Acting upon this suggestion Mr

ol his safe, as he full confident tliat
should expert burglars enter the store
and (lnd llie safe locked they would
break It open, while an ainatiiur would
siipjioae tho safe to be locked. Mr
liuud was evidently right In his sur
mises, for the burglars hud come pre
pared to break open the safe, having
armed thenoelves with all the neo
essary tools, which they had pro
cured from an adjoiniug blacksmith
shop.
The burglar or burglars uflected an
entrance to the store bv prying open
the Iron t door. Thsy then proceeded
to th safe and optming It took out
$-', all it contained. Of the money
3do was In silver coin. In itren
hacks ami the balance goid coin, lie
sides the money a No .SO black, square
cut coal and a pair of No 8 congress
slioes were taken. The shoes con
tained a horseshoe brand on the solo

The three suspicious looking charac
ters seen last night are suspected of hav
committed the robbery. They belong
to a class of hobos who are traveling
