Rubenstein's Store in Smith
Street Suffers Greater Loss
in Two Robbery Attempts
$4,000 LOSS is REPORTED
Lobeps Store, in State Street,
Also Broken Into, But Small
Loss Reported by Proprietor

Two robberies were committed in
this city last night, one resulting in
$4,000 worth of stock being taken
from the haherdashery shop of Sol
at Lobel's stationary and cigar store
at 356 State street, where the loot
was small.
Entrance to the Rubenstein store
was secured by saving out a bar pro-
tecting one OF the rear windows. 1t
is believed when the robbers got in
side that they put out tho light in
the rear of the store and then went
to work, using suit cases to carry
away the plunder, which included
silk shirts. ties and socks.
To get to the rear of the Rubenstein
store, 1t Is necessary to take a round
about route. In the city yard on State
street, there is q gateway that leads to
the yard in the rear of the Rubenstein
store and it is believed that the rob-
bers came up State street, went into
the city yard. and then to the rear of
the store When they came out it is pos
slble that they either came through
the roadway out of the city yard
or perhaps they came out through
the high school grounds, as there are
very few people around State street on
Sunday night.
The buildings In the block on the
tween Hobart and State streets are
Well surrounded. A number of the
places cannot be reached through the
rear at ell. Outside Of taking the
round about way to Rubenst ein'A one
can come through tho alley between
the Royal theatre and Sachs store, or
come through Hobart street.
The WIKI shop which figured in a
sensational robbery of furs sometime
ago, is adjacent to the Rubenstein
store. The yard in the rear of the
Rubenstein store is higher than the
Hoor of the store. Nearing the store.
the ground is brought to the level
of the store. while the windows In
the rear are about on level with the
yard.
Entrance to the Lobel store on
State street was made by using a saw
on the iron bars q larger hack saw
than was used at the Rubenstein
store was used on the State street
job. The saw used In the Lobel rob-
berry was left behind. The estimated
loss at Lobels is said to be about
5000. Revolvers, bullets. toys and a
number of other things were taken at
this place.
AS at Rubenst ems, It Is necessary
TO take round about route to get to
the Lobel store. 1t Is believed that
the robbers In these two cases were
afraid of the police to try anything
open. and took round about routes to
avoid being caught.

GIVE THE MONEY
TO THE LEGION

Last November. the people of Ocal;4
raised sum of money to provide the
Wherewithal to celebrate Armistice
Day. AS everybody remembers, the
day was a great success. And, we are
informed there was some money left
over-we don't know how much. But
it was some hundreds of dollars.
Armistice day was for everybody,
but principally for the ex-service men.
There wouldn't have been any armis-
tice if it hadn't been for the Marion
county boys. and their four million
comrades of the army and navy. The
American Legion post here more than
anything else represents the ex-
service men. If there is any money
left over, it should be given to the
legion.
The legion needs the money for
various things-it often has to help
unfortunate "buddies," and it needs
and should have permanent headquar-
tiers of its own. We've heard that
some members of the committee ad-
vocate using what is left of the fund
for some other celebration. It wasn't
given them for such a purpose. The
proper thing to do with the surplus is
to give their pro rata back to those
who gave it. or turn it over to the
legion. We don't think any of those
who gave expected any of it back, or
want it now. The Star is sure it
doesn't want the fraction of it's
modest contribution. It would rather
the legion had it. "and so say we all, )"
the town would say.
We understand the reason why no
disposition has been made of the
funds is that the chairman has not
been able to call the committee to-
gether Let the chairman collect two
other members and call them a quo
rum, and if said committee gives the
coin to the boys there will be no pro-
test. Ocala has never done half
enough for its ex-service men.
1t isn't healthy for funds like this
to lie idle when there is good work
they can do at once. Committeeman
sometimes die or move away, and
first thing you know that fund will
be like the SNOWFALL Simple Simon
brought in and laid before the fire to
roast. Give it to the legion while it
needs it most.

PICNIC POSTPONED

Romeo, Fla, June %, 1920.
Editor Star: Some of our friends
have been expecting our annual picnic
at Cooter Pond for the fourth of July,
but as this day comes on Sunday, and
as there have been so many picnics
during the recent primary campaign,
so many candidates around that all
the early spring chickens were de-
voured, and the supply of sugar ex-
hausted in making cakes, pies and
other delicacies, aside from the can
ming consumption, we decided to give
the ladies a rest and wait for another
crop of chickens and cheaper sugar,
so that the usual fine spread at our
former picnics may not be diminished,
but rather exceed itself in every re-
spect. We expect to have our picnic
in September, at the same old stand,
the date and program to be announc-
ed later. One topic we hope to have
explained fully is the proposed consti-
tutional bond amendment for state
roads.
Please put this little notice in your
next weekly issue and tell all the
folks to get ready for this event.
Sincerely yours, w. o. Brewer,
Consul Morriston Camp M. w. A.
We all agree, Brother Brewer, that
Cooter Pond has earned a rest. But
you needn't wait till September to
have the proposed amendment ex-
planned. 1t is a proposition to settle
big load of taxation on Florida,
the bulk of which you folks out in the
country will have to bear.

Apparently unable to get relief
from either federal, county or city
officials located in Butte, thousands
of Butte's better citizens have
reached the conclusion that it is up
to them to get together at the meet
ing tonight ard take some decisive
action which will put an end not
only to the efforts to put the city
market out of business, but to also
take action which will put stop to
the boycotting and browbeating OF
the workers and small business men
who will not take their orders from
the mouthpiece of the Associated In
dustries.
One business man interviewed by
a Bulletin reporter this morning, had
this to say:
''1t would appear to me that all
good citizens who have the welfare
of Butte at heart should attend the
meeting at the council chambers to-
night. The present situation is de-
plorable, no one so far as | can see,
being benefittcd except those who
are being paid fat salaries for the
purpose Of establishing the so-called
open shop in Butte, which is respons-
ible for the present chaotic condi-

been ruined by this policy the work
ers are leaving Butte daily by the
hundreds, and it is the community
as whole which is suffering ire
