THIEVES GET S70O IN FATHER
 phNIK'S HOUSE Represented Collection Yak en Tn St. Cyril's Church
 Yesterday.

The police are endeavoring today to discover a clue which will lead to the identity of the burglars who last night broke into the residence of Rev. Gaspar Panik, 79 Church street and escaped with $700 in cash, rep resenting yesterdays entire collection in Sts. Cyril and Methodius church.
 Upon the conclusion of yesterdays services, Rev. Panik placed the col lection money in a leather bag, and took it to his own house for safe keeping until today when he intended to deposit it in the bank. When the priest arose this morning he found that burglars had visited the house and made off with the bag and its contents.
 The robbers gained entrance to the house by forcing a rear window. They undoubtedly escaped by the same win dow inasmuch as it was found open this morning. None of the occupants of the house heard any noise last night Detectives are now working on the matter, but so far no clue has been discovered which might assist the police in their search for the thieves.
