Master, the .watchman, says that h
heard nn unusual nolne during the
night and no one was seen near the
depot upon whom suspicion could ifi

It is not known how much the ma

pot must have had quite a sum, the
other being emptied a few days apo.
The thieves had knocked the strong
kirks of the machine inside and It was
then easy to jret the money. How the
locks were broken without making any
noise will remain a mystery however.

George Alaxey, of this place, while

his demagogic speech at the hitter place,

Young Men's McKinley ami Hoburt
club, Mr. Mnxey delivered an oration
Inst Monday evening at their hend'iuar
tets. The Hornellsville Daily Times of
Tuesday devoted more thun n column to
the address delivered. In part It said:
"From the moment that Mr. Maxey be
gun his address, the largo audience,
which included ninny of th apostles of
free silver, free trade and the fallacies
of the Chicago platform, were entranced
by the young man's earnestness and by
the. forceful arguments which he pre
sented. At many times the applause
was so great and prolonged that the
speaker was forced to wait for It to
cease before he could proceed. The
masterly manner In which he presented
the Issues of the present campaign,
would do credit to a man many years
his superior in age. His address was
replete with pith und he refuted the few
arguments of Mr. Bryan made in his
prutechnlcnl oration nn Saturday In a
manner which would reflect great honor
to a man many years his senior In years
and experience. After the address Mi
Maxey wns tendered a reception and
supper."

Since we started the Clothing Department Sept.

where if they want to but they don't want to
