Cigar Store's
Safe-Gracked
Burglar Takes 9115 From
- Pastime's Strong. Box
Irat Cute Hand
The Pastime cigar store at
121 8onth Commercial, operated
by & B. CaldweU and F. T.
Price: was burglarised of between
tile and $125 in cash early yes
terday morning. The burglar was
believed by Janitor Fted Hoff
man to have . been frightened
away .when he came to work
shortly before S o'clock. !
.Fresh : blood, apparently from
a cut hand sustained by the bur
glar in breaking in through a
rear window, coupled with the
fact that the burglar did not
take another money bag con
taining between $400 and $500,
leade both Hoffman and inves
tigating police to the belief that
the. intruder was at work when
Hoffman entered the Commercial
street door.
i The money was taken' from the
safe after the burglar had work
ed the i combination. Blood was
cn the floor near the safe and
a trail of blood led from the safe
to the rear window some j 50
feet from the safe.
That the burglar was familiar
with the premises was believed
sbown by the facts he jiggled the
pin from iron doors that sep
arate the rear of the building
from the card rom, that he made
use of a ladder kept in the rear
sector to climb up the 8-foot
window, and that he knew the
location of the safe.

finger prints had been obtained
