The employees of the city hall until this
noon supposed there was no one who had the
cheek TO steal from them. They know better
now.
George W. Brnymon, the engineer, is very
much pleased that he can wear his black
beaver overcoat home when his labors are
ended this evening. He came very near be-
ing a subject for commiscration instead of
feIicitation, however. for at l2:45 o'clock this
noon two hard looking chaps walked into the
lower corridor of the city hall and went
toward the northwest corner of the building.
They broke open the door Of small closet OF
the west side OF the elevator WELL lighted
the gas and AZ once began 20 pack up the be-
lonsinus of Mr.. Braymon. The men were

"croolss." When Mr.. Pierce and the detective
arrived at the closet the enterprising thieves
had departed. They took nothing with
