BARTENDER SMITH'S HAT.
'Twas an Odd Style of lleodxear and
It Led lo the Identification of
Two Burglars.
Sometime between closing hour and
daylight yesterday morning, Frank
Robin's saloon, ii:!0 Lackawanna ave
nue, was robbed, the thieves taking
$ti nnd a new hat. The latter nrtl.ie
belonged to the bartender, Frank
Smith, nnd was a hat of the kind
"once seen, never to be forgotten."
At !)..'!0 o'clock yesterday morning two
local tramps, John Rurke nnd Sllclnvi
Caddeii, were arrested for being drunk
and begging the wherewith to grt
drunker, one of them, Rurke. woio
a hat that was altogether out of keep
ing with his i-carocrow clothes. Re
sides being a new hut, it was of the
"once sien, never to be forgotten''
kind.
A driver for Proprietor Renin was
nearby when Rurke and Cndden were
picked up by the police on Lackawan
na avenue. He saw and recognized
I'.artcnder Smith's new nnd ndd-lool;-
ing hat and forthwith told Smith. The
latter went to the police station, ree
Denized his hat and, what's more, ree
ognlzed the wearer as one of the crowd
that was in Renin's place late Satur
day night. Rurke said "a buck guv It
to me," but the police were unkind
enough to doubt his story und hold him
and his pal on suspicion of the rob.
bery.
Rartender Smith's theory of the rob
bery Is that the thieves secreted them
selves in the cellar during the rusa
Saturday night and when the place
was closed up, came up from 'their
hiding place and did the work. He
says he noticed, when locking up, th
the lock on one of the Inner
lead
ing to the cilnrh .d ""'i'
with tb-' " not 1,0 locked. He
.u little herd to il, thinking it had
been done during the day by accident.
He Is now satisfied that the thlevci
when descending to the cellar broke
the lock so as to facilitate their get
ting back.
The thieves took the cash register
out to the railroad track In the rear
and after breaking It open and pf kit
ing Its contents a little over six dol
larsthrew It back into the cellar
through the window which they un
fastened to make their exit.
ONE DEAD, THE OTHER DYING.
Two Men Uoustcd by nn Explosion of

Patrick Long, of Trie
In Johnson's No. 1 shaft, was so fear
fully burned by nn explosion of gas
that ho died Saturdav mornlne. liu
laborer, John Haumbneh, was so badly
burned, too, that his recovery is in
doubt.
They were moving a truck from ih

they returned nt 1 o'clock, ilwv n,t ...

volume of the deadly fluid that the ex
