GLUE POT SAFE
STOLEN THIS MORNING
During the early hours this
morning the Glue Pot, soft drink
parlor and card room, suffered
the loss of its strong-box.
The thieves entered through the
rear of the building, breaking off
the padlock of the ice cream shed,
and then when they were unable
to enter the main building through
that way, pried out the lock from
the main rear door, entering the
card rooms.
The safe was dragged from be
hind the counter and then carried
out the rear door to a waiting ve
hicle on Second Street, apparently
getting away without being seen.
The Glue Pot had closed early
on account of the stormy weather
[ during the evening.
The theft occurred during the
terrific storm which raged most
of the night.
