FRUITLESS HOLD-UP
INCIDENT IN SYDNEY A CASHIER'S EXPERIENCE (Received April 9, noon.) SYDNEY, April 9. A hold-up occurred in the city last night. With a revolver levelled at her head, Miss Birtles, cashier at a theatre, was forced to stand against the wall while a man searched fruitlessly for the night's takings. A few minutes previously Miss Birtles had locked away £2OO. After ransacking drawers, the robber dashed from the theatre, and was soon lost in the crowd.
