BURGLARS SEE
A Big e sign
MAKE ROPE or HARNESS AND
LET THEMSELVES INTO STORE
AT EAST GRAND FORKS.

East Grand Forks Mimi, Aug. U.s.
BY means Of 'sarness which had been
cut into strips and tied together at
the ends, burglars let themselves
down through the slSylight in the Arne-
son mercantile store early this morn
ing and then, after securing an instru-
ment which answered the purpose of a
jimmy forced their way into the
w. ii. Bird hardware store through an
inner door, rifled the cash register.
stole three revolvers which were loaded
for business before departing. and
made good their escape; s21.70 in cash
was taken from the register,
An inner door between the two store
rooms was forced open by means Of
chisel and the cash register in the Bird
store was given their attention. The
register was neatly rified and S21,70
in cash was taken. Three revolvers
were taken from the show case and
the robbers supplied themselves with
ammunition. Apparently they first at
tempted to load their guns with auto
matte cartridges, and when they found
they wouldn't At threw them upon the
floor in the rear of the store. The
damage done to the cash register
amounts to about $50 and the guns are
probably worth $25 paore.
Twenty Three for Them.
Although no one was present to en-
joy the joke at the time the thieves
surely had one perpetrated upon them
and IL they have any sense of humor
they must have realized it, In the rear
of the store there is an office desk con-
tanning an apartment in which empty
money bags are kept. The door of this
compartment was opened by the rob-
beers and the stack of money bags
pulled from within. The bags were
empty and In closing the door again
large calendar bearing the single date
''23" was brought prominently into
view. From all appearances the men
threw down the money bags upon the
floor in disgust.
1t seems strange that no one saw the
men at work, for while rifiing the cash
register they worked between an cleo
trio light in the rear Of the store and
the front windows. The light was still
burning when Mr.. Bird arrived at the
store this morning.
Although no one has yet been taken
In by the police, there are several fell
lows who have been lettering about the
city during the past few days upon
whom suspicion now rests, and arrests
are likely to follow at any time.
