They knocked the revolver from his hand and after a tussle bore him te the ground. One of the men held a pistol close te the watchman's head. "Keep quiet and you'll be all right," said tbe bandit. "I3ut if you don't, the fun might go off." Tbe men slowly acked ' away, keeping the watchman covered as they retreated.
