The city was thrown into great ex citement Sunday evening hy the start ling information that a prorulnentcltl srau had been held up and robbed very near the corporate limits. Joe Buhl, a well-known and highly respected citizen of tills place, had occasion on Sunday to visit his hop yardjust north of the paper mill. He had on his per ton, from (he sal of hops and other wise, ?2I0, which was securely placed hi his Inside vest pocket, in an envel ope. About dusk he started toward the city. When he approached the htllc bridge over the canal, through ihe Whksoui place, it was nearly six . 'clock and quite dark.' Not thinking of milia rs and footpads, he was startled by the command of a tall man stand ing on the bridge, to stop, which he did Before he could realize what was the cause of Hi is unusual command, lis was struck ' over the head with a l.-rgeclub. The next thing he knew, h found himself iu the cold waters of 1 lie-canal, where he had some trouble in climbing up the slippery banks. This be finally did and hurried o.i to (ha public road. He reached Bud Thompson's residence near the paper mill, cold and bruised. He then ascer tained that his watch and money were pine. Having obtained an overcoat, lie came inln town and reported his loss. Soon afterward, two boys brought in his watch and hat, which had been picked up by them near the bridge. The marshal with a posse of citizens went to the scene of the robbery and made a careful search for clues, The sheriff came out tbe next day. The officers and citizens are using every means is their power to ferret out the cowardly perpetrators of this bold rob bery. If the parties had. been caught Suuday night, they would have been elevated to tlie top of a telegraph pole. The boldness and brutality of this shows what we may expect, uuless speedy and severe punishment. Ib vis ited upon such offenders. No man's life is safe, if 11 known he has a dollar in bis pocket. Mr. Buhl owes his life today to his good luck. His assailants evidently intended to kill him. Not For Sale. The mu-h talked of question of bonding tlie city to purchase the elec tric light and water plant was brought to rather au abrupt finish last Satur day by Mr. Rawlinga informing the citizens that he would withdraw bis proposition to sell, aud that the plant was now not for sale to the c ty at any price, that he had sold ene-half inter ot to N. H. Allen, the well-known electrician of Albany, and that they would nerealter run Jt. This was quite a surprise to many of ourcltizeUB and it is said some of theni were very sorry as it took all the air out their Bfils. . . - A petition to Governor Pcnnoyer is being circulated in this city and vicln ity, asking that G. F. Russell, the embezzling county school superinten il. nt be pardoned. It is a queer fact I that- the very men who probably oriticizted the outrageous wboltsale pardoning of criminals from the pen itentiary, do not hesitate to sign a petition asking that the practice be continued, A good many of them say that murderers and much worse criminals than Russell have already been pirdoned, and the pardoning mill might as well go on to the bitter end.
