several Sundays, been visited by rather
ghos.Iv robbers, who liked fractional cur
.rency.1 The store is usually closed at noon
on Sundays, and all money taken in up to
that hour was left in the till tor Monday 9
change. How the money disappeared was
a mystery which Detectives Pecora and
Ruiz solved. Last Sunday these officers de-
termined to conceal themselves in such
position as to learn the trick, and they
were not kept in suspense very long Three
lads entered by crawling through broken
window in an upper story. and when one OF
them was about to tap the till the otheers
took hand, but the boys resisted and one
Of them escaped. The two who were ar
rested gave their names as G.. S. Lucas and
Jules Macaque.
Tae other lad, brother to Samuel Lucas,
was arrested Yesterday, and the three were
arraigned by Judge Staes, who placed
them under $500 bonds each. The boys
live near the drug store and had to make
dangerous tour over house tops to effect an
entrance. The work would hardly have
been undertaken by Berth, even for big
game.
