ANOTHER DARING ROBBERY,

PAWN SHOP VICTIMISED.

It almost gives us the writers' eramp to record the daring escapades of our Chinese robbers. The latter are certainly making. things hura now. They are fill- ing up the vacuum. There is no longer the Constitutional Reform meetings to give citizens the jumps, so our Celestial friends have kindly consented to fill the bill for the time being with various "star" items.

There was a small entertain- meat last night at's pawn shop in 33. Irving Street. At 8 o'clock when the shop was being closed men six armed with revolvers and one with 3 dagger, rushed into the shop.

For those who are not good math- ematicians we may add that the total is $206. Thus was the montony in a pawn shop broken last night. Any arrests?— Sad to say, the robbers escaped.
