A social treat was furnished to the Re

Order OF Odd Fellows. The members of
the latter lodge have been planning a sur

after the Rebekahs had heH their initia-

Fovices at Burglary.
Katskee & Belongs store in Albright
was entered by burglars Thursday night
or Friday morning. The intruders were
evidently novices at the game for they
did not succeed in opening the safe. They
took a lot of tobacco and other articles
OF value. They broke open the telephone
toll box and took what little change was
there. They made an attempt TO open the
safe, but failed, although they knocked the
lever off the combination with an ak. It
will require the services of an expert to
open the safe as it stands. The damage
to the safe is reckoned much greater than
the loss Of the money it contained. No
one discovered the breaking Of the store
until morning. The police have only a few
slight clues. 1t is likely that no case will
be made against any suspect.
