Michaels, U, e Castile-Gainesville road, was held up last Wednesday niRht, as he ff8S returning borne from Castile vil lage, and when near the rosidence of g L . Strivings. Michaels' story is tjiat as he neared tbe Strivings place he picked op some stones to throw ac tbe latter's dog. When near the foot ofthe bill, be noticed a horse hitch ed to a telephone polo and a man standins nearby. On being ordered lo stop, .Michaels let a stone drive at tie fellow and began to run ( A shot from a revolver promptly stopped hini and be was relieved of all the money be had, about a dollar. As the man wore a mask, Michaels was traable to identify him. One story IB that Michaels went to Castile to bor row some money of a man to make a payment of some sort, but the man cot being at home he was unable to secore the loan. This the robber might bave known. It is also stated that Shores' meat market in Castile, which was burned Friday morn, bad also been broken into before the fire was discovered. And Tuesday night, three men wer e caught robbing the hen bonse of Lu ther Robinson, just outside the cor poration of Castile. It would appear from the above tbatCastile is getting to be a bold, bad town since it advanced from a | \quiet retreat\ to a faotory town, j Tbe establishing of a knitting mill in , that villagp must have brought in | some of those \undesirable citizens \ we've heard about. It is sajd that some of tbe older residents are all worked up over tbe matter, and every hen bouse is now seourely locked, every stocking in which their money is boarded is being tied up a little tighter, and in many instances the contents are being brought over here to the Silver Springs National Bank and placed on deposit. Some are al most afraid to have the firemen's convention held there this summer, bat, as far as we're concerned, we'll feol safe in Chief Schornstein's care. .Clean Up Day.
