BURGLARS HAVE EASY TIME
For n Long Time Undetected, They
Smash Open Doors and Break Into
Many Safes.
Especial to The MesSenger.)

Greensboro. n. G.. January S.
Thieves and burglars had the most en-
joyable time OF their lives here Satur-
day night between midnight and day

Had it not been for the wachman al

but what. unmolested and undetected,
they would have split every store door
open, even unto that Of the police sta

broken open-With an AK actually, and
the panels of the rear doors of two
stores were smashed to obtain en-
trance.
Greensboro, usually great on novel
and unusual happenings, a strictly
up to the notch in his particular, the
strangest part of it all being that the
safes cracked were not carrying enough
money to pay damages on the ak.
SO far, there is not the slightest
clew to the perpetrators of this daring
series of robberies, and the police are
bestirring themselves to discover the
guilty parties.
The course of the bold marauders
has been traced sufficient to indicate
the following:
The office of Potts & Monroe, on Ashe
street, was first entered n the safe
broke with an ak. No money being
found, they broke into the office of K.
E. Balm. Here they found al old fash
Toned, big key safe. Finding the key
in the door, and nothing but papers
within, they scattered the papers on
the floor locked the safe, and put the
key in their pockets. to signify their
disgust.
Next at the office of the Brooks
Manufacturing Company the AK busted
another safe. and three dollars in ash
WAS ecured.
The big safe of the Richardson Drug
Company, was next banged on With the
Ak. but as it was of a modern burglar
proof metal, the only damage was -
the combination and knobs. which were
smashed out of active service.

lishInent was next broken into and

taken.

performance. and the city feels under
