CITY OF MEMCo, July ia most re-
markable attempt at robbery was made
the other night at the Soledad de Santa
Cruz Church. 1t is not unusual in this
climate to bury people at very early hours
in the morning; so the priest did not think
it strange when certain funeral was set
at a. H., and permission asked to place
the corpse in the church the night before.
The heavy coffin was taken in and placed
before the altar and the place locked up.
During the night the dogs Of the sacriS-
tan made great noise, and on that indi-
yidual going into the church he saw a
man Jumping off an altar on which stood
one of the images. He called assistance,
but no trace could be found of the in
truder. At last they looked in the coffin,
and there found living thief in place of
a corpse, and in his possession all the
most valuable Jewels OF the church.
