Galveston, Tex., June *—One of the most: daring holdups on record was enacted at Douglas, the mecca of gam- blers since El Paso closed her 175 gamblinghouses. A lone bandit held up tweniy men and scooped up about $4,000 frem the bankers. Heavily armed and masked the rtobber entered the Brunswick club while the games were in full blast, got a drop on the dealers and players, lined them all up against a wall and filled his sack with ‘cash. A move from one of the players caused the robber to shoot him through the hand. The bandit then shot out the lights, mounted his horse and, followed by a shower of bullets, fled for Mexico. A trail of blood shows that he is wound: ed. A posse of his victims are on hig trail, but he has not been captured yet, Blown to Pleces by Dynamite.
