I oy and Was Stolen From a Boarding House Last Night This morning Joe Beonint, a Hunganaa, who conducts a board- ing house for his couatrymén at No. 116 East street, had occasion to use a small amount of money. Joe has been in the habit of keep ing his money in a trunk. and when he retired last night the trunk con- greenback, besides clothieg which belonged to his wife and child This morning, however, shortly after be had eaten his breakfast Joe went to the room where he left the trunk in apparent security last night, but to his consternation and dismay, it was missing. He search- ed the house from top to bottom but no trace of it could be found. Joe accomodates eight boarders at his house, and his trunk is used by them as sort of a bank, the men giving their money to Joe for safe keeping and he in tum placing it in the trunk, This morning Mrs, Benint arose first, but says that she did not no- tice anything unusual about the appearance of the house, The back door had been left open dur- ing the night, and in this manner the thieves are presumed to have gained entrance. The robbery was at once report- ed to Chief of Police Walsh this morning and that official weat to work. He telephoned to the offi cers in Sayre and Athens, and also visited the various railroad stations in the three towns, but no trace of the trunk or contents could be found, He procured search wars rants with which to search several houses in the neighborhood of the Beniat house that are under sus- picion. The robbery was a bold one and is evidently the work of parties who had knowledge of the trunk and its contents. Benint is a poor man and can ill afford the loss. PERSONAL MENTION H. L.
