Of it's size, has been sectioned. Miss
Boggs retains one division, while Miss
Rogers, Of the departmental schools,
takes the other. Miss Vail, OF the grad

for Miss Rogers. The number OF classes
in the high school made it impossible for
the present corps of high school teachers
10 teach them all
The senior class has lost two OF its
members. Miss Lillian Sweet and Mr..
George Sweet left today for Owosso. We
are sorry 10 lose them, but our loss Is
Ogosso's gam.

Professional Burglars
Are Now Heading This
Way From the
South.
Two Stores Entered Last Night
They Drill Holes m a safe. Nut Did
Not Succeed in Opening 1t
other News.

Many people appeared To think the burg
scare, but when the clerks entered He'd
ding's store at South Lake Linden this
morning they came 10 a different con.
clusion, for they found that during the
night burglars had been at work and
had drilled two holes INTO the safe; but
it would look as il the people engaged IN
the business were amateurs, otherwise
they most probably would have drilled
the holes where they would do the most
good and accomplish their object, but as
we understand il, they drilled into some
papers and consequently were not able
to run the powder to the place they
wanted il 10 reach. As the drill aud
powder were left on the top OF the safe II
would look as il the burglars, whoever
they were, had been disturbed or fright
ened and had made hasty retreat, as il
there was time. no professional burglars
would have been likely 10 leave their
tools behind them, neither would they
have drilled the holes where they did.
The men appear 10 have gained an en-
trance through a window in the rear OF
the store. So far, Mr.. Redding has
only missed two suits OF clothes from his
stock
This. together with the second attempt
at the Dollar Bay store, which took
place last night, shows that we have
some persons in the neighborhood who
are not too honest, whether they are
professionals or only amateurs is not OF
much consequence, but as they say that
an ounce of prevention is much better
than pound of cure, it behooves our
business men TO see that their valuables
are kept in a safe place alter the close Of
business hours, particularly as it is

say that not even il McKinly is elected
