PURSESNATCHERS BUSY.

Rob Mrs. West on Broadway, Near
Fourteenth Street.

Purse snatchers were at work again Saturday night. Mrs. Anna West of 1020 Summit street was passing along Broadway near Fourteenth street not long after dusk when at the rear of a drug store two young men in dark overcoats sprang before her. The purse they snatched from her contained about $2.50 in change. She could give but Little description of the men beyond that they were young and both wore soft hats, one gray and one black.
