SAFE CRACKERS.
A Burglar-Proof Vault Demolished
By Burglars.
4 GREAT ROBBERY At LIBERTY.
The Cracksmen Use Dynsmite-Take All
the Cash Steal n Horse aud Car
riage and Drive Away to
Kansas City.

LIBERTY, Mo-, Nov. 2S-The First
National bank of this city was burglar
lied about o'clock yesterday morning,
and according to the best information
obtainable a large amount was stolen.
The burglars effected an entrance in
the basement of the building and came
up back stairway. The doors were
opened by skeleton keys The door of
the vault was blown open with dyna-
mite
The money was contained in n chrome
steel safe, inside the vault, of Mosler 81
Baughman make.
The outer door of the safe was blown
off by dynamite and literally smashed
to pieces. 1t was secured by time
lock. Inside the safe was n reserve
vault with a combination lock which
was not opened, although fuse and
dynamite had been inserted in it for
that purpose.
The explosion made two big holes in
the floor of the vault and only lacked Il
few inches of making a hole clear
through the north wall. Bonds bills
and drafts were burned and scattered
all over the vault and office.
The last statement of the bank
showed cash on hand OF about S7.GOs.
A large lot of the finest kind of bur-
glars tools were left in the bank, indi-
eating that they had left in a hurry.
After leaving the bank, the burglars
went to the barn of Joseph Field, in
the west part of town, took his two
horses and four-seated carriage and
drove very rapidly west toward Kansas
City. The carriage was heard crossing
the bridge across Big Shoal creek, five
miles west of town, about a. III.
Leonard Logan and the owner of the
carriage, unaware of the burglary,
started in pursuit early in the morning,
being able to track them on account of
the rain. The team was found few
yards west of the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul railroad bridge, near Ran
dolph. One of the horses was in an
exhausted condition, which probably
caused the robbers to abandon the
team. The men could not be found,
and either crossed to the jackson coun-
ty side or are hiding in the brush.
Four tough looking characters were
seen in town at Zeiss' cafe. They
went into the restaurant about 10
o'clock to get supper, but did not get
it Two of them were grown men and
the other two young fellows about 20
years of age. One of the older men had
on a gray overcoat, and three of them
wore black SLOUGH hats and the other n
light SLOUGH hat.
Sheriff Letton and a posse are nov
looking for the robbers in the vicinity
of Randolph.
Some of the larger tools, crow bars,
etc, were stolen from a blacksmith
shop situated a short distance west
from the bank.
The First National was organized in
1887 and its present officers are Daniel
Hughes, president, and George Ritchcy,
cashier. Witten Mcdonald, of the Mid

is a stakeholder and director.

HOW Iann,e.n Chllaren ave Namei.


In Japan, children are called by the
family name, or ''last'' name, first, and
their given" or Christian, name sec
ond. For instence, if a little japanese
boy were named one of our names, such
as John Farley,or Hugh Miller,or Peter
Smith, he would be called Farley John,
or Miller Hugh, or Smith Peter. When
he learns to lisp his name, it is always
the family name he learns first; so that.
il you were to ask our little America
Japanese boy his name he would say:
Farley" or Miller" or smith"
Later, he would add the other name,
when he had learned TO talk If a little
Japanese boy Is named Sing Foo, you
will probably find that his sisters name
is Sing Fa, and his brothers may be
named Sing Lee. Sing Foy and Sing
aimee, but all are addressed merely as
Sing" instead of by the first" name.

Lone Monerchs OF These Deserted Towns
and Mining Camps.
1t is queer travelling in some parts of
eastern Nevada, where paralysis has
struck the mining camps and nearly OBJ
liberated once hourishing towns Not
infrequently one finds but half-a-dozen
people in a town that once had thou
sands, and very often, in q place that
once had hundreds, one finds but a
single ndividual-a lonely link between
the present and tho past, and generally
gray old hermit, who fingers like a
belated ghost whom sunshine should
have sent back into limbo Yet the
place is invariably mapped and charted
as a town: has government mail ser
vice and its duly accredited postmaster,
and, to the outside world, exists as
palpably as ever. OF course the hermit
is the postmaster, and very frequently
he is some sort of an elective officer be-
sides In the sense that he is monarch
of all he surveys" and that his right
there is none to dispute" he is sort of
Alexander Sell1irk the second; for his
nearest neighbors are the scattered

miles apart, and his immediate society
is that of the Indians who dig in his
garden, when he happens to have one.
Yet he invariably appears to be more
than satisfied with his lot, and appar-
emily would not exchange positions
with the president. With him good
health, good appetite, full cupboard
and a weather-tight cabin discount the
glory of the world. Moreover, he never
lies awake at night to think about his
sins; for the sound of the church-going
bell is something that he heard but
few times in his life, and so long ago
that it is quite like n dream. The
hereafter has neither charms nor ter
rors for him.-Salt Lake Tribune.
