Cassopolis had tremendous sensation early
Saturday morning. The First National Bank
was broken into by Six masked men, who pro-
ceeded to gag and bind two young men who
were sleeping in the building, and then began
operations on the vault, They soon succeeded
in getting charge OF powder in the safe, and
touched it off, The explosion opened the onter
door of the vault and shattered the bank furni-
ture, glass, walls, etc. The sound was heard
by persons living near, and they FASTENED to
investigate, and fortunately arrived in time to
frighten the robbers away. and they left behind
them all the money and very fine assortment
OF burglars tools, some powder, etc. The
query in the Cassopols mind is "who were
they ?" as il is believed they were not utter
strangers in the place.
