 Burglars broke into the Berlin stock exchange and forced a safe open from which they took $500 marks and five typewrfters.
 At Kreisau, the Inausoleum of Field Marshal Won Moftke was broken open and the silver wreaths and crosses stolen from the sar- copfaagus. The Field Marshafs sword was found broken.
 A band of armed robbers forced their way into the burgomaster' S house at Paaren near Nauen, appro- .priated 50, 900 marks belonging to the village treasury and left the burgo- master tied to a chair.

MRS. ALLIE D. GORDON

At the home of her daughter, Mrs.
Percy w. Crosby. in Unity, Friday, JULY
9th, Mrs. Allie D. Gordon passed to the
higher life, after an illness extending
over period of nearly three years.
Though all was done that possibly could
be to hold her to earth yet awhile longer
by loving daughter and friends, their
efforts were unavailing, for her spirit
yearned to be free from suffering body.
Mrs. Gordon was the daughter of the
late Luther and Lydia Packard Whitney
and was born in Thorndike, March 81,
1843, one of family of six children, only
one of whom survives, Mr.. Gorham
Whitney, an aged brother of Somerville,
Mass. She was united in marriage with
Daniel Gordon, Jr., of Thorndike in 1862
and four children were born to them, only
one of whom survives. They settled near
the village where she lived until her hus-
bands death which occurred in 1906,
when she went to live with her daughter,
where she has since resided. Mrs Gordon
was loved and respected by large circle
held in the highest esteem, for her kindly,
genial nature endeared her to all, and her
memory and influence will live in the
hearts of her many friends, for whom
she always had kind word and pleasant
smile. She will be missed by many but
most of all by the daughter who spared
no time or pains to make her last days as
pleasant and comfortable as possible.
Mrs. Gordon was singer OF more than
ordinary ability and talent from child
hood, and her sweet, clear voice heard
so much in public in the years gone by
has been an inspiration and pleasure to
many. Funeral services were held at the
Rev. William Berriman of Unity officia-
ting. Two beautiful selections, "Beauti-
full Isle of Somewhere" and "We'll Never
Say Goodbye in Heaven" were rendered
by male quartette composed of Messrs.
Chase, Bartlett, Belts and Rev. William
Berriman. A profusion of floral offerings
were everywhere in evidence, including
beautiful pillow of flowers from the
daughter and her husband. Beside the
daughter, Mrs. Belle c. Crosby, six own
nieces and nephews survive, with more
distant relatives and friends. Interment
in the Sayward cemetery, Thorndike.
In a personal note from Waltham,
Mass, Mrs. Annie l.. Mckeen, who was
Manning to spend the summer in East
Belfast, says: "My plans for vacation
were rudely and disappointingly set aside
and am in a private hospital with the
best of care. | must have The Journal
sent to me here to help make amends"
