When John Ashley opened up his
saloon Tuesday morning he found
that his safe had been blown open and
that his cash register was missing.
The safe had contained Sill and a
railroad check payable to VIM. Keel
in for Sc. 30. The cash register con-
tanned only a few dollars in small
change which had been left the We
ming before.
The tools used in blowing" the
safe open were stolen at Henry
Schatz shop. The cash register was
found in 4 box a where the burglars
had broken it open. The register cost
sl75 and is a complete loss. The safe
is also useless. The burglars entered
by taking out a sash from a window
on the west side.
Marshal White went to Morley to
see if he could find any clue. He ar
rested two strangers, but there were
only fifteen dollars in money found on
them. and no evidence of their guilt,
SO they were released. 1t is believed
that the work was done by home
talent.-Newsboy.

Yesterday afternoon just after goiog tc

Office and introduced himself to us az Mr.
Spear, oil Houghton. and said that he
was the individual who was the manager
OF the Houghton Board of Trade and
who intended opening out Board OF

il would be best 10 come himself and ex-
plain that the act we had referred to was
not intended to interfere with such insti.
tutlons as his Board of Trade at which ac-
tual delivery was contemplated.
IL is true that the orders to buy or sell,
as given to the Houghton Board of
Trade by the customer contain the
following note or clause printed on them:
we viii receive no business except with
the understanding that the actual deLv-
cry OF property bought from us or sold to
US is in all cases contemplated and under

L. W. Spear, manager, has printed at the
bottom:
II will receive no business except with
the understanding that the actual deliy-
cry OF property bought from me or
through me or sold to me or through me,
is in all cases contemplated and under

which the selling order reads:

TO make delivery OF said commodity at

circumstances, be losing job for the GUS

Mr.. Spear informed us he made his
money out OF his commissions; such being
the case he could, no doubt, il asked, cas-

a Sewing Machine Agent. rroun,,

L n Sewing Machine Agents TrOubie.
Some people appear TO think il is a
privilege to beat sewing machine
agent and many are the lodges and
games played on that much abused inui-
vidual, but none Of local Importance can
come within some distance of the one a
West Hancock citizen attempted on a
representative OF the Singer sewing ma
chine company. The agent, as is usual,
came out ahead and the present case is
no exception to the rule.
The agent in question had sold ma
chine on easy terms, and payments were
to be made on il monthly. The agent
when the payments were not regularly
made, went TO the house to take posses
sion OF the machine, but the party dis
claimed all knowledge OF the whole tran
saction and the agent was beginning to
think he had been worsted. However.
suspecting the machine was about the
house, he obtained search warrant. which
was placed in the hands OF Deputy Sher-
in Sullivan. The house was searched and
the machine found in sections. One part
was safely locked in a trunk, another hid
under a stairway and still another under
a bed on the upper floor OF the house.
The machine was put together again and
ls still in the possession OF the West Ham
cock man, who paid the balance and set
tied the matter. Ii is needless to saw
that said citizen will not attempt to get
ahead OF the sewing machine man again.
