Col LaBeer Attacked on City Streets in Night Assault
Col C H LaBeer, a Continental Insurance agent, was set upon by two men near his Maine and Eighteenth streets home about ten o’clock Monday night. One struck his neck from behind, the other crushed his nostrils with a chloroform-soaked sponge. The robbers escaped through an old graveyard after looting him. He crawled to his door, and a physician was summoned. Witness descriptions note two tall, hat-wearing suspects, one with a mustache and dark pants, the other five feet tall with dark whiskers. The editor urges citizens to guard against such criminals and hints at severe punishment. The piece also mentions local building updates and a picnic on Sunset Hill.
