On the Sunday night the robbery
was effected. the thieves must have
had a couple OF autos backed up Al
the rear in order to carry away the
loot The cushions of the back seat
OF the auto had been thrown out
and left behind. in order to make
room for loading in their loot.
No Waterman Is employed at the
Grocery, as the manager said IL
would hardly pay, but detective In :

western Detective Agency and an :
other 800 by the New Ulm Grocery
company.
Whoever took the Ford Sedan
from the residence of Mrs. Buschers
must have been familiar with the
place, as no forcible entry was
made, but the place was entered
through a door at the side which
was generally left unlocked. That
it was the same parties that robbed
the Grocery house is certain, as the
cushions OF this auto were thrown
out, evidently for the purpose OF
making room for whatever was To

COAL NEAR ALBERT LEA
Discovery Made While Sinking Well
To Drain SIouuh


Albert Lea, May 10.-'Aibert Lea
might become a great coal mining
center" said citizen when he
learned of the discovery Just made
In the Albert Wittmer farm. Section
20, Pickerel Lake township.
While crew OF men were at work
sinking ix-inch well to drain a
large slough on the farm the point
Of the drill at depth OF thirty seven
feet began to bore into something
hard. The head man thought at first
that a soft stone had been struck.
On pulling up the drill it was found
to be covered with chunk Of coal.
The drilling proceeded and for
nine and one half feet the six inch
devise bored through solid coal be-
Tore. 1t broke through into the soft
sand.
Carlton Babbitt, who has visited
the well says that the coal looks like
good quality Of soft coal and burns
with hot fiome.
After going through the vein the
drill encountered other veins Of the
coal all the way down to a depth OF
134 feet. The work of drilling still
continues
Mr.. Babbitt says that he will visit
the farm again and will bring to Al
bert Lea a box of the coal for in =
spection.
Already several have interviewed
Mr.. Wittmer regarding the sinking
Of large shaft to the first vein.
AT various times in the past coal
deposits in FreebC.n county have
been brought to the surface while
boring wells, but so far no vein OF
this great thickness has ever before
been located.
