SIGOURNEY ROBBERY
Thieves Make a Big Haul From
Schipfer Bros. Store.

The police department was notified
yesterday that the store of Schipfer
Bros. at Sigourney had been looted of
all the silks and furs in it, some time
during Saturday night, at a loss of
$1,000 to $500.
The burglary was not discovered IN
til late Saturday afternoon, though
apparently committed early Saturday
night. No suspicious characters had
been seen about Sigourney, but it was
apparent from the neatness with which
the job was done that the thieves had
some familiarity with the ground.
They believe that the work was
done by the same gang that has been
doing more or less work all over the
country in the same line and are
known to De composed of Chicago
crooks.
However, a sharp watch is being
kept on the local people who would be
apt to know about such crime If any
one here would know.
Story of the Robbery.
Special to the Herald.
Schipfer Bros. store was robbed
some time between Saturday night and
Sunday morning of $500 worth of silks
and $1700 worth of ladies furs. The
front door was pried open. There is
no clue. They left lots of silks that
ranged in price from SOC down. They
were very particular and took only
high priced silks and furs. There was
$14.00 in the cash register but that
was not disturbed. They were GER
tainly experts and good judges OF
goods. One hundred dollars reward is
offered for their arrest.

were backed into the depot.
Out in the street beyond the depot
marine guard stood at attention In the
rain, that carried the color from their
uniforms as II strcamed from them. In
side the depot grounds two lines of po-
lice made a lane through the street.
AS the prince appeared the marine guard
presented arms.
/; Commander Wainwright, commander
of the academy, formally welcomed the
prince and showed him to a closed car
riage. The depot entrance was canopied,
but the rain dripped through the can
vas.
Local mlitiamen lined the streets from
the depot to the new grounds gate ut the
academy, and despite the driving storm
hundreds OF persons were out to see the
distinguished visitor.
AS the carriage of the prince reached
the grounds the first cannon of salute
of 81 guns sounded.
Prince Faced the Rain.
The prince was driven to canvas
covered stand on the west end of the
grounds and the cadets marched past In
review.
There was little shelter from the rain
In the stand, but the prince faced the
rain and stood at attention as the cadets
came up. Pools of water had formed on
the parade ground and the mud was
ankle deep. When the cadet corps left
the sodden field, the line of their march
was indicated by a score of rubber shoes
| held fast in the mud.
| The visitors were then hurried into
| their carriages and driven through the
army grounds. They visited the cadets
! quarters, the mechanical laboratory and
| also looked over the new buildings that
! are being erected.
! AS they left the parade grounds
! lightning flashed through the sky and
| there was a rumble Of thunder and the
electrical storm seemed to give fresh
| vigor to the rainstorm.
Asks Many Questions.
/, The general inspection OF the academy
buildings were made quite brief on ac-
rcount of the storm and the entire party
FOUND shelter In the house of Supern-
/, tendent Wainwright, where they were
guests at luncheon.
Mrs. Wainwright assisted her hus-
land In receiving and entertaining them.
The prince expressed pleasure at the
opportunity to visit the American naval
! college and thanked Commander VAIN

| In which he had been received.

and showed the keen interest OF naval
man In the discussion OF the subject.

Annapolis Nd, Feb. 2S.-Delugng rain
that was whipped around by gusty wind,
marred the visit of Prince Henry to
Maryland's capital and the United States
naval academy. 1t fell in unceasing tor
rents that ran through the streets In
miniature rivers and converted the
parade ground at the academy into a
bay.
But the naval men and their brother
officers of the German party scorned surs
render to the storm, and with all the mil-
itary finery went through the program
that had been arranged in their honor.
The train bearing Prince Henry made
slow run from Washington. During
the trip Secretary Long, to whom the
ear "Garronne" had been especially as
signed, went to the car Victoria and
called on the prince. Then the party oi'

Telluride, Colo, Feb. 2s.---The mine
buildings and bunkhouse of the Liberty
Bell mine were completely buried under
an avalanche of snow and swept to the
guches, hundreds of feet below at 1880
o'clock this morning.
At this hour az o'clock) 1t is mpos-
sible to ascertain the number OF lives
lost, but 1t Is estimated to be anywhere
from 10 to go. The bunkhouse, which
was crushed like an eggshell by the
mountain of wet and frozen snow as 1t
came tearing down the steep mountain
side, was crowded with miners at the
fatal moment.
A few of these managed, by almost su-
perhuman efforts, to ex,ricate them
selves from among the broken timbers
and dig their way out of the snow.
Many, however, who were not killed out
right, were MANNED into state Of help
lessness and carried down in the awful
maelstrom of debris, snow, earth and ice
to a horrible death in the gulches below.
Bodies Recovered.
At 10 o'clock courier arrived from the
scene of the accident with the news
that many of the bodies had already
been recovered and were being carried
down the mountain sides upon the
shoulders Of those who escaped, to the
morgue at Telluride. or the dead, two
have already been identified. They are:
FRED CLEMMONS, boarding house
keeper.
CHARLES HALL, miner.
Communication with the mine is en-
tirely shut off and until the messengers
who were hastily sent to the mine upon
receipt of the news of the accident, re-
turn, the full details of the awful catas-
trophe will not be known.
The trail leading to the Liberty Bell
mine is fully 81 miles long, and Is one
of the most difficult to ascend In the
entire San Juan country. Especially
hard Is the trail to climb at this season
of the year, when the snow Is deep and
the weather severely cold.
