robbed The Beagle State bank Monday.
no arrests have been made and no

received in Topeka this morning was
to the effect that the men had made

Three men entered the bank in the
little town of Beagle, Miami county.
shortly after the institution opened
Monday morning. They ordered the
cashier to throw up his hands and
later locked him in the vault Bonds
and other securities belonging to the
bank and it's patrons had recently been
sent to Kansas City for safe keeping.
Consequently the loot was compare
lively small.
Ali of the loose currency, silver and

that the total loot will not exceed
$4,000. The bank is supposed to have
carried only limited amount of cash.
