]. F. Mertz visited his son G. Eugene

fine old gentleman, retired farmer
and lives at the summer resort in Lake
View. Mr.. Mertz informs us that the
@. & N. w. r. r. Co. is at work laying

This rail road runs through his farm
which lies half way between.
Friday morning when A. F. Green
waldt came down to open up his store
and post office as usual he discovered
that some one had entered the store
during the night, blown open the safe
and got away with the contents, some
thing over 500. They also took with
them two shot guns and some pocket
knives. The safe was where Green
waIdt kept all his post office supplies
but it seems that cash was their main
object us there was several dollars
W"th of stamps in sight untouched.
GreenwaIdt received plenty of free ad-
wee how to capture the culprits but he
only cody telegraphed the post office
officials which was promptly answered
to Use every possible means TO capture
the guilty parties. So Greenwaldt set
out by telegraphing the neighboring
towns. Soon the news came from
Manning that two suspicious characters
had been arrested at that place. but
after preliminary trial were unfortu-
nately turned loose, as evidence has
since been produced sufficient to hold
them while at least. Saturday night
a tough bat was arrested in Carroll
who beyond a doubt was connected i'm
some way in this robbery. He ans
wers to the description of a man who
took breakfast in Gray the morning
previous to the robbery and being
searched was found to have a pocket
knife precisely like one that was taken
from the store. Sheriff Jones was
notified Sunday of the arrest at Car
roll and he went up on the Monday
morning train to interview this man
who will probably have trial in Audi
bon before Justice Gray. Itisrumored
that remarks have been made in a
neighboring town that the above rob-
berry was done by residents of Gray.
Thanks you poor vagabond, we will
admit that there are people in Gray
with an unlimited amount of un-
adulterated nerve, but be careful how
you make remarks. One of the sus.
pected robbers slept in school house
the night of the robbery to save ex-
penses but was able take six whiskeys
before breakfast the next morning, a
likely story Never mind. we are soon
to have saloons, then maybe we can
boast of having lived i'm the town
where some certain outlaws were
caught.
