committed at the store of E. Gruber
Co on Main street while the floor
above the store was occupied by sew
eral persons, and two watchdogs were
on guard. The robbery was commit
ted some time during the night, but
the hour at which the deed was done
is still a question of doubt. 1t is
entrance to the store through the ce:-
lar as the window in the rear was
protected by wooden shutter They
then took the safe from under the
desk and placed chair with some
books upon it, so that the desk
wouldn't fall; then they made away
with the safe, carrying it for a dis
lance of 400 yards, or past the depot
and up on the bridge just south of it,
Here the burglars tried with crow
bars to burst open the safe, but failed,
and left it standing in the roadway
1t is thought that the approach OF
daylight scared away the burglars
The safe was found by three schoo,
teachers, who notified Mr. Gruber
who went and got the safe and eX-
amined it to see what had been TAX
en-, and was surprised to find that the
contents had not been touched. There
was about $500 in cash and 500
worth of stamps in the safe. After
examining the store it was learned
that about SIS had been taken from
the cash drawer, but nothing else
was missing. The matter was referred
to the constabulary of the town who
are working on the case and who be-
lieve that it was the work of anna
teurs.

times a match for the professional
bruiser, and, although no decision
was given, it is declared that the mil
lionaire had a shade the best Of

The go" aroused the utmost en-
thusiasm, although some of the
