charity on various pleas. Two of them
claimed to be workmen who bad
been disabled at their trade and were
"trying to make a living as best they
oould," and backed up their statements
by showing bandaged arms. A third
old shoe atriogs. Their appearance
was suspicious and matched the de
scription sent out from Punxsutawnoy
of the men who cracked the safe at
that place Sunday morning. Police
man J. M. King placed them under
arrest and lodged them In the Reynolds
vllle lock-up over night. Tuesday
morning they were examined but the
Punxsutawney people bad not sufficient
evidence to identify thtm positively,
and they were discharged with the
advice to get out of town by the first
train. They did.
An examination of their supposed
Injuries revealed nothing but a few
marks and showed them to be base
impostors.)
