AKRON READY FOR ROBBERS.

Ten Citizens Sleep with Loaded Guns Near Thslr Beds. [Special to The Indianapolis News.) ROCHESTER, Ind., December 11.—If any more bank robbers go to Akron they will meet with more resistance than they did last week, when they wrecked the Exchange Bank safe with four charges of nitroglycerin and terrorized the town by shooting and yelling like Western outlaws. Ten citizens have bought repeating shotguns, have them loaded with buckshot and sleep with the guns by their beds. They have agreed to do this right along, year In and year out, and they are men who can and will shoot. Had there been a shotgun available the night of the robbery, there Is no doubt but at least two of the robbers would have been brought down. They were daring In their stand In the streets, and they could have been approached and shot at short range from behind a dozen different buildings. FOUND SIXTEEN RED EARS.

CHAPTER VI.

They finished cutting on section seventeen during Thorpe's second week. It became necessary to begin on section fourteen, which lay two miles to the east. In that direction the character of the country changed somewhat. The pine there grew thick on Isolated "Islands" of not more than an acre or so In extent—little knolls rising from the level of a marsh. In ordinary conditions nothing would have been easier than to have ploughed roads acrose the fro: eurfac of the ficulth The early part of autumn had been characterized ny a heavy snotv-fall Immediately after a series of mild days. A warm blanket of some thickness thus overlaid the earth, effectually preven.lng the freezing which subsequent cold weather would nave caused. All the season Radway had contended with this condition. Even In the woods, muddy swamp and sprlnghole* caused endless difficulty and necessitated a great deal of "corduroying.” or the laying of poles side by side, to form an artificial bottom. Here six Inches of water and

Left to themselves, probably the men would never have dreamed of objecting to whatever privations the task carried with It. Radway’z anxiety for their comfort, however, caused them finally to Imagine that perhaps they might have some lust grounds for complaint after all. That Is a great trait of the lumber-jack. But Dyer, the scaler, finally caused the outbreak. Dyer was an efficient enough man in his way, but he loved his own ease. His habit was to stay in his bunk of mornings until well after daylight. To this there could be no objection—except on the part of the cook, who was supposed to attend to his business himself—for the scaler was active In his work, when once he began it, and could keep up with the skidding. But now he displayed a strong antipathy to the north wind on the plains. “I don’t pose for no tough son-of-a-gun,” said he to Radway, "and I've got some respect for my ears and feet. She'll warm up a little by to-morrow, and perhaps the wind'll die. I can catch up to you fellows by hustling a little, so I guess I'll stay In and work on the books to-day.” ^ "AU^ right," Radway assented, a little This happened perhaps two days out of the week. Finally Dyer hung out Vi thermometer, which he used to consult. The men saw It and consulted It, too. At once

they felt much colder.

So they sent a delegatloh to Radway.

Big Nolan was the spokesman. Bos»,” said he bluntly, "she's too cold

“I'll see, boys,” said he.

When the breakfast was over the crew was set to making skidways and travoyIng roads on eight. This was a precedent. In time the work on the plains was grumbllngly done In any weather. However, as to this Radway proved firm enough. He was a good fighter when he knew he was

being imposed upon.

And as the days slipped by, he tightened the reins. Christmas was approaching. An ay mathematical computation reduced
