working for the company, was broken
into yesterday while the inhabitants
we're at work. 1t is thought the work
was done by tramps and the parties
who did the job managed to get away
with about seventy-five dollars worth
of clothing. The city officials were
notified and all the hoboes in the yards
were searched, but nothing was found.
II is thought that whoever entered the
car saw the men go to work at seven
o'clock. broke into the car shortly at
