Taxi Inn Again Burglarized

For the third time within the past
three months Taxi Inn, on Alder
street, was broken into and robbed of
merchandise and cash. This time the
robbery occurred on Monday night
and entrance was gained by breaking
the glass in a rear door.
Walter WEIGH, proprietor, said that
at least $500 in cash and merchan-
disc had been taken. He pointed out
that light is always left burning
which should make it easy for anyone
to be seen from the outside. Those
responsible for the robbery, never

sandwich and milk shake before leav-
ing.

Attempted Holdup Last Friday
Evening

An attempted holdup last Friday
night was frustrated when Harry
Miller, the intended victim, gave the

flight of steps, and then called loudly
for help.

masked and carried gun. He grabbed
Mr.. Miller from behind and demanded
his money.
The would-be hold-up artist lost his

wiggle out of his clutches. Mr.. Miller's
calls for help attracted James P.
Treacy and the robber fled to a car
parked nearby and escaped. Authori-
