BOLD
The residents OF and in the vicinity OF
Second and Chestnut streets were Weakened
from their peaceful slumbers by q loud
explosion ut 2:45 a. M. Upon investiga-
ton it was found that the saloon in the
McCallum & Cloutisr building had been
entered by thieves and the safe blown open.
Thi, was accomplished by boring q hole in
the top of the sale, putting in theexplosive
and applying thu match. IL the burglars
stayed in the room, after firing their charge
they must have recei led shock not to be
forgotten in a life time, az the force Of the
explosion was such that il took the sale
doer off rs clean as il the hinges had been
fled of. The conclusion knocked out the
front Of the bar and broke all but two
lights OF the glass front ofnthe saloon.
A strip of plaster, 2 feet wide, the full
length OF the aroom,was Jared from the
ceiling.
The goods on the eas side shelving Of
McCallum & CIotis RS store were thrown to
the floor. This was what woke the five
men sleeping in this store. Unless the
burglars drank some liquor while drilling
they got nothing, 40 . there was onlyDI5
cents in the sale at the time it WAS blown
open and it is o probable that they had
the nerve to go back after it even il it had
as many hundred dollars.
