SCARED HIM Last Saturday night about eleven o'clock an attempt was made by two well known characters alicut our town to hold up a young man who hails from near Monroe, and who gave his name in to the police as being Samuel Smith. The attempted hold up was perpetrated near the residence of Clark Coverdale on First street. Thel’three men had been drinking a little and by some pretense or other, the two crooks enticed Smith to go with them, when they got him to First street, they began to go through his jackets, which formality Smith objected to and lustily yelled for help, at the same time pulling away from the two men and running down the alley in the rear of the Burt House, where he was found by the night police. Smith begged so hard for protection that they placed him in jail for safe keeping until morning when he was turned loose, Smith had forty nine dollars on his person; but did not loose a cent in the scuffle. He states that he is unable to identify either one of the men, but suspicion points strongly to two Decatur toughs who i were early in the evening seen in Smith’s company. Will Cordua, proprietor of the ’ Nickle Plate saloon is the proud I' possessor of a big bouncing boy, I which made its appearance at his ! home Saturday. A number of drunken toughs enI gaged in a free for all fight at noon I today near the Burt House, in i which several of them were badly * beaten up. All however, escaped : across the river before the police i appeared on the scene. ”Mesdames | Allison, Jane Crabs and Katherine ' Champer were the guests of Mr. i and Mrs. Frank McConnel near ■ Monmouth Sunday. The diuner was sumptuous and the menu included, chicken and goose. Ade- : lightful time is the verdict of the ! ladies. Charles Fuhrman and sister, Elsie i and Mrs. Martha Dutcher returned ■ Friday morning from a two weeks’ visit with relatives in Guernsey [ county, O. This county is very hilly and is not adapted to farming, but ; coal mining, grazing and fruit growing are the chief industries. Charles says he would not take a , farm in that county and farm it I himself. Franklin Beavers, of Columbus, | Ohio, returned Imine this morning, J after a three weeks visit with his I brother Samuel Bcvers und other ! relatives in this county, including I his nephew, Dr. 8. D. Bcvers and ! family of this city. Mr. Boavers is a staunch old democrat, having | oast hiis first vote for James Buchannan. He is seventy years old and was well pleased with Adams county.
