This is all due to the cholera quaran-

SAFE CRACKERS OPEN
OLD STYLE VAULTS
Get Only $12 From One, and
Papers of Little Value From
Other.

Yeggmen tapped two safes Friday
night In the business district OF Salt
Lake. One was at the Union assay Of
flee at 152 South West Temple street
and the other at the blacksmith and car
riage shop OF j. z. Fowler at 81 South
West Temple street From the Union
assay office the thieves took about Sl2
In money and some gold bullion. From
the carriage shop only some papers OF
little value were taken.
In both places the safes were OF an
old-fashioned type and were opened
without much difficulty. The knob OF
the combination in each case was
pounded out and the pin drilled until
the tumblers dropped down. permitting
the door 10 swing free. The method used
is identical with that which was used In
the robbery OF the Brunswick saloon a
week ago.
The work OF the thieves in breaking
into the Fowler safe was labor lost. The
thieves got no money for their pains and,
besides. their work was for naught for
the reason that the safe was unlocked
at the time and all that would have been
necessary would have been 10 open the
door. The thieves apparently. did not
try 10 open the door first Assuming
that IL was locked. they pounded off the
knob OF the dial and drilled through the
connecting pin.

month in 1910. When viewed in pro-
portion TO the natural increase in popu-
laton comparison of the month s
