other 15 minutes at the neighbor's
home, he became suspicious and

,g700 coiiected b? . deputy iu the
TOMoffice, weie .ltv.-osited in the Ore-
g-:i City ba.kj Tuesday. It is "--lieved
that thieves were expecting
to find these funds.
"The discovery was made early Wed
nesday morning by Elmo Eby, a paper
carrier, who notified Chief of Police
T. E. Gault of Gladstone and Mrs. A.
I Parker, postmistress.
The safe was blown through the
partition which holds the individual
mail boxes. Damage to the building
is estimated at $250 and to the boxes
and their contents,' $300. The building
i3 owned by Mrs. Parker.
The robbery is the second attempt
made on the postoffice during the
past three months. Yeggs broke the
safe knob three months ago in an at
tempt to rifle the office and took only
some loose change found in a drawer.
The looting Wednesday morning
was done with the aid of chisels,
punch and sledgehammer stolen from
the Charles Dauchy blacksmith shop
at Parkplace, just across the Clacka
mas river from Gladstone. The tools
were found on the floor of the build
ing and Sheriff Wilson traced their
ownership. The thieves had entered
the blacksmith shop by jimmying the
lock just sufficiently to allow it to
spring. When Dauchy and the sheriff
j entered the building the first time
they did not notice that the lock had
been tampered with and were at a loss
to determine how the tools had been
taken. Subsequent examination show
ed the jimmy marks on the door.
People living near the postoffice
building, which is located in the center
of the town, heard an explosion about
4 o'clock but none got up to investi
gate. ' Postoffice inspectors "from
Portland took over- the investigation
yesterday. '
That the robbery is the work of
practiced yeggs Is the opinion of Sher- j
iff Wilson who finds little relationship
between the affair yesterday morning
and the petty pilfering which has been
going on in Gladstone for the past i
few months.
Town Hoop Squad
Signs First Game
Against N. P. Dents
The Oregon City town team will
open their basket ball season Friday
evening on the O. C. High School gym
floor against the fast North Pacific
Dental College team of Portland. The ,
Tooth Pullers have one of the fastest !
teams in Portland this year.
Though the local boys are going up
against a strong team they feel con
fident of a victory. The locals have
several new men on its team this
year. -
Among new faces to be seen on the
no,,- Fridav are Dr Hausler. formerly
of the Peninsula Athletic club of Port-
land. Hausler played guard on this j
team the year they won imeen oui ui
8jxteen games. James Kaufman, a
tan iaaho boy, will be seen at either
center or forward, being able to hold
down either position. Layton, an O.
A. C. man though kept out of prac
tice, due to illness, will be on deck
and ready to play a first-class game.
Walter Smith, though a new. man at
the game, will develop into a goo:l
player before the season is over. Glenn
Hankins, captain, will be seen direct
ing the team from his old position at
forward. This is the sixth year
Hankins has played on the local town
team. Albert Roake, another old man
at the game is holding down his regu
lar berth at guard and will make the
best of forward play the limit to get
by him.
Ed Godwin, Roake's teammate at
guard, is as shifty as ever and has de
veloped a good shooting eye over his
last year's playing. Clyde Green, the
local's fighting center, is back in the
game again this year. Green has
played center for the town eam sev
eral years, and the best centers find
him a hard boy to outplay.
"Dutch" Kruger,. former all-coast
man from O. A. C., will play his res?u
lar position, forward. Kruger is one
of the fastest men Oregon City has j
ever seen on the basket ball floor. i
THE MEANEST MAN '
The meanest man on record is
said to live in Shrewsbury, Mass. He ;
sold his son-in-law one half of a cow,
and then refused to divide the milk, i
maintaining that he sold only the front j
half. The buyer was also requested
to feed the cow and carry water to her
three times a day. Recently, the cow j
hooked the old man, and now he is!
suing his son-in-law for damages.
In from Hu&bard
of the county coming t Oregon City
