PATRONS NOT MOLESTED 4 Two masked bandits, one of them ! so nervous that his revolver shook in his hand, entered the Fox phar- macy, 3423 North Thirtieth street, at 10 o'clock last night, lined up one 5 patron and two clerks and made away with $10 in cash and a check for $1, the night's receipts. Descrip- tions of the men furnished the po- lice tally with the descriptions of the P two highwaymen who Wednesday night held up the Farnam Tunch. hilip Kline, 2108 Chicago avenue, night manager of the pharmacy, was : engaged in making up the cash and had all the money in his hand when the two bandits entered, each with a red handkerchicf tied over the lower portion of his face and each with a gun. Calvin Pace, 3407 (North Twenty- ninth street, a clerk, and Harold Nie- man, 3411 North Thirticth street, a patron, were in the store. Neither was molested. Two Other Holdups. Two other holdups and one burglary ‘were reported to the police shortly after the Fox pharmacy rob- bery. About 12 o'clock two men en- tered the People’s Loding house, 307 ; South Twelfth street, and compelled Anton Webster, night clerk, at the| point of a gun, to put up his hands. He was relieved of $1.95 and his| watch. At about the same time a bandit entered the Palm hotel, 1205 Douglas, | and demanded that Harry Haspe! submit to a “frisk.” He reisisted and was shot in the foot as the robber fled, Haspel is at St. Joseph’s hos-| pital. His condition is not serious. Sunderland Brothers’ machine shop, | 1008 Douglas, was entered by burglars | some time during the night. They knocked' the knob off the safe and pried open several desks, but obtained no money or other valuables. While the officers were working on the Fox drug holdup two robbers en- { tered the People’s lodging house, 307 South Twelfth street, and relieved Anton Welder of $1.95 and his watch, Several nights ago Adam Krack, 5119 South Twenty-sixth street, was robbed of $21 by two men, and Tom Savage, Twerty-fourth and L. streets, of $5 and his watch. In the latter instance the holdups alighted from’a buggy and accomplished the robbery. The Farnam lunch was robbed Wednesday night by bandits, and in every instance the descriptions of the bandits were practically as follows: One man, believed to have done the shooting, aged 38, height six feet, light hair, black overcoat, black hat, weight 200 pounds. Second man, aged about 35, height' five feet seven inches, weight 150 ] pounds, brown sack coat, brown pants, dark hat. e Tired, Aching Muscles Relieved.
