An undoubted attempt made on Thursday
forenoon, to rob the First National Bank Cashier
Boothby found long ladder resting against the
rear of the building and in close proximity to the
back window. On passing out he found that the
ladder had been taken from an adjacent coal shed
and put up against the building, no one could tell
by whom, though many inquiries were made. A
team was found between the foot Of the ladder
and the building the owner said it was placed
there before the ladder was set up, as he saw
nothing of the ladder. The theory is. that during
the street pageant of the circus the robbers intend
ed to enter the bank, seize their booty, and make
their escape from the rear window, and down the
ladder. But for some reason they did not care to
undertake the job. Several strangers came into
the office in the forenoon, for the purpose of get
ting bills changed.
