The Ebensburg Alleghanian. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1865-1871, 1868-09-10

DURdLARY.-A caring attempt 10 Dur-
glariously enter the County Treasrer's
office, on the second floor of the Court
House, was made on Saturday night. The
burglars first attempted to cut through the
wall, but this proved unsuccessful They
then sought ingress by attempting to bore
out panel of the door. Twenty anger
holes were bored in the panel, ten above
and ten below, and one side was cut nearly
through with a knife. At this iuncture
the burglars must have been frightened
away by something, for, though the panel
was nearly cut away, and would readily
have yielded to slight pressure, yet it was
not removed The burglars got only their
labor for their pains Had they succeed
ed in gaining ingress to the room, the
slight impediment of heavy iron safe
would have stood between them and the
realization Of their dreams of pillage.-
And again, if, through some unlikely
chance they had been able to force open
the safe, they would have got very little
money, for the bulk of the county funds is
kept, not in the Treasurer's Office, but on
deposit in banking institution, where the
locks are burglar proof, and where thieves
cannot break through and steal.
