MAIL BOX ROBBER
ARRESTED WHILE TRYING TO
FORCE A LETTER BOX
Gives His Name as John. .Irwin-Was
Neither Drunk Nor Crazy, but
His Actions Are Pecliar

Policeman Williams arrested a man
at II o'clock last night who was trying
to break open a mail box with a rock
The officer was walking along Broad
way, when he noticed someone step out
Of the alleyway in the middle of the
block between First and Second and
walk up to a mail box, which he. began
pounding at. The mans actions had
been very suspicious, and Officer Will
Jams decided to watch him and see what
he intended doing. .st
He pounded away vigorously at the
box, and as the policeman saw that there
was no question as to his intent to break
it open, slipped up cautiously without
attracting attention until he got be-
hind his man. Then he leaped forward
and grabbed him by the arms. The fell
low was taken by surprise and offered
no resistance.
His work, so far as getting into, the
box was concerned was Intellectual The
pounding had been mainly directed at
the staple, but it had not been broken
The prisoner'was marched to the po-
lice station, where he gave his name
as John Irwin. The name Is thought to
De an assumed one. When searcHed a
notebook was found on his person con-
tanning references to a number of books
by well known standard authors. A
card was also found showing that he had
put an advertisement in local paper
asking for a position as coachman.
Irwin, or whatever his name may be,
refused to make any statement what
ever and would not answer any que tions
put to him. The stone which he had used
on the box, which would weigh about six
pounds, wsS brought in to be used as
evidence. The man is of slight build,
with black hair, mustache and goatee,
and was neatly dressed in a black suit
of clothes. When questioned in jail he
still refused to say anything about his
| attempt to break open the box. He
would not tell anything about his folks,
but said that he had lived in Los An
geles for some time and had had great
deal Of trouble of late
The detectives are puzzled al the man S
actions. He was not drunk and they
do not believe that he was crazy, al
though his action in trying to break open

the brilliant work of McGinnis. He
