YEGGMEN BLOW SAFE IN
POST OFFICE At COOK
III 800 Secured by the Robbers Early
Yesterday Morning - Suspicious
Characters Being Sought by Du.
luth Police.

Till tappers blew the safe of the
postoftice at Cook at an early hour
yesterday morning, securing cash
and stamps to the value Of $1,000.
The Cook postoffice is in the rear
of a small general store. O. J. Leid-
ing is postmaster at that point.
1t is thought more than likely the
robbers boarded the south-bou1d
Winnipeg Flyer as it came through
and have made their escape via Du-
luth. AS the result OF a report that
two suspicious looking characters
had dropped of the blind baggage
Of the Flyer at Adolph yesterday
morning the Duluth police force got
busy and have since been securing
the country in that neighborheod,
but so far as known at this time no
clue to the perpetrators of the deed
has been found.
Cook Is located on the Duluth,
Rainy Lake & Winnipeg some thirty
miles north of this city, and It is
presumed the robbers would make
for the nearest big city. In the
blowing of the safe nitro-glycerine
was used, the door being blown CON-
pletely of and the interior of the
store wrecked.

GUST CARLSON DIES

Gust Carlson, a we'll known local
business man, died at st. Luke's hos

ments. His remains were brought
here yesterday by Former Mayor
Hawkinson and D. N. Mckenzie.

CHICAGO DETECTIVE TURNS
ACTOR.

Chicago, May 24-(Special to The
Enterprise. 1.-The fact that Chica-
COS most famous detective, Clifton
r. Woodbridge, is now telling of his
wonderful experiences to the audi
ences Of variety houses is matter of
interest to many who are familiar
with the career of this man, who has
been involved in so much Chicago
police history.
Mr.. Woodbridge lectures in con-
junction with colored slides, which
depict some Of the most sensational
incidents of his life and which are
replete with thrills and excitement.
Personally Mr.. Woodbridge is a quiet,
unassuming man, but when he gets
warmed up to his work he unfolds
tales which garb him in a mysterious
cloak of fascination which harmon
ICES with the events he tells about
and which are recorded as facts in
the annals of the Chicago police de-
partment.
Mr.. Woodbridge is showing at the
Bijou this week.

Considerable CONSERVATION Among
Business Men at the Plans for
the New Building Now Under Con-
structiOn.

The first shovel. Of dirt on the
site for the new postoflce building
at the corner of Wyoming and Maple
was turned on Saturday last by Mrs.
M. H. James, postmistress, and the
work of excavating for the new
building progresses favorably.
With the commencement of actual
work on the new building, however,
came a knowledge to the business
element of Virginia that the new
block was to face Maple street, the
main entrance to the building being
some seventy feet east of the Wy
oming avenue line.
Considering the fact that this will
mean the business man must walk
an extra block for his mail-for the
business houses for the most part
retain their postoffice boxes-the
plans in this respect have awakened
considerable latent sentiment, but
Superintendent johnson, in charge of
the work, asserts that a change in
the plans would probably require a
years time and it is unlikely the
matter will be taken up with the
department looking toward a change.
Virginia has waited for nearly Ave
years since the appropriation was
made for actual construction work
to start, and we do not want to wait
another year.
