P. 0. ROBBED
AUTO STOLEN

The New Hope postoffice was
broken into and robbed, and Allen
Opdycke's automobile stolen early
yesterday morning, presumably by
the same persons. About 220 a.
M, Horace T. Shick who lives near
the postoffice, heard explosions, four
in all, ending about 230, but the
sound appeared to come from the
Jersey side of the river, and he
thought the guardsmen were having
some trouble and were firing at
somebody.
The postoffice was entered by way
of the front door, and the safe,
which had not been repaired since
being blown open year or two ago,
was attacked, this time at the inner
doors. Its condition is such that it
has not yet been opened up and
whether the robbers secured any
thing of account is not known.
Mr.. Opdycke's auto was an Over
land touring car, engine No. 81 ,481,
and bore the Pennsylvania license
number 204, 1868. 1t was equipped
with Federal tires, plain in front,
non-skid on rear, and carried an ex-
ira Pullman non-skid tire on the
back. 1t was taken from the gar
age in the rear of Dubs & Opdycke's
store, on South Main street, a hun
dred yards from the postoffice.
