u foot race between a varsity sprinter

It is stated that the telephone op

of the robbery was received, and It
was nearly 9 o'clock in the morning

Charles C. Parmele, In speaking
of the robbery this afternoon, said
that he believed It now to be the
work of some one working where
there was a quantity of dynamite
stored and where they, would be
handy to the bank. There are sev
