III Someone on Saturday night broke
into the city scales at the, city hall
and secured $3.50 in change, several
lead pencils and a dog license The
money was kept in a small box inside
of the scale. Access to the money had
been gained by prying the scale lock
open with spoon.
Although it is not known who per-

ed to August Wagner, who slept in the

as no trace can now be found of him.
The authorities in surrounding towns
have been notified to be on the look
out for him and the local police ex-
pect to have him back here soon.
