We are not of. the clicking" kind
but there are class of people on the
face of our terrestrial sphere who
would make saint kick. These are
the ones who never take it into their
heads to pay for their papers, but let
1t run from year to year and seem to
think paper can be run on cheek.
They should remember that it takes
cash, and lots of it, to defray the run
ming expenses of Il paper, and cash we
must have. If this meets your eye
and you are in arrears come and see us
and pay up. Don't get mad and want
to paralyze somebody because we ask
this of you, but remember we are only
asking our own, which is all we want.
There are few on our list who must
settle at once or they will hear some
thing drop.
Some time during Wednesday night
burglars broke into the depot at this
place. They effected an entrance by
breaking u pane of glass in the window
on the north side of the express office
and loosening the fastenings of the
window. The safe was left unlocked
and the iron cash drawer, which was
empty, was taken out, and it and the
drawer of the ticket office, which was
wrenched out of its place, were found
near the stock yard yesterday Thurs
day morning. No money was left in
the office by the ticket agent, and the
only thing taken was some whiskey
out of keg that was in the freight
room. The tools with which the burg
lars did the job were taken from Robt
IL. Menerey's blacksmith shop and
they were also found with the cash
drawers. 1t is thought to be the work
of some amateur cracksmen.
