At o'clock on the morning Of
July 4th two doors were forced
and entrance gained to the post
office by two men carrying a
spotlight. They forced the two
back doors with pinch bars,

inside bolts. One man said IN a
hoarse whisper "This is the
way" and both started across
the carriers room to the mall
room, the door to which was
open and in which stood the big
safe that held the stamps, money
and valuable forms.
DR.. and Mrs. j. S. Dlehl living
in the Grove building adjoining
were awakened by the forcing of
the doors. The Doctor secured
his revolver, stepped out onto his
back porch and saw through the
window the outlines of two men
with a dim light on the inside of
the carriers room. lie fired a
shot-the men stampeded for the
doors they had forced, stepped
out, pulled the outside door shut
and disappeared across the Thorn

men come up on the bridge
across the G. e. o., Canal, and

him if there was a restaurant IN

One of the men then remarked,

They disappeared on the West
