A BURGLARY AT SMYRNA
The POstoflce Broken Into and the
Safe Door Blown Open.
THIEVES MAKE A HAUL OF $500
Part of 1t Was in Money, the
Rest in Stamps.
FOUR MEN ENGAGED IN THE AFFAIR

Special Correspondence OF Gazette and Journal.
Smyrna, April 19.-The Smyrna post
Office was robbed early this morning
and one of the safes almost demolished
by the burglars, who effected an
entrance by prying off the blinds from
back door and breaking the large
window. Explosives were used on the
safe, an old one made in 1857, the door
being shattered. At this writing it is
not known how much Postmaster Me-
gear has lost, as he has been too busy
to take account of the stamps and
money taken, but 1t may amount to
S7G0.
The burglary was the work of several
men. The explosions were heard by
Mrs. Eva Bochenler, who, looking from
her window, saw man near the post
was standing at the -Four Corners, q
night Waterman made an investigation.
The blacksmith shop of J. Wesley
Start was first visited by the robbers,
four in number, who forced the lock
and stole brace and bit and monkey
wrench. From there they went to
Boyer & Co. IS, forcing the door Of the
paint shup and then breaking into the
blacksmith shops, taking a chisel and
screwdriver. Leaving Boyer's the brace
stolen from Starts was dropped in the
lane, where it was found few minutes
| after z o'clock.
Policeman Jones says he saw the man
observed by Mrs. Buchenler later
coming W Main street. The robbery
was bold one, occurring as it did in
the centre of the town, although the
weather conditions were favorable, the
night being bad one. No clue, with
the exception OF the tools stolen from
the blacksmith shops, were left.

A WlLMINGTONIAN'S SUCCESS.

william j. Elliott May BE Retained as
Building Inspector of Manila Under the
Civil Government.
William j. Elliott, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert Z. Elliott of No. 7l3
Adams street., has been appointed build
ing inspector of the city OF Manila,
under the military government which
is now in charge there, and there is a
strong probability of his continuing in
that position after civic government
is established. He has already demon
strated Ills marked ability for the work,
having been in the Office of building
inspector for some time, and has written
to a number of prominent Whining
tonians for letters of recommendation
which are to be used when the civil
authorities assume control.
Although Mr.. Elliott is only about 30
years of age, he has had much expert
| ence. His father is a member of the
firm of Walker g. Elliott, local machin-
| lists, and before entering the gos ern-
mont service the young man was en-
ployed by the firm and was acquainted
with all branches of its work. During
the Spanish war he enlisted in the
regular artillery at Baltimore, Md. /,
and was seut with his battery TO the
Philippines. Shortly after his arrival
there he was assigned to duty in the
| building inspectors department. Sub
sequently he became assistant inspector
and upon the death of tie inspector, a
short time ago, succeeded him. His
rapid advancement is proof of the ap-
probation in which he is held by the
military authorities.
1t is believed by many friends here
that the retention of the young Will
mingtonian in the office of building
inspector in Manila will be beneficial
TO Wilmington manufacturers, who car
thereby more readily keep in touch with
the business interests of Manila.
