ROBBERY Of SAFE
PROVES MYSTERY
Independent Five and Ten
Cent Store BurgIarized-
$1OO Taken.

Mystery surrounds the robbery Of
the Independent five and ten cent
store which was reported TO the
police Friday afternoon. Some time
Thursday night thief or thieves en-
tered the store and worked the COM
bination Of the office safe of the
manager. Peter Banninga, and Sc
cured 500 IL cash.
Tne question perplexng the store
officials is how the man affected an
entrance. A ladder was found lean
ing against a second story window
from the alley between the store
and the Auditorium theatre building
but no finger prints or marks OF
any kind were discovered in the
dust and dirt Of the window sill
There were men in the basement
Of the store all through the night
but they noticed nothing suspicious
until early Friday morning when
they found the back door of the
store standing open. The door has a
night lock and it is believed that the
thief made his getaway through this
entrance. But he could not get in
this way.
Manager Banninga says that ne is
the only one that knows the com
bination of the safe and he is at a
loss to understand who worked the
lock. Every effort is being made by
him and his employees to learn the
identity Of the smooth burglar. The
robber left no clues to work up
on.
Tt was first believed that a man,
who said he came from Muskegon
and who was in Manager Banninga's
office Thursday afternoon. might
have gotten the combination from
a book in tho office. but Mr. Bannin-
ga secuted this theory as highly i'm
