SAFE WAS
ROBBED
Smooth Work Done By
Burglar at Buie 8 Wal
lace Store

The many petty thefts which have
occurred in chickasha in the past few
months are being succeeded by pro-
fessional burslaries, and that the
thieves are growing exceedingly bold
was plainly shown by the safe rob
SeTy at Buie & Wallace's last night.
The safe, large Mosler, standing
in the front window with electric lights
showing it from the outside, was opan-
ed, s76SS taken, and then closed. So
careful was the thief or thieves TO hide
any signs of his work that the propri-
etors did not know the safe had been
tampered with until they had occasion
to go to the cash drawer this morn
ing.
The thief was either a skilled safe
opener or acquainted with the safe. for
the outer doors of the safe had been
both opened and closed by the combi-
nation. The inner door to the cash
drawer had been drilled open.
The store was entered through a rear
window and in crawling over barrel
of linseed oil, the thief stepped on the
faucet, letting out about $40 worth Of
oil, making the total loss near $117.

Scotchmall named Robert Barker, who
obtained n license lii London in 1871
and erected rotnndu on Leicester
square. He was associated with Rob
ert Fulton. the practical inventor of
the steamboat, who introduced PIANO

to give his attention to the application
of steam 10 boats Thayer raised a
rotunda on the Boulevard Montmartre,
whence comes the name Of the Pas

plans to be drawn up for eight PIANO
ramas, In which his conquests were to
be shown to the Parisians, whom he
always tried TO impress with the mag
nitude Of the achievements in order to
keep them faithful to his star: But
these projects were never realized.
