Ind., April 16 —(U.R)—While 1,000 patrons watched a movie at the Rivola theatre here, two unmasked bandits entered the office of the building and escaped with $5,000 in cash. The bandits forced Harvey Arlington, manager to hand them the money They then bound him and locked the door to his office, before fleeing in an automobile. The $5,000 represented Sunday’s receipts of both the Rivoli and Strand theaters. Arlington is the manager of both shows. The Strand receipts had brought to him only half hour before the robbery. Arlington sounded the alarm when, fifteen minutes after being bound, he freed himself from the gag in mouth and an usher heard his shouts. An automobile was stolen form its parking place near the Rivoli at about the time of the holdup and police believed the bandits escaped in this car. o— Polyandry in Tibet The highest type of polyandry is found in Tibet and in this case there Is a close approach to the essential elements of the modern family.

INDIANA BOOTS OIL PRODDCTION i Indianapolis. April 16— (U.R>-Indiana produced 159,000 barrels of oil during January and February of this year—--25,000 barrels more than was produced in the state during the samg period of 1927. according to the Geological division of the State Department of Conservation. The increased production in southwestern Indiana cil fields tended to make up for the weakening production in northwestern fields and was lesponsible for the increase. The pool south of Terre Haute on the Vigo-Sullivan county line, in the southwestern producing area, showed a substantial increase during the first two months of this year, over the coresponding period of last year. This section produced 144,000 barrels in January and February, this year,, compared with 113.0Q0 for the same amount of time in 1927. Northeastern Indiana fields, conservation department officials said, are I slowly declining in production, although small wells are found occasionally, which end to increase the yield temporarily. These fields produced only 15.000 barrels for the first two months of this year , as compared with 21,000 barrels last year. o Hospital Makes Catgut Catgut for surgical ligatures is being made in a London hosp'tal.

25,000 TEXTILE WORKERS STRIKE New Kedicrd, Mass, April 16 (U.R) —Protesting a 10 per cent wage reduction, approximately 25.000 New Bedford textile workers went on strike today. The walkout, affecting 26 mills, climaxed a fruitless eleventh-hour effort to reach a compromise between the New Bedford cotton manufacturers’ association and the New Bedford tex tile council. It was estimated the strik would result in a $600,000 weekly loss of earnings. o Wellington Cat Shy The duke of Wellington, who defeated Napoleon at Waterloo, was afraid of cats, and strangely enough the only other world figure who feared cats as much as he did. was said to be Napoleon himself. These facts were recently pointed out among otb ers showing how great men are the victims sometimes of superstitions uod personal foibles or eccentricities.
