n the morning the till of the L. K. restaurant
was broken open and $16 stolen. “Joe,” the
proprietor, the most popular Chinaman in town,
says it was a Chinaman who stole the money,
and it’s an even question that “Old Joe” will
locate the thief and bring him to punishment.
On Tuesday evening Mr. Geo. Cox of Pas-
chal, who when in the city, rooms in the build-
ing opposite the residence of Geo. Carvil, was
aroused a little before midnight by a suspicious
noise, arose and discovered some one trying to
pry up the window. Mr. Cox opened the door,
saw a Mexican and fired a couple of shots at
him without either of them taking effect. There
is nothing like a shot gun in emergencies like
these.
