto the fact that the elec
tric lights were out, a habit that is
becoming chronic. Miller was on
his way home when the hold-up
Cent stuck a gun in his iace and
told him to "shell out," which he
did quickly. Miller could not see
the robber further than he was not
large or tall. It is thought who
ever committed the crime knew that
Miller had the money and thefxxrk
et he carried it In.
One person was arrested yester
day on suspicion, but he proved an
alibi. J
