The full report of the recent inspec,
ton of Barres fire protection as made
by an engineer of the New England in
surance exchange is published in to-day's
paper so that the people of Barre may
gain a comprehensive idea OF the weak
nesses of the system now operative in
the city II is to be taken for granted
that the report represents the most rig
id demand for improvement along all
lines that can be made. As the citizens
of Barre set about to consider the re-
port they, one and all, will agree that
the general system of protection from
fire, while not by any means poor, yet
stands in need of improvement in some
respects.

STEAL SAFE; Then
OPEN AT LEISURE
Yale Theater at Sapulpa
Burglarized; 500 Real
lied by Yeggs.

A safe, stolen early Monday morn
| ing from the Yale theater at Sapulpa,
was found blown open later by farm
ers along road between Red Fork
and Taneha. The robbers had pro-
cured 500 in cash. but checks for
large amounts were overlooked. Dep
uty Sheriff X. Il. Reynolds of Tulsa
was sent to investigate the matter and
found only 81 cents in cash together
with several bundles OF receipts and
papers.
Reports from Sapulpa declare the
robbers mad to carry the safe across
a stage and down Il couple Of flights
of steps before 1t could be placed
in a waiting automobile and driven
to the point where il had been blown
open with heavy charge of nitro
glycerin. Entrance to the theater
was gained by means of skeleton
key. The safe contained all the money
taken in at the box office Saturday
and Sunday. The theater Is in the
heart of the city.
The safe weighed nearly seven hun
| dred pounds and IL Is believed Two
men engineered the robbery. IL is
said there were six patrolmen on the
street at the time the safe was taken,
but the discovery was not made until
several hours later. Officers sue
ceeded in tracking the men into Tulsa
from the place where the safe was
found, but here all trace of them was
lost
Papers and other articles were
gathered up and are now held at the
office of Sheriff Woolley, but the safe
still lies where II was round.
