MAKE SMALL HAUL.
Burglars Blow Safe at Braddock
Heights, Near Frederick. Md.

FREDERICK, Nd. August THE
post office, United States Express office
and Zimmerman Bros store at Braddock
Heights Station, on the Frederick rail-
road. was broken into early yesterday
morning and the safe used jointly by the
tenants was dynamited and robbed of SIC
in cash and about $50 in stamps
The contents Of the safe and store were
scattered about. indicating that the bur-
glars were only after cash. The work has
the appearance of that of experienced
cracksmen. 1t is thought to have been
done by the same persons who blew open
the safe in the Emmitsburg post Office
several months ago and stole more than
$500 in stamps and money.
The robbery occurred between / and 2
o clock and the explosion was heard by a
number of persons. Several cars hauling
night freight passed the station. but the
crews saw and heard nothing of the
thieves work. 1t is thought the burglars
had an automobile and were miles away
when the burglary was discovered.
The robbery was discovered when Post
morning for business. He found the safe
door wide open and its contents of papers
and few stamps scattered about the
floor. The store door had been forced
open and a portion of the stock thrown
over the floor.
Since the EmmtSburg robbery Post
master Biser has been keeping most of
his stamps and cash at home. Storekeep-
er Zimmerman also keeps his cash at
home. But for TINS there would have
been a much larger haul.

the Heavenly Father bids us do. We will
talk on divorce.
Divorce. as you doubtless know, is not
The attitude of the church on this grave
subject has been the subject Of much
misunderstanding and unfair criticism.
Many claim the law to be a harsh one
and not in accordance with domestic har-
mony To that / will only say it is bet
ter to have a few suffer than recognize
as proper that which assails the very
bulwark of civilization-the holy banns
of matrimony.
1.-THE church does recognize separation
when couple find their temperaments
are of a conflicting nature and domestic
harmony is not possible between them.
But the church cannot and will not rec
ognize a system that rends the ties which
exist between man and wife.
'.Of the prevalence of divorce in the
United States | have much to say, but
time presses and will not permit. Here
l can only say that l deeply regret the
evil has gained such a strong foothold in
our beautiful country, and hope for the
day when it is no longer dreadful men

Special Correspondence OF The Star.


ALEXANDRIA, Va, August T. 1912
When the franchise for the lease of
Royal street for period of twenty years
came before an adjourned meeting of the
city council last night several property
owners appeared and asked that the COM
pany be compelled to remove it's present
freight station from the southwest corner
Of Prince and Royal streets to some other
location before the franchise was granted.
This appeared to be the principal objec-
ton raised, although other suggestions
for the improvement of three squares in
stead of two on Royal street were made.
Finally. upon the motion of Councilman
Williams, action on the matter was de-
ferred until Tuesday night next, when the
members of the board of aldermen will
be invited for joint session to discuss
the proposition. The action of the alder
men in passing the matter was concurred
in.
Assurances were given by Gardner L.
BoOthe that the freight station would be
moved from it's present location by the
first of the coming year.
For the franchise the railway company
agrees to give $1,000 year, and also to
improve two squares on Royal street
from Prince to Wolfe streets, at a cost
