One of the most daring robberies of recent years, and one equaled only by the Torian robbery one week ago, was committed at the bordillo kept by Maud Bell, on West Court street terday morning about 4:50 jock.

He stuck a big pistol in close prox- imity to her head to enforce his de- sire. He then compelled her to get up. unlock a drawer, aod give him $10 she had there. He also took a $45 diamond ring, but missed getting one th $150 by the prompt action of his victim, who dropped the ring to the floor, unperceived by the rob- ber. He then warned her to give no alarm, and proceeded to the rooms of two of the inmates, and demandea their money, but failing to get any made them take off their rings, He looked dver them and decided he did not want any of them and gave them back.
