house of the Metz Banking Co. was
entered by burglers, the safe blown
open and about $2,000 stolen.

number of the citizena were awak
ened by the explosion but the rob
bers had secured their booty, and
were gone, before thev could be
captured. It is believed there were
three of the party and that they
went west towards Fort Scott in a
rubber tired buggy. Tbe tools us
ed were stolen from the Mo. Pac.
