The postoffice at Poultney was broken
into Wednesday night of last week and
$40 10 money and stamps stolen. Mr..
Humphrey, the postmaster, on opening
the office Thursday morning discovered
that some one had entered during the
night by prying up the window on the
west side of the building, and upon fur
ther investigation he found that $40 in
money and about $500 worth of two-cent
stamps were missing. The money order
book had been tempered with and the
postal note book was missing. These
were all kept in the safe, which was
easily opened, as the combination lock
was out of repair and not in use. Moth
ing else was touched. 1t was evidently
the work of professional burglars who
knew their bearings. The stamps taken
were received at the office unordered, be-
ing their allotment of the Columbian
issue.
