SEGERSTROM AND HAGEN HELD
UP BY BEATTLE THUGS
Messrs Segerstrom and Hagen, the
well known Nome and Seattle jewelry
Btore owners, were the Joint victims
of Seattle holdup men a day or two
before Christmas, according to Seattle
letters received by recent mails. The
partners were attacked in their own
garage one evening after returning
from an auto ride. As t.*ey rode into
the garage and alighted, the. thieves
grabbed them and closed the doors,
meanwhile holding two big guns on a
level with the midsection of the portjy
Segerstrom and the less pulchritudin
ous anatomy of his partner. Both
were compelled to hold up their handp
while the robbers went through their
clothes. Hagen held his hands in such,
position that the thieves could not
see the big diamond worn on one fin
ger and later managed to drop the
ring behind the auto seat while the
thieves were busy with Segerstrom.
They secured a scarf pin and four
dollars and some cents from Hagen
and were going to annex his -masonic
charm but he begged them to spare
that above everything. The thieves
finally consented. From Segerstrom
they obtained a black pearl scarf pth
and some other valuables but he man
aged to save his diamond ring.
Asked as to whether he and Hagen
were scared during the holdup, Seger
strom cheerfully admitted that he
sure was and that Hagen -was "seared
stiff". He claimed, however, that the
rolibera were scared, too, and showed
it plainly.
