POSTOFFICE ROBBED
SAFE BEING RIFLED
BURGLAR OPERATES SAFELY
AT LAMANDA PARK
Escapes with More Than $500 In
Stamps and Money, Leaving
Practically No CIew

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA. May 23.-Stamps and
money valued at more than $500 were
stolen from small safe In the La
manda Park postoffice last night.
Constable Newell, Postoffice inspect
or Wilson and Deputy Constable Car
penter, who made an investigation to-
day believe there was but one man
at work. They figure out that the bur-
glar secured a sledge hammer and
chisel from a blacksmith shop near
the store and office of Postmaster i.
r. Jordan, climbed through the trans
som of the north entrance to the store,
which is located at Railroad street and
Rose avenue, facing west, and pro-
ceeded to open the safe.
The tools secured were used to break
off the combination, and ntroglycerin
sufficient to break the door into frag-
ments was poured into the crevice. Two
bags of salt were used to deaden the
sound.
About 5000 belonging to the govern
ment, $40 belonging to Postmaster Jor-
dan, and $500 worth of stamps were
taken. The theft was discovered by
Jordan at o'clock this morning when
he opened his store. 1t is believed to
have taken place at about 2 o'clock
a, M, as a noise like that of a door
samming was heard by two women at
that time, while poolroom nearby was
open until IL o'clock. The store closed
at about 9o'clock last night.
From tracks in the road it is thought
that the robber may hive driven to the
store in a carriage. 1t appeaks that
he wore hobnaied boots, but further
than this there is no evidence.
