It is believed that the bur glars watched the theatre until after the bookkeeper had locked up for the night and then entered the theatre by forcing the doors with a pick they had stolen from the O-W. R. & N. car house ahere. The safe is lodged in a small room and it was easy for the yeggmen to blow it without attracting attention. How ever, to avoid all risk, they tore down the heavy plush curtains in' the theatre and soaked them with water before- packing the door of the safe with them. The explosion not only tore off ths big safe door but snapped the heavy steel frame and sent a shower of scrap metal through the door and walls. The plush curtains were riddled with holes and parts of them were found in a neigh boring room. Several residents heard the blast but attributed it to work oh the loop road, where blasting continues day and night. : The thieves obtained about $400 : in silver, but in their hurry to escape over looked two leather wallets containing several hundreds of dollars in currency. The theatre Si insured against loss by burglary and" is fully covered. Germany Pays Allies On Separations Bill Paris. May 15. U. P.

The suit was brought by Eugene T, Johnston and others in behalf of North Carolina child workers ajrainst the Ath- erton Mills of Charlotte, the government backing the mills in the effort to have the law upheld. ! - When the mill threatened to discharge Johnston's 'two small sons because the product' of their labors wete taxed,' he obtained an injunction from the federal court on the ground that the tax was unconstitutional. !
