Description
The depot of the DSS&A at Humboldt was burglariously entered Tuesday night and the mony drawer and ticket case rifled. A few tickets were taken and no money, there being none in the drawer. The knob of the safe belonging to the American Express Company was broken off, through no furthur attempt seems to have been made to open it. The safe contained $500.00. The burglar left some portion of his clothing and the dimensions of a peculair foot in the snow at the window, which is throught will lead to his arrest.
